Pire seems to have a lot of knowledge on the subjectmatter. I agree with most of what Pire has to say. The last paragraph about Gorkhali (which I think applies to all Nepali) sure makes us feel proud.
however I disagree on this one line from Pire: "..... good people were in both sides, but make no mistake, one side was evil and the other side was good."

I disagree because, the bad guy of ramayan - Ravan is worshipped in Sri Lanka. He has written beautiful poem praising Shiva which is still sang at Pashupatinath. He might have done a lot of evil but I dont think labeling him or any one side of mahabharata as evil.
Yes the stories and TV series present these people as evil. I disagree to them because I think there is good and evil in everyone.
