freak .... only a few postings above yours, I have posted my opinions on the monarchy, which is pretty nuanced. So stop painting me one way or the other. (1) P is a Maoist. (2) P is a Republican. (3) P does not tolerate differences in opinion. What other brush stokes do you have? All three get proven null and void for anyone who cares to peruse just through this one thread, let alone my writings elsewhere online. " Just copying the constitution of Switzerland is not going to make Nepal as good as Switzerland." So I guess you come from some weird, ignorant school of thought that says constitutions do not matter. The truth is they matter fundamentally. Again, read Lawoti's work on this. Link posted above. Do your homework, freak. "Diversity is good but diversity of opinion at this point is NOT good." This coming from a guy who just accused me of not tolerating differences in opinion! "Right now, nationalism and one goal, whether it be supporting the Maoists or the Monarchy, should unite the whole of Nepal." The heck with your Panchayate nationalism. " First unite on the problem, then unite on the solution and when the problem is solved, then talk about diversity and other things." That ONE idea in my mind would be the Constituent Assembly. Because I believe disarming the Maoists and sending the army back into the barracks has to be the primary goal. You are basically a status quo person. That is what unity and nationalism means to you. I wonder where that comes from? Your schooling? Upbringing? Ethnic background? Are you a Nepali Speaking High Caste Male from a family that perhaps made it big milking the bureaucracy? Freak's Supermodel 6: Indian Military Intervention: This is so far fetched. I call this Mahendra's ghost. Scare the people so they keep under you. " If you believe that revolutions are internal process then you are wrong." I can't be so naive as to say that. I do think in terms of geopolitics. But I do thin the primary credit for the 1990 achievement goes to the Nepali people who came into the streets. They are the primary reason why the change happened. Otherwise India was still there 2 and 20 years before that. How can a self-proclaimed nationalist like you be so disrespectful of the Nepali people! Proves your version of nationalism is hollow. So India's independence was more due to Roosevelt than to Gandhi and the other Indian leaders!? I mean, I don't dislike Roosevelt or anything like that, but I thin the Indian freedom fighters deserve to be mentioned more than in name. So there is a new freak avatar. He not only worships Mahendra, he also worships the White Colonialists of yore. "And sorry to break this down to you, Nepal's neighbors and freinds want the monarchy to stay, for their own reasons." I know the truth, you don't know the truth, let me tell you the truth. Freak, you are not going anywhere talking like this. I think none of Nepal's neighbors would mind Nepal becoming a republic, just like they do not mind the king hanging on. They are fine either way. They are too preoccupied with their own stuff. Countries are like individuals, that way. I am trying to figure you out. (1) Freak worships Mahendra and is a Monarchist. (2) Freak is an apologist for the White Colonialists of yore. (3) Freak thinks what happens inside of Nepal is primarily a result of the desires of those few Indian bureaucrats in the South Block, which is basically a desk in the Indian Foreign Ministry. Some desk, that must be! I tried, I could not. What exactly do you stand for? "If you want the American policy on Nepal and India to change, start writing to the senators and powerful lobbies in America, India, UK and everywhere." I think the reverse. I think it is more about empowering the Nepalis with voting rights. Which would be by bringing democracy back. And also in my small ways getting involved with literacy, primary health care, and micro credit projects.
