From Outside Away magazine: The Last Days of the Mountain Kingdom Dateline: Nepal, 2001. The royal family has been murdered. Maoist guerrillas prowl the countryside, fomenting agrarian revolution. Kathmandu has succumbed to general strikes and indiscriminate bombings. And everybody's got his own pet conspiracy theory. Is this in the Himalayas, or the next Asian apocalypse in the making? http://outside.away.com/outside/news/200109/200109nepal_1.adp ---------- Thought some of you might find this interesting. It's the first recorded visit to the Maoist-controlled areas by a western journalist that I've come across. And the article has some nice photographs. If anyone on the list knows anything about the link between Christianity and Maoism in Nepal it would be greatly appreciated. Lars Copenhagen, Denmark
