Now in step 3 and 4:
Step #3
I. There will be a SINCERE-sounding, here-we-go-again type of a ready-made 'aatma-alochana' by the Maoist top leaders. They will use all the right words, push all the right emotional buttons, look genuinely contrite on TV, etc . . . they know that they will have to play the part, and they will pay it with all the sincerity of the muskaan on an air hostess's lips!
Step #4
IV. The Maoists will promise to punish the guilty -- (NOT according to the law of the land, but according to how they see fit) . . . and in a few days, everyone forgets who
was supposed to do what to whom.
A committee formed. Nepe ji smiles. Mr. Commander is suspended. Nepe ji smiles again because all these killers of 15000 got similar punishment. Suspended from such a garimamaya party. As Prachanda said two years ago (in the interview published in KOL, and a short quotes posted in earlier postings), that their punishment is dismissing them from Maoist Party, and he claims that some have already left: as in Birendra Sah's murder case.
