Three patriotic men MR, Gota and SF were working as a team until one night when India telephoned MR that a military coup was imminent. We first got the news from a Pakistani journalist Ashraf Javed in an article titled ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-India forces Sri Lanka to replace Gen. FonsekaƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚ published in the Nation in Pakistan. Later this was followed by an article ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-President and the GeneralƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚ by an Indian journalist Seema Sengupta that appeared in the Sinhale Hot News. Both articles can be read in the internet under their names. In response to Sema Sengupta under comments I asked her some questions. That was the last we heard of her. She must have been told to shut up by India.

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ I now quote in full, part of the article from the Nation in Pakistan. Readers could access this directly by typing in Google ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-India forces Sri Lanka to replace Gen. Fonseka by Ashraf JavedƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ Here is the quote:

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ LAHORE ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢¢”š¬…” The Sri Lankan General Sarath Fonseka who led troops to victory, defeating Tamil separatists after decades of war, was replaced on the advice of Indian Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh, who conveyed to Sri Lankan leadership that he had received credible intelligence about the possible coup against the Sri Lankan government.

Well-placed sources in Colombo disclosed to The Nation on Monday that after the annihilation of Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE), on the night of 21/22 May 2009, Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh called Sri Lankan leadership on telephone and discussed matters in the contest of intelligence.

Indian Prime Minister warned that intelligence reports indicated that democratic institutions in Sri Lanka were under threat from Sri Lanka Army (SLA).

ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-SLA and General Fonseka have become too powerful. The situation is dangerous as it sometimes happened in Pakistan and Bangladesh, where military got control of democratic institutions,ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚ the sources revealed while quoting the conversation that took place between Indian PM and Sri Lankan leader.

Above all, Indian Prime Minister also advised the Sri Lankan political leadership that they must act swiftly and order changes in senior leadership of Armed forces. End of quote.

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ So if Dr. Manmohan Singh had credible intelligence about the possible coup and that democratic institutions were under threat that evidence should still be there and the President could have got Sarath Fonseka arrested and charged with attempted treason but nothing has happened indicating that there was no truth to it. Please note above that the Indian Prime Minister has said that ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-SLA and General Fonseka have become too powerful etc.ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ If it is true that the above is what India told our President then what does that mean?

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ We know that the West wants to take revenge from MR and Gota for not obeying them and saving the LTTE. They had a Master Plan to use the LTTE to destabilize the whole region including the fragmentation of India using the LTTE that they hijacked from India.

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ India also wants to de-stabilize our country to get a foothold here with the intention of eventually annexing Sri Lanka and joining it with Tamil Nadu one day.

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ We have survived the infamous CFA and the betrayal of our elite long rangers all of whom were killed as a result of their names being divulged. We have survived Kumarathunge. We will survive this as well.
