Prodigle sons and daughters

I had the chance to meet a hardcore LTTE sympathizer few days back. In fact you could call him an ex LTTE member 'cause he was actively involved in pro LTTE activities like collecting ransom money, in the past in his prime times. Now he is a man in his 50s and runs a small time grocery in South Wales.

My first question to him was "what happened to LTTE ?", in a quiet sarcastic way I must admit.

He went really ballistic and answered my one line question with a thousand lines answer. He was obviously upset and furious ! I could not comprehend most of his out burst. From what I gathered, for him Prabhakaran is not dead ! Apparently it's just a part of the plan. According to him he is still well alive and safe and planning the future of the Tamils. He still believes in an Eelam and not happy to recognize the central government as the governing body of Sri Lanka.

Even if we destroy thousand Prabhakarans or annihilate thousand LTTE terrorist gangs these people will never change. Even though labeled as Tamils the diaspora tamils are totally different to our Sri Lankan Tamils in there thinking and attitude.They are driven by hate and vengeance.


Look at these people. Are they truly representing the poor Tamils in Sri Lanka? Has this girl ever being to Sri Lanka? I wonder! All they are worried about is their own well being. Most of these people settled down in UK and other countries as refugees. To maintain their jolly life they need a war in Sri Lanka. That's all they are worried about.

These people are not Sri Lankans anymore. They burn our flag. Demand others to boycott Sri Lanka. These people are the real enemies of Sri Lanka. All these photos should be fed to the Sri lankan intelligence database and they should be banned from entering our country in the future.

It is governments responsibility to look after the innocent Tamils in Sri Lanka and we should make every effort to win their trust which we lost in the past. That is the only way to rise as a one nation, one country. More importantly that is the best way to silence these worthless and ungrateful Tamil diaspora.

Answer to Times allegation on Sri Lankan casualties

Following article gives the answers the Times allegation on Sri Lankan civilian casualties.Times article (refer to my post-Sri Lanka, UK's biggest enemy) catagorically mentioned that their figure of 20000, as the death toll, was based on UN report. Here the UN it self denying the knowladge of any such report or such number. Yet again Times is proven to be based on false figures to attack Sri Lankan government enviously. Shame on you!



Lets wait and see what Times have to say about this



UN did not underestimate Sri Lanka death toll: Ban

UNITED NATIONS (AFP) — UN chief Ban Ki-moon on Monday categorically rejected allegations the world body had deliberately underestimated the death toll in the ethnic conflict in Sri Lanka.

"I categorically reject -- repeat categorically -- any suggestion that the United Nations has deliberately underestimated any figures," he told the UN General Assembly.

He was reacting to press reports citing confidential UN reports that more than 20,000 civilians were killed by Sri Lankan army shelling.

"In regard to some reports in the media, I should emphasize that the final total is not yet known," the UN secretary general said. "Most of these figures do not emanate from the UN and most are not consistent with the information at our disposal."

Ban however made it clear that "whatever the total, the casualties in the conflict were unacceptably high -- as I have also said repeatedly."

Saturday, the London-based Amnesty International called for an independent probe into the number of civilians killed in the final weeks of Sri Lanka's civil war and also urged the UN to reveal its own estimates.

The call by the rights group followed a report in the Times of London newspaper on Friday citing confidential UN reports that more than 20,000 civilians were killed by Sri Lankan army shelling.

Commenting on the report, UN spokeswoman Michele Montas told a press briefing Monday: "The number of 20,000 is not a UN number."

She said she checked with UN officials in Colombo earlier in the day and the response was that "they have absolutely no idea where that number came from."

The Times of London report followed weeks of allegations that large numbers of civilians had been killed as the Sri Lankan army closed in on Tamil Tiger rebels and finally crushed the 30-year-old insurgency by the separatist Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) last month.

Amnesty's Asia Pacific director Sam Zarifi accused both sides of war crimes and called for an independent international probe.

The Colombo government, which has rejected demands by the UN Human Rights Council for a fact-finding mission on the war crimes allegations, on Friday angrily dismissed the Times report.

"These figures are way out," Sri Lankan defense ministry spokesman Lakshman Hulugalle said. "We totally deny the allegation that 20,000 people were killed."

Amnesty said, however, that it continued to receive reports of widespread human rights violations, with more than 280,000 people displaced by the recent fighting and now restricted to state-run welfare camps in the island's north.

Sri Lanka.. UK's Biggest Enemy

From The Times - May 29, 2009
Times photographs expose Sri Lanka’s lie on civilian deaths at beach(s0 they say)




link to the original article-http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/asia/article6383477.ece


This is the latest allegation used by UK media against the Sri Lankan government(SLG), with whom they are engaged in a fierce media war at the moment.

The way they behave and the amount of resources and power they use against SLG, makes one wonder, whether UK consider Sri Lanka as their biggest enemy in the world at this moment !. They carry out their attacks against SLG with such vengeance and arrogance.

In this offence against SLG, Times plays a major role as the front line brigade. This fact is so obvious for anybody who is following UK media, with regard to the Sri Lankan conflict.

Most of the times, knowingly they used fabricated reports and digital media, which were spread across the globe by late LTTE or pro-late LTTE propaganda machines. Also they kept there eyes and ears closed to the news which were in favour of SLG. Many a times there stories back fired and they were left in open naked, owing to false facts and figures they relied upon. But when it comes to bias reporting the UK media has no shame..

Have a look at their latest find. Just read the topic. They are so sure that SLG has lied about the civilian deaths and here they are proving it with their own little investigation. They have exposed everything ! Read their own words....

"An investigation by The Times into Sri Lanka’s civilian casualties, which was conducted in a week-long visit to Sri Lanka — has found evidence of a civilian death toll of 20,000, almost three times that cited previously. The majority perished under government guns."

For the sake of all of us, they have reached a nice round figure of 20,000 as civilian casualties. How convenient is that !.

And they give a breakdown of casualties as shown below, according to the injuries and worked out how many were killed by each party.

*January 2% gunshot wounds ( Caused by late LTTE) 80% shelling (Caused by SLG)
*February 15% gunshots 64% shelling

And then it goes on and on ........ what a laugh !

They have counted only the deaths caused by firearms. What about the innocents who were hacked to death and burnt alive in NFZ when they tried to escape? (Refer to my post "Define Human" http://harshajayman.blogspot.com/2009/03/definehuman.html)

How practical is this approach? And where did these data come from. Any reliable source? They must have had separate units of audit and census staff in the battle field. Intentions are clear. Any fool who comes up with some numbers, as long as they embarrass the SLG, they will use it. May be the direct orders from David Miliband.

And then they have these photos which they have captured during Ban ki Moon's recent visit to Sri Lanka. Very keenly they have got these photographs analyzed by some "military experts".

According to them, Figure 2 shows a place where the slain late LTTE members were buried. Figure 1 is showing the "mass civilian grave yards". Just by looking at those photos their "experts" have assessed the number of people died and most hilariously, who has killed them.

The slide show (click to watch) has 13 photographs and they clearly show how the late LTTE has kept the civilians as a human shield. Also they show late LTTE gun points, heavy artillery, vehicles and their command posts placed in NFZ. They were very careful not to mention any of these in their article. That's the motto. No matter what, don't blame the LTTE ! ( How ever, I later found out that these were briefly mentioned within a millisecond during the narration in the video footage)

So, armoured with these mere speculations they are yet again pointing the finger at SLG. Job well done, Miliband will say! Why are they so geared up to do this? Is it jealousy, that we as a nation did something that they couldn't even dream of doing or is it just fear, that they will loose there "Democratic big brother" status over the small nations?

The trend in the world, with regard to the conflict in Sri Lanka, is changing. It is changing in favour of Sri Lanka. The nations who frontiered together with UK and US are changing their stances now. Some willingly and others not so willingly, either support the SLG or rolling into a neutral position.

UK, on the other hand is still continuing with their onslaught.Refusing to change and refusing to accept the facts. The fact that they couldn't intimidate us via Miliband convoy, has insulted their arrogance very badly.(Poor Miliband, didn't he get some good treat from Gotabhaya!) That's why this has become so personal and that's why it is difficult for them to change. But they will change!. When they get isolated and cornered, they will change.

Until then the UK media will keep on entertaining us with their jokes and bailas. Read them and spice them up a little with your comments.Enjoy their jokes but break their theories. Write back fight back. It will make a difference!

Till next time.....

YES WE DID IT!

How to fight terrorism and insurgents ? Come and ask from Sri Lankans, ask from Mahinda and Gotabhaya. 

History was made. There was never a nation who could defeat terrorism completely with total annihilation. So many fights fought, battles won in the world. But not a single war was won by a one single nation before. 

We Sri Lankans did it ! We've set the standards! We've set the examples !

In the future all over the world people will refer to Sri Lanka to study about warfare. Names of our great war thinking tanks, will be mentioned. Our great novel military strategies will be discussed and analyzed over and over. Bravery of our foot soldiers will be appraised.

Mahihinda Rajapaksha......

The man who made all the difference. Such a commitment. Such a passion for the motherland!. More than winning the war what amazes me is how this man stood  his ground against all the pressure. That it self will make him the best.

We are a nation which was betrayed by our own leaders. All of our past leaders thought about the war. But nobody had guts to stand against the western world. They shivered and betrayed the nation, with the tail between their legs when ever US or UK come and shout at them. Such cowards and pimps ! Even now at this victorious movement I am sure that Ranil is on the phone with Norway to get advices to bring down Mahinda.

When Mahinda came to power and got his brothers around him people talked about the Rajapaksha Brothers Company. 

UNP wanted Gotabhaya out of the scene.

Well look What they have done ? Look how right Mahinda was. Brothers are the safest possible people to keep around for a King considering the quality of politicians we have. They are not just brothers. They are capable brothers who prove the point with their success. Basil is currently doing an excellent job of  lifting up the conditions in rural areas. I saw it with my own eyes last in April when I was in SL. Well I don't have to  go into details about Gotabhaya. But I just like to remind everybody how he dealt with Milliband. Man has got a real Sri Lankan back bone !

For the sake of our country right people were at the right jobs at the right times. Mahinda was blessed with these Tri service commanders who believed in targets than money to be at his right hand . We all know the quality of most of our military commanders who were there in the past. Corruption was up to the nose with them. If we had people like that in the office the it would have been bit difficult for Mahinda.

And then these guys.... Our own flesh and blood !

Well what can I tell about them. No words to describe there bravery.

Now we all know how the western world fight wars. Send a search team, get the GPS position, blow'em with bombs and shells. The coward way of doing it! British teams in Afghanistan now have trained dogs with cameras on their heads instead of 8 men teams !

Our boys fought a brutal  battle face to face with the enemy. As we all know the latter part of the war was fought completely with small arms with no artillery or air cover. 

Numerous earth bunds, Km long open fields, Suicide attackes, bombs, shells, rains against all odds they won the war for us in the best possible way. They sacrificed there own lives limbs and eyes all for us, for our children for a better Sri Lanka.

I humbly bow my head to your my friends....

Together as a nation ..... Yes we did it!

Obama, Hilary, Brown, Miliband.... well we can understand your frustration. We as a small nation has achieved something extra ordinary which you can't even dream of achieving despite of having all the military power in the world. 

Also it is pretty obvious why you are taking this issue so personally. It is not because you care about Tamil rights, no.... It is purely because you are furious that we are not intimidated by you anymore. Mahinda has shown the way for other small nations like us how to evade your arrogance. We have better friends now.

You always talk about terrorism and we have shown you how to deal with them. Stop your anger and enviousness against us and join us in the fight against terrorism.

After all thats what they say....If you can't beat them, join them.......

 

Tamils, hate and love

I still can remember....
Shocking news of the murder of 13 soldiers by Tamil separatists in Jaffna, hit us like a bomb. That was July 1983, well known as Black July.

People were on to the roads in no time to share their opinion and mostly their anger. Amongst them was me as a 14 yr old with my father. 

No body had heard a news like that before. Sri Lankan army was never challenged in that way. It was unbelievable. How dare the Tamils could do such a thing! There was no doubt whatsoever in anybodies mind. The culprits should be punished and punished heavily!

For the first time I saw Tamils as enemies. Most of the other people did too. 

As a result came the riots and people took the law into their hands. Generations of friendships amongst Sinhalese and Tamils were forgotten within minutes. Tamils were punished on sight. No body was spared, irrespective of there social states. Scores of innocent people payed the ultimate price with their lives for the sins which were done hundreds of miles away by some unknown people.

At that time I believed that Tamils were getting what they deserved and didn't have any sympathy towards them. Looking back I feel ashamed of myself for even thinking like that. 

Since then I have come a long way . So has the country too. Today looking at the Tamil IDPs our attitude towards them is totally reversed. Brings tears to my eyes when I see how much they have suffered. Nobody is spared. All of them look like walking skeletons. Deprived of all known basic needs in life. Ironically this time around they've been punished by their very own people who were once upheld as there patriotic saviors.

Instead of hate,love and sympathy is what we have towards them today.They are not our enemies any more. 

Lessons were learnt.Time to put the things right. Everybody is ready for a new country. A country where all can live in harmony.Sinhalese, Tamils and Muslims all as SriLankans.

Define Human

. 

These are some of the horrific pictures I received today of poor innocent people who were brutally murdered by LTTE in north.They have received this ultimate punishment for trying to escape from the war zone in north of Sri Lanka.

Some of them had been shot and others were allegedly burnt alive, obviously giving a strong message for the other civilians who are trapped in their area. 

These murderers, the self appointed saviors of Tamils in Sri Lanka, can we call them humans?These are their own people, the very people who they say they are fighting for! 

Forget about the killings. Have you seen the status of the innocent people who have already escaped from their grip? Suffering is written all over them. Malnourished, robbed and deprived of all the defined basic facilities of the civilized world. They suffer heavily at the hands of their own saviors.

When does the Tamil diaspore is going to realize these facts and stand against this murderous clan, the LTTE ?
