.there is no need to take a long route. the daman i was talking about was the firing. case in point, the firing in tripureswor and thapathali - 5 mins from my home. if you want to talk about maobaadi atrocities, you have the figure wrong. to begin with it is not 16000 it is 13000 - exaggeration will only eat into your own credibility. and by the way, you tell me how many of that 13000 were killed by the security forces? you talk about bandhs. what about the curfew? 25 hour curfew - is that a bandh or what? and you talk about the people not being able to go to work. yes, there are a lot of people suffering. but isn't it time to put an end to all the suffering we nepali have been facing since a very long time? and of course, you so conveniently forget the other side of the conflict. if you are so concerned about the people not being able to work - my parents are among them, mind you - why do you not censure the security forces and the king. afterall, if he gives up, this revolution will quiet down too! why blame just one side? why?
