Moriarty Was Wrong On The 12 Point Agreement


Moriarty opposed the talks that lead to the 12 point agreement, and he opposed the agreement when it finally came about. It is that 12 point agreement that made the April Revolution possible. Moriarty was so off the mark, it is not even funny. The April Revolution is one for world history.

Moriarty is part of an administration in the US that has managed to create quite a mess in Iraq. $320 billion, over 2400 American lives, over 100,000 Iraqi lives, and Iraq, a country of 27 million people like Nepal, still does not have peace and democracy. The American right wing is full of people who look down upon people who are not white. It is those right wingers that waged the war in Iraq.

The Nepali way of spreading democracy is superior to the American neocon way. Moriarty should humble himself and learn. Moriarty has read tomes on Lenin, Mao and Pol Pot, but he refuses to read the ground realities in Nepal, and he refuses to learn the lessons of the April Revolution.

Now he has come out opposing the 8 point agreement. What does he mean?

When it comes to Nepal, Moriarty has a huge blind spot. Obviously his graduate school training did not prepare him for Nepal. He kept trying to forge an alliance between the king and the seven parties. That defied logic and gravity both at once. How can you forge an alliance between a dictator and the persecuted?

Only a seven party alliance with the Maoists could have done the trick, as it did. Moriarty will have to admit that.

Moriarty said America will not recognize an interim government that the Maoists are part of unless the Maoists "renounce violence." That phrase makes even less sense than his previous attempt at the king-seven party alliance.

Does Moriarty understand the term ceasefire? What about constituent assembly? What about a democratic republic? The superpower ambassador seems to have lost his sense of direction.

If you form an interim government with the Maoists, many good things will happen.
  1. The seven parties can hope to have joint command over the Maoist army.
  2. An eight party parliament could be formed. The Maoist leaders would learn the basics of parliamentary democracy.
  3. There would be eight party governments at the center and at the local levels. Maoist governments at the local levels would be dissolved. How is that not a wonderful proposition?
  4. The "extortions" would stop. The country will have only one government instead of a seven party government in Kathmandu and Maoist governments in the villages. How is that not good?
Moriarty was wrong on the 12 point agreement by 180 degrees. He is not doing any better on the 8 point agreement. It seems to be in the nature of the politicians of a poor, small country to pay unnecessary, extra attention to the casual utterances of a superpower ambassador. And so Moriarty has to be partly blamed for the delay in the formation of the interim government in Nepal. Moriarty is helping delay peace and democracy. That is not something he can be proud of. He is blind to the shifting ground realities in Nepal. He is not open to the possibility that something new might happen in Nepal for the first time, before it happens in Ameica or India, let alone Russia, China and Cambodia.

The seven party leaders and MPs need to stop dragging their feet. If the Maoists are not to be trusted, they should say so to the people. But being neither here nor there is not going to fly.

For Moriarty to give the kid treatment to the Nepali leaders and people is offensive. There is this constant suggestion on his part that the Nepali people do not realize the huge danger the Maoists are. If it were not for Moriarty, the Nepali people will walk straight into the mouth of the tiger. That patronizing attitude has to stop.

Instead people like Moriarty should help with the financial aspects of arms management, army integration, perhaps downsizing if they can. If not then they should just get out of the way of the peace process.

Citizens' Movement for Democracy and Peace

The Resolution Passed by Consensus

The Citizens' Movement for Democracy and Peace (CMDP) has been zealously supporting every agreement and understanding reached between the seven-party alliance (SPA) and the NCP (Maoists) in the interest of the country's progress, sustainable peace and democratic aspirations of the people. In particular, the citizens' movement has welcomed the 12-point understanding and the 8-point agreement between them and is, accordingly, engaged actively in the mission to take the current political developments forward to the elections for the Constituent Assembly as per the mandate given by the sovereign people. CMDP is committed to fulfil its responsibilities to allow the Nepali people to have the democratic republic they wish for through the constituent assembly.

We saw how the supporters of status quo within and outside the political parties rose against the 8-point agreement in defiance of the popular will and the dignity of the party leaderships. We see other examples of the vested interests that have never cared for citizens' rights and for peace and justice for all people becoming active. The people of Nepal participated and made sacrifices for democracy in the Janaandolan in a manner that dazzled the world and made us all proud. Now the interests favouring the status quo and regression are conspiring against the forward-looking engagements and achievements by abusing even the floors of the House of Representatives, which, after all, has been reinstated for a specific purpose and period. The principal objective of the opposition to the 8-point agreement is to obstruct the peace process initiated by the representatives of the SPA and the Maoists as per the mandate of the Janaadolan. If left alone, these forces will make every attempt to create an environment that would discourage and dislocate the prospects for the all-important elections to the constituent assembly.

The House of Representatives and the SPA leadership must understand that in the name of the Janaandolan they do not have the mandate to give perpetuity to the House and allow it to function in a manner that reflects all the weaknesses, interests and characters carried over from the past. The sovereign people will not tolerate any such attempt against their just aspirations for peace and their basic rights. The people want to see the successful conclusion of the ongoing talks between the SPA and the Maoists as soon as possible. They want to see the early constitution of the interim government and the peaceful settlement of the issue of the management of the arms and the personnel of the armies of both sides. And they want to see an early election to the constituent assembly. The ultimate quest is the dawn of a new era of peace and development in which every democratic section of the society is productively involved.

We are concerned that the NCP (Maoists), too, have not fulfilled their obligations in the 12-point understanding and the Ceasefire Code of Conduct. The acts of omissions and commissions on their part can only provide the ground for regressive forces within and outside the House of Representatives that wish to engage in reactionary missions. It is imperative for both the Maoists and the Government to abide by the commitments they have made to the people in these understandings so that the talks can proceed and conclude with the expected results. The CMDP wishes to ensure that both the Government and the Maoists respect their commitments to the people. It wants to defeat the forces of regression and status quo that dare to raise their heads against the mandate of Janaandolan. With these objectives, we are going to the people and to the streets and assemblies with the following specific demands.

  • Execute the 8-point Agreement
  • Drive the Peace Process to its Purposeful Conclusion
  • Announce the Date for the Election to the Constituent Assembly
  • Dissolve the House of Representatives
  • Respect the Ceasefire Code of Conduct in Letter and Spirit
  • Punish the High-Level Army Officers Responsible for Human Rights Abuses during the Peaceful Janandolan
  • Viva la Republique
CMDP will continue to press for the attainment of these demands and to keep these issues in the public forefront. In this vein, CMDP announces a citizens' sit-in on Wednesday at 4 pm at Puspa Vatika, Ratnapark. CMDP has also decided to collaborate with the civil society leaders and ordinary citizens at various districts to organise similar programmes with a focus on the above demands. As efforts from conservative and regressive forces increase to sabotage the attempts to institutionalize the victory and spirit of the Janandolan , CMDP appeals for the support and participation of all leaders, political activists and citizens who believe in the democratic rights and sovereignty of the Nepali people.

Political Decisions, House Dissolution, Maoist Transformation


The big parties of the seven party alliance have not exactly been ahead of the curve. They resisted the idea of a constituent assembly for as long as they could. The 1990 constitution was among the very best in the world, they claimed.

Now they are dragging their feet on pretty much everything else.

RPP For Federalism Ahead of UML, NC And NC(D)
Interim Constitution Draft
UML Inching Towards Federalism

The king used the Maoist ghost to impose his dictatorship upon the country. Now the Congress MPs are using the same to not have to do homework.

Some logic has to come into the equation.

(1) The Maoists are an ultra left violent group. You start here.
(1a) You seek to militarily annihilate them. But first you have to know you can.
(1b) Or you can seek a political solution even if there might be a military option, which in Nepal never was the case.

(2) You seek a political solution.
(2a) You join hands to end the king's dictatorship.
(2b) You seek their commitment to a roadmap you can trust. If they are for a constituent assembly, and for a democratic republic, that is good news.

(3) Once the ideological homework has been done, you work to take care of the logistics of arms management.
(3a) Do a headcount. There are 100,000 soldiers in the Nepal Army, and 36,000 in the Maoists' Army.
(3b) First you bring the Nepal Army firmly under civilian control. Fire a few generals to prove the point. You should have the confidence that you can command this army to go to war with the Maoists if necessary. Only you don't think along those lines. War is not an option.
(3c) The armies can be put in separate barracks, and put under the command of an interim government that includes the eight parties. They can be retained as such and work could proceed for the constituent assembly elections. When you do this, the state feeds both armies, and the Maoists formally stop extortions. There are no more two states.
(3d) The two armies can be integrated, downsized. The two armies can be dissolved.

(4) Then you realize the Maoists have local governments in close to 80% of the country.
(4a) And so you seek an interim arrangement.
(4b) How about having an eight party parliament? An eight party interim cabinet? And eight party governments also in all the villages, towns, and districts? Why the eight parties? Because these eight parties authored the April Revolution.

But instead some Congress MPs are busy spewing conspiracy theories of the Maoists importing arms from China. I would not be surprised if it is the thug generals in the Nepal Army who are behind these conspiracy theories. They need the Maoists to look ugly, and irrational and inhuman to continue acting like they are an autonomous organ of the state.

The seven party alliance took a bunch of political decisions. But then when it came time to propose Chitralekha Yadav for Speaker, suddenly they wanted a vote. Now the MPs think the 1990 constitution does not allow for House dissolution.

Is House dissolution and the formation of a new House worth the price to dismantling all the local governments of the Maoists? Is it worth bringing extortions to a stop? Is it worth it to expedite the peace process? Is it worth it to bring the Maoists more into the mainstream?

People keep talking of Lenin and 1917. This is 2006. Nepal is its own country. Lenin never talked of a democratic republic as a goal. The Nepali Maoists do. That is all they talk of. The Nepali Maoists some time in 2005 shifted from "Power flows through the barrel of a gun" to "Power flows through the ballot box." That is a huge shift. You have to recognize that.

Democrats in the seven party alliance who drag their feet on issues of state restructuring and social justice give credence to the "Power flows through the barrel of a gun" dictum. When 13,000 people die, they listen. But before those deaths, they do not listen. What is the message that they are sending?

The seven party alliance needs to get more proactive than it has been.

Girija Koirala's prime ministership is symbolic of the seven party inaction. We seem to have gotten ourselves a constitutional monarch prime minister. You don't make someone Prime Minister to honor them. Being Prime Minister is like being CEO. The person should be putting in at least 10 hours of strenuous hard work each work day. But Girija's health does not allow for that. So why is he still Prime Minister? The office perhaps is shortening his life. Those who wish him a long life should engineer his retirement.

What If Prachanda Gets Elected Nepal's First President

If he gets there through free and fair elections, so be it. If the Maoists end up the largest party in Nepal through free and fair elections, then so be it. That is what democracy is about.

"यस्तै दृष्टिकोणविहीन स् िथति रहिरह्यो भने अक्टोबर क्रान्तिका नाममा अर्को अराजकता निम्तिन सक्छ ।" ...... गठबन्धन सरकारका नेताहरूले माओवादी पक्षमाथि आचारसंहिताविपरीत चन्दा आतङ्क फैलाएको, अपहरण जारी राखेको र जनअदालतलाई सक्रिय तुल्याएको आरोप लगाउँदै आएका छन् । ...... माओवादीहरूले लोकतान्त्रिक गणतन्त्रको कार्यसूचीलाई जति बलियोसँग अगाडि धकेलेका छन्, सात राजनीतिक दलको गठबन्धनले यसको समानान्तर कुनै रणनीतिक कार्यसूची प्रस्तुत गर्न सकेका छैनन् । गठबन्धनमा रहेर पनि सात राजनीतिक दलले भावी राजनीतिक घटनाक्रमहरूलाई सम्बोधन गरेर संयुक्त कार्यसूची बनाउन सकेका छैनन् । उनीहरू सत्ता साझेदारीका कारणले मात्र एकसाथ बसेका देखिन्छन् । ....... संसद् घोषणापछि सरकारी पक्षमा शिथिलता देखिएको छ । संसद् घोषणा र त्यससँग बाझिने नेपालको संविधान २०४७ का धाराहरू निलम्बित गर्ने संसद्को निर्णयलाई नै सात राजनीतिक दलको गठबन्धनको मूल सूत्र मान्ने हो भने उनीहरूको अग्रगमनको गति सीमित भइसकेको छ । ....... गठबन्धन सरकारका नेता र नेपाली काङ्ग्रेसका सभापतिका रूपमा पनि कोइरालाको राजनीतिक आधिकारकिताको न त सात दलभित्र कुनै विकल्प देखिएको छ, न बाहिर । ..... माओवादी सङ्गठनको विस्तारले वामपन्थी दलहरू, खास गरेर एमालेलाई व्यग्र तुल्याएको छ । ...... शान्तिको व्यवस्थापनभन्दा पहिले पार्टीहरू आ-आफ्नो भूमिका र भविष्य सुरक्षित गर्न चाहन्छन् । माओवादीहरू प्रत्यक्षतः मूलधारमा आएपछि निर्माण हुनसक्ने समीकरणले सबै दलहरूलाई उत्तिकै चिन्तित बनाएको छ । ....... काङ्ग्रेसले अग्रगामी नीति अख्तियार गर्न सकेन र सेरेमोनियल वा अन्य कुनै किसिमको राजतन्त्रसँग जोडिन गयो भने यसका आधारहरू सुरक्षित रहन नसक्ने स्पष्ट भइसकेको छ । दुवै काङ्ग्रेसका कार्यकर्ताहरूमा पार्टी नेतृत्वप्रति वितृष्णा बढ्दो छ । ...... सात राजनीतिक दलको गठबन्धनले माओवादीलाई आठौँ दलका रूपमा स् वीकार गरेका छैनन् । ....... अहिले नै राजनीतिक दलहरू प्रक्रिया अघि बढाउनमा भन्दा विवाद र खिचलो बढाउनमा आफ्नो शक्ति खर्च गररिहेका छन् भने भोलिको प्रतिस्पर्धा कति कटु हुन सक्दछ, अनुमान गर्नु कठिन छैन । ...... संसद्वादी राजनीतिक दलहरूले जनताका बीचमा आफ्नो आकर्षण गुमाएका छन् ........ नयाँ राजनीतिक शक्तिका रूपमा माओवादीप्रतिको आकर्षण बढ्दो छ । माओवादीका नेताहरूले आफूलाई पृथक् ढङ्गले प्रस्तुत गर्ने गरेकाले गैरवामपन्थीहरूका बीच पनि उनीहरूको लोकपि्रयता बढ्न थालेको छ । ....... संसद्वादी राजनीतिक दलहरूले भविष्यका लागि मौलिक कार्यसूची प्रस्तुत गर्न नसकेको अवस् थामा माओवादीहरू आफ्नो कार्यसूचीको पक्षमा जनमत सिर्जना गर्न थालिसकेका छन् । संसद्वादी दलहरूले प्रतिस्पर्धाका लागि आफूलाई तयार पार्न सकेनन् भने भोलिका दिनमा उनीहरूले ठूलो घाटा बेहोर्नुपर्ने स्पष्ट देखिन थालेको छ । .... ज्यान हत्केलामा राखेर परविर्तनका पक्षमा उत्रिने जनतालाई कसैले रोक्न सक्दैन ।
डा बाबुराम भट्टराईसँगको विशेष संवाद नेपाल कम्युनिस्ट पार्टी माओवादीका नेता र कार्यकर्ताहरु खुला राजनीतिमा सक्रिय भएपछि संसद् वादी दलहरु र माओवादीहरुबीचको सम्बन्ध असन्तुलित हुन थालेको छ । ..... सरकार र माओवादीबीच भएको पछिल्लो सहमतिमा प्रतिक्रिया व्यक्त गर्दै अमेरिकी राजदूत जेम्स एफ मोरियार्टीले माओवादीहरु अक्टोबर क्रान्तिको तयार ीमा लागेको आरोप लगाउन ....... आठबुँदे सहमतिको लक्ष्य पुरानो सत्ता र हामीले १० वर्षमा निर्माण गरेको नयाँ सत्ताको विघटन गरेर अन्तरमि सत्ताको निर्माण गर्नु हो । ..... यिनै प्रवृत्तिहरू थिए, जसले १२ बुँदे समझदारीको विरोध गरेका थिए । अहिले तिनै पुराना शक्तिहरू आठबुँदे सहमतिको विरुद्धमा छन् । ...... संसद् त अन्तरमिकालका निम्ति संविधानसभामा जानका लागि केही दिन र केही साताका लागि मात्र भनेर उहाँहरूले माग गर्नुभएको हो । खासगरी गिरजिाप्रसाद कोइरालाले त्यो माग राख्नुभएको हो । अरू छ पार्टीलाई त संसद्को आवश्यकता नै थिएन । सूर्यबहादुर थापा प्रवृत्तिले त संसद् पुनःस्  थापनाको पहिलेदेखि नै विरोध गररिहेका थिए । जसले हिजो संसद् पुनःस्थापनाको माग नै गरेनन्, तिनीहरू संसद् चाहिन्छ भनेर उप|mनुको पछाडि कुन विचार र कुन स्वार्थले काम गरेको छ ? त्यो भनेको प्रतिगामी शक्ति हो, यथास्थितिवादी शक्ति हो । यो शक्ति अग्रगमनलाई रोक्न चाहन्छ । ....... अक्टोबर क्रान्तिको तयारी हामीले होइन, मोरयिार्टी र विभिन्न पार्टीभित्रका मोरयिार्टीहरूले गर्दैछन् । १९ दिनको जनआन्दोलनले निरङ्  कुशताको अन्त्य गर्‍यो, राजतन्त्रको अन्त्य त गरेन ! यहाँ त राजतन्त्रको अन्त्य गरेर लोकतान्त्रिक गणतन्त्रलाई संस्थागत गर्नु छ । ...... मोरयिार्टीले नै नेपाललाई अक्टोबर क्रान्तितिर धकेल्दै लगिरहेका छन् । ....... त्यसपछि संसद् र हाम्रो जनसत्ताको विघटन गर्ने र वैकल्पिक व्यवस्था गर्ने कुरामा छलफल हुनुपर्ने थियो । तर, प्रक्रिया नै सुरु गर्न चाहिरहेका छैनन् । ...... संविधानसभाको निर्वाचनको प्रक्रियाबारे छलफल गर्न पनि कोही चाहिरहेका छैनन् । ....... संसद्बाट झिनामसिना सुधारहरू गर्ने जुन प्रयत्न भइरहेका छन्, त्यसबाट संविधानसभाको निर्वाचनलाई औचित्यहीन बनाउन खोजिएको भान हामीलाई भइरहेको छ । ...... कसैले कसैलाई विस्थापन गर्नेभन्दा पनि नयाँ शक्ति अगाडि आउने हो । इतिहासको आवश्यकता जसले पूर्ति गर्छ, त्यही अगाडि आउँछ । ...... आठबुँदे सहमतिअनुसार अन्तरमि संविधान निर्माण गर्ने, संसद्को विकल्प निर्माण गर्ने र अन्तरमि सरकार निर्माण गरेर अगाडि जाने जुन कार्यभार हो, त्यसमा तदारुकताका साथ अगाडि जानुपर्दथ्यो, सरकारबाट ढिलाइ भइरहेको छ । ....... अन्तरमि विधानमा नै गणतन्त्रको घोषणा गराँै भन्ने हाम्रो प्रस्ताव हो । त्यो शक्ति र त्यो हैसियत वर्तमान राजनीतिक शक्ति र सरकारले राख्छ भन्ने हाम्रो मान्यता हो । किनभने, जनआन्दोलनको म्यान्डेट पनि त्यही हो । ......... राजतन्त्र राख्ने कि नराख्ने भन्ने कुरा पहिल्यै टुङ्गो लाग्दा नै संविधान बनाउन सजिलो हुन्छ । राजतन्त्रको टुङ्गो जनआन्दोलनले लगाइसकेको छ । ........ शाही सेनालाई लोकतान्त्रीकरण गर्ने र पुनःसंरचना गर्ने कुरामा सहमति बन्न सक्छ । ....... नेपाली जनताको आकाङ्क्षाको प्रतिनिधित्व हामीले गररिहेका छौँ । राज्य र समाजको पुनःसंरचना ऐतिहासिक आवश्यकता बनेको छ । त्यो आवश्यकता पूरा हुनुपर्छ । ......... समस्या हल भएन भने चुप लागेर बसिँदैन । राज्य र समाजको पुनःसंरचनाको जुन आधारभूत एजेन्डा हो, त्यो पूरा नभएसम्म सङ्घर्ष जारी रहन्छ । हामीले सकेनाँै भने अरूले जारी राख्छ । .......... हामी एमाले हुँदैनाँै । एमाले जतिबेला सत्तामा गयो, ऊ पुरानै सत्तामा गयो । त्यहाँ राज्य र समाजको पुनःसंरचनाको कुरै थिएन । राजतन्त्रको अन्त्य गर्ने कुरा पनि थिएन, अरू संरचनागत परविर्तनको कुरा पनि थिएन । तर, अहिले हामी राजतन्त्रको अन्त्य गर्दैछौँ । राज्य, समाज र अर्थतन्त्रको पुनःसंरचना गर्दैछाँै । .......... आठबुँदे सहमतिले नै भनेको छ कि हतियार व्यवस्थापन, अन्तरमि संविधान, अन्तरमि प्रतिनिधि संस्थाको निर्माण सबै सँगसँगै हुन्छन् । यी सबै कुराहरू हल गरेर मात्रै सबै कुरा अगाडि बढ्छन् भन्ने हाम्रो सहमति हो । हतियार व्यवस्थापन बाधक हुन्छ भन्ने हामीलाई लाग्दैन । शाही सेनाको हतियार लोकतन्त्रविरोधी हो । त्यसको ठीकसँग व्यवस्थापन भयो भने जनमुक्ति सेनाको हतियार व्यवस्थापन समस्या हुँदै हँुदैन । ........ संविधानसभाको निर्वाचन नभएसम्म शाही सेना ब्यारेकमा बस्छ, हाम्रो जनमुक्ति सेना जसको सातवटा डिभिजन छ, सात क्ष्ाेत्रमा बस्छन् । क्षेत्र तोकिन्छ । त्यसको मूल व्यवस्  थापन हामी आफँै गर्छौं । त्यसलाई सहयोग गर्नका निम्ति, अनुगमन गर्नका लागि राष्ट्रसङ् घलगायतका संस्थाहरूबाट सहयोग लिन्छाँै भन्ने हाम्रो समझदारी हो ।
