Hot Stuff, without sounding too condescending, let's go through the first few lines of my post: "Views from Nepal" - from Nepal, as in, I'm reporting from Nepal because that's where I am right now, albeit temporarily. That doesn't make my observations any less credible than that of a person who lives in Nepal permanently, does it? " The reactions to the current political development in Nepal among the masses in KTM can be generalized into a few categories.." - I specifically said KTM because I'm in KTM and I am not qualified to or do not desire to speak for the people outside the valley. The 4 points I made are merely observations I picked up on the streets of Kathmandu. Those of you having a problem with #4, talk to the people who are in that category because I'm not one of them. But I understand where they're coming from. Before you rush to any judgments, talk to one of them and you will at least sympathize with their stance. Democracy is after all an ideology and neither you nor I can expect everybody to subscribe to it. Bionepal, I didn't say anybody was right or wrong. I was only attempting to categorize the general reactions of the public in KTM.
