*Sri Lanka after the eradication of World's most brutal Terrorist movement! *

Sri Lanka, which should be an insignificant *tiny* country for the *powerful *Western countries but in reality is been interfered in her internal matters with the active collusion of homemade traitors and now with the latest breed of a disgruntled block merely to grab the votes to be in power.

This country has purged the most brutal Terrorist group as defined *even* by the FBI. It was a task that, the very same powerful nations who professed an impossible to achieve. Obviously, they knew better than Sri Lankan administration because they provided the most destructive weaponry and training to the Terrorists. Norwegians under CFA and others *abusing the diplomatic immunity *dispatched these items to “Good” terrorists on their own definition!

Anyway, that’s the past, now the same lot is preaching “democracy”, “freedom” and good governance! Why all this? Just because the Democratically elected President's administration *has arrested* the retired General Sarath Fonseka for publicly divulging sensitive military matters? These catch phrases are nothing new, they have been the "part and parcel of the Governments since 1977, with the compliments of the most cunning first ever President J.R.Jayawardena. Looks like "people have awoken from a deep slumber"!

If all those countries who cry foul on this action, for a moment if they wear the hat, Sri Lankan administration have worn, no sensible head of a country would react any different to what took place in Sri Lanka. This man publicly uttered things only a “traitor’ would do, for which many countries would execute him on the spot barred any interrogations, but out of decency Sri Lanka exercised a “Democratic” approach, and took him to custody, and gave his democratic rights to prove why he should not be punished at the *court-martial*. It’s up to those countries that indulge in hypocrisy to pinch their consciences and be ashamed of them!

Retired Gen. Sarath Fonseka may have been a good soldier, but, assessing on what he uttered during the Presidential elections, a statement that would not draw a single vote for him, makes one wonder, how on earth he lead the Army to a victory. My assessment is his subordinates overrode his commands and did what seemed sensible according to the situations. Something for those who shed crocodile tears to ponder about!

Presently, the country is rapidly progressing in development projects, mainly improving the much needed infrastructure right throughout the Island, if one tours the North and East once war tone areas, it gladdens the heart to see the Government's contribution towards ushering a bright future for innocent Tamils in those areas. When one observe these magnanimous efforts of the Government, it also saddens to see that the expatriate Tamil Diaspora’s futile efforts to gang up with the opportunistic disgruntled Western countries to punish the innocent people of Sri Lanka by depriving the financial aid that would have propelled the country to an accelerated progress.

The Government has invited the Tamil Diaspora to invest in the North and East to assist their kith and kin to improve and brighten their future, in addition to the Government's efforts. It is indeed sad to note, that help is not forth coming, they are only after the pound of Flesh in their destructive imagination!

Unfortunately, the defeated retired Gen. Sarath Fonseka’s supporters who cannot accept defeat gracefully have started to canvass anti Sri Lankan accusations, leading to exert pressure on the Western Nations to impose harsh punitive actions on the country. I believe the thinking people of the present World leaders will exercise sanity at this time in deed!

In conclusion may I humbly request those Nations who can make a difference in my Motherland to appreciate the brave effort by Sri Lanka in defeating a brutal terrorist movement and who have embarked to improve the living standards right across the country, to ignore unfounded whatever accusations leveled at the current administration and lend a helping hand without engaging in futile efforts in complicating issues.

Sri Lanka has enough talent and expertise to solve their issues effectively. Mark my words within two years, the entire country will enjoy the lasting PEACE, and in the meantime, the Western nations can devote their invaluable time in looking for solutions with those complicated issues at hand to grapple with. They certainly have to be contended or heave a sigh of relief for one less problem in the developing world!
