Links to articles regarding continued unrest in Nepal including plans for a general strike to shutdown business. Nepal's government offices and most stores have already been closed for the last five days... |
Mainstream corporate media continues to whitewash the assasination of Nepal's royal family. The following links are from the largest paper in Nepal. There is a massive intimidation campaign underway by the new Nepalese ruler, and I have noticed that local media reports have become more subdued and less critical.
This is a huge story. What happened here was nothing less than a coup d'etat. Corporate media is attempting to portray this as an act by the now dead Crown Prince. These are lies, and evidence that something bigger is going on.
Here are the links:
