I do not agree with you. China & Pakistan are the two bigeest threat of India in this part of the world & these two coutries are hand-in-glove against the future aspiration of India. In the post cold-war era, the best way to counter this threat is through a better alignment of polical tie through a strong Indo-US relationship as there are no fourth powerful country in this region who can be a strategic ally to minimist this risk...Hence, even if India needs to show a proactive approach towards making a strong Indo-US tie up; I do not think that it is wrong...We should be concerned about national interest only not not be governed by the ego whether US has set a deadline for India - Ain't it?
