Highfly Since the begining of human history there has always been wars and peace. If the human history were a coin, war and peace would be the two sides of that coin. Human history is a constantly revolving coin, sometimes you see one side of the coin while you see the other side of that coin. Wars have brought great changes instantly and greatly shortened the waiting time therefore greatly reducing suffering for the "next" generation of people. Without the war, most probably the blacks would have had to wait until 1960s to end slavery in the US. American Civil war of 1860-63 brough the change instantly therefore the generation of people born after 186s in the southern US didnt had to live in slavery. With the the war in Nepal, the establishment would have had never even think about re-writing the "out-of-date" and mostly unrealistic Constitution of Nepal of 1990. After the 2nd ceasefire in 2003, the establishment at least agreed to re-write that constitution (in theory at least). If the armed revolt would not have had happened, establishment would not give a crap about changing that ancient looking and mostly unrealistic and badly ridden with ancient mentality which are entrenched in the Constitution of Nepal 1990, the relevence of Monarchy system in Nepal and the question of control of Nepal Army. War reduces waiting time for the next generation of people at an expence of some people of the current generation. Are you worried about this generation or the next generation ? It's up to you make a choice.
