Nepali children give the Maoist salute during celebrations for the tenth anniversary of the rebel uprising in the village of Tila in the Rolpa district, heartland of Maoist insurgents in western Nepal, February 13, 2006. Nepal's King Gyanendra will ultimately be exiled or executed because he has closed the door to any political compromise since seizing absolute power a year ago, the reclusive leader of the country's Maoist rebels said.
