The king has since then promised to install a stable democracy in Nepal, and vowed to fight and end the Maoist rebellion.

the monarchy's reputation nosedived in 2001 when the crown prince, Dipendra, killed his father, the popular King Birendra, and several other royals in a palace massacre.
The steady decline of monarchy worldwide continues to baffle social scientists.

This is so ridiculous , and it seems to happen every six months. The people of Nepal should sack this King , not the King sack the Government (again!). This man is very bad luck for Nepal , he himself does almost nothing to end the Maoist
rebellion , preferring instead to keep most of the RNA around him in Kathmandu , to protect his reign from overthrow.
And worst of all , if something should happen to Guyendra
his evil son Paras would ascend to the throne. Paras is something like a Lite version of Uday Hussein and this would be a tragedy for Nepal. DUMP the King! Declare a Republic , call home all Gurkha's and soundly defeat the Maoists once and for all. Demand that India cooperate in this effort and stop secretly aiding and abetting the Maoists out of fear of their own Maoists.
Nepal is a mess today and this illegitimate King only makes it worse.

But the monarchy's reputation nosedived in 2001 when the crown prince, Dipendra, killed his father, the popular King Birendra, and several other royals in a palace massacre. He then turned the gun on himself. Nepalese astrologers failed to forsee royal nosedive ping.

Damn! My airline tickets to Nepal don't have me leaving Alabama until February 3, 2005. My plan was to arrive there and simply declare myself leader. You haven't heard the last of me Senor Gyanendra!

Earlier, the King had sacked Deuba in 2002 for failing to hold elections, but asked him to form the government last year as the rebels stepped up insurgency in the Himalayan kingdom. Is this King Gyanendra or George Steinbrenner we're talking about here?

Democracy must be the current buzzword internationally.
I have been amazed at how many, and who began applying the term 'terrorists" to their enemies to justify themselves over the last couple of years.
Now we have the Monarch of a country who has just exercised the ultimate totalitarian authority by disolving everything and putting himself in charge, and claims he is doing so in the name of democracy.
It's all about the terminology. Sheesh.
