i have nothing personal grudge against moriarty but his statement at times have made me believe that he is one "pig"...a flip coin of Bush. does this fugger know about nepal's ground reality? residing in the US embassy builiding in ktm does not make him aware of what's going on in places like rolpa, dolpa, humla, rukum and so on. i sometimes feel like abandoning US envoys from talking to media, i know it sounds harsh...but the responsible person as he is, needs to be careful of what he is speaking to the media. it circulates around the world in seconds. we are at a critical stage of peace making, and the irresponsible statement as this may well hinder the process. if i were the PM, i would ask him for an apology...
