[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To those who are saying India *needs* to support Europe/the West for the greater good and India's own good, I am not really sure you know Indian history.

China annexed and occupied a large part of India in Sino-India war, there's been no condemnation of that from the US or any European country. China's actions in South Asia have been as bad as Russia's actions in the Baltics, but nobody came to India's aid.

And the history gets worse. Pakistan, in trying to invade and occupy Kashmir, blatantly got U.S. support. And when I say U.S. support, I mean actual support -  weapons, aircraft, all types of high-end military gear. (India still kicked Pakistan's ass after all of that, so there's that.)

And in 1971, during the Indo-Pak war, the U.S. literally sent their Naval ships to attack India...and Russia was the only country who intervened.

What the eff has the U.S. done to ever earn India's trust and friendship? They will need to be as blatantly pro-India as they are pro-Israel. They have to openly and unambiguously cut all ties with Pakistan. They have to fund India and arm India. And then maybe a real bond of real trust and real friendship can happen.[/quote]

Indian history...  you throw around a bunch of old history, the most recent of which was 50 years ago, while ignoring all history since then.  You either don't know Indian people, or only an extreme minority of Indians.  Indians view the US very favorably - polling as high as 80% with a favorable view of the US.  And maybe you forgot that compared to the racist, nationalist, Russians, our Vice-President's mother is Indian, born in Madras.  Also, the US is the biggest trade partner that India has, greatly dwarfing China, Russia, UAE, Saudi and others combined.  Your arguments carry little substance or weight.[/quote]
