Dear Bill Marsh

As you probably heard, Parliament was dissolved here this past week, and elections called for Oct or Nov. This is such a load of B.S. These politicians here are really a bunch of self serving bastards. One of the newspapers here today has an article about how pissed off the Army is about all this. The article says that... well they didn't put that article in the Kathmandu Post section of the Nepalnews.com web site so I might just type it in separately, so you can check it out.

I wouldn't be surprised to see something drastic go down here that results in full reinstatement of power in the monarchy. Maybe that would be best. This is so complex. It is also next to impossible to figure out to what extent this is all being manipulated for a particular end, or by whom.

Stand by for the other article.

It is a mess. When I lived in Nepal Birendra had full command and it was a better place by far than it is today. Problem was he and family and henchmen just took too much.
