MN Nepali,

I think its the process that's gruelling and that which takes the toll on soldiers rather than which side they fought for or the satisfaction they get from being on the 'right' side. The end of both sides were different, but they probably went through similar horrors in the battlefields.

I mean, how can you lead a normal life when you have shot people (innocent or not), chopped off limbs, or have seen your entire group blown away into pieces? How can you lead a normal life when your heart pounds on the sight of every guy in camaflouge, in fear that he will probably shoot you point blank as well, just the way they did to your closest friend? How can you trust anyone?

Can we succesfully integrate these people into our society? If they do not receive family support or may be some help from the government, both these groups could end up on the streets, this time not as cadres or the NA but as homeless people!
