They may be doing well with these sort of tactics, but a plan needs to be developed for getting into Kathmandu.

Red Jezza said:I'm really sorry to break this to you, but Bambi ain't gonna be the next president/king/gen. sec. of Nepal.

what brilliantly irrefutable proof that the whole Chinese Revolution brought no gains to the billion-odd of Chinese people.harticus said:Wern't the Kmher Rouge chinese backed and Maoist inspired!!! Communism is a fuckin pipe dream!

I doubt the Nepalese monarchy are sitting there thinking "Great at last we have help on Urban75"...
