Aiight, before we go on the spree and play 'you' game; let's accept that it takes two to tango. Fair play, rule of the game? Definitely. Let's see if we can adhere to practicing before we preach. You call independent observers (they do give a DAMN about politics, simply because it is NOT only politics, it our country we are talking about.), "who can slip into any camp any time, figuring out how much gains the camp shifting can provide them." Is that not hypocrisy? Listen mate - that is called, "unbiased opinion." Of course there are many who fall into the categories you presented; and then there are some who have been brainwashed in sajha, among other places; to term others in certain categories and sub categories, if other person does not ALWAYS agree with their perspectives. These are called Goro jastai siddai jotini - daya baya kehi matlab chaina. Not to forget some who can not help but ride on their own moral high ground, and walks enlightening we ignorant. :). The later ones, i.e., "I have moral, you have not" makes me smile often with their uccha bichar ;). Hehehe. Now, while I present my claim, let me as well go on to unequivocally state that this blame game - "being in this camp or that" is started by the likes of brainwashed people, who are cynical enough not to understand that there is little good and whole lotta bad in every coteries. Precisely why, I choose to say as it is. Sabai Hariyo nai bhanum ta? Sadhai? ;) "Rahyoo............................................................wisher." Apart from the last statement, my feelings are no different than that of yours, which we have discussed earlier as well. I despise that as much as you do. If it pleases you, you can read your statement as mine :-). Yes, King is one of the reasons why Maoists are in the picture. Note-- "One of the reasons." Tyaspachi what you said bhaneko sabai hunu parcha -- I would save my breath in this one. Just incase, "hera hera kehi nabhnne" bhanla bhanera ;) - let me make it clear: NO ONE, absolutely no one should be above the constitution. It disgusts me to my bone the way they milk our taxed dough. I have had this opposing views regarding monarchy being be all and end all power with some people I know personally. However, maybe monarchy as a symbolic institution, devoid of any sweeping power, politically, militarily or constitutionally is I can live with. The reason I'm telling you this YET AGAIN is, you seem to forget that it's YOU who started terming the unbiased observers with objectionable cynicism. In the same spirit, I decided to taunt you with Maoist sympathizer slogan. It's not funny when people portray you with what you are not, just because they disagree on principle. Is it? ;) Thanks for the info on Khmer Rouge and Polpot. You tell me who is Maoist well wisher? Remember, your pair of eyes are not the ONLY pair that has capacity to understand and perceive what it sees. Enough said.: ) My empathy on your uncle's misfortune. Now what you could have done and did not, is up to you, and god forbid, if that happens to my loved ones, I NEED NOT adhere to your understanding. I for one would choose to blame those very hands and that very mind that are driving these animals to commit thousands of heinous crimes. Yeuta ekdam simple udharan -- A hungry man (bhanna khojeko khane kehi nabhako) can steal, forcefully take FOODS from others to survive (preferably from others who have more); that is a crime, YES, but I can understand. BUT that VERY MAN CAN NO WAY JUSTIFY HIS DISGUSTABLE CRIMES, IF HE FORCEFULLY TAKES THE FOOD, RAPES THE WOMEN OF THE HOUSE, KILLS THE BUDA, JAWAN AND ABUSES CHILD AND TAKES HIM TO BE A MAOIST. Now my friend, there is difference between being a circumstantial bad man/woman, AND AN ABSOLUTE ANIMAL. Catch my drift?
