New Delhi: Former US President Richard Nixon described Indian women as “the most unattractive women in the world” and the “most sexless”, claimed US professor Gary J. Bass in an opinion piece Thursday.
In a column for The New York Times, Bass attributed these quotes to a set of newly declassified White House tapes of the US president’s conversations with Henry Kissinger, who was his National Security Advisor (NSA).
Nixon was the 37th US president, serving in office from 1969 to 1974.
The tapes were released by the Richard Nixon Presidential Library and Museum, according to Bass, who is a professor of politics and international relations at Princeton University and has also authored The Blood Telegram: Nixon, Kissinger and a Forgotten Genocide.
The book, which was a Pulitzer Prize finalist, was about the 1971 India-Pakistan war that led to the creation of Bangladesh.
In the tapes, the author claimed, Nixon compared Indian women to Black women and said, “I mean, people say, what about the Black Africans? Well, you can see something, the vitality there, I mean they have a little animallike charm, but God, those Indians, ack, pathetic. Uch.”
Furthermore, on 4 November 1971, Bass noted that when the president was in conversation with then Indian Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, he was heard saying “To me, they turn me off. How the hell do they turn other people on, Henry? Tell me.
“They are repulsive and it’s just easy to be tough with them,” he added.
In another instance, on 12 November 1971, while discussing the India-Pakistan war with Kissinger and his Secretary of State William P. Rogers, Nixon has been quoted as saying, “I don’t know how they reproduce!”

‘Pakistan’s repression in Bangladesh supported by Nixon’
According to Bass, “These new tapes are about one of the grimmest episodes of the Cold War,” referring to the 1971 India-Pakistan war.
“At that time, India tilted heavily toward the Soviet Union while a military dictatorship in Pakistan backed the United States,” he added.
In 1971, Bengali nationalists from then East Pakistan won a democratic election, leading to a “devastating crackdown” on Bengali Pakistanis by the country’s military.
Bass claimed that in a move that was “staunchly supported” by Nixon and Kissinger, the brutal repression by West Pakistan killed countless Bengalis with almost 10 million seeking refuge in India.
In one of the tapes, Bass stated that Kissinger can also be heard calling Indians “a scavenging people” as he blamed them for the mass exodus of Bengali Pakistanis.

screw your opinion and shit like article and yeah comments too.
Indians have their immensely amazing culture which is not based on “ONLY” “sex”, “SEX” and sex, everything isn’t about make out, foreplay, sucking each others ass, move on stories and die in aids and what not. no one wants to live a psychotic life and a life of a male or female whore.
and by the way American Dream is a hellhole and so as their parents relationships and how they take care of their children without education and produce and reproduce with so many. More like a polyglot. That’s not life, That’s being animal-ish and hey mind you we are humans.
What Indian history you actually know about eh? what happened to Indians. Any ideas? and How many women have you ever met huh? What do you know about the gigantic population and things Indians learn from their parents?
Indians don’t leave their parents like Americans at any time and neither the parents leave their children, not even when they are 18. They don’t ask for money either or torture or anything. So, there’s this responsibilities for the children to listen to their parents and for Indians Culture, own people, basic principles matter. There’s nothing like Indians can do anything and everything about this shit you call “SEX” for which you others only live but that’s not only life, LIFE IS VAST LIKE OCEAN AND SEX COMES AT THE END OR LOVE AT LAST SIGHT THAT FUCKING REMAINS AND YOU HAVEN’T SEEN INDIAN WOMEN AND THEIR BEAUTY WHERE YOUR AMERICAN WOMEN LOOK ALL SAME WITH SAME FUNNY HEIGHT, SHAPE, SIZE, HAIR, HAIR COLOUR ETC. SO WOULD LOVE TO SAY COME VISIT INDIA AND DEAL WITH THE POPULATION FIRST BECAUSE INDIANS LET PEOPLE GET A SHELTER HERE NO MATTER WHO YOU ARE WITHOUT VIOLENCE THAT CAN BE SEEN IN ALL AMERICAN MOVIES, SERIES AND UNREALISTIC IMAGINATIVE CREATURES TOO.
Those women are hideous and have bad attitudes
I tend to agree, not entirely but to some extent.
Very few Indian girl’s/ or women are attractive, what ever beauty the have is gone for a SIX, once they get married.
Brother I agree to your and Indian girls also think the same for us they think that very few guys are good looking but many run after girls even who r just average cuz society thinks boys are supposed to get girl and initiate first.
This made me cry this is so…. true Indians sure are ugly.
No wonder Chinese prefer Pakistani brides for their Han men!
He’s not wrong.
I totally agree with Nixon. Indians are habitual liars and extremely racist people. Look at their fucked up caste system and how do they treat their own people. Indians hate white people but all Indians wish to be fair and white. Bloody hypocrites who worship monkeys cows rats and everything around them.
agreed
but northeastern women are kinda pretty
tbh ..the thing you see in videos and all is quite fake , yes there are people like that but the new generation is very open minded, here elders are given the topmost priority and are considered always right, which is so annoying that’s why we don’t object anything we will surely get grounded anyways the new generation is happy with their brown skin. I mean u people have to sunbath and all those treatments to look brown and here we are naturally born brown don’t you think it’s quite amazing. Yes we love animals and we worship them ..we love our god we love every god ,weather its Jesus or allah , we love animals indian’s are quite soft hearted. We not only value human life but every life. I am not disrespecting any religion …we are just so unique. tbh sometimes its sucks ,no freedom or anything but the new generation is still making its way out. Please respect our religion otherwise even we can say harsh words to u people 😊.
thanks!!!

I think he saw Indira Gandhi and generalized the whole set of Indian Women. After all Nixon is like Trump ready to Grab Women by the ………. There are some great global idiots roaming around with money in their Armani suits.
These Greeks are still same today. The ugly looked people, people with disability were used to be killed in those times..and they’re still today like this. They still hate dark complexed people.
The inner power of heart is important than your looks and physical features.
-Lord Krishna is the supreme lord of the Universe whose soul was incarnated in a dark-skinned body of man who let the Mahabharata war which became the greatest war of the world and is still the greatest of all time today.
– Chanakya was ugly but his inner power and intelligence defeated the idiot Greek coward king Alexander.
– Lord jesus was born in Jerusulem and his looks were dark skinned like similar to the people lived there in Jerusulam..
-King Ashoka was ugly looked King where his father didn’t liked him to become a king because of his looks, women didn’t liked him except his caring mother who knew about his inner power….Ashoka’s inner fire established the Gupta empire stronger, The only greatest warrior in the human history who conquered most part of Asia.
– Lord Shiva was not a handsome, good looking yogi..but the most powerful personality in those times.
Believe in your inner god like power than being insecure about your looks and your physical conditions.
Yes all racism sucks and we all do it to some extent. Beauty is subjective and really comes within
Well, at the end of the day, PM Indira Gandhi castrated both Nixon and Kissinger and India had its way. Lest I forget, Gen. Yahya Khan, the alcoholic womaniser and Supremo of Pakistan was castrated and buggered. And his troops became POWs of India.
Allahu Akbar !
Some opine that I misquote,or quote out of context.Pakistani and Chinese diplomats are aware of the Gospels of the Wise – but the hoi polloi are not.
Allow me to present the words of the epitome of intellectual genius,in the American Presidency – His Excellency,Richard Nixon.dindooohindoo
Gospel of Nixon – Chapter 1 Verse 1
Nixon also calls Indians “most sexless”, “nothing” and “pathetic”, according to the newly declassified White House tapes
Nixon says to Kissinger “To me, they turn me off. How the hell do they turn other people on, Henry? Tell me.”
May I present the words of Babar the Great in Babarnama “Hindustan is a place of little charm. There is no beauty in its people, no graceful social intercourse, no poetic talent or understanding, no etiquette, nobility or manliness”
I would request the reader to note the similarity between Babar and Nixon !
Gospel of Nixon – Chapter 1 Verse 2
In November 1971, in the middle of a discussion about India-Pakistan tensions with Kissinger and Secretary of State William Rogers, after Rogers mentioned reprimanding Gandhi, the president blurted, “I don’t know how they reproduce!”
Nixon was right.This is Hanooman describing the UNDERSIZED VIRILE MEMBRANE OF RAMA !
Book V : Sundara Kanda –Chapter 35 of the Valmiki Ramayana,Verse 18
“He is undersized at four places (viz. the neck, membran virile, the back and the shanks)”
Seeta Maiya also doubted Rama’s virility and sexuality !
Book II : Ayodhya Kanda – Book Of Ayodhya – Chapter 30
किम् त्वा अमन्यत वैदेहः पिता मे मिथिला अधिपः | राम जामातरम् प्राप्य स्त्रियम् पुरुष विग्रहम् || २-३०-३
“What my father, the king of Mithila belonging to the country of Videha, think of himself having got as so-in-law you, a woman having the form of a man?”
May I conclude by quoting the Great Henry Kissinger,as under:
Kissinger had said Indians are “superb flatterers” and “are masters at flattery. They are masters at subtle flattery. That’s how they survived 600 years. They suck up — their great skill is to suck up to people in key positions.”
Rama said the same about the Brahmins who were the Diplomats who were dealing with Kissinger and Nixon !
कच्चिन् न लोकायतिकान् ब्राह्मणामः तात सेवसे |
अनर्थ कुशला ह्य् एते बालाः पण्डित मानिनः || २-१००-३८
38. I hope are not honouring the materialistic brahmins, My dear brother! These men are skilled in perverting the mind, ignorant as they are and thinking themselves to be learned.”
धर्म शास्त्रेषु मुख्येषु विद्यमानेषु दुर्बुधाः |
बुद्धिमान् वीक्षिकीम् प्राप्य निरर्थम् प्रवदन्ति ते || २-१००-३९
39. “Reaching to their logical acumen, these men of perverted intellect preach meaninglessly, in the presence of eminent books on righteousness.”
Nixon was an impotant person who could not appreciate beauty.
Important or Impotent or both Mr V.K.Kamboj ?
Maybe he got dumped by an Indian woman.
Indian women are as beautiful, sexy and intelligent as the womankind can be. They don’t need anybody’s certificate.
But to be fair to Nixon, Indian politician(both men and women) are UGLY. Most of them are careless about their physical appearance, they dress shabbily, have unfit bodies and apparently don’t spend any time on personal grooming.
Maybe it’s the whole Gandhian influence on our politics, where looking sharp and well dressed is looked down upon as a materialistic sin, which might offend the poor(voters).
Very true.
True
They’re sexy? Lol. I would agree if u said Northeast women are pretty. But not the rest. (Kashmiri women are pretty too).
And most aren’t pretty.
Is the worth of a woman only by her looks? Indhira gandhi was a strong woman , a talented woman who served for the longest period of time for a woman in the world as a prime minister , it wasn’t her duty to be sexually appealing to a racist and sexist ugly man or anyone. No wonder the USA did not even once have a female PM and in India you don’t get opportunities based on your appearance . to me she was great
The question is who filled Nixon with this. Now it may sound pedantic but his pals in Pakistan and China. Chinese have made Sterotyping a fine art nowadays and is evident in sucess of their diplomacy despite all bark not even heckles raised by US. In a group Chinese will try learn about other cultures but will then state the stereotype and thereby reinforcing it. Western citizen will not complain as they will come out at slightly better side though not where it should be. Any Chinese shortcomings even sucking up is culture thing and given fancy name like keeping the face.
Women in a predominantly feudal society will be motherly stuff. Moral police will not like them to be much romantic. Not Nixon’s cup of tea. It should be considered a badge of honour.
Modi had a good laugh and photo app with Kissinger In his last visit, must he taking how much they hate Indian women, and Modi double down by declaring I shun her on first night and run away and never look back.
But that is what Mughal emperor Baber said about Indian women when he first saw them after conquering parts of India. There must me some truth in it.
There’s a hint of truth there!
Just coz you were born in an ugly looking family doesn’t mean we all are like that.
People say the US must be ashamed of Mr. Trump – the current President. I have always maintained that the US must be ashamed of Mr. Nixon even more. Trump looks harmless compared to him.
A man who simply looked the other way as his dear friend Pakistan perpetrated an egregious genocide in East Pakistan and had the gall to send in his aircraft carrier when India, having no other choice, had to move in to help out the Mukti Bahini.
A toxic man totally devoid of morals and ethics. Its apt that history remembers him for the Watergate scandal. His name will forever live in ignominy. What a ‘legacy’ he has left behind.
Nixon and Kissinger were evil, conniving racists. Nixon was impeached and resigned saying he is not a crook. Kissinger is now stinking in old age and Coronaji will take care of that fat toad.
Nixon was clearly a moron who was punching above his (light) weight. That’s why he has ended up on the scrap heap of history, where he belongs.
Forget the guy, he was an idiot to begin with.
Who cares what Nixon thinks .. or rather thought of Indians. The man was impeached and lived the rest of his life with that shameful badge. A dishonorable man talking nonsensical and highly racist stuff doesn’t deserve front page.
and why ignore the Kissinger as somebody said he is kind of favorite among Indians.
Well he knows- Indians suck it up
they are masters of flattery.
Oh yeah lets make fun of our own SPECIES
Oh hell yeah you piece of trash
YOU WASTE OF SPACE!!!
You know what?
Actually I lost my cool there…
I’m sorry
I understand that some people are born with a low IQ…
(NOTE THE ABOVE IS MEANT FOR NIXON)
Kissie-Nixie were butches deadly against Hindus. Kissinger is haulucaster of Cambodia.
No JEW has ever elected Mccabe edifices of Kissinges Haulucast. Germans had some reason to create a dictator because these were hailasted by Sharky Jaws. Blacks say Black lives matter. All life matter. Today in US EU UK- sharky jaws own everything bescides Chini Jaws
World has Corona Xi and it is the end. World is ion the state of shock-dumbness. People are dying slowly. Get id of Chinese from UN and quarantine frm any world bodies..
I don’t know man. He seems too obsessed with Indian women- I mean who asked him? Maybe it’s his repressed sexual desire for indian women? Bizzare.
Hi aishwarya

She wasn’t supposed to be an eye candy , it wasn’t in her job description and it isn’t in the job description for any woman , bloody hypocrite
