Though this is a copy of my posting in another thread, I assume this might be relevant to this thread too. It seems to me that there is greater bloodshed in the offing: Well, Prachanda and Baburam et. al. are not less evil than KG. Both of them are directly involved in terrorist activities right from the inception of the ‘WAR AGAINST NEPAL’- beheading of poor villagers, teachers, policemen, army men and their family members, systematic killing of activists of other political parties, destruction of back bone of development- infrastructures such as Telecommunication tower (I was surprised to see Prachanda holding cell phone!, he needs it but deprives the poor from such means of communication to hear from his/her son/daughter from Malaysia/Kuwait/Afghanistan/Iraq, what a great leader), Airport, hydroelectricity projects, administrative buildings for local government bodies including recently destroyed Palpa darbar- a national monument, forceful closure of private and sometimes government schools, industries and so many to name here. It seems to me that their adroit tactic to divide and rule is only visible to Americans and remained unnoticed to Political leaders and the KG. Prachanda and Baburam have been personally involved in directing systematic killing and terror against carders of political parties. They have first just targeted NC and rest of others remained silent or sometimes even happy but as time progressed they did not spare even ideologically nearest sister parties like Janamorcha/Mashal etc. In past 10 years, they have killed more than 13 thousand innocent Nucleases and destroyed the hard earned infrastructure, displaced millions of people both inside and outside of the country. NOW, they come and say that they have realized that terror and violence are not the right way to change the system so that they even want to accept Monarchy if people choose to do so and whatever they are doing is for the shake of “DEVELOPMENT OF DEMOCRACY’ (Prachanda words during his interview to BBC). WOW, every other person misuses the word Democracy- political leaders, KG and now Prachanda also in the list. In this 21st century arm revolution alone can not bring revolution anywhere without support from countries like US and the rest of the West. They realized this only after 10 years! What great leaders they are? Whatever good intension they claim to have for the shake of people, to me they seem just another form of Tyranny. They can speak whatever they think is right and nobody dares to speak against their atrocities because in Nepal the bitter fact is that no one can survive without their “grace”-the grace to survive. If you speak against them then you will be another Ganesh Chelwal. Is it not true that it is the fear of Maoist that people think 1000 times before making any statements/comments against their atrocities? How could you believe in these adroit leaders of deceit and tactics to sublime into modern liberal democratic leaders who comply and leave up with the aspirations of 21st century democracy? I initially thought to write comments of Moriarty views or more precisely of instructions to KG and Parties but the slightest thought of Maoist running Nepal make me nervous. And to some extent Moriarty seems to have analyzed relatively accurately the ground reality of Nepal. From his statement it seems to be clear that: “US is determined not to see alliance of 7/8 parties with Maoists and Maoist constituting parallel government with re-organization of its people army with incorporation of carders from political parties as envisioned by Prachanda will not be supported or perhaps viewed as a mean to establish a RED state in between China and India by US and its allies.” Now interesting events to unfold in the future are: 1. Will Maoist be able to keep 7/8 parties with them against constant pressure of Royal sympathizers within the parties and US? Even if they succeeded in forming alliance and outstayed (which is most unlikely in the near future as accepted by Prachanda himself) KG, it seems that US is determined to ostracize Maoists and possibility of RED government of Maoist history in Nepal is very unrealistic (especially when Moriarty hopes/wishes Nepal would be coming under Bush’s priority list in future). 2. Will KG heed the voices of US and India (Two pillar theory- Multiparty democracy and Constitutional Monarchy) and steps-down and honestly remains as a constitutional monarchy as his brother Late King B did? (I guess bringing Army directly under PM and parliament would only that something assures parties that King as constitutional Monarch). Will KG be willing to be a king of just Naranayanhiti Palace whereas PM/parliament enjoys every small bit of power of Nepal? This looks unlikely to happen especially with the traits of KG which means that real compromise and mutual respect between parliamentary parties and KG from heart and soul might be a day dream for most of the Nepalese. Well, now both of these seem not happening in the near future, that might be one of the reasons that Prachanda is expecting to happen some change in 5 years. This means we will be witnessing more deaths and atrocities from both sides.
