The West, news media & conspiracy, useless for Sri Lanka
The previously inconspicuous island nation Sri Lanka has become the center of attention for all of you since December 2009. Over the past 30 years all you heard on this small country was a suicide bomber blasting its citizens to bits and smithereens.
The whole problem for you is that Sri Lanka used its own laws, constitution, local strategies and grass-root-level thinking to wipe out an internationally- fed and supported brutal terrorism. Yes, that is correct – the Tamil Tiger terrorism, funded and coordinated with Your political, financial, Western-based liberal backing and support, has nearly destroyed this for Portuguese, Dutch and British colony with 30-years of killings, bombings, destruction and economic drain.
Every country in the world has its own government, constitution, rules and laws, traditions and cultures. Those are the Very reasons for them being separately governed by their democratically elected or Communist governments. The constitutions and laws adopted and tabulated in every country have been chosen by its own people, for its own people based on their ethical standards, traditions, heritage, local style of governance and penal code, level of discipline and people’s thinking & governing structure.
Lanka, any more than they are ignored and renders useless for Middle-Eastern countries where Islamic Laws are the local norm and standard. World media and journalists, here is a challenge for you: Write about the penal codes and deterrent punishment schemes applied in Arab nations, including beheading, stoning-to-death, chopping off fingers and limbs for criminal activities as being viewed by Western nations and society as "barbaric", "Inhuman" and "against human-rights".
Then you should carry out a 10-year campaign to convince those nations to change their laws to become more "forgiving" and "crime-friendly" as yours. Oh wait, that will never happen – as the Arab nations are oil and financially Rich and they have loads of money to buy you, your hand and your pen off. Aljazeera, BBC, CNN, Guardian, Times and other electronic and print media organizations, please note… Am I not correct? You Western & Oil rich-countries-funded media organizations want to control the world’s political, energy and financial resources to their own monetary and controlling advantages.
The same ethics and worldwide-rules together with Mass Media Corporations have also Failed to highlight the Children being dragged away by LTTE Tamil Tiger Terrorists to be brainwashed and trained as Suicide Bombers and LTTE front-line brigade? The UN and the world KNEW about LTTE using Child soldiers as young as 13 years!! Where were the Western Nations, particularly the Liberal Canadian PM Paul Martin, Jean Chrétien, Gordon Brown, David Miliband, Eric Solheim, Hillary Clinton, John Kerry and the EU, etc?
The same Human rights laws, worldwide-governing rules self-imposed by the Western nations have FAILED to prevent former British PM Tony Blair invading Iraq to kill Saddam Hussain with the claim of the elusive “Weapons of Mass Destruction”. Why didn’t all you world leaders subject yourselves to shame when your forces (including the US Marines) raped young teenage girls while their helpless families looked on and then killed them all - – calling them “ Sand Niggers”? How many innocents died during your raids and attacks of Iraq and Afghanistan? You are aware of the figures. You call them “Collateral Damage”.
The Western Allied Forces with the world’s most sophisticated and advanced Reconnaissance and weapons hardware and software, with precision-guided missiles, satellite technology that reads the number of hair follicles on a face could not catch the prime suspect of all your problems, Osama Bin Laden. But little Sri Lanka equipped with its own intelligence, limited technology weapons hardware, and their determination, focus, sacrifice by the local military, and its valiant soldiers braving thick jungle, lagoons and swamps fought the world’s most ruthless terror outfit LTTE.
These terrorists had a ground attacking force, a suicide squad, an air force, a naval operation and an underwater submarine unit. No other military in the world Ever could to fight an outfit as such in such hostile battle environment and Win! Fighting in the middle east is easy – open desert, sand dunes and rough sand/limestone terrain. Last time the US fought a war in similar conditions as Sri Lanka, they lost big – Remember Vietnam war?
So you destabilize countries that Do NotT adhere to You slave masters’ wishes or whoever will not help them get wealthier, more powerful and more in control. Your Divide-and-rule style already destroyed Sri Lanka for over 500 years of colonization, stole all of its riches and heritage and ruined its cultures and peasantry, its environment-friendly farming and irrigation systems developed over 2500 years. It is continuing to this day through the disguise of international media campaigns driving pre-fabricated lies and rumours channelled in to unsuspecting Sri Lankans, who would believe that the sky was falling on their heads, if published in the papers. You have dragged the Buddhist monks in Sri Lanka to spray the poison of division to weaken this nation through allegiance with its opposition to topple the democratically-elected government and get one of your henchmen to be the President of this nation. Ranil Wickramasinghe and Sarath Fonseka were your choices for marionettes.
Fortunately for Sri Lanka, its people are much smarter than the smartest and the most cunning intelligence officers you ever had. After more than 500 years of torture, crusades, looting, killings, brainwashing, threats, conversions while subject to colonization under several crowns of the Europe, Sri Lanka’s cultural heritage and its majority Sinhalese and minority Tamils coexist harmoniously with common places of worship between Buddhists and Hindus. Descendents and converts from the colonial crusaders (today’s Christian Sri Lankans) also live in peace together with all other religious and ethnic types including Muslim population. Sri Lanka has had cross-religious and cross-cultural contributions to its national unity and harmony over the centuries past.
Sri Lanka was bullied, intimidated and outcast from the Commonwealth – This was the best thing that could have happen to Sri Lankan in its history: to finally remove themselves from the Common Looters or Stolen Wealth (where is the wealth that is common?) , as the Portuguese, the Dutch and the Britons looted the country’s wealth, leaving little else for peoples of the land. The loot was neither returned to Sri Lanka, nor was there an International public apology from the former Colonial Masters upon them realizing of their “Inhuman”, “Barbaric”, and “Unethical” massacres of the Island’s inhabitants during their invasions and Crusades.
Millions of local peasants were brutally murdered to drive “Fear” into their heads and be loyal to invaders and their crowns. The very invaders destroyed the forests and killed tens of thousands of animals to extinction. (refer to documented proof of a British Colonialist who killed 10,000+ elephants in the Horton Plains of Sri Lanka and drove the highland species to extinction). Lately, whereupon you leaders have come to your Liberal senses or civilized senses, do you contend and concur that was justice served to Sri Lanka and its people, fauna and flora? Patriotic Sri Lankans of all its ethnic myriads will collect more than One Million Signatures from worldwide to demand an International Public Apology from the Colonial masters and the Dutch and the British governments and Crowns.
Mr. Gordon Brown, your bullish attitudes and intimidation of your co-workers and staff were exposed yesterday in London news items. Obviously, the British do not welcome bullish behaviour and certainly disapprove intimidation, hence you were worried about British public image ahead of mid-2010 elections and denied all that, while your spouse defended your “bullish personality”. However that may be in Britain, Sri Lanka Will Not tolerate your bullying and intimidation of this island nation, its leader and its people, one bit.
Mr. Brown, you and your colleague David Miliband insulted attempted to compromise the sovereignty and honour of Sri Lankan multi-ethnic society and government today with the attendance addressing of the global Tamil Forum in SUPPORT of separatist Tamil militancy for self-ruled separate state in Sri Lanka. How would British parliament react if Sri Lankan President or its Cabinet Minister pledges support for Osama Bin Laden and his terror in public? What would have been the situation if the incumbent leader of Sri Lanka supported IRA and Jerry Adams in early 1980’s against British imperialism?
Mr. Brown, you and your bastardized Foreign Secretary Miliband can give half of Britain to World Tamil militants/Diaspora and grant them self-determination from British rule, as that will NEVER happen in Sri Lanka. Then you can recognize them under independent “Tamil Homeland” label and offer GSP+ concessions to them on a platter. It’s about time you practised Divide-and-Rule on British soil, and with what other people than Tamil Tiger proxies!!!
Let’s make it very clear, Mr. Brown: Your and Miliband’s greed and bullishness to stay in power with liberal and minority votes in the UK as much as in Canada and elsewhere will not determine or compromise Sri Lanka’s territorial integrity, its tight to security, its future, its constitution, its right to self-rule and govern, its fabric of democracy and its Independence from your country’s colonial masters, AKA glorified former slave-runners. Remember, Sri Lanka destroyed and eliminated 30-years of Terrorism and brought peace and harmony to its people.
Your right-eye views and opinions about Sri Lanka is through media tabloids run by political parasites who have hardly seen the true reality of this country. Your left-eye gets the view from Tamil Tiger sympathisers that talk about an atrocious and fantasy land where their leader was using child soldiers for suicide missions and for their de facto ground fighting outfit. Were You and your unwise bloke Miliband not aware of that? Did you not read the UN reports? Also remember that the Tamil Diaspora asking for a separate state and militancy through fund-raising in your country are Your problem now. Yes, yours for keepsake. Let them run credit card scams and gas station debit scams to rob hard-working English folks. Same Diaspora took London streets to ransom around this time last year at a tremendous cost to your country, running it to near bankruptcy. This same Diaspora Will help you drain British economy through welfare and handout benefit dependence.
Racist segregation and upheavals/uprisings among ethnic factions in a multi-cultural society is unavoidable and the Western world has come to terms with such acts. Heard of White Supremacists, Ku Klux Klan aka KKK, Skin Heads, Hell’s Angels, Neo-Nazi’s, pro-Nazi’s that are increasing in membership? Lately, Black and Asian racial groups fighting in European and North American countries, due to mismanagement and allowing polarized, mono-communities to crop up in neighbourhoods, instead of spreading a mixture of ethnicities in dwellings. Why don’t you work on them and leave Sri Lanka’s problems to be tackled by themselves. All of you World’s Leaders should stop policing little Sri Lanka and start cleaning up your own acts, be responsible and accountable for your actions and contributions to our world’s problems and chaos. Your parasitic contacts at Newsmedia can “sweeten” the actual facts and incidents to cover up your act and twist blame on others.
On Feb 21st 2010 Canada witnessed results of harbouring LTTE terrorists and their proxies(“freedom fighters” in another land) when they attacked the office that publishes a Tamil newspaper Uthayan in predominantly Tamil-populated (polarized mono-cultural community) Toronto East, AKA Scarborough. Reason: because the editor went to Sri Lanka to meet with Sri Lankan President Mahinda Rajapakse and pledged support of peaceful Canadian Tamils to rebuild the war-torn North-East areas to help settle internally displaced people. Bob Rae and Jim Karrygiannis of Toronto East ridings will surely know the names and whereabouts of the “unknown” and “unseen” Canadian-Home grown-Tamil-Tiger-Terrorists who did not leave any evidence or witnesses identical to two previous attacks on a Buddhist Temple not far from the newspaper office. Yet Canada let out 76 Tamil Tiger asylum seekers who sailed to Vancouver in a Tiger-owned ship that was used to transport RDX and PETN, proven by three different sample readings inside the ship’s hold. None of the refugees had identity documents.
Interpol and an internationally acclaimed terror expert Prof. Rohan Gunaratne warned Canada of the internationally wanted terrorists among the crew. But Canada’s Common Loot attitude gave the middle finger to Sri Lanka and terror experts and accommodated these mass-murderers at taxpayers’ expense to be integrated in to Canadian society. Well done Canada! How did you establish/verify their actual names, dates and places birth, background checks, etc?
Those countries which harboured LTTE terrorists and their proxies will suffer from reprisals by Tamil Militia who found refuge there, during the anniversary marking of the end of LTTE and its barbaric leaders. In Canada, National Security is being alerted (today’s National Post) while the Brussels-based International Crisis Group (whose President and CEO is Louise Arbour, the former Supreme Court of Canada justice, and a Board member is former United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan) has warned in its report on Feb 24th 2010 that Tamil Diaspora sympathetic towards LTTE will likely resort to local violence in host countries. This happened three times in Canada – Tamils set fire to a Sri Lankan Restaurant and a Buddhist temple (twice) in Toronto, while they have damaged the Sri Lankan High Commission building in Ottawa. They did no less in Britain. That was just the beginning. Hatred against Sri Lanka was injected to the younger generations by LTTE operatives in your countries to brainwash these children who has never set foot in Sri Lanka, just the same way they have brainwashed and fooled you.
The irony of Western World was further established and consolidated yesterday Feb 23rd 2010 when a NATO attack in southern Afghanistan killed 27 innocent civilians. When Sri Lanka was at the war and if any civilians got killed in counter attacks by its military, it was a far outcry of inhuman manslaughter, violation of human rights – that Western World’s ad hoc military tribunals in Ireland has already declared Sri Lankan Military and the government have committed war crimes. Must I remind you all about the US military’s inhumane treatment of Iraqi POW’s in Abu Gharib prison, where the victims were stripped naked and tortured/abused verbally, sexually and physically?
Despite efforts by all your Western allied forces and nations (read NATO), their training & installing West-friendly “governments” in Afghanistan and Iraq, have you succeeded in achieving lasting peace in either countries? Has not the war against terror spread to Pakistan and several other countries by now, with the crackdown on Al-Qaida hideouts?
Mr. George Bush said “The United States will not negotiate with terrorists”. But, Sri Lanka tried negotiate with terrorists Four times – All failed; all four times due to unilateral dishonouring of ceasefire agreements by the LTTE terrorists which used it to fortify forces, stockpile weapons and replenish ammunition while You and your cohorts/agents watched.
Perhaps, All You Honourable Sir's And Madams ought to stop the crusade against Sri Lanka and try ONCE to learn from its own experience of existence and win over terrorism – the worst kind according to your own measures. I repeat, Sri Lanka finally Defeated Decimated, Anihilated Terrorists that you fed, upheld, sponsored, supported and depended on for Diaspora votes. We Won against terrorism with basic Military strategy – as talks and lots of it – failed… yes, Your style of negotiation Did Not work for Sri Lanka. People in Sri Lanka Now live without worrying about being blown to smithereens and to be sure to go home to their families and children after a hard day’s work. That was an accomplishment None of you could achieve in the “modern” world after the Second World War. Sri Lanka Defeated Terrorism their way. Again, Your methods Failed to work in Sri Lanka.
All you World Leaders, please take note: Sri Lanka will rise from its dark ages, as the local country boy Mahinda Rajapakse knows what is best for his country and his people. After all, the majority of the country placed him right back at the helm for the second time. Corruptions will happen irrespective of the country or government like the Watergate, Blackwater & Halliburton scandals in the US, Health, Lottery & Sponsorship scandals in Canada, IOC bribed by the US in Los Angelis for favourable US win decisions during 1984 Olympics, and thousands more.
For Ptolemy, this island famous for its spices and thick forests was Taprobane, for European invaders it was Ceylan, Ceylon, and for most of inhabitants it was Heladiva, Sri Lanka and Illankai. It belongs to Sinhalese, Tamil, Muslim, Burghers, Malays, Borah’s, Buddhist, Hindu, Christian, Catholic and all other religions that exist there. These people elected a leader, a President Mahinda Rajapakse that brought peace back to this island. North and the East part of Sri Lanka will be developed at their own pace, with help from the good friends Russia, China, India, Pakistan, Iran, etc. They will build up their nation with their hands and sweat.
They will become a strategic country with developed-nation status using their methods, their governments, their style and their people. There is no other country between India and Antarctica in the Indian Ocean than the pretty shaped Island Sri Lanka. Keep your dirty hands off of its affairs. If you must see the true reality, try visiting as a tourist and experience the real true warm smile, hospitality, beauty and harmony of its beautiful and peace-loving people working together hand-in-hand to make things better.

A HYPOCRITE FROM PARADISE
A HYPOCRITE FROM PARADISE
"For it is truly the Only Paradise On Earth!" - Hettiarachchi
So, why are you living in cold, cruel Canada?
Mr. Dias, You comment is
Mr. Dias,
You comment is rather a very personal attack to the writer.
I believe the reason for anyone’s living in Canada or elsewhere is their personal business and concern. Most likely, it is perhaps to stay away from corrupted, unconstructive, disruptive and jealous people like yourself. Sadly it took the guts and courage of a Sri Lankan-born living overseas to write strong letter of ground reality on international politics. Some conniving, cowardly and grumpy folk like yourself living in Sri Lanka are only capable of criticizing and finding faults in everything, while embracing DIRTY foreign funds, NGO's and their parasitic, unpatriotic brainwashing soap with ulterior motives. Many Sri Lankans living overseas have taken the opportunity to defend their native land's honour and integrity here in the foreign field where supportive and funding battle conditions are far more favourable for Tamil Diaspora. It is the COUNTRY, ITS INTERGITY, THE LAND, ITS BEAUTY, ITS HERITAGE, ITS ANCIENT HISTORY AND ITS PEOPLE IN THE PERIPHERY THAT SRI LANKAN DIASPORA LOVE AND RESPECT.
Sri Lankan Diaspora in the USA, Canada, Europe, Australia (including some intelligent and wonderful Tamil people) have contributed much to the victory of war against LTTE Terror, in case you were ignorant or unaware of it. This letter appears to intend SAFEGUARDING SRI LANKA'S HONOR, RESPLENDENCE, TERRITORIAL INTEGRITY AND ITS COURAGOUS PEOPLE.
IN THAT REGARD MR. DIAS, interestingly, it APPEARS THE HYPOCRITE is NONE OTHER THAN YOURSELF!.
A RUFFLED BIGOT Yet another
A RUFFLED BIGOT
Yet another Sinhalese-Buddhist bigoted bird with his feathers ruffled.
"... strong letter of ground reality on international politics..." – Jack99
You mean your ground reality. Right? The reality that made the Sri Lankan nation the killing fields of Asia; the reality that resulted in the deaths of over 120,000 lives due to supremely idiotic actions of a Sinhalese-Buddhist polity; the reality that took the lives of over 6,500 Sinhalese soldiers and untold number of young Tamils over a mere period of 18 months (more lives than Americans troops lost in the entire Iraq invasion); the reality that made the 2nd wealthiest Asian nation in 1948, a failed state in a matter of few decades; the reality that has made Sri Lanka a favorite supplier of maids, drivers, and laborers to once camel drivers of the middle-east; the reality that caused 11 odd ex US ambassadors to write to Mr. Rajapaksa about their concerns about the deterioration of democracy in the nation; the reality that caused 427 out of 428 US congress-persons to pass a resolution condemning the IDP efforts of the Sri Lankan govt; the reality that caused the US govt. to cease almost all its aid to the nation; the reality that has caused the worst ever Sri Lanka/West-US bilateral relations; the reality that caused pres. Obama to recognize Tamil reporter Tissanayagam for what the US president characterized as a victim of gross violation of free expression; the reality that caused candidate pres. Barack Obama in Nov. 2007 at Google headquarters in the Silicon Valley to declare that the greatest challenge of the 21st Century is our incapacity to accept others who are unlike us AND use Sri Lanka's Sinhalese-Tamil conflict to illustrate his declaration;
Jack, please don't get me going; just know that I too am all for peace and prosperity in also my land of birth which I left very many eons ago. Also, know for a fact that the retrogressive and idiotic approaches that bigots like you and Hettiarachi of the North American Sinhalese diaspora advance are hugely more harmful than helpful to convince Canadian and American legislators. A better approach is to acknowledge the mistakes, apologize, bring closure to past errors, engage with anyone willing to talk, negotiate, reform, converge, and forge forward together to build a prosperous nation. You see, but that is never possible with bigots like you - because superior minded Mahavamsians like you and Hettiarchichi are emotionally incapable of rising above your inferiorities to become effective interlocutors. People like you rather reminisce on the now irrelevant past glories of your Sinhalese kings and never able to effectively deal with the global realities of the present. If you and the likes of Hettiarachi think that the Sinhalese diaspora can get the West / N. America to give a sympathetic hearing to your concerns by being confrontational and insulting to them, then there is only one certain outcome: the Tamil diaspora will win hands down. With cerebral infants like you and Hettiarchi in the Sinhalese diaspora, no wonder they (the Tamil diapora) is winning. My friend, shape-up and GET REAL and cease your Sinhalese-Buddhist superiority nonsense, you know we are not!
Donkey Dias, Your mono-ethnic
Donkey Dias,
Your mono-ethnic centered bashing is racist and despicable. Obviously you are an LTTE supporting maggot who lost with the boss-clang of terrorist mass-murderes in May 2009 and managed to crawl to another country aftger you licked some foreign behind.
Without foreign-backing, you are nothing. you are worthless. Look at Sri Lanka, Tamils and SInhalese are living in peace once again. Violence-promoting Tamil diaspora lost big time too. These losers have lost the confidence they artificially created in host countries' public with pack of lised exactly like you have written above, Donkey Dias. The British whitefolks and the police hate to hear the word Tamil, after ordeal and delays they had to go through during your fultile protests last year. I hear same is true in Toronto, as well.
One more thing, there is NO sinhelese diaspora. There is only Sri Lankan Diaspora.
Soon the US congress will come behind Sri Lanka, as they have now recognized that the US can not ignore the strategic importance of Sri Lanka to the US - geographically and politically. It is because of violent losers like you that used innocent Tamils as Shielding to cover your LTTE losers to protect from being obliterated too soon. I agree with the writer that Sri Lanka belongs to ALL, not just Sinhalese or Tamils any part thereof. If you can not accept to live in a multi-ethnic, multi-cultural society like Sri Lanka, and promote Mono-cultural, mono-ethnic, Tamils-only mation with self-determination, you do not belong any country.. just go settle down in your hell-hole in Tamil Nadu. But I still believe you a good person who can make a change in your life to see how the Tamils in Colombo, Kandy and the rest of the South live happily amongst all others in Sri Lanka. Did you know that Sri Lanka's largest gold jewellry shop street is 100% owned by Tamils and is located in Colombo? Did you know there are Tamil Cabinet ministers and MP's, Police and Justice chiefs, and Maharajah Organization (100% Tamil owned) is one of the most successful business giants, all in Sri Lanka, particularly colombo? If there is discrimination as you say, why all that? Did you know Colombo subdivisions 1,2,3,4,5,6,8,9,10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 and Wellawatta are predominately Tamil populated ares in the southern Sri Lanka? Did you also know that the entire tea plantation workforce is Tamil and they live well with the rest of ethnic population? Please calmyourself down and see the reality. if not, as the writer invites, visit the country and see it for yourself to make that change.
One more thing Yo Dias,
One more thing Yo Dias, Sinhala Buddhists are NOT any more superior than any other ethno-religious faction in Sri Lanka. They do not have a single more right than their Tamil, Muslim counterparts anywhere in the world (yes, including SL). It so happens that Sri Lanka has MORE Sinhalese Buddhists as majority, as much as Arab countries have vast majority of Muslims/Ismaists, the Europe and North America has far more White-Christians, due to no fault of their own. If Sinhalese Buddhists want to protect their stand as Majority, as Majority Rules in Democracy, however much that may suck or you may dislike, that would be inevitable. Just like White Majority wins elections in Western countries. SL government has many Tamil MP's, Ministers, Head of Police, Head of Justice, etc, irrespective of political party. Do Lackshman Kadirgamar (should have been SL's President today), Arumugam Thondaman, Pillayan, Karuna, Siva Pasupathi, K.W. Devanayagam, Paskaralingam, Rudra Rajasingham, et al ring bells in your used-up engine oil-filled head?
Another point I must add, citizens of almost every country have found new homes in other countries due to migration work force distribution and better/gainful economic prosperity/benefits. Almost ALL the countries in the world have adopted multi-cultural, multi-faith, multi-ethnic and multi-communal societies and population structure. In a world moving AWAY from single-ethnic, single-race, single-minded social/government systems, WHY DOES TAMIL DIAPORA want to do exact diametric opposite and fantasize about creating a Tamil-only, Hindu/Christian-Only self-determined independent nation devoid of any other ethnic, racial or caste based people? Under the circumstances, Tamil Diaspora supporting this asinine and sick ideology must have inherited crackpot and fiddlestick brains fried in sump oil. It would have been nicer if the writer him/herself of this article pointed that out. Everyone MUST respect and accept the people with different backgroungs, ethnicities, faiths, castes, etc. Afterall, you and I are all citizens of the Earth no matter what.
