Why have things changed?

I can speak for my understanding of India/Pakistan, not China Korea or Japan : India and Pakistan were once part of the British empire. When they got created as 2 independant nations, it was along religious lines. There is still some animosity on both sides about that, especially amongst the elder generation. There is still mis-trust on both sides amongst the younger generation.

If you take all this into consideration, it is rather simple to understand why US cannot be allys to both countries. Historically, its never happened. Pakistan Airforce has Fxx fighter jets. Indian air force has Migxx jets. Does that help ?
