As far as afghanistan is concerned it failed not because king was kicked out, but becuase Taliban ruled it autocraticaly under their dictatorship. Same is true for Iraq. If we do not take proper action nepal will be same to. King and maoist can never come to consent and there will always be war. But if we strip both king and maoist and bring democracy back compramise can be reached. One thing is we have to make sure this is democracy that addresses every nepali from mechi to mahakali and gives equal power to every nepali.
