KATMANDU, Nepal Pro-democracy protests grew more violent Sunday as demonstrators defied curfews and poured out onto the streets for the fourth day in a row, storming a government hospital, burning government buildings and defiantly calling for the ouster of the king.

At least three people were reported to have been killed.

The coalition of seven political parties that called the strike, originally set to end Sunday, promised to continue the agitation "indefinitely." And Maoist rebels released a statement Sunday pledging to remove signs and statues representing the monarchy and threatening to have its guerrilla army take control of the nation's highways.

Also, the capital was plunged into darkness for 15 minutes Sunday night, as citizens heeded a call for a "blackout" protest.

put the CIA's next-door neighbor Gyanendra into power.

Time to pull out your Leonard Cohen records.

I expect full scale revolution on the streets of Kathmandu reasonably soon.

Expect Gyanendra and his sadistic son, Crown Prince Paras, to end up like Ceausescu!

No wonder our tax money is going to militariliy support the King.

We love kingdoms.

They are learning the the monarchy must be driven from power and a democratic republic established.
