Located between India and China , the USA would be wise and well advised to very overtly do all it can to help Royal Nepal Army Forces resist and beat the Maoists forces.
The historic fact of Khmer Rogue , and Shining Path (Peru)
Maoists forces and their take overs (or attempts) should be the justification of this support. The US needs a strong ally
along the ridge of the highest point in the World to counter balance PRC expansionism and Indian proclivities to ultra leftist communism and maoism itself.
Nepal is easily one of the most absolutely scenic places on Earth as well. It would be a huge tragedy if this wonderful place were to be lost into the abysmal pit of Maoist fantasy ! Pressure India to over-rule it's own maoist sympathizers and work with Nepal , as they did with Bhutan last year to pincer and crush the maoists and cut off all their training bases and paths of ingress and egress.
India KNOWS all about the Tamil Tiger trainers and weapons conduits , but it foolishly does almost nothing !

Great! Now we'll be able to buy better Burberry knockoffs, innit.

The world is quite comfortable with holding Uncle Sam's coat and telling him to 'go at it' whenever anything needs fixing. Then complaining loudly.
