Sorry, I just don't see it that way. If you want Nepal to be isolated and alone and be China's little b1tch, then perhaps a communist Nepal would appeal to you. But we all need to realize that even China has become cognizant of the fact that capitalism makes the world go round. Hell, what was China before they reformed their system to make it more workable? It's been a complete turnaround for China these days. And then, I also feel that India wouldn't want to do anything with a commie-haven either, granted that they champion democracy down there. Maoists have killed teachers if they don't support the Maoist cause. God knows how teachers have had their heads decapitated. Maoists abduct young children to fight for them. This has been well documented( check Amnesty international). Last I check, Prachanda didn't want to sway too far away from Mao's doctrine. This one book I read suggests that Prachanda and Co feel that China isn't following the visions of Mao, and openly chastise China because of that(this was a 4-yr old book--don't know if things have changed now). Plus, we all need to realize how the commies took control in China and Russia. Also, China is the most crooked country on the planet. They execute people who don't support their doctrines. Hell, in Russia, even Leon Trotsky had to run to Mexico(or wherever he ran) because the sort of communism he supported was not what Lenin wanted. There are so many examples. My point: We need international support. No international support=no development. Money needs to pour in to Nepal. Who would want to invest in a commie haven? I don't think Nepal would either. Sorry dude, I don't think communism works. I'm for freedom and democracy. We can always have a debate or two to solve our problems. We don't need impositions of any sort. India has a pretty robust constitution that guarantees that dalits are not treated like crap and what not. I do agree that some things in Nepal need to be totally revamped, but shoving things down people's throat is not a good idea. Do you think Terabashis will support such BS? Got too many Shiva Sainiks and what not over there. They would rather join India if they don't see things going their way.
