After world war II, Japan and Germany did wonders again due to scientific temperament, they were destroyed worse than Indian colonial rule. Japan and in earlier period five forces colonized parts of China. Korea from 1910-45 as Japan colony still developed after world war II due to science. Indeed Nehru (first govt head of free India) put the foundations of scientific thinking in India. Built great institutions and foundations of IIT, BARC. But India capitulated it's advance to religion and tribal mentality. Funny enough even today people like religion based leaders and chosen a government whose head proclaims in a science conference that before England invaded, India invented atomic bomb, aeroplane during ancient time of Lord Ram (a deity) and invitro fertilization during Mahabharata (religious book). India really needs a science revolution who can throw such leaders out and chose at least an educated one who understands science, that's the only way to bring up scientific temperament and progress. This will help avoid attacking neighbors or take religion driven populist changes to divert attention from real issues. I understand racism in Indian context means untouchables, social class hierarchy, killing a person for transporting cows or marrying out of prescribed social order. I am not talking about it.

Japan and Germany were already industrialized countries. Why do you think the Japanese thought they could attack and hopefully hold China. You can blow up the cities and factories but institutionalized knowledge makes it easier to start again, especially when the US gives you bags of money.

  I hope you read history and cost of war those societies paid. Don't undermine the hardwork and scientific temperament of the people who help it to progress and develop. Indeed the same story is replicated by Korea, China. China went through much worse in 1960's cultural revolution when people don't have enough food and whole generation was send to farms not to study, due to unscientific thinking. Also US don't give bags of money to anyone, indeed it needs bags of money from others on the contrary. Please read about debt levels and treasury bonds. USA developed because of its university and scientific temperament. Hopefully it continues as it is good for everyone.

So you're talking about what bunch of politicians say rather than textbooks? Infact India has by far the better textbooks compared to developed countries like US. No one questions Theory of Evolution but many Christian schools and Islamic countries teach students to question this. Similarly abortion, anti-vax etc. Looks like US is suffering from religious-tribalism. I was wrong to assume your were from some Western country and used the word "racism". The right word is Hinduphobia. When India is defending itself from neighboring country which named it's country, constitution based on religion, you are terming this defense as some sort of religious chavunism. Many abhramic religions teach hatred towards polytheistic and idol worshipping religions like Hindusism and call it pagans and what not names. I believe you're indulging into same and spewing a hatred for Hinduism and spreading Hinduphobia disguised as 'religious-tribalism' word.
