,Does the SPA have the spine to deplore the Maobaadi attack in Chautara yesterday - with all the damage in the hospital etc.?

- just coz you have the 12 point understanding does not mean that you cannot criticize their extra-12-point-understanding acts.

Now that the fall of monarchy (whether completely or partial) is inevitable, the important questions are:
Who will face the Maobaadi? Who is brave enough, who is ready, who is willing?

Ready to face Maobaadi re? Once the king disappears from the scene,
Maobaadi will shoot all SPA leaders....and take control of Nepal...

Welcome to new, and hell-like Nepal....will have a combination of several countries: leaders like that of North Korea, hunger like that of Somalia, Civil War like that of Rwanda, and Government like that of Palestine's Hamas.....Great job SPA......you are nurturing a snake....feed 'em well, so it can bite all of you ! PEACE

Well said Knightcrawler. I like your "combination of several countries". It seems to true and not a distant future.

i don't think the maobaadi can take over completely. that is not logistically possible. doomsday scenarios where maobaadi take over everything are exaggerated.

however, that the maobaadi take over is not the only threat. the maobaadi are a threat to a free society as long as they don't put their weapons down. as long as they are armed, our country will be in a civil war.

on the other hand...


"...On January 1, 1959, Castro's forces entered Havana and on January 5 the liberal law professor José Miró Cardona created a new government with himself as prime minister and Manuel Urrutia Lleó as president. On January 8 Castro himself arrived in Havana and assumed the post of Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces. In February, however, Miró resigned and Castro assumed the role nearly a month later after initially rejecting the offer; and in July, Urrutia resigned and was replaced by Osvaldo Dorticós Torrado, a lawyer more sympathetic to Castro's ideology.

Initially the United States was quick to recognize the new government. On April 15 Castro went on a famous twelve-day unofficial tour of the US, where he met Malcolm X, Egyptian President Gamal Abdel Nasser and Indian Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru while staying in a cheap hotel in Harlem - an example of his tendency to 'mix with the people', as he later also did in Panamá, where he used the service entrance of the hotel more than the front door. He subsequently visited the White House and met with Vice President Richard Nixon. Sometime during this period Castro spoke for his first time to members of the Council of Foreign Relations..."

Castro seems to mingle with people from Harlem rather than his own Cuban. Why the hell was there need to use the service entrance than the front door? May be he was still repeating his old habits of guerilla warfare. The tourist destinations and hotels in Cuba are banned for locals so that there won't be any interactions between the tourists from the liberal countries and the Cuban citizens.
