What a horrific story. If there is a hell, I hope there is an especially miserable place there reserved for terrorists!!

It's appalling isn't it?
It seems that the Nepali people are stuck between a rock and a hard place: an utterly corrupt government and royal family, or a bunch of murderous Maoists.

It is so utterly tragic, and there is so little hope of peace.
