Only the followers of Polpot can have the stony hear to justify the killing, pillage and plunder perpetrated by the Maoist terrorist. Yes, karnali is poor and backward. How do you address the problem? By waging a terrorist war against the govt elected by majority. It all started when there was a democratic goivernment. Should the govt. bow to the Maoist thugs just because they talk aboiut the suffering of people in Karnali? The world has categorically rejected communism as an answer to the social inequality and underdevelopment. Nepal's future lies not with the maoist criminal but with a democracy. We can not allow the killings of Cambodia to happen in Nepal? Polpot cvlaimed toi justify the massacre in Cambodia in the name of promoting social equality? Is that a great cause that drives the Maoist thugs in Nepal? About Marxism I will write later if I have a free time. I donot know whether discussion in this foruym contributes even in a small way to build up opinion against the Maoist crimes against humanity. You talk about Gyanendra. His position can not be threatened as long he remains committed to the constituional monarchy. Today in this conflict he is our commander in chief as long as there is no elected govt to talk the charge.
