You can keep saying the BS about India being an ally and all as much as you want but that doesn’t make it so. India is not our ally and will, when the timing is right, throw us under the bus. The challenge will be the 5th column of Indians in the US, like Chinese, that cannot always be trusted to be loyal to the US.
You have obviously not seen how US presidents were received during their visits to India, especially JFK. No other leaders from any other country got such adulation from the masses.
The problem with India was Nehru, the first prime minister. He was obsessed with neutrality and after the British colonialism experience, Indians were naturally suspicious of all Western powers. But now there are millions of Indians who have studied and worked and lived in the US, and when they return, the words spread fast.
I am comfortable developing commerce with India. Not so comfortable with trading with China. No other large country is as deceptive as China.
Same goes for Irish, Italians, Germans, Mexicans, Canadians, and Catholics and Jews, right? They are all a dangerous fifth column here.
Oh, and the British too. Still smarting from the Revolutionary War. Ready to make us part of the U.K at the first opportunity.
