The issue isn't "do more" or even relations with the US.
Rather, the issue is that we don't maintain relations based on national interest.
In reality, our relations are based on the interests of individuals or cadres ruling Pakistan, and as a result, no one respects us. The "do more" message isn't for Pakistan, but for specific Pakistanis to get the job done or else they lose their individualized benefits.
Even the US wouldn't insult Pakistan if it meant dealing with rulers who don't give a crap about their own personal interests. It's a different story for people with green cards, property, offshore accounts and businesses on the line.
Anyways, Pakistan should be working towards neutrality and non-alignment. We're a country of 200 million people split across three main regional crossroads. There's no reason for us to 'align' with anyone, be it USA or China.
