It's Official: The Maoists Have Taken Control of Nepal
In fairness, they were voted in...after running a ten-year-long insurgency against a government that admittedly did nothing but horde the king's cash far from his people. But I think the voters don't know what they're in for.
In any event, we have a new Chinese satellite state in the Himalayas.
Is anyone paying attention? CNN? FOX News? The Pentagon? Anybody?
You’re thinking: "Come on. Tibet...Nepal...these places are all in the middle of nowhere." Sure. Just like the Sudetenland. The Chinese government is happy to let you keep thinking that.
