REMEMBER: The West is experiencing the same terrorism Sri Lanka went through for 30 years

The only difference was the French terrorist shouted ‘Allahu Akbar’ while Sri Lanka’s LTTE terrorists shouted ‘Separate Tamil State’. In France between 1914 and 2014, some 150 people were killed in bombings, targeted assassinations, and plane hijackings. In January 2015 twenty three died from attacks as a result of Charlie Hebdo cartoon. 130 people died the same year in November in Central Paris. The latest has been the 84 deaths on Bastille Day. From January 2015 to July 2016, 230 people have died from terror attacks. The Tunisian the lorry driver shouted Allahu akbar!” before carrying out the attack. The LTTE shouts throughout 30 years while carrying out over 300 suicide attacks were for ‘Eelam’ separate state the same which the Tamil National Alliance is now seeking. Can the West at least now understand LTTE terrorism, that West still entertains elements of LTTE and why all terrorists and their supporters must now be dealt with? The LTTE leader and his ground-terrorists are dead but the ones supporting them are very much upto no good just like Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden is no more but Al Qaeda-linked terrorists are now entering the soil of nations that nurtured them.
The West cries ‘War on Terror’ while Prof. Michael Choudovsvky and an eminent list of others have qualified their statements with evidence to show that the Islamic terrorism is funded by the West with Muslim majority states supplying Wahhabi Islamic terrorists to realize West’s geopolitical goals.

- CIA has given arms to jihadists – ISIS is selling them on facebook! http://thefreethoughtproject.com/cia-weapons-syrian-jihadis-isis-selling-facebook/
Therefore, when media reports Al-Qaeda ‘planning major terror attack against West’ from Afghanistan” http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/05/22/al-qaeda-planning-major-terror-attack-against-west-from-afghanis/ shouldn’t we wonder why the West are fighting against the monsters they have created and why are so much of money being allocated for counter terrorism when it is going after the same entities they have created?
Terrorism can be stopped if West stops funding, training and arming terrorists. Its as simple as that.
It’s a case of a monster being created and unleashed and thereafter claiming to run after the monster but bombing others! The most flogged argument is ‘some Muslims attack the West in retaliation for Western violence aimed at Muslims”.
What arises from this is the question of how innocent lives have become victims of a group of maniacs with guns that have been supported by very powerful nations for their own political games. Who has gained? The arms industries fund both the terrorists and the countries which have been targeted. The counter terrorism experts end up securing plum jobs and telling us how to cure problems conveniently omitting to name the roots of the problem. The UN and its bodies and experts join in pulling out their book of rules that are only applicable to non-Western nations. The illegalities, interferences into Sri Lanka’s internal affairs by the entire UN system is testimony as is a report by some 55 organizations that claim UN bias against Syria https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/20160616-55-organisations-accuse-the-un-of-bias-in-its-humanitarian-operations-in-syria/
If all this is true what is worrying is that innocent armed forces personnel from the West are being sent to destroy the very people that their governments created and die in battle while the Islamic terrorists also end up dead though the supply continues. This is quite a frightening yet realistic scenario.
Is LTTE and now TNA a geopolitical ploy of West-India nexus?
Is the LTTE story the same? India stands guilty of first taking unemployed Sri Lankan Tamil youth and training them clandestinely in various camps throughout India and returning under tutelage of Indian intelligence with the explicit orders to destabalize Sri Lanka. That various LTTE fronts were operating from the West fundraising, providing material support and even having open offices to which Western politicians have no qualms about attending or even speaking atop their stages, some of these LTTE front leaders are VIP and regular visitors to even the UN and UNHRC and pushing for every word the LTTE had been demanding. These are no coincidence demands. The people of the West are only now beginning to realize the true nature of terrorism. Everyone stood silent with a simply sympathetic statement when LTTE were killing innocent children, women, men, clergy, intentionally destroying ancient Sinhala Buddhist cultural property, killing unarmed soldiers, injured and sick soldiers and people of all ethnic groups were killed which is why the world and Sri Lanka’s leaders and the Sri Lankan public must correct that Sri Lanka had/has a TERRORIST PROBLEM AND NOT AN ETHNIC PROBLEM.
To add to the injury the West has inducted westernized Indians to do their bidding thus we see a host of Indian-Americans entering the diplomatic scene and dictating how Sri Lanka should run its country. Surely, they can’t take all the people for fools. Brexit was a fine example of how the real Brits stood up against the systems that prevail to deliver an unexpected blow to how the establishments had been running.
With a very unusual shift in Indian foreign policy tagging to West it is anyone’s guess whether LTTE too has been used to fulfil West & India’s geopolitical goals. The recent announcement of the US plans to build a New Office Building, U.S. Marine Residence, Compound Access Control facilities, Maintenance Building, Utility Building, and a Warehouse, a US$ 155 million contract given to Caddell Construction Company immediately calls to mind the Kosovo independence and Camp Bondsteel built immediately after Kosovo was given independence. http://sputniknews.com/europe/20160328/1037105115/camp-bondsteel-serbia-kosovo-military-camp.html US is steadily using the Ranil Government to create a satellite state out of Sri Lanka.
Islamic terrorist mauled over 80 people riding on a truck in Nice, France. What makes this terror attack any different from the scales of attack Sri Lanka went through under LTTE and what did the world do about ending terrorism in Sri Lanka. Now after the former Government ended terrorism or at least the ground force of the LTTE including its leader the Western powers are bringing resolutions to punish the soldiers that sacrificed their lives to rid the nation of terrorism and Sri Lanka became the only country to do so. Is there any point in bringing these hometruths into the open when obviously the duplicitous agendas and motives continues with scant regard to the hypocrisies that prevail?
The West & UN ignored LTTE attacks throughout 30 years
January 31, 1996 – Central Bank LTTE bombing
Killed at least 91 people and injured 1,400 others. At least 100 people lost their eyesight. Among the wounded were two US citizens, six Japanese, and one Dutch national
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Asrtn5xTDdE
October 15, 1997 – Colombo World Trade Centre bombing was Sri Lanka 10/15 which killed 15 people and wounded 105 including several British tourists
25 January 1998 – Majority Buddhists in Sri Lanka devastated by LTTE suicide truck bomb on Temple of the Tooth houses the relic of the tooth of the Buddha, and is also a UNESCO designated World Heritage Site
16 people including a 2year old child died from the LTTE attack. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c10n-WultaM
16 October 2006 – Digampathana LTTE suicide truck bombing
LTTE suicide truck kills over 112 Sri Lanka sailors – unarmed, injured and travelling home
Terrorism is the same wherever it is committed
Terrorists are the same whoever they are
The men behind the terrorists and terrorism post greater threats than the terrorists.
Say no to terrorists and terrorism and to the evil men who create, fund, arm, train and order these maniac killers on the loose
We in Sri Lanka can only empathize with the people of France in their suffering. Believe us we know the agony they are going through. We went through this every day, every month and every year for 30 years. Only after ending terrorists did all the human rights activists, the UN, the UNSG, media began asking questions while they were not bothered to ask how many innocent people the LTTE killed. No one bothered to count the dead killed by LTTE leave alone make a documentary or write a book against LTTE.

Even before addressing the Root Causes of Terrorism, let us address HYPOCRISY and DOUBLE STANDARDS of the means used!
These Western Nations apply one standard when terrorism strikes them, and they apply an entirely DIFFERENT standard to Sri Lanka when Sri Lanka ERADICATED TERRORISM after suffering for 30 long years from attacks by Tamil Terrorists, given safe haven and assistance by these very same W4estern Countries to wage terror in Sri Lanka.
Even now, these HYPOCRITICAL Westerners are HOUNDING Sri Lanka for HAVING UTTERLY DEFEATED the TERRORISTS after wasting 30 years suffering rampant murder and mayhem listening to their HOLIER THAN THOU bilgewater advice to negotiate with and APPEASE TERRORISTS!
Will the French now NEGOTIATE with & APPEASE Al-Quaida, the Islamic State, and other assorted Islamic terror groups?
HELL NO! French President Hollande has VOWED to rain hell, fire and brimstone on the Islamic Turban Heads in Syria and Iraq! ‘
Now let us see how he ensures “human rights” and “democracy” for the peoples of those countries, while attacking terrorists hiding in their midst using them as human shields! Calling Kouchner & Millibanda …. where art thou? Here is where you can REALLY SHINE spouting bilgewater in defence of the TERRORISTS!
Will Hollande send FRENCH GROUND TROOPS to sort out and differentiate between innocent civilians and armed terrorists at close quarters, as the Sri Lanka Armed Forces did against the LTTE, or will they avoid a high death rate among French troops by firing long range missiles from offshore ships and airborne drones killing 100 civilians for each AK-47 wielding terrorist in their midst? Will he magnanimously accept the HIGH TECH CARNAGE as COLLATERAL DAMAGE among civilians as an acceptable trade off for the lives of French Troops in their Western Style War on Terror! If he does, why do they say the OPPOSITE when the SriLanka Armed Forces had the LTTE Corralled in Puthumathalan? Why?? Is it because French Lives Matter MORE than Sri Lankan Lives??
I bet Hollande will do PRECISELY THAT, and will be praised to high heaven by all Western Leaders even as they CONTINUE TO HOUND Sri Lanka for HAVING FINALLY ROOTED OUT the Tamil terrorists who killed over 150,000 innocents in Sri Lanka with the help of these MEALY MOUTHED HYPOCRITES who initiated a global crusade and are prosecuting it sowing chaos and destruction worldwide!
These Westerners say they are FOR DEMOCRACY, but they are HOUNDING the ONLY DEMOCRACY that eradicated terrorism in the last CENTURY in our own country, by our own efforts without inviting in one foreign soldier, sacrificing our own blood and treasure, with the most humane treatment of civilians yet witnessed in a war zone!

Remember Laurel and Hardy (Miliban and Kaucher) came to save Hilary Clinton’s good terrorist? Of course they are good terrorist now. As the saying goes only dead terrorist are good terrorist. But Clinton was wrong because they were not good terrorist when she said so. Some one has to remind the French that they are paying now for what they were trying to destroy Sri Lanka.

Sri Lanka should tell the US that Sri Lanka cannot abide by the UNHRC resolution. The Sri Lankan Army did not commit any war crimes. It is the LTTE terrorists who committed war crimes throughout 26 years of war. No country with an ounce of self respect will place their army in harms way to be tried by a court domestic or hybrid of war crimes the army did not commit in anyway. If individual soldiers committed any crimes, a complaint can be placed in a court of law in Sri Lanka. Why is there a need for special judicial procedures? This government is a puppet of the US, EU, UK, Norway, Sweden, Canada and India and is so subservient to US interests that it is ready to try its own armed forces for crimes that the armed forces did not commit. All the while, the LTTE terrorists who committed war crimes are being shown as totally innocent. Using the ploy of wanting a new constitution which almost all Sri Lankans don’t want, this treacherous government is trying to create a separate state in the guise of a federal state as the TNA separatist terrorists and the US, EU, UK, Norway, Sweden, Canada and India wants. Sri Lanka should tell the US that Sri Lanka cannot abide by the UNHRC resolution. The worst that the US, UK, EU, Sweden, Norway and India can do is impose sanctions on Sri Lanka. So what? Sri Lanka can trade with all the countries of Asia and the rest of the world even if the US, UK, EU, Norway, Sweden and India imposes sanctions. Sri Lanka can grow rice, we have jack fruit, bananas, bread fruit and plenty of water too. So we will not starve just because the US, UK, EU, Sweden, Norway and India imposes sanctions. Also since we can trade with the powerful economies of Asia which includes the Middle East, South East Asia, South Asia, the Far East and Central Asia as well as the rest of the world, actually, we may be OK economically too despite any sanctions imposed by the US, EU, UK, Norway, Sweden, Canada and India. However by avoiding implementing the unjust UNHRC resolution, Sri Lanka will safeguard its independence and freedom which is the most important thing for the next thousands of years as we have safeguarded our independence and freedom for at least the last 2600 years and avoid the creation of a separate state or eelam in the guise of a federal state. So Sri Lanka must very urgently tell the US that we will not abide by the unjust UNHRC resolution but carry out our own domestic process of reconciliation as we see fit. Let the imperialist US impose sanctions. Nothing much will happen to our economy since we can trade with the powerful economies of Asia and the rest of the world instead but Sri Lanka would have preserved its independence and freedom for the next thousands of years and avoid the partition of the country and the creation of a separate state which will be Sri Lanka’s end.

Not only this, the treacherous Ranil, Sirisena, CBK, Mangala, idiotic UNPers, those INGOs working for thousands of dollars and even the JVP are trying to dismember the country via constitutional changes. We patriotic Sri Lankans should demand a strong central government, no more powers to provincial councils, no merger between provinces, ideally abolition of the 13th amendment to the constitution and absolute safeguarding of the sovereignty of the country.
The army did not commit any war crimes. it is the LTTE who committed war crimes. However, it is high time that Sri Lanka rejected the US imperialists UNHRC resolution and state at the UNHRC to leave Sri Lanka alone to get on with reconciliation as Sri Lanka sees fit.
Actually Sri Lanka today being accused of committing war crimes by the US, UK, EU, Norway, Sweden, Canada, India etc. is very similar to the way Saddam Hussein and Iraq was accused of possessing non existent WMDs. Although Iraq did everything possible to show the US, UK, EU, Norway, Sweden, Canada etc. that it did not possess WMD it was bombed anyway, regime change brought about since Iraq has massive amounts of oil which the US, UK, EU, Norway, Sweden, Canada companies wanted to extract at cheap rates by bringing on a puppet regime. A similar scenario is unfolding in Sri Lanka since Sri Lanka is located at a strategic location, the US wanting to establish a naval/air base at Trincomalee, the US wanting to establish further US army, navy, air force bases in the island, mineral resources, marine resources, control of the Indian ocean sea routes etc. For this, the separatist, terroristic Tamils who are subservient to the US are who the US is favouring to help them with this task. This is why the US favours eelam. All patriotic Sri Lankans should therefore tell the government to withdraw from carrying out the US resolution and to tell the US to leave Sri Lanka alone.

Sri Lanka needs a strong central government in the form of the executive presidency. It is the executive presidency which is keeping the unitary state together since provincial councils have now been provided powers. Therefore if the executive presidency is abolished, the provincial councils will become more powerful and the separatist terroristic TNA will try to break away using threats the North and the East. the PR system is the fairest system which means each vote counts. It is a very democratic system. We do not need any changes to the constitution. These changes to the constitution are only suggested to bring on stealthily a federal or a separate state by falsely labelling it as ‘unitary’ to hoodwink the idiotic Sinhala Buddhists. We do not need any changes to the constitution which is what the separatist terrorists of the TNA, US, UK, EU, Norway, Sweden and Canada wants to dismember this country. Also it is the executive presidential system which can easily carry out programmes to develop the country since otherwise there will be endless wranglings within the cabinet and in parliament about what path to follow for development to happen. A well meaning executive president can easily implement a reasonable and suitable programme to take the country forward. Another main reason to keep the executive presidency as it is to counter the separatist threat since a strong executive president can stop any treacherous activities which goes against the independence, freedom, sovereignty, unitary status etc. of the country since the executive president is elected directly by the people’s vote and is answerable to all the people of the country as a result. So for all these reasons, there is no need whatsoever to change the constitution. However the provincial councils should not be given any more powers, there should not be any merger between provinces, ideally the 13th amendment to the constitution should be abolished and there should be a strong central government if Sri Lanka is to move forward as a country and since it is a small country.

Indian occupied army shot dead hundreds of innocent protester in the occupied Kashmir this week. Most of them were shot between the eyes blowing their heads off. It looks like newly developed Indians guns can be aimed perfectly at the target. Are they testing their latest weapons on unarmed civilians.

After the conflict finished with the LTTE terrorism, Justice for the vast majority of Sri Lankans who suffered for nearly 30 yrs with LTTE terrorism has yet to be delivered.
Justice under the Yahap folk, which is delivered through the Legal System of the country is selective and wayward, to say the least.
It is a shame on the Yahap people that they have failed to protect those protected the country, and are now Humiliating them.
Justice delayed is Justice denied !

A Practical suggestion :
We suggest that films be made of LTTE Terrorism and the films distributed to the related UN agencies, and all foreign Embassies and High Commissions in Sri Lanka and throughout the world.
July 16th, 2016 at 5:30 pm
FRAN !! I SUGGESTED THIS DOCUMENTARY FILM ON LTTE TERRORISM LONG YEARS BACK. IN FACT I SUGGESTED THE SAME TO SEND COPIES TO EMBASSIES FOR COUNTER PROPOGANDA. CEYLON FILM UNIT COULD HAVE DONE IT IF GOVERNMENT ORDERED, BUT -MR- CARED TWO HOOTS TO THAT SUGGESTION. I EVEN EMAILED TO HIM.
HE…MR…FAILED TO UNDERSTAND THE PREACHING OF LORD BUDDHA, **THAT NOTHING IS PERMANENT, AND ALL THINGS ARE TRANSIENT** MR JUST IGNORED THAT CONCEPT.

Susantha,
In my view, the MR govt was beleaguered by the UNHRC War Crimes charge.
We must remember that long before MR came in as President, the trumped up 1983 Riots were filmed and the films shown in the west by the 3 TAmil Ambassadors who were there then in Paris, London & Bonn (Balachandran, Moorthy & Lakshmi Naganathan, if my memory serves me right). The JRJ govt was mum on this !
The Grand Plans were laid long before MR came on the scene.
The Cold War times laid the Rules for all the Presidents of Sri Lanka, and continues to do so.
Watch the problems of Pres MS and how he is made to ‘dance to tunes’ …. Sad, but true. One would think that the ultra pro-west Exec PM would now do the films on LTTE Terror and show them to the UN & to all concerned Ambassadors etc ?
