We all thought that the government has proved beyond doubt that the channel 4 tape was a fake and on the refusal of the BBC to admit it the government has gone to Courts in UK on this matter but Tissaranee Gunasekere writing to the Asian Tribune on Sunday the 20th December 2009 tells us that the Channel 4 tape depicting the execution of Tiger prisoners by Lankan soldiers has been validated by an independent international expert. The following is a quote from her posting ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-Threats from within and Spectres from the PastƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚
Begin quote
ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚¦Sri Lanka has lost the GSP+, as a direct outcome of the Rajapakses unwillingness to abide by international humanitarian laws and standards. The threat to sue the EU is but a lie to pacify the electorate. The calls for an impartial inquiry into alleged war crimes will grow, particularly given the validation by an independent international expert of the Channel 4 tape depicting the execution of Tiger prisoners by Lankan soldiersƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚¦
End quote
ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ As far as the GSP+ is concerned I have made a suggestion to the government how to handle this GSP+ both in the Sinhale Hot News and in the Lanka Web under the title ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-Government gets tough with the EUƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚. If the government were to accept the idea the rest of the world will see the EU as an embodiment of hate.
ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ The government now stands accused by this journalist who writes copiously to the Island newspaper. What has the government got to say to defend itself?

What channel 4 showed was the doctered vedio poorly dubbed in Sinhalese. The original vedio was in Tamil and looked authenticated. What Times online must have authenticated is the original one in Tamil. Most likely the LTTE was killing surrendered SLA personnel, taking off thier clothes and wearing them to make the vedio. Times Online does not publish any comments against thier post, they sure have something to HIDE. They are carrying out FRAUD against SL.

This doctored video surfaced for the second time after Mr.Fonseka’s unwarrented outburst against Gotabaya Rajapaksa. Few months ago, it was proved beyond shadow of doubt, this video was an attemp to discredit Sri Lanka by LTTE sympathisers. The “Times Online” carries one sided articles for reasons only known to them. Any refute is never published, and whatever comments published are from supporting views. This is not a news service to be taken seriously.
Sri Lankans have a choice, They way they vote on Jan 26th can silence these dogs forever.

Mr aravinda, you got it wrong in your last sentance. She is a bitch not a dog as you state. These are opinionated journalists who cannot change. INDIAN RAW hires them and gives them big money. If they change and become Sinhala centric, then they will be eliminated without any hesitation. Thank you Mr. L Jayasooriya for putting this on Lankaweb.
