US Army T-Shirt, printed in China, of course.

The difference is that the US army is a force for good, for the people. Quite different from the Nepalese Army which is run by the tyrant Gyanendra.

It's not a 'real' US Army t-shirt. Not found in AR 670-1.

Some crap a company made up.

"The difference is that the US army is a force for good, for the people. Quite different from the Nepalese Army which is run by the tyrant Gyanendra."

But, Nepalese politicians were a force of evil. They were a corrupt bunch with corrupt intent. Now that they are jobless(can't extort money since they are out of business), they don't hold any power. I don't blindly support Gyanendra, but if I have to choose between a king and a lousy, corrupt rule of mad politicians, I would incline towards the king. That's just me.

And don't try to equate politicians of the US to Nepal. In the US, politicians were not politicians. They were businessmen/women, investors, doctors, lawyers, etc, before entering politics. They have no monetary greed to speak of. But, Nepali politicians get into politics at the young age and hoping to hit the jackpot(elected office).

If I were studying in Nepal, I would be one of those protesters... and an aspiring politician.

I agree with you.

Gyanendra's biggest mistake is to not accept the offer of the
Gurkhas in the foreign services to return and assist in putting down the Maoists. He should accept their kind offer.
