Things are bad enough in Nepal and now we've got a religious war too. How sad. Why can't our people look past the rage, revenge and mob mentality? The people back in Nepal have to realize that violence will never bring back the dead Nepalis. Whether at the hands of Iraqis, muslims, Maoists or Americans; without a clear, coherent voice the violence just makes Nepal look like a backward country that does not have the ability to reason and look deeper than just the immediate. As I've said before, peaceful protests and pleading to the government of the Phillipines brought back their ONE person back to them...and, he was alive! As we all know, the Nepali government is ineffective and has shown the inability to deal with crises such as this...it is up to the people to lead by example...maybe then we can begin to evolve into a strong nation. The devolution of the people of Nepal is sad. I have always been proud of Nepal, it's beauty and our ancestors, but today...I am embarrassed to say I was born there..
