Pakistan is also friendly with Brazil and China.

Islam is a much bigger threat to the US than India is. It is just a matter of time until Sharia spreads across Pakistan and then who knows who will get their hands on those nukes.

If you consider someone who admitted they used us an ally, OK. Him like the rest of the Islamic world made a fool of our govt.

Former president Pervez Musharraf says the US military aid given to Pakistan during his tenure was used to strengthen defences against India.

Mr Musharraf said he did not care if this diversion of aid angered the US.
“Whoever wishes to be angry, let them be angry, why should we bother? We have to maintain our security, and the Americans should know, and the whole world should know that we won’t compromise our security, and will use the equipment everywhere.”

India is not a stable ally, either. They were with the socialists during the Cold War.

And how many “socialists”,”communists” and “dictatorships” the US have as allies during cold war? I can name quite a few.

Face the fact. ITS US that's not really a stable ally and does not deserve to have one.

So let me get it straight. India was in your perception wasnt a stable ally and they were “socialists” and so US allied with a Islamic dictatorship (which harbors terrorists that want to strike the US) and provides arms and funding to Pakistan to kill Indians and that was all India's fault?
Are you related to Joe Biden by any chance?

Besides US is more socialist then India, try arguing with me on that.

India’s healthcare is government-provided. Not through the national government, but through states nonetheless.

I’m saying that we should play both of them against each other. Pakistan was once our ally. India is for now. FOR NOW.

Dont even bring up the health care, Indian state govt spends less then 10 percent of what US spends, and its gonna get bigger. Beside US has social security, food stamps, unemployment benefits, the biggest forms socialism of we. India has none of these. I can bring up dozens of such examples.

“I’m saying that we should play both of them against each other”
Which obviously US is doing already. India is not your ally anymore. Bush has hosed India and Obama has snubbed her already. You get the ally you deserve.
