In this whole conflict I kind of understood how and why maoist made a U-turn in their ideology and came to compromised position of acceptance of multi-party democracy with new constition. Recent interview of Prachanda and Baburam with kantipur gives the same message. It is sad that it took them 10 years to realize communist republic is not possibel in 21st century and also it took 13000 innocent Nepalese life before maoist realized their misconception. But I think we should welcome their compromised position and offer. Because they fought a right war in wrong way and moreover there is not military solution to this conflict. I think even though we assume that RNA defeats current maoist, the problem will still be there. It is only until another Baburam or Prachanda raised their head to wage another war. The only end to this problem is end of social imbalance in Nepal. My only confusion lies on What king wants? King started his October 18 2002 move with positive attitude towards maoist, with ceasefire and dialogue. But what happened afterwards is confusing. There are rumors it was India/US pressure that forced king to break the dialogue and take road of military solution. Was it India/US pressure? or Was it Kings own self interest to protect monarchy? that failed the dialogue. If King took military solution road only for his self interest. Then selfish monarchs are no better than corrup leaders and should leave the power. Moreover, if King and his supporter feel that Nepalese peoples still support monarchy then let us go for constituitional assembly election. Maoist are ready to accept any result out of the election, why is King not ready to do so? Lastly, another confusion is What India/US wants? By recent military blockade they have shown they do not what autocratic rule of army and king. But if I am to believe they were the reason for breakdown of last dialogue between King's people and maoist, that mean they do not want any kind of compormise with maoist too. What do they really want then? Just let this conflict keep going and sell arms and ammunation to Nepal.
