Consider a hypothetical situation where in our Prime Minister and Defense Minister called the Maoist militia "murderers of innocent Nepali people who tortured and raped women and used the point of their guns to extort money from the rich and the impoverished" at a live press conference in Rolpa in the presence of the highest Maoist leadership. What would be the reaction of the Maoist leadership is anyone's guess.

Bidhan, I was actually going to post this same article now.

Kantipur should be banned immediately and SPAMmers just thrown out. It is such a shameful situation that a media like Kantipur (which supports and instigates violence) is still existing in Nepal.

Shame. Shame.

memyselfandnepal: what are you talking about? That guest column appeared in Nepalnews, and not in Kantipur.

Arnico,

Did you even read the article?

1) The article says, that the reporter of Kantipur referred to Prachanda (the Killer) as, 'chairman'. whereas GirijaBabu and HM Gyanendra were referred to as Girija and Gyanendra during the entire episodical interview.

2) It is a known fact that Kantipur is a mouthpiece of SPAM goverment and it is the one who instigated MOB AND GOON MOVEMENT of 19 days. Reasons have been discussed here time and again.

3) Read Kantipur and you will see everything they write is against RNA.

Two things that need to be kicked out completely are: SPA and Kantipur.

Don't worry we are taking good care of Kantipur now and we will make sure they get their acts straight or bow out of Nepal.
