Sirupate,

Let me ask you this without trying to offend all the Nepali Fighters fighting for foreign forces.

Lets say that the instead of Britishers it was the Nazi Germany who had concquered the world and they were really impressed with the loyalty and fighting willingness of Hill people of Nepal and were hiring Nepali fighters to keep Nazi order in the world. Would there still be bravery or pride in fighting?

Keep in mind in this imaginary Nazi world, Nazi principles would be marketed as the ultimate principle of the world as British Principle is today. Would we ( the fighters) still be intelligent enough to rationalize the CAUSE before joining the Nazi force or we would join anyways because its not the principle that will make us join the Nazi force bit it would be the need of our survival and the betterment of our offspring???

Another thought, If Nepal government opens recruitment of Nepali fighters for Iran...and Iran starts hiring, and IF the pay is better than what Britishers pay, You think the hill people are rational enough to say that they do not like the Iranian Cause and would not join forces????

So what is it?? Is there really a pride in this bravery or are we using PRIDE to cover the humiliation we have of being a mercenaries. Gaddafi also has bunch of mercenaries fighting for him. Are those also brave fighters?? Or are we brave because we side with the winners???? The only difference i see between Gaddafi mercenaries and us is that we are fighting for the winners.

Again, my post is not to offend any foreign fighters, in my opinion foreigh fighters are similar to foreign workers, there is no pride in becoming someone else's coolie. We belong to one shitty country, we cannot trade among ourselves and we have to sell our skills to foreigners who want to buy our skills. We are all selling our skills in the form of labor, knowledge, skills, bravery,  and trade.
