Unlike a civilian government, a military government will have no compunctions in selling their nuclear know-how to other countries. And if pushed to the wall, they almost surely will. Thanks to India, they have that "trump card" now.

I also had sensed that Dipy is either British or an Indian sycophant of the Royal Society, because his writing is quite unlike American

Dipy is trying hard to break in to American Idioms. It takes a lot of cultural exposure, adaptation, reading and personal contact with Americans over a long period of time to learn the intricacies of the American English. . DIPY has a limited exposure. He still thinks like a south Asian. Back in South Asia, two common derogatory remarks made against a person are "Monkey and Idiot" in any of the Indian languages. That is why he is calling us commonly by these two epithets. The other epithets in India, are against Brahmins, Dalits, Sadhus, Muslims, Christians and Hindus etc. If you notice all the epithets, DIPY is using are Indianized epithets, that an American would not know. An American would use epithets in his cultural context. Since DIPY is not an American, his epithets have cultural relevance and connection to India / South Asia
If you read his resume, he talks about his degrees in terms of fahrenheit. This is "sophomoric" in tone, content and meaning and humor. Other sophomoric South Asian - Indian - writings:

Company: No Thanks! Got plenty of it
Occupation: Posterman (An American will never use this word)
Age: Getting older every second
Locality: Planet Earth
College Yes
Degree: 98.6 F

All of the above are strongly Indian / South Asian sophomoric equivalents. These are not the answers from an American, or a British.
