Prawin, In today?s political situation in Nepal, where the head of state is the King, it may look like RNA is fighting to protect an ideal like you have mentioned, but the reality is, RNA is a fighting force of a state that is loyal to the government; and if the government was led by political parties, they would be royal to them as well. So it is not fair to blame RNA which is in fact merely doing what it is supposed to do, be loyal to the country and die for it. This is the case of civil war where the people of same country are fighting with each other in the name of the country. NK, I do not live in Boston or the surrounding area. And really US would be one of the few countries in my list to ask for any help be it lobbying any agenda, because of it?s foreign affairs. Anyway, like you and many others I am also concerned about the state of our country and would encourage for the solidarity among Nepalese.
