Some people have mistaken my word of caution as anti democracy - which is not the case at all.
If we practically look at the current politican situation of Nepal
* We want Democracy
* we have 7 party alliance who are fighting for multiparty democracy
The bigger picture is that this 7 party alliance which is fighting for democracy will need to partner with either the KING or the MAOISTS.
Do you feel comfortable with them collaborating with the Maoists or the King?
What happens:
If the 7 parties ally with the Maoists are bring democracy. It means the King is out. Maoists actively participate in political process. When you consider the bigger picture of Nepal, the 7 parties are not stronger than Maoist to resist them, if the Maoists decided to take control of Kathmand and thus the whole country.
These maoists who forcibly enroll the people from villages into their army or kill them, cannot be trusted.
If the 7 parties ally with the King and work something out, there is a chance that through political strategying we can someday liberate the kingdom to experience democracy.
If the Maoist take over it will be almost impossible, maybe it will take another 100 years or so.
So the question is do you want the 7 parties to collaborate with the KING or the MAOISTS?
