Will your kind ever understand that .....
support for a cause is rarely, if ever, unconditional? [/b] Do you understand that just because one supports the broader aims of a cause, it does not automatically mean that one always agrees with the methods, ideology and tactics? Do you understand that? Yes or no will do.
After breaking the cease-fire, the Maoists staged numerous deadly attacks onpolice and army posts, government facilities, and civilian areas, and forced thecountry’s economyto a standstill A significant proportion of the deaths associated with the insurgencyhave occurred since November 2001. Two of the deadliest battles came in May2002, when, according to Nepali officials, up to 650 rebels and at least 100 soldiersand police officers were killed.
Do you, like Macabre, believe an invasion by the Indian army would sort the maoists out good and proper?(
the Maoists are not in a position to capture state power in Kathmandu merely with the gun. "The geopolitical situation is such that a simple capture of power is impossible," says Govinda Sharma Bandi, an advocate in the Supreme Court of Nepal.
But what is of greater significance is that people in the rural areas are also turning against the Maoists.

This war is about power, not class
Jessiedog said:There's already plenty enough info' on this thread to allow anyone reading it to identify the veracity of each side's arguments.
Macabre said:We've have read everyone of your sources
Macabre said:Please give your source detailing the massive work that has been completed by the maoist, men and women, to overcome sex and caste discrimination and abuse. I’ve provided a even handed, independent source that show how they claim to fighting for equality but in practise are just perpetuating the caste and gender problems, you have yet to provide anything to back up you claims.
Macabre said:DUAF, do you not find it odd that every single person on this thread who has some form of contact with Nepal is highly critical of the Maoists or are we all royalist, thatcherite, neo-liberals .
Macabre said:You preiodically refuse to comment on the Maoists actions; child soldier, perpetuating the caste system, rape, abductions, executions, school closures, etc. Not once have you shown this is not the case.
Sorry, everyone at the beginning that wasnt spamDoUsAFavour said:Lying toerag.
Not only are you a conservative imperialist public school boy you are, suprise suprise a filthy liar to boot!
Well it is easy to get you and fishfingerer confused, your arguments for the last half of the thread have been nothing but abuse. I'll apologies once Ive recieved one for every time youve called me a cunt, fucker, etc.DoUsAFavour said:I have called nobody a 'Thatcherite'.
I await an apology.
DoUsAFavour said:I am not refusing to comment on these accusations I actually have a life other than this thread on some oddball bulletin board on t'interweb.
Firstly!
Child soldiers? Your paper says the maoist have some youths aged between 15 and 18 and also that the vast majority of these do not engage in combat.
'Child soldiers' do you realise that you can join the british army at age 16.
Do you accuse the british army of using child soldiers? Or does that one year make such a difference?
Please do post from these fabled, out of date sources. On the surface the Maoists preach caste and gender equality and Im sure there are examples of justice being carried out, but these acts appear to be few and far between. Preaching equality when the woman are still systematically raped and used as cannon fodder is hardly justified in exchange for a principal which appears to be rhetoric for most. It doesnt matter how or where I got the sources, probably the same way you did, the point is the're there. They are well written, even handed, independant, up to date and relevant sources.DoUsAFavour said:If you would look a little further at the references I have given you will find paper written by two female anthropologists detailing the justice that women can only get through the maoists.
I don't have the book with me but I will return with facts and figures.
The book clearly states that the VDCs don't give a flying fuck about women and most of them, yes most, think domestic violence is acceptable. Where maoists have control women have access to protection and justice.
This is a very well researched and referenced paper and the writers have gone to great lengths to get their infomation, which is a lot more than can be said for your very political reports you have googled up.

DoUsAFavour said:Well it's funny you should mention that I work as a farm labourer for donkeys.
DoUsAFavour said:Of course you are! Who else is going is going to make you rich?
So you say you live in China and you're not a foreigner!?
Surely I've seen a pic of you and you are white, middle aged with floppy blonde hair. I maybe wrong, but that doesn't sound very indiginous to me!
So pray tell how do you class yourself as a Chinese?
DoUsAFavour said:The only people I have met that are imperialists are either over 70 or have attended public school.
Macabre which is it for you?
Pensioner or public school boy?
How altruistic of you. Nothing like throwing a few shekels about to assuage one's useless liberal guilt.
Surely I've seen a pic of you and you are white, middle aged with floppy blonde hair. I maybe wrong, but that doesn't sound very indiginous to me!

Macabre, jessiedog, don't let yourselves be intimidated by these lunatics. They outnumber us in political threads and use despicable tactics to win their arguments... but you are not alone. There are normal decent non-communist people here. They can't shut us up if we don't want to be shut up.
bob potter said:“To choose sides in Vietnam is to place oneself in the tutelage of one or another bureaucratic system....The Vietnamese peasant who revolts against his feudal and foreign masters has no alternative but to support the National Liberation Front (NLF) which is controlled by the Communist Party....At this stage, revolutionaries IN VIETNAM probably have little alternative but to be involved with the NLF and participate in the military struggle against the American forces. One cannot be ‘neutral’ while aircraft are flying over one’s head, dropping bombs.” (p. 15-16).
Then he added, “For us, IN BRITAIN, the situation is quite different. We are not militarily involved in the struggle. There is no necessity whatsoever for us to align ourselves with any bureaucracy. We do a positive disservice to the cause of socialism if we participate in the general mystification concerning the class nature of the Russian, Chinese, or North Vietnamese regimes. Revolutionary socialists should clearly and constantly propagate their conception that socialism means the political, organizational, and ideological autonomy of the working class.” (p. 16)
Jessiedog said:Still no sources?
What a surprise!
Good grief!
You seem to have some deep misconception of me.
"Floppy blond hair" indeed?
COMPLETE BOLLOCKS!!!
You must have grasped the wrong end of the stick here, I fear.
Rich?
ME?
Fuck off!
Oh well.
Nevertheless DUAF, before you go any further....this is getting very personal and nasty - and not from my end.
And as I've said, that's not what I want.
I was happy to debate the issues, but frankly, the idea that you would stoop so low as to go out of your way to try and find out my real identity and try and "out" me - no matter how misguided such attempts may be - speaks volumes.
Please drop it.
Don't do this DUAF, please.
I didn't think you'd go this far.
I have responsiblilities - many people depend upon me.
Do you know where I live and travel? What I do? What I stand for, DUAF? Or the fucking half of what I'm involved in?
No. You don't.
I don't want ANYONE here disclosing anything about me at any time.
And before you start twittering about this info being freely available.
Read the fucking FAQ!
(Someone report this tit! )
So, now, I bow (wow) out of this debate (and I'm going to have second thoughts about being so freely spoken on Urban after this quite frankly, if this is how long term board members are going to be treated).
It is not in my best interests to continue, given that any further attempts by DUAF to go down this line may have repercussions for myself and my family/friends/associates.
Thanks for that DUAF.
Please drop it.
The best to you and yours DOUF.
But please, NOTHING else personal.
Woof
DoUsAFavour said:LOL!
You really are being a self righteous tit.
You claim that you are an infalable expert on Nepal because you live over a thousand miles from the country.
You claim you are not a foreigner in China and yet you are a a white man.
I strongly believe you and Macabre are merely defending your class on this thread.
If you wish to use your experience in China as a reason why you should be the guru of all things Nepali you should be at least be willing to highlight why, otherwise step off your throne.
