A few people here and there don't add up to much, and a few people shouting again don't frame the policies of the USA. USA works a lot differently and India has a thorough grasp and hold on things.
Post Bush, the US has had a president who was trying his best to woo the chinese, its another thing that the chinese had other ideas, and this president had then given a feeling that US had all but abandoned India, something that was talked about well past the better half of 2010, India and Indians certainly felt cheated. One might term Obama as the biggest and possibly a much needed leveler to the otherwise high on steroids Indo-US relations, good that the indian expectations now remain grounded, unlike in '09 when the behavior of the current administration came across as very rude, if not more, and that was the time, MMS was going ahead full throttle on the Indo-US relations, trying to woo the Obama administration expecting a relationship similar to what had been built under Bush.
Let us go a little further back, and the role played by the US, and UK along with Pakistan in Kashmir is well documented, and by every means hugely condemnable and deplorable for an Indian, much on lines what one has seen recently in the arab streets, just to refresh the memories.
More recently, an incident that relates to last year, they stared issuing travel advisories against India, and all the four, US-UK-Canada-Australia, ganged up, and it was done with a purpose. The MEA took up the matter with Australia, and they quickly backed off.
These are our "friends" we desperately long for!
Point being, let us say the worst happens, so? We have seen their ugliest side when the going was terrible for us, and every effort was then was being made to break apart India, and not so friendly side even when we pushed for very good relations with them. Let us move ahead, and set aside our insecurities. Diplomacy isn't conducted in an insecure atmosphere, be confident about who you are and about your abilities, deal according, and we will end up a lot better. What a bunch of people shout shouldn't even have been up for discussion here, but then as I pointed out, there is definite concerted effort to build the pressure to make us "fall in line", and in all this, the media is just playing its part, and no more.
I am just interested in taking a note on the extent they can push us, and the means used to do the same, which then should be taken as a lesson by the MEA officials, and if their conduct is anything to go by, they indeed have their lessons well learnt.
