To the original theme of the posting I am for it because I believe ONLY the leadership of the civil society has got the moral prowess to- 1. Lead a republican revolution because all other parties/folds lack the trust of ppl inside and/or legitimitacy to the external powers in the outside. 2. Interim administration: To accomodate all the warring parties and pursue them for a new democratic constitution is possible only through a neutral leadership, sth like civil society with the help of United Nations etc. Otherwise, even constitution assembly or whatever alike will again be played upon, messed and crapped up. Also the leadership of the civil society is less likely to have more vested interests than the leadership of a particular party or a foreign mediator. 2. Restructuring (refabrication-?) of the administrative units like federal system or regional autonomy or whatever is a necessity for a better future. However, the current parties/folds are either visionless or pro-status-quo or aim to distort communal harmony. Only the civil society can provide an unambigious and agreeable agenda and hence a solution. 3. Command of Army: Both the current buaurocray as well as the army need to be restructured. Plus, the Maoist PLA should be integrated into the national army. "Disarming Maoists" is just an insane dream. (My personal wish is declare nepal a peace zone and dedicate its army to UN peacekeeping missions etc because never in my lifetime will the national army of nepal be able to challange the chinese and indians, so better fence our borders and reform the army to sth like development corps or UN volunteers rather than keep feeding them and buying them INSAS rifles). Anyway,no particular party can be an agreeable command to the two warring parties, so leadership of the civil society is a must. 4. One of the current problems is of extreme politicization. Professions, workers, students, almost every one from every walk of life seems to be "parti-fied" to a political party/fold and the party-interests appear to dominate national interests. A revolution led by the civil society might reduce, if not eliminate, this "party-culture". I am for such a wave of pro-civil campaign. Keep rolling...
