To glorify death in the present times will only escalate the ongoing conflict. And THT's move has only promoted this. Didn't we see that the entire country minus Kathmandu was screwed to a standstill after February 1 untill the Maoists called off their blockade? What sort of messages are such gory pictures supposed to give to the public? That it's party time in Kathmandu because a few more Maoists have been shot dead by the army? What happens if similar number of our soilders are shot dead somewhere else the next time... Hide the facts from the same papers that glorify the death of the Maoists? It's like hiding our heads on the sands like ostritches when we find ourselves in crisis. Grow up, widen your vision: Your Nepal isn't just Kathmandu. We desperately need peace but military solution doesn't seem to be the right answer right now. Glorifying Maoists death just because we view them as "terrorists" who bomb our highways isn't the right available solution.
