Budhist path is a very good option. This path means to do good to the maoists when they attack you so eventually the attackers would be ashamed of their voilence. This shame cannot be created without the leaders actually inviting the maoists to help themselves over whatever the leaders have to offer. The question is now who will have that fortune to be given up to the needy one? Somebody who understands Budha when he gave up his throne, heh! One of them is the King. But as we know, G Shah is also more a beggar than a donor. He is sure greedy of power, wealth and comfort. Remember so many tirtha's, he has done! For what? Not for the peace in the country! Just to end this paragraph, "Morning shows the day." Then, who? Girija? Neeeh Makune? ?? He must be rich, but do not know and personally do not think he has the courage to give up his fortune if any! But may have it! Third country? Neehhhh! In my humble opinion, we don't have that Budha right now but who knows? ----------- On a different note, the Thai king solved the problem when it was just surfacing. He had the gut to forget about his own well-being and sacrifice for the future. So he was clever, far-sighting and generous. In the Shah dynasty there is no such precedence and won't be in future, either. This is my firm belief! I wish somebody could say I was wrong!
