aptly summarized, our supermen running the show are literally at sea wrt to west. They have to kow tow to west to keep pakistan under check. Looks like we are giving up long term future for short sighted political gains. probably after the russian war is over , India will be the next target.
It is my strong opinion that PM Modi's most significant mistake since mid-2023 has been his decision to engage in an open confrontation with the United States. Much like Indira Gandhi of 1970s - we all know what it led India into politically and economically after that.This stance I think is going to exact a steep price on Modi and his image, his party, and India itself over the next fiveyears. It will ultimately pave the way for a CIA-created party's US backed politician to become the PM and govern India without constraint in complete American interests.Why, then, has India opted for this confrontational approach, rather than playing safe with cooperation and non-confrontation, to maintain government stability and facilitate India's economic and strategic ascent? The government has, after all, successfully implemented reforms, created policies, and put in place the systems and infrastructure over the last decade that have placed India on a trajectory of unprecedented growth over the next decade.
Are we prepared to squander these gains due to the US and its deep state incited problems affecting the country on a daily basis?Manipur, Kashmir, Khalistanis, rioting and protests, sabotage affecting the people (including power, financial, and even nuclear), hit jobs on our companies and markets, incited riots, and induced public unrest - they seem to be doing whatever at will. Their resources are unlimited and their infiltration is irreversible unless India does a China and becomes a dictatorship. Now, unfortunately, even the opposition led by the long anti-US, socialist INC seem to have become subservient to them in their bid to get back into power. The opposition as a whole have become agents of the US.This is not even including other adversaries across the border like Pakistan and China, who meddle inside India weakening the country on their own. And with an instigated war with either, the United States would undoubtedly relish as an opportunity to weaken both India and China simultaneously.I am also not seeing any coherent plan by the current government on tackling the US deep state. They don't even seem to have a media strategy in place, forget a strategic action plan to fight the deep state.India for now has relatively modest stature in the global economy. It has complete lack of influence within the US deep state (A 5x more richer China managed to exert significant control over the deep state and influence over its white men, yet it faces issues!). It's control over world narrative is NIL.
India carries with it the inherent weakness of a democratic system. And India has a cultural aversion to taking risks or punching above one's weight. With all of this above, I believe that this confrontational approach with the sole hyper-power is misguided.Whatever is unfolding at present – including the destabilization of Kashmir and Manipur, scams and sabotage, the Khalistani uprising and Kisan Andolanin Punjab, daily barrages of propaganda from Western media outlets targeting Modi and India, Indians like Nikhil Gupta being arrested by the US and paraded as exhibits, and the anticipated riots, unrest, protests, financial system hacks, and stock market manipulation – all thesedevelopments can be brought under control.And India can be put on the path of unhindered growth and economic development over the next decade with a stable government, lifting the country up to become a $10,000 per capita middle power. Even then, I would think it would be foolish to take on the US, like China is finding out now - Doing it too soon and not following Deng Xiaoping's "Hide your strengths, bide your time".
