I think Vaj's point was actually nicer than the Vedic view of
Westerners as I understand it.  We are not even untouchables who are
in the caste system and can trace their Shaka or Ghotra back to the
original Rishis.  We are what MMY referred to in India as the
"mix-ups" because we have no clear lineage, and would require more
purification because of our low birth.  Vaj's point that such low
lifes can be used at will is not much of a jump.  In the Vedic system
the "unsee-ables", below untouchables, have to ring a bell so people
can avert their eyes as they walked around.  We are below that status
in the Vedic system.  We are out-castes, the lowest humans in the
Vedic system.
