Terrorism, damage to Sri Lanka and monumental Injustice to Sri Lanka

OPEN LETTER to
His Excellency. Dominic Chilcott
High Commissioner for Britain in Sri Lanka,
British High Commission
Colombo,
Sri Lanka.

Dear Mr Chilcott,

Terrorism, damage to Sri Lanka and monumental Injustice to Sri Lanka

I am referring to your. Dudley Senanayake Memorial Lecture, on “the new diplomacy for the new century,” You correctly identified that events in one country, in our ever shrinking world has an impact on other countries. So all of us have to become global citizens and try to be fair to fellow citizens. There are unfortunately massive difference in quality of life in countries on earth, and this problem has to be addressed, so that it is a fairer world for all of us. Massive gap between the rich and the poor also need to be addressed, to reduce the pressure to immigrate.

As for Sri Lanka, things got worse, when Mr Prabakaran, a racist, discovered that there is a gravy train up for grabs in UK. Mr Prabakaran realised, it was not difficult to hoodwink and dupe naive and perhaps even racist officials, who assumed that Sri Lankans are less civilised than UK citizens. Sri Lankans may be poor but not less civilised. Mr Prabakaran struck gold, when he devised the bogus refugee scam, that exported bogus refugees to UK and the bogus refugees contributed to his terrorist effort, creating a cycle of terrorism and bogus refugees, which kept on filling his coffers. It is the gravy train in UK and the relative ease of duping officials that attract bogus refugees.

HR organisations and UN also got into his side having a share of the ‘cake’ he created. With the corruption and the naivety of HR organisations, it would have been relatively easy to get UN and HR organisations to his side, and get them to harass Sri Lanka. .

Unfortunately for Sri Lanka, not only did they have to face terrorism, they also had to face criticism from staff in UN and HR organisations that did nothing practical to stop terrorism. The action of UN and HR organisations, being critical of Sri Lanka only helped LTTE terrorists and is delaying freeing the country from terrorism.

Media reports indicate there are large number of illegal immigrants in UK, even as much as half a million [14].. The main reason is the lax home office controls on immigrants. If UK authorities, allowed bogus refugees into UK on the basis of lies, deception, fraud and canards, then UK must take full responsibility for the action of its officials. Further UK also must take full responsibility for the fund raising activities in UK by bogus refugees, LTTE fronts etc that fund terrorism in Sri Lanka.

If we look at history, USA had to drop nuclear bombs in Japan, killing 60000 in an instant and Allied forces fire bombed Dresden to stop Hitler. If Hitler or the Japanese were not stopped, then the war would have carried on longer and more lives would have been lost It is absolutely essential to recognise that LTTE is a racist cult organisation and they will not stop terrorism. Governments need to physically stop them terrorising by neutralising them.

I shall be most grateful if you could kindly give me an opportunity to communicate with you. You need to bring down the barriers for communication. Please remove your blind folds and ear plugs, and just listen to me for once, instead of preaching.

You also need to discard your preconceptions and prejudices, just for once and look at the evidence. I understand that it may be difficult to discard the preconceptions, as you may have been exposed to disinformation by LTTE. I will for my part attempt to present the evidence in a clear manner as possible.

LTTE was created and armed by India. Some say to destabilise Sri Lanka.
In 1983, there was public hostility towards Tamils, as a result of killing of 13 soldiers by LTTE. Govt. of Sri Lanka apologised to the Tamils and paid compensation to the victims. Tamils used this single incident to gain favours, many times over, and has obtained maximum mileage from this single incident. No such incidents ever occurred after 1983. For over 2000 years, Tamil Chieftains from South India have invaded Sri Lanka several times, and indeed temporarily occupied parts of the country [15].

The Head office of LTTE was based in London. UK nurtured LTTE and allowed it to grow from strength to strength. .LTTE was able to create a massive network of Tamil organisations [1] , including a global network, from its office in London.UK allowed uncontrolled influx of bogus Tamil refugees. Tamils used lies, deception and fraud in their claim for refugee status. Bogus refugees duped officials with false "discrimination" , ‘”suppression, “ and “repression “ slogans to gain refugee status..
Published reports indicate 95% of refugees are not genuine [10]. Even 5 Americans have applied for refugee status [10]. I believe in the case of Sri Lanka, nearly 100 % refugees are not genuine and are bogus refugees. . David Roberts, of the Immigration and Nationality Directorate (IND), has said he did not have the "faintest idea" how many illegal immigrants there were in the UK (2006) [12]. Further e media reports indicated that illegal immigrants have been given security clearance to work in the security industry [13]. It has been reported that some home office sites have been guarded by illegal immigrants. The evidence indicates clearly, utter lack of control by home office.It is the lax system at the home office that allowed a large number of bogus refugees, entry into UK and then get citizenship. Such opportunities have been denied to Sinhalese, and has caused a massive economic advantage for the Tamils. It is estimated that there are 250000 Tamil bogus refugees, majority of whom may have got citizenship by now. Remember Sri Lanka’s much respected Foreign minister was Tamil. Sri Lanka also had Tamil Chief of Police and Tamil Chief of Navy.

Potential refugees, supported by the LTTE network, built nonexistent grievances on situations that never existed and incidents that never happened, to become refugees.
Generally, the situation faced by Tamils was no different to what was faced by Sinhalese and others i.e. harsh living conditions.
Until well after independence, Tamils dominated in Business and in Govt. jobs, far exceeding their ethnic proportion. One of the factors for Tamil domination may be the favouritism shown to Tamils by the British.
When bogus Tamil refugees arrived in UK, they bypassed Tamil Nadu, which is the home land of Tamils. In the Tamil language , Tamil Nadu, actually mean home Land for Tamils. Tamil Nadu, is a short distance from Sri Lanka, in South India. . As they bypassed Tamil Nadu, these Tamils are not genuine refugees but bogus refugees who wanted to migrate for economic reasons.. They are clearly economic refugees trying to get a better quality life. Absolutely nothing wrong with trying to get better quality life, but the same opportunity should have been given to Sinhalese and others. Only the Tamil people who could afford the air fare and had the right contacts would actually arrive in UK, as it is a daunting task. So this picture of Tamils leaving Sri Lanka, due to repression is incorrect, as usually the middle class Tamils or the Rich Tamils, who could afford the air fare and had the right contacts arrived in UK.
Once in UK, there are Tamil networks, dominated by LTTE, that provide all the information and training as to how to hoodwink officials, how to get legal aid, how to get free housing, free education, free medical treatment, free vocational training and other benefits. In deed it is all these free things and the opportunity to work and have a better quality life that attracted Tamils to UK. Remember Tamils bypassed Tamil Nadu, which is their home land and. arrived in UK. Clearly, there must be a reason to come to UK, if they bypassed the Tamil home land.
Tamil welfare organisations in UK get Govt. and local authority grants. Further free language and vocational training is available for Tamil refugees. This is another incentive for bogus refugees. All these benefits make UK a heaven compared to Sri Lanka.. All the benefits UK give to bogus refugees create a magnetic effect to attract bogus refugees. So please don’t blame Sri Lanka. UK created the magnet to attract bogus refugees. It is also extremely unfair. for UK to favour Tamils, and heavily discriminate against the Sinhalese. This favouritism to Tamils, creates massive economic imbalance in favour of Tamils.
Bogus refugees in UK and the businesses they create, fund LTTE, that fuel terrorism and war in Sri Lanka. So UK has a direct link to terrorism and instability in Sri Lanka. So please don’t blame Sri Lanka. The fault lies with UK for allowing an uncontrolled influx of bogus refugees to UK, turning a blind eye for fund raising in UK that fuel terrorism and HR abuses. Uncontrolled influx of bogus refugees also produced violence and gang culture in London. The violence by Tamil gangs in London, is similar nature to that displayed by LTTE in Sri Lanka, but on a smaller scale.
So please do the morally correct thing, apologise to the Sinhalese and Sri Lanka and pay compensation to the victims and Sri Lanka. Please see (2), GOSL apologised to the Tamils and paid compensation. GOSL had principles and a correct ethical stand. Will UK Govt. have the same principles?
Clearly Sinhalese and Sri Lanka are the victims of terrorism, funded by bogus refugees. UK turned a blind eye for fund raising by bogus refugees and turned a blind eye to LTTE/LTTE front activities.
UK nurtured and allowed LTTE to grow into a monster.. So please do the decent thing, take the responsibility for the actions of the ‘ baby’, LTTE you nurtured, housed, indirectly funded and educated.
Due to the blind eye turned by UK and other countries LTTE has grown into a criminal business unit, making a profit in excess of 200 million dollars, involving various charities and fronts [1]. LTTE has always been ahead of authorities, using different fronts changing names rapidly to evade detection.
LTTE sympathisers are now having political voice, as bogus refugees have been given citizenship. It is estimated that 250000 bogus Tamil refugees are in UK. By now most of them may have acquired citizenship Again this is favouritism to Tamils and discrimination against Sinhalese, causing instability, making the Sinhalese voiceless and Tamils prominent and access to UK politicians. This action of giving citizenship to Tamils have given Tamils unfair economic advantage, unfair political advantage, unfair educational opportunities and cause massive imbalance power in every sense. UK created this problem and should take full responsibility for it.
Press reports indicated that large number of uncontrolled immigration has been allowed, and the home office does not even know the number of illegal immigrants in UK. It has been reported in the media, that some home office premises were guarded by illegal immigrants. So please don’t blame Sri Lanka for the incompetence, negligence or naivety of home office officials.
A recent program on current affairs indicated that people come to UK, because of poverty in their home countries and the economic opportunities provided by UK. The program dealt with African illegal immigrants, but the same reason apply for Tamils from Sri Lanka. I firmly believe that, economic benefit is the main reason why Tamils came and still come to UK. They however fabricate canards and lie to gain refugee status. Now UK, by favouring Tamils, are severely discriminating against the Sinhalese. The Sinhalese would like to live in UK, but the opportunities given to Tamils have been denied to the Sinhalese, which is very clear racial discrimination practiced by UK authorities. Once in UK, Tamils take part in credit card fraud, gang warfare, knifing people to death and terrorizing the streets of London [11] along with other nefarious activities, trying to scrape up as much money as they can and then send this money to the their "freedom fighters" to kill the Sinhala Buddhists, to keep the war going, thus they can stay in the West and get their citizenship, as well as enabling more of them to emigrate to the West in continuous cycle.
18.. Discrimination of Sinhalese is monumental and the damage done to Sri Lanka, due to money raised in UK for terrorism, is Gigantic. UK authorities should be held fully responsible for the above. Compensation should be paid by UK for victims of terrorism, as according to law, the employer is held responsible for the mistakes of employees. Home office officials have carried out acts of omissions or have been negligent and the UK Govt. is their employer. This point has to be made clearly to UK govt, that ultimately they are responsible for the death, destruction in Sri Lanka for the reasons given above and they should not wash their hands off their responsibility.

19. UK Govt should not try to cunningly, shift the blame to Sri Lanka, when the fault is clearly theirs. UK Govt. allowed bogus refugees into UK, gave them residency, housed them, gave them free education training and other benefits, gave them free legal aid, gave them grants for networking, allowed LTTE to carry out fund raising in UK, allowed propaganda for terrorism to be carried out, turned a blind eye for fund raising and propaganda activities of LTTE and LTTE fronts. Clearly UK Govt. should be responsible for the terrorist actions of LTTE.

20. In a nutshell, UK is responsible, proportionately, for the whole mess in Sri Lanka. They should compensate the victims and Sri Lanka in an appropriate manner.

21 The Sri Lanka terrorists, the LTTE, are controlled to a large extent, supported and nourished by the World Tamil Movement (WTM) an international organization that is similar to Al Qaeda, which spans Sri Lanka, Tamil Nadu and many other countries. The WTM is administered by the World Tamil Coordinating Committee (WTCC). The LTTE is the violent arm of the WTM [15]. How does LTTE get money to buy weapons, maintain a fighting force of 15000 fighters, maintain a network of offices worldwide for fundraising and propaganda, purchase a fleet of over 10 ships, have an operating profit in excess of 200 million dollars. ?

Answer: Not from Sri Lanka, please see reference [1],[15].

22 Events in UK, for example, giving residential status to bogus refugees have caused damage on a mega scale to Sri Lanka. Terrorist funds from UK has caused massive loss of life, injury and death to many Sri Lankas and also damaged the economy seriously. I am glad that you too saw that events in one country affects another.

So UK should pay up for the damages done to Sri Lanka, by terrorist activities, funded from UK. I repeat, UK has favoured Tamils and discriminated on a monumental scale..

23. So please take responsibility for UK’s conduct and pay up for the damages done to Sri Lanka.

24. How can damage to Sri Lanka be mitigated ?

There are several possibilities:

a) Compensate victims and pay damages to Sri Lanka .

b) Stop fund raising activities of LTTE and fronts with immediate effect.

c) Allow an equal number of Sinhalese to UK.

d) Any one caught fund raising or involved in terror related activities to be deported. (UK has deported undesirables before ).

Yours sincerely,

Ben Silva
