2. Unfortunately this can't be pinned on Bush ...

... the Maoist rebels (Communist Party of Nepal) in Nepal have been at it for quite some time, since 1996. Their goal is to abolish the monarchy. Actually I've heard that they are quite nice to tourists, according to a friend that recently visited near Nepal. According to my friend, they are perhaps the only terrorist group that will actually write you an IOU if you hand over some bucks to them.
