Is it not to antagonise the Forces against Sri Lanka that we should not remove 13A ?

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ In removing 13 A , ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…- We are playing into the hands of the forces that are conspiring against the countryƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚¦ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚ says Tissa Vitharana of LSSP.

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ If ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ Tissa Vitharana means ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ the International Community, why should we be frightened of it?ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  International Community has been and continues to be the most undemocratic , reactionary, andƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  discriminatoryƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  foreign power working against developing countries.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  The International Community has committed more war crimes, and ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ violation of human rights, than Sri Lanka ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ and no body has so far submitted a resolution at the UNHRC asking its ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ accountability for war crimes.

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ LetƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s see a short listƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  of their nefarious activities. ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ Can any intelligent person understand why USA continues a trade embargo ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ against CubaƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  since October 1960 , codified into Law in 1992 ?ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  It is not acceptable in theƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  21st century. What wrong hasƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  Cuba done against America or the civilized world ? Cuban revolution drove away Batista an egocentric dictator who made Cuba the play ground of the rich AmericansƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  mafia, setting up casinos, gambling houses and prostitution. ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ Cuba organised its own system of government, without following the pseudo western democracy ?ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  Should Cuba be prosecuted for that by an American trade embargos ?

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ USA accuses Iran and North Korea forƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  their nuclear programmes, but Cuba has nothing of the kind.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  This is nothing other than its discriminative methods invented for regime change in developing countries not following its system. The International Community wants to draw these countries away from the influence of China and Russia,ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  keeping them financially and politically under its control grouped as dependentƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  satellite States.

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ International Community led by France treatedƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  a group ofƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  disgruntled Libyans in Bengazy, as rebels and helped them giving, arms and ammunitions and sending military advisers for an armed rebellionƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  against Colonel Gaddafi in Libya.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  It used NATO to bomb Libya obtaining ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ the Sanction of the UN Security Council ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ falsely pretending ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ thatƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  it ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ wouldƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  only survey the air space over Libya.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ 

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ USA and UK fooled the UNO about Iraq, lying to it that Iraq was having weapons ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ of mass destruction, and went to war in Iraq and assassinated Saddam Husain. USAƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  let their special security forces, the NavyƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  SEALs to trespass intoƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  the Sovereign State of Pakistan to assassinate an unarmed Osama Bin Laden.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  The warƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  against the Government of Syria had been ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚sponsoredƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚ by USA and the International Community, armingƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  a group of rebellious ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ Syrians making out of them armed rebels against the regime.

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ USA withdrew its budgetary contribution to UNESCO because the General Conference of UNESCOƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  accepted Palestine as a member State.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  Is that notƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  undemocratic, inhuman , andƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  a violation of the human rights of a people who had been displaced from their lands toƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  be ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ asked to be recognised as aƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  Nation ?ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  Is it correct to sanction an International Institution like UNESCO for accepting the decision of its General Assembly to accept Palestine as a member State ?

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ In Sri Lanka too the International Community led by the nose by Robert Blake, David Milliband, Bernard Kouchner , and Hillary Clinton, wanted to contact the terroristsƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  when they were being cornered in theƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  no-fire zone by the Sri Lanka Armed Forces, undoubtedly to recognise them as a rebel group, ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ arm them and backed by NATO allow the terrorists to capture power toƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  BalkaniseƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  Sri Lanka .ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  It was ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ what it ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ did in Libya, handing ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ over power to a group of rebels to eventually assassinate Gaddafi.

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ What ever Sri Lanka does will not be appreciated by the International Community as long as ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ it is detrimental to its own ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ interest.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  It will blame the Government of Sri LankaƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  for what ever positive action it takes with good intentions for the betterment of its peopleƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  When Sri Lanka announced that it had resettled the remaining IDPs, the American EmbassyƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  made a statement , ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-We remain concerned about the rushed resettlement of the final internally displaced persons (IDPs) to close the Menik Farm camp,”

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ If Sri Lanka continues to do things to please India and the International Community, it will fail in its ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ endeavour to reconcile the Communities and build a nation out of them and bring them peace and prosperity.

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ Therefore , we cannot do things with ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-pleasing the International CommunityƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚, ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ in mind.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  The Government of Sri Lanka has to take actions which isƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  necessary for our people and our country as a whole.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  Those opposition political partiesƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  that accuse Sri Lanka of an ethnic problem , and discrimination of the government against the Tamil people are concerned with their own future as politicians, and are using the Tamil people as a means to attain ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ their own political objectives.

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ TNA is the present ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-phantomƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚ of the terrorists and they do exactly what Prabhakaran the terrorist did .ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  Prabhakaran was not interested in his Tamil people.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  He was interested in setting up a Tamil Eelam to satisfy his own ego. He ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ originally ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-brain washed ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…- and trained by India became its ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…- FrankensteinƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚ let loose in Sri Lanka.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ 

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ Prabhakaran was using Solheim ofƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  NorwayƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  as an intermediary to arrange negotiations for peace talks with the Government representatives.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  Prabhakaran was ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ arranging theseƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  negotiations to be held outside Sri Lanka to give the negotiationsƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  the maximum publicity. HeƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  knew that he was not going to settle any thing throughƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  negotiations and he had plans to scuttle each one of these peace negotiations.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  He was determined to have the Tamil Eelam his way; not through negotiations, but through terror.

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ It is exactly what ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ the TNA is doing.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  TNA is using Manmohan Singh andƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  India for the purpose, as Prabhakaran used Solheim and Norway.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  Sampanthan and his TNA cronies know very well that they do not wantƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  to work democratically along with the Government.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  They have their own idea how to scuttle negotiations and use India as a spring board to bring discredit to Sri Lanka.

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ TNA will fool the International Community, just like Prabhakaran the terrorist.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  TNA will get various human rights activists on to their side to force them to get the Sri Lanka ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ government to create the Tamil Eelam . The idea is to get the SLArmed Forces to leave the North and East, and stop any one from the Sinhala and Muslim Communities settle down in the North and East. ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ They want to fuse the North and East into one ProvinceƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  and have their Tamil Ealam with only the Tamil speaking people. Their terrorist ThalaivarƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  Prabhakaran failed to do this. But TNA wants to do it ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ their way.

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ As Solheim of Norway helped Prabhakaran the terrorist, Manmohan Singh of India is helping Terrorist proxyƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  Sampnathan and TNA.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  As much as Solheim of Norway wasƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  at the sameƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  time working with the International Community; Manmohan Singh of India is also with the International Community.

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ How long will it take the Government of Sri LankƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  to understand this ?

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ But SriƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  Lanka continues to pay homage to India and gives more and moreƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  means to infiltrate intoƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  Sri Lanka, politically, economically and socially. ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ India has setƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  up its Consular Offices in the NorthƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  and the South. The latest is that,ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-..Under the Slave Island Area Redevelopment Project the UDA will provide 8 acres of land bordering former Education Department site, Malay Street, Justice Akbar Street, and Railway line on a 99-year lease to the Indian company. ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚¦ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚¦ TATA is entrusted to build 456 decent housing units with all facilities for the current residents in alternative lands in the same area within two years.ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ It is in the interest of Sri Lanka to stop further influence of India in Sri Lanka andƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  instead build stronger ties with China and Russia.

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ Observing the number of countries and NGOs who are seeking to accuse Sri Lanka from- White Van kidnapping ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ to elimination of terrorismƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  at the next UNHuman Rights Council one wonders whether Sri Lanka would not have been better off suffering under ruthless terrorism instead of having got rid of terrorism under most difficult circumstances with the sacrifice of a generation of youth.

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ Sri Lanka carried out military operations to eliminate terrorismƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  through necessity and neither the Government of Sri Lanka nor the Sri Lanka Armed Forces wanted to deliberately injure orƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  cause death to Tamil Civilians.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  If their were any deaths in that military operation it was because it was ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ forced upon the SL Armed Forces by the ruthless terrorists, it was definitely not a deliberate violation of the rights of the Tamil Civilians by the SL Armed Forces for which nobody couldƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  on hear say give it a false interpretations to accuse the Armed Forces.

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ But the deaths of Civilians by the American Armed forces and by the NATO bombardmentsƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  were far greater. But unlike the Armed forces in ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ Sri Lanka, ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ in Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan , and Libya,ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  America and its NATO allies were fighting an unnecessary war.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  Every time the UNHRC meets in Geneva Sri Lanka is in the front line of attack.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  It appears that it is being deliberately done by the International Community to take the attention away from itsƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  ownƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  war crimes, and violation of human rights.

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ It is time Sri Lanka and other countries thatƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  are being targeted by the International Community forƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  violation of human rights and war crimes, turn tables on the International Community by presenting a resolution at the UNHR Council in Geneva against the International Community calling it ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ to account for the Civilian deaths , violation of Human Rights and war crimes in different parts of the world.

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ All their war crimes, and violation of Human rights are well documented and we need not get the UK Channel 4 to make a special film like they did to falsely accuse Sri Lanka Armed Forces ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…- deliberate shooting blindfolded ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ Sri Lanka terroristsƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  There are many war crimes committed by the Armed forces of the International Community , such as ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ in AfghanistanƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  the ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ deliberate shooting of civilians by American Soldiers andƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  taking fingers of the dead as mementos.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ 

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ There are numerous other cases ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ such as:

( i) ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ torture ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ of Iraqi prisoners ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ inƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ Abu Grhaib,

(ii) ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ use of Napalm in Vietnam.

(iii) the USƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  Navy SEALs entering PakistanƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  and assassinating unarmed Osama Bin Laden. ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ (iv) Deaths of civilians by NATO bombardments in Libya.

(v)Civilian deaths from bombardment by US Drones in the boarder villages of Pakistan.

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ These are only a few of them. We can prepare a resolution against the International Community against its ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ war crimes and violation s of human rights of Nations and Individuals running to several pages.

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ All ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ these war crimes committed by the International Community which have not been so far questioned by any international forum cannot however be ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ covered-up ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ by pointing a finger of accusation at Sri Lanka.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ 

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ Therefore we need not be frightened of the International CommunityƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  in doing in our country what is necessary for our people who are the Sri Lankan Tamils, theƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  Sri Lankan Sinhala andƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  the Sri Lankan Muslims.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ 

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ In our country weƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  need not have the permission of India, or the International Community to set up our Military Camps where we want.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ 

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ Nor can India or the International Community question us whether we are going to keep the 13 amendment to our Constitution, or remove it if our peopleƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  want it removed.

    Tissa Vitharana of LSSP is playing into the hands of the forces that are conspiring against the country!!

    His party has been REJECTED by the people so no need to worry about his nonsense.

  2. Sunil Vijayapala Says:

    Well Gota needs to be careful if ever he goes to India, on the invitation of the Indian government. This could be a plot maybe involving RAW to get rid of him. I may be wrong but these ‘unclean’ Indians I feel emulate the filthy, Anglo Saxons, who do dirty things to nationalistic leaders. Indians have become the mouth piece of Anglo Saxons the hegemonic race, e.g. N. Pillai woman. The personal file of Anglo Saxons goes like this – Serial killers, Mass murderers, arsonists, Paedophiles, Gay amd Lesbian exibitionists, sex maniacs, smelling the filth of others while their own filth doesn’t smell. I mean do you leave in the hands of a immoral race to implement human rights and crimes against humanity? Alas! the Indian fool dancing to the music of Anglo Saxon – well they too will learn the lesson eventually. Gotabaya please think twice before you go on this trip – ask those bastards to come to Sri Lanka. They may ’cause’ an accident.

  3. Dham Says:

    Sunil,
    I agree. I too have the suspicion. Gota must be careful.
    There are few RAW agents here in Lankaweb too.

    Charles,
    “International Community” is led by Zionist forces. It is controlled by UN which is the Zionist HQ with regard to power distribution.
    Unlike the Armed forces in Sri Lanka, in Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan , and Libya, America and its NATO allies were fighting with an opposition positioned by CIA,Mossad – meaning themselves.

    We already have mega Indian projects coming out in Colombo. Perhaps our leaders must be knowing what they are doing.

  6. Ananda-USA Says:

    ON THE CONTRARY, It is NOT Sri Lanka’s Politics that threatens India’s relations with Sri Lanka, but India’s own Local Politics pandering to Indian Tamil Demagogues, and India’s Global Politics pandering to Sri Lanka’s Foreign Enemies, that is UNDERMINING Sri-Lanka – India Relations.

    If India BUTTS OUT from Sri Lanka’s internal matters and attends to uplifting its own poverty-ridden people pitted against each other by race, religion, language and caste … Sri Lanka can again love our Indian cousins … as we did before India began to be the regional bully.

    When India THREATENS our VERY SURVIVAL with their Machiavellian policies, that has already cost the lives of 150,000 Sri Lankan citizens, they will not win Patriotic Sri Lankan HEARTS & MINDS. We remember only too well the pain and suffering India has caused us.

    Mind your own business, India … and all will be well!

    Lanka politics threatens ties with India

    Sachin Parashar, TNN Oct 23, 2012, 12.46AM IST

    NEW DELHI: The ongoing one-upmanship between the Sri Lankan government and TNA, which represents a vast majority of Tamil population in the island nation, has taken a dangerous turn with many within the government, including President Mahinda Rajapaksa’s brother and defence secretary Gotabhaya Rajapaksa, demanding that the 13th amendment to the Constitution, a product of the Rajiv Gandhi-Jayewardene 1987 accord, be repealed altogether.

    Though the 13th amendment, which guarantees devolution of power to the provinces and comprises several other major concession to the Tamils, has often been pejoratively referred to as an “imported solution”, rarely has it been subjected to such attack by parties within the ruling coalition. Indian officials here said they were “surprised” by the development, but added they would respond at the right moment. Sources confirmed that Gotabhaya will be visiting India this week, and that the issue will be taken up with him.

    Gotabhaya’s call for abolition of the 13th amendment is said to be in response to the “post-war strategy” of the TNA. India has repeatedly, and successfully, sought a reiteration from Lanka of its commitment to the 13th amendment, saying it was imperative for reconciliation after the war ended in 2009. Despite raising doubts about the agenda of TNA, described by India as a credible body, President Rajapaksa had told TOI earlier this year that his government remained committed to 13th amendment. A joint statement issued by the two countries last year had said that “a devolution package, building upon the 13th amendment, would create conditions for genuine reconciliation”.

    Indian officials underlined how Lanka made the same commitment in the 2008 Universal Periodic Review (UPR), which looks at the human rights record of all UN member states every four years. Interestingly, Lanka’s record will be reviewed again by the UPR in early next month with India being one of the three countries that will carry it out. “This is not just a commitment made to India but to international agencies,” said an official.

    The reconciliation talks, which started after the war, collapsed in January with President Rajapaksa insisting that the process could be taken forward only through a Parliament Select Committee (PSC). The TNA has refused to join the PSC.

    While ties have suffered because of India’s vote at the UN Human Rights Council against Sri Lanka, PM Manmohan Singh did try to save the situation when he met Rajapaksa last month and assured him of New Delhi’s support at international fora in future. In the talks, though, India also conveyed to Lanka that it looked upon TNA as a credible entity with which talks must be resumed. The relations now threaten to hit an all-time low with the talk about scrapping the 13th amendment altogether.

    The ugly Philosophy Might is Right. Majority Rules and Minority Submits. Humanity is one big family and should stop claiming superiority among each other. Be it with Language, Race or Faith.

  8. Lorenzo Says:

    “The ugly Philosophy Might is Right.”

    No it is not right as you can see from Saudi, etc. and other Islamic countries.

    DICTATORS rule with the GREEN BOOK and EVERYONE submits!!!

  9. Lorenzo Says:

    In Burma Muslim terrorists had attacked and sexually assaulted Buddhist women.

    These barbarians are spreading everywhere like ameaba and causing misery to everyone on the planet including animals.

    Now for HAJ they try to do another MUNNESWARAM type terrorist attack on thousands of animals. Why no one tries to stop this nonsense?

    Have you not heard just before an animal is tortured to be killed, it’s brain sends signals to self poison its flesh.

    There is a connection between excessive meat consumption and ameaba like growth, BOTHWAYS!!

    Excessive consumption of good meat—->massive population growth
    Excessive consumption of bad meat—->massive population growth decline.

  10. HussainFahmy Says:

    Topic (Is it not to antagonise the Forces against Sri Lanka that we should not remove 13A ?) has NO relevance to – Burmese Muslims, attacks on animals and consumption of meat. These are desperate attempts to sidestep issues related to 13A. or one way of creating disunity among communities who have lived in Peace for centuries.

    Islamic countries have supported and will continue to assist Sri Lanka no matter how strong the Diaspora Tigers in sheep’s clothing, who live, work and support the so-called International Community to finance terror. These Tigers in sheep’s clothing can fool; some of the people some of the time, but not all the time. People of all Faith who believe in Peace will always identify each others contribution to their country and will endeavour to respect each others Faith. ALL terrorists and those who finance terror are Criminals in the eyes of the Creator and they will dealt as such. Tiger Zion Alliance is eroding and will expose itself in time.

  11. Lorenzo Says:

    The birthplace of Islam and the guardian of the 2 mosques and the biggest Islamic country Saudi voted AGAINST SL at the UNHRC.

    Wahabi terror is as bad as Tamil terror. The right thing to do is PIT one against the other.

    BAN polygamy. BAN torture of animals and humans. Have ONE law for all where MAN and WOMAN are equal.

    If any man marries many wives, each of those wives will be eligible to marry many men of their choice because they have equal rights.

    A better system will be one man, one woman marriages for all.

  12. Ananda-USA Says:

    I want to clarify my opposition to DIVERSITY in Governance.

    DIVERSITY is a GOOD THING if it is applied at the SMALLEST GRANULAR LEVEL and is taken to mean that people should not be discriminated against because of their Communal Attributes such as race, religion, caste, language or sex. A democratic government elected by the citizens of a country, on the basis of one vote for each adult citizen, that assures equal rights for every citizen without regard to the above Communal Attributes automatically guarantees this kind of DIVERSITY in the Public Sphere of Governance.

    I call this INTEGRATIVE DIVERSITY where Communal Differences are preserved at the SMALLEST GRANULAR LEVEL of peoples lives in the Private Sphere, while being BLIND to that DIVERSITY in the Public Sphere of Governance.

    However, if DIVERSITY is identified at a much LARGER GRANULAR level, and taken to mean that the LAND of a country should be divided into separate regions for the EXCLUSIVE use of separate communities identified according to Communal Attributes, that its Representatives in LEGISLATURE (MPs, Senators, Executive Officers such as PM, President, Ministers, etc) are pre-allocated according to those Communal Attributes, that the Members of its JUDICIARY (Supreme Court Justices, Lower Court Justices) are pre-allocated according to Communal Attributes, that the Members of its LAW ENFORCEMENT system (Attorneys General, Police, Coast Guard etc) are pre-allocated according to Communal Attributes, that the Members of its ARMED FORCES (Army, Navy, Air Force, Military Intelligence) are pre-allocated according to Communal Attributes, and so on, then DIVERSITY becomes a DE-FACTO DIVISION of the country into Separate Communities and States without any shared values that promotes cohesion as a single nation.

    Enforcement of this kind of fundamentally flawed APARTHEID DIVERSITY is in fact, a PERFECT PRESCRIPTION for the DISINTEGRATION of the nation into SEPARATE WARRING STATES, as each community attempts to increase its share at the expense of other communities. It is this kind of APARTHEID DIVERSITY that the Tamil Eelamists want to promote in Lanka, and the Muslims of the SLMC also want to preserve when they, like the TNA, opposes repealing of the 13th Amendment and the dissolution of the Provincial Council System (see the news article below).

    It is important to note that APARTHEID DIVERSITY is not what is usually meant by DIVERSITY in Western countries, such as the US, when they support “diversity”, for example, in the workplace. However, the Eelamists CONFUSE the two meanings DELIBERATELY to exploit the automatic knee-jerk approval of gullible unthinking Westerners to win their support for the APARTHEID DIVERSITY.

    In a country with a democratic form of government with universal franchise and ensuring equal rights for all citizens, INTEGRATIVE DIVERSITY is automatically assured, and no calls for DIVERSITY to separate communities is needed.

    Therefore, I oppose the Eelamists call for DIVERSITY in Governance, simply because they are agitating for the Apartheid forom of Diversity.

    13-A: SLMC flays call for referendum

    By Franklin R. Satyapalan
    Island.lk
    October 23, 2012

    The Sri Lanka Muslim Congress (SLMC) will oppose any attempt by the government to hold a national referendum with a view to repealing the 13th Amendment to the Constitution, SLMC General Secretary M. T. Hassen Ali, MP, said

    Ali said: “Just because the government could not pass one Bill, it should not try to do away with the whole amendment. We will defend the 13th Amendment. It is unethical to hold a referendum at national level as the majority community would vote en-bloc in support of the move to repeal the 13th Amendment introduced as a panacea for the longstanding grievances of the minorities following the signing of the Indo–Lanka Accord in 1987.”

    “Some members of the government are trying to repeal the 13th Amendment at a time when the Tamil speaking minorities in the country are clamouring for more devolution. The latest government move ran counter to its promise to grant 13 Plus.”

    The SLMC General Secretary said that minority parties had never opposed steps taken by the government to develop the provinces and the people would benefit from the proposed ‘Divi Neguma’ Bill. He said: “We are not at all against the government initiating legislation in Parliament to implement new development programmes. What we oppose is the implementation of the development projects in rural areas of the North and the East from Colombo.”

    The SLMC secretary called upon the government to devolve more power to the Provincial Councils and to allocate for funds for development at the provincial level.

  13. Lorenzo Says:

    “Ali said: “Just because the government could not pass one Bill, it should not try to do away with the whole amendment.”

    Ali baba and 40 thieves!!!

    TNA – 14
    SLMC1/2 – 11
    CWC + UPF – 8
    Gonason’s party – 1
    LSSP, CP, LP, etc, jokers and some UNP jokers – 7
    TOTAL – 41

    They will vote against scrapping 13 amendment.

    But they stand NO CHANCE if put to the people.

    After 1956 it is time to show them WHO IS THE BOSS HERE. Otherwise every hyena tries to be the boss.

  14. Ananda-USA Says:

    BOTH the Sri Lanka Government, and the Indian Government should take note of the SLMC’s desire to EXPLOIT the 13th Amendment to CREATE THEIR OWN EELAM in the Eastern Provice of Sri Lanka.

    The Provincial Council System, and the DEVOLUTION of POWER to those regions dominated by DIFFERENT COMMUNAL GROUPS will give rise to a Tamil EELAM in the Northern Province, AND a MUSLIM EELAM in the Eastern Province.

    That will sound the DEATH KNELL of Sri Lanka as an UNDIVIDED Unitary Nation.

    It will CREATE TWO BIG PROBLEMS for India.

    1. The TAMIL EELAM will create a SPRINGBOARD for the SECESSION of Tamil Nadu first, and DRAVIDA NADU soon after, from the Indian Union.

    2. The MOSLEM EELAM will create WAHABIST SPRINGBOARD for UNDERMINING India from its soft Southern underbelly in collusion with India’s EXTERNAL Moslem enemies, and disenchanted INTERNAL Moslem population.

    Indian Leaders were VERY STUPID in thye past supporting Tamil terrorism in Sri Lanka thinking they could control the Sri Lankan Tamils and it posed NO THREAT to India’s Integrity. They were PROVED WRONG.

    Now, they are PUSHING for DEVOLUTION of POWER under the 13th Amendment, not realizing that this will not only ENABLE the Tamil Separatists in India, but also the Moslem Separatists in India.

    How STUPID can India GET? India NEVER LEARNS from its Own Mistakes!

    After getting rid of the 13A, lets work towards a Gonibilla free Sri Lanka! When I walk the streets of Sri Lanka I want to feel I am in Sri Lanka not some misogynistic, polygamous stone age hell hole like Saudi Arabia or Afghanistan.

    If anyone thinks a MUSLIM “EELAM” in Sri Lanka will never happen, look at what is happening in the provinces of Pattani, Yala, Songkhla and Narathiwat at the Southernmost tip of majority Buddhist Thailand bordering Malayasia.

    The actions of these MUSLIM terrorists in Thailand MIMIC the strategy the LTTE adopted in Sri Lanka: attack government personnel and facilities, create a backlash against Tamils, alienate and convert the Tamil community into a captive support base, obtain funds and weapons from abroad, and broadcast propaganda demonizing the majority community to present itself to the world as defenders of oppressed people, deserving world sympathy, while increasing the intensity of the attacks and transforming themselves into a well-oiled well-funded killing machine capable of paralyzing the whole country, from the Southern tip to the capital of Bankok. While Tamil Nadu and India served the role of Malaysia as the neighboring safe haven, the Tamil Diaspora is replaced by the Wahabbists and their terror groups around the world.

    They are following EXACTLY in the footsteps of the LTTE.

    Sri Lanka MUST TAKE NOTE of these developments and move to NIP this GROWING CANCER in the BUD, by getting rid of the 13th Amendment and the Provincial Councils, AND banning ALL COOMUNAL SEPARATIST PARTIES agitating for REGIONAL POWER BASES on Communal Bases, such as the TNA and the SLMC.

    …………
    I quote the following from Wikipedia.org:

    A resurgence in violence by Pattani guerrilla groups began in 2001. The identity of the actors pushing conflict remains mostly obscure. Many local and regional experts have implicated the region’s traditional separatist groups, such as PULO, BRN and GMIP, and particularly the BRN-Coordinate (a faction of BRN) and its alleged armed wing the Ronda Kumpulan Kecil (RKK).[12] Others suggested the violence occurred under the influence of foreign Islamist groups such as al-Qaeda and Jemaah Islamiyah, but since their modus operandi – attacking army depots and schools – is not a similar MO to other groups attacking Western targets, most view the connections as weak.[13]

    Some reports suggest that a number of Pattani Muslims have received training at al-Qaeda centres in Pakistan, though many experts believe, to the contrary, that the Pattani guerrilla movements have little or nothing to do with global jihadism. Others have claimed that the insurgents have forged links with groups such as the religious-nationalist Moro Islamic Liberation Front in the Philippines and the quasi-secular Free Aceh Movement (GAM) in Indonesia.

    …….

    In 2002, Thaksin Shinawatra stated, “There’s no separatism, no ideological terrorists, just common bandits.” By 2004 he had reversed his position, and has come to regard the insurgency as a local front in the global War on Terrorism. Martial law was instituted in Pattani, Yala and Narathiwat in January 2004.[15]
    …….

    A striking aspect of the South Thailand insurgency is the anonymity of the people behind it and the absence of concrete demands. Thailand held relatively free elections in February 2005, and no secessionist candidates contested the results in the south. However, requests of cultural and religious freedom and the right to use the Yawi language have been presented numerous times. In July, the chairman of the Narathiwat Islamic Committee was quoted as saying, “The attacks look like they are well-organized, but we do not know what group of people is behind them.”

    ………

    The insurgency is probably not caused by the lack of political representation among the Muslim population. By the late 1990s, Muslims were holding unprecedentedly senior posts in Thai politics, for example with Wan Muhammad Nor Matha (a Malay Muslim from Yala) serving as Chairman of Parliament from 1996 to 2001 and later Interior Minister during the first Thaksin government. Thaksin’s first government (2001–2005) also saw 14 Muslim MPs and several Muslim senators. Muslims dominated provincial legislative assemblies in the border provinces, and several southern municipalities had Muslim mayors.
    ……..

    Attacks after 2001 concentrated on installations of the police and military, schools and other symbols of Thai authority in the region were burned. Local police officers of all ranks and government officials were the primary targets of seemingly random assassinations, with 19 policemen killed and 50 incidents related to the insurgency in the three provinces of Pattani, Yala and Narathiwat by the end of 2001.[29]

    …….

    Estimates of the strength of the insurgency vary greatly. In 2004 General Panlop Pinmanee said that there were only 500 hard-core insurgents. Other estimates say there as many as 15,000 armed insurgents. Some Thai analysts believe that foreign Islamist groups are infiltrating the area, and that foreign funds and arms are being brought in, though again, such claims are balanced by an equally large body of opinion suggesting this remains a distinctly local conflict.

    …….

    On June 15, 2006, during the 60th anniversary of the accession of Bhumibol Adulyadej to the Thai throne, well coordinated bomb-attacks against at least 40 government and official buildings occurred. Two police officials died and 11 others were injured. Experts say that the bomb attacks were a message to the Thai authorities, rather than an attempt to do real damage, as the bombs were loaded with small amounts of explosives. Had the devices been larger, the casualties and injuries would have been notably greater. The Thai media was late in reporting the incident, and only did so after the BBC and other international broadcasters announced it.

    On 22 November 2006, Wan Kadir Che Wan, leader of Bersatu, an umbrella organization for southern separatist groups, told Al Jazeera television that the Al-Qaeda-linked Jemaah Islamiyah (JI) terrorist network was helping local insurgents stage attacks in Thailand.[30]

    Sri Lanka reiterates its plan to implement ’13 plus’ for power devolution

    ColomboPage News Desk, Sri Lanka.

    Oct 25, Colombo: The Sri Lankan government today reiterated that it intends to implement the widely discussed ’13 plus’ arrangement as a means for power devolution to the provinces.

    In responding to a question on the uproar over the purported plans to abolish the 13th Amendment, Media Minister and Cabinet Spokesman, Minister Keheliya Rambukwella told the media Thursday that the government has not taken a decision about the 13th Amendment to the Constitution and the President has stressed that the government’s intention is, to implement the 13 plus.

    “By the reference of ‘Plus’ it is envisaged to converge all minority groups in the provinces in a Senate,” the Minister said.

    The Minister added that President Mahinda Rajapaksa explained this mechanism to the Indian Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh during his visit to India last month.

    Explaining the recent surge in the calls to abolish the 13th Amendment, Minister Rambukwella said the Amendment is part of the Constitution and the Members of Parliament are obliged to protect the Constitution.

    “If there are obstacles to impediment public service such obstacles could be removed,” the Minister said.

    The Minister further pointed out that Sri Lanka is a democratic country and the people and their representatives have the liberty to express their personal opinions and the ruling United People’s Freedom Alliance, being a combination of 21 political parties, has groups with different shades of opinion.

    Speaking of a political solution to devolve power, the Minister said the government appointed the Parliamentary Select Committee to expedite the devolution process.

    He further noted that the President without using his Executive Powers has pledged to implement the proposals presented by the PSC, and the legislature has been given the authority to discuss, deliberate and find the best solution.

    However, the Minister noted that the major Tamil party, the Tamil National Alliance, instead of participating in the parliamentary process where a solution is available, is seeking the assistance from outside forces which “cannot do anything”.
    The Minister said the “vacillating stance” of the TNA is the sole reason for the delay in the devolution process.

    Attention Islamo’phobics,

    Islam is a powerful religion with more than 1.8 billion followers, a faith that continues to grow despite the best efforts of its opponents to crush it (and despite the stupidity of Zealots who dishonour Islam with their brutality). Islam will not be harmed by any speech, film, book or work of art. Indeed, the foolishness of those who seek to denigrate Prophet Muhammed (PBUH) in this fashion is that their work simply inspires more people to learn about the man who founded humanity’s second largest religion. A man whose life was so remarkable that, 1,380 years after his death, it continues to attract enthusiastic converts to his teaching of the oneness of God and the oneness of mankind.

    The world is a better place because Prophet Muhammed (PBUH) survived against his opponents and won. And even as the Prophet showed grace and clemency to his enemies, so must his heirs do so today. With the grace of Allah, Islam is an unstoppable force that will keep growing. That triumph is assured by history, demographics and its inherent attractiveness as a way of life for humanity. No orator, filmmaker, artist, author, musician or invading army can destroy Islam. Secure in that knowledge, it is time for Muslims to relax and ignore the daily offenses and insults thrown at them by denizens of the cheap seats. It is time for Muslims to show the powerful confidence that Prophet Muhammed (PBUH) demonstrated when he had won and his enemies trembled at his feet. The power that comes from three simple words.I FORGIVE YOU.

  26. Lorenzo Says:

    “its inherent attractiveness as a way of life for humanity” Are you on crac?

    But I agree on demographics population growth of them is high.

    FACT – most wars kill mostly them.

    But this will all collapse in another 40 years when they run out of oil.

    Just imagine the fate of Saudi the day it runs out of oil?

  27. Ananda-USA Says:

    HussainFahmy,

    I hope you understand that most people at Lankaweb RESPECT and HONOR the religion of Islam that Prophet Mohammed taught, and that they have written many articles supporting Moslem nations.

    However, every religion has INTOLERANT FANATICAL branches, that sometimes become dominant, and make life miserable for others. Like most fanatics, they ultimately destroy their followers.

    The intolerant Wahabbi form of Islam that demonizes people of all other religions, including the Shia branch of Islam, and don’t accept them as human beings completely equal to themselves, belong to this category of dangerous fanatics. The people who destroyed the Bamiyan Buddha statues, and those who impose draconian laws against non-Moslems in the Maldives, also belong to that category.

    The Christian Portuguese who came to colonize Sri Lanka, and enslaved the peoples of many other Asian and South American nations, with the sword in one hand and the bible in the other, believing that they were spiritually superior, using religion to cover the murder of innocents and their unlimited greed, also belonged to this category.

    However,we know that they don’t represent the teachings of Jesus Christ either, or Christian people at large.

    Just as Moslems (both Sunni and Shia) of the Middle East should not be held responsible, unfairly demonized, and punished for the crimes of Europeans against the Jewish people, Sri Lankans don’t want Sri Lanka, or other Buddhist nations in South East Asia, to be tormented by Moslems of any branch, just because they are vulnerable and easy targets for fanatics supported by petro-dollars, and intolerant attitudes imported from abroad.
    The peoples of these Asian nations are not responsible for the stupid insults of Westerners against the Prophet, nor are they responsible for the loss of Moslem lands in the Middle East.

    Just as we ask Eelamist Tamils to cease and desist from separatist activities and undermining Sri Lanka, and for Sri Lankan Tamils to hold their duty as Sri Lankan citizens above all else, we ask Moslem Sri Lankans to do the same.

    There is no need to issue veiled threats against anyone, or to spout Moslem religious dogma here. That is counterproductive; you will only lose the support of those who, like me, think well of Moslems in general, and have no animosity whatever towards them.

    Here is a Press Release I received from the Eksath Sinhala Maha Sabha opposing the 13th Amendment and the Provincial Council System.

    ………………..
    Eksath Lanka Maha Sabha

    12 Templars Road,
    Mt Lavinia.
    Tel 0718011664
    Email cosmo@systec.lk

    Press release

    Abolish the 13th Amendment and Communal Parties
    and bring in a Senate of Occupational Groups representing Professional,
    Business , Cultural, and Trade Union Interest Groups .

    Abolition of the 13th amendment, was a demand from the time this was instituted under duress by India,. The SLFP opposed it declaring it a monster and a white elephant. The JVP organized an island wide campaign with black flags. The Sinhala patriotic movements considered it a concession to Tamil communalists aimed at separating the North and the East from the rest of the country.

    After 25 years of experimentation, there is no PC in the North of the country. The first PC in the North and East declared UDI and was dissolved since. . The allocation of nearly Rs 130 billion of tax payers money on PCs is wasted on emoluments of PC staff, who are duplicating the work of the Government Agents.

    In the meantime, the TNA as the representative of the LTTE has taken over the demand for a separate power base for the Tamils in the North and the East. They have demanded the withdrawal of the security forces from the North, dismantling of military bases, and devolution of Police and Land powers. While over 150,000 Muslims and Sinhalese displaced by Prabharana from the North over the thirty year period remain unsettled, Thesawalame sectarian land laws still persist, the TNA is busy shuttling between India and Sri Lanka in their effort to carve out a Tamil ethnic state over one third of the land area of the country, forgetting that the Tamil population in the North and East is less than 4 % of the total population of the country, and in league with the rump of the LTTE Diaspora and neo colonialist backers of the LTTE, demanding that the leaders of the country be brought to trial for defeating the LTTE .

    Lately the Supreme Court by way of clarification of sharing of legislative powers between the PCs and the centre government, has interpreted that the approval of PCs is needed before any Bill pertaining to matters devolved to PCs is taken up in the Legislature . The Parliament is thereby relegated to a secondary position as a legislature. What the LTTE could not win by way of terrorism is now conceded by way of the 13th amendment interpretation. .

    Expecting this anomalous situation, the ELMS, in 2009, has called for the amendment of the National Constitution to do away with PCs, and Communal Parties and to provide for an elected House of National Interests represented by non communal Political Parties and a Senate of Occupational Groups representing Professional Interests, Business Interests , Trade Union Interests and Cultural Interests We welcome the call by Defense Secretary for the abolition of the 13th amendment.

    Muslims who practice the Message of Islam as prescribed are prohibited to slander all Faiths. Please show me one of mine in Lankaweb. Perhaps you should also point out the veiled threats in this post.

    My response as a Muslim is to the following comments (which is completely off topic):-

    In Burma Muslim terrorists had attacked and sexually assaulted Buddhist women.

    These barbarians are spreading everywhere like ameaba and causing misery to everyone on the planet including animals.

    Now for HAJ they try to do another MUNNESWARAM type terrorist attack on thousands of animals. Why no one tries to stop this nonsense?

    Have you not heard just before an animal is tortured to be killed, it’s brain sends signals to self poison its flesh.

    There is a connection between excessive meat consumption and ameaba like growth, BOTHWAYS!!

    Excessive consumption of good meat—->massive population growth
    Excessive consumption of bad meat—->massive population growth decline.

    Wahabi terror is as bad as Tamil terror. The right thing to do is PIT one against the other.

    BAN polygamy. BAN torture of animals and humans. Have ONE law for all where MAN and WOMAN are equal.

    BTW: You can thank the Zionists for the polio vaccine and vitamin supplements that kept you healthy. Oh No! The Polio vaccine is an evil Zionist conspiracy! :D

    These above comments are not in keeping with respect to each others community who are striving to live as one nation in Peace. WHAT IS THE MOTIVE TO ATTACK ONE’S FAITH? RATHER THAN DEALS WITH THE ISSUES AT HAND.

    I completely agree with you that Zealots from each others community are a force against PEACE. Shouldn’t we make an effort to educate them to respect each others belief system and get on with the Economic Development. Enslavement is state of Mind.

    If any South East Asian countries have any evidence that as stated by you below, they should take it up with the International Court of Law, Diplomatic channels with the respective countries and demand for Justice. Some of these countries are well aware of Media propaganda. The Heads of States could have taken up this issue with ACD at the recent summit held in Kuwait.

    (Buddhist nations in South East Asia, to be tormented by Moslems of any branch, just because they are vulnerable and easy targets for fanatics supported by petro-dollars, and intolerant attitudes imported from abroad.)

    At the end of the day decency and respect will prevail.

  30. Ananda-USA Says:

    HussainFahmy,

    I will let those who have said indefensible things against Islam, defend themselves.

    However, regarding what is happening in South Asian nations, I recently wrote a comment about what is going on in the Muslim insurgency in Thailand, that is very similar to the recently defeated Eelamist Tamil insurgency in Sri Lanka. The facts I presented are a sample of what is published at Wikipedia.org and elsewhere.

    I know very well that the majority community of Thailand has not discriminated against Thai Muslims to warrant a violent rebellion that is following in the LTTE’s murderous footsteps. In fact, the consensus seems to be that there are no valid reasons for that insurgency, and that it is fueled by the importation of intolerant ideas, funds and other support from abroad coupled to perceived weakness and unwillingness of the Thai government to act strongly to defend the country. I have little doubt that, like in Sri Lanka, that the Thais will ultimately be forced to act strongly, but by then hundreds of thousands of people will have died in vain.

    That situation parallels what happened in Sri Lanka, where the Eelamist Tamils had no real cause for the pain, suffering and deaths they inflicted upon Sri Lankan citizens of all communities, provoking a conflict where there was none, because they were given every incentive to do it by the intolerant attitudes, funds and other support that flowed in from abroad, and because the government of Sri Lanka did not want to face up to its responsibility to fight them with the determination and will required to win. That failure to fight to win early extended the conflict for three decades, killed 150,000 people, and debilitated the economy of the country. We are still trying to recover from that destruction of our economy and society.

    Who are these foreigners promoting this Moslem insurgency in Thailand? I believe they are the same Wahhabi/ Salafist extremists who are now funding the rebellions in Syria and conflicts elsewhere. Who will die as a result of these activities? They will mostly be Moslems of all sects. I also believe that they are at the root of the moves currently being taken by the Sri Lanka Muslim Congress (SLMC) to carve out a Muslim state in the Eastern Province of Sri Lanka, piggybacking on what the TNA is trying to do in the Northern Province of Sri Lanka.

    That, then, is the price Sri Lanka will pay for allowing the 13th Amendment and the Provincial Council System to remain in force, under the guise of enabling “Communal Diversity.” Bah!

    Does this mean that the Moslem faith, as taught by Prophet Mohamed is evil? That Moslem culture and Moslem societies are flawed? No, they are not, far from it … but the people who misinterpret and misuse the Prophet’s message for their fanatical intolerant purposes are indeed evil and crazy; in the end they will destroy themselves.

    Whatever may happen in other countries, in Sri Lanka we have NOW LEARNED, and RECOGNIZE through BITTER experience the dangers of these moves cloaked in “human rights”, “democracy” and “diversity” arguments represent. We will NOT PERMIT THEM to raise their UGLY HEADS AGAIN in Our Motherland.

    A dogma can have any number of followers, can grow (mainly due to polygamy, misogyny – women being nothing more than factories for producing babies and petrodollar dole bulgers with nothing better to do in life), can attract social rejects without a life like Muriel Degauque (pls. google) of Belgium. Oh yes I forgot Michael Jackson also converted, so did Neil Armstrong and his pet parrot Patsy.

    BTW: Lorenzo you are wrong, when Saudi Arabia (and the ME) runs out of oil, a miracle will happen and the desert sands of the barren land will become food for all of Arabia.

    If anyone does something evil its evil, if anyone does something good its good. This applies to Zionists, Wahabis, LTTE, Americans anyone. Its as simple as that.

    But I must say that the belief that America is controlled by Zionists is rather (sarcastically – in case you may not get it) far fetched coz knowing how stingy Zionists are, it is unlikely America would be 15 trillion dollars in debt!

    But apart from the US government Zionists control everything else on this planet, including the relativity of the universe (Albert Einstein was a Zionist and his greatest conspiracy was the theory of relativity), they control the Noble prize selection committee and made sure that all recipients were either Zionists, half Zionists or had Zionist ancestors. Karl Marx was a Zionist so Russia, China and Cuba are all evil Zionist countries. When someone needs to sneeze or defecate its because a Zionist wants that person to do so.

    In short 14 million Zionists control 7 billion suckers of the plant and hardly anyone knows it.

    Since you are an expert on Relativity, you know that it simply says “Everything is Relative to the Observer”.

    So, let me ask you, have you heard of the more recent, but equally astounding, Sri Lankan Theory of Relativity?

    It is quite short, sweet and absolutely true really. It says “Everything belongs to the Relatives”!

    The corollary is that “Nothing belongs to the Observer” in Einstein’s theory!

  35. HussainFahmy Says:

    Ananda-USA – Appreciate your views.

    As a moderate, I will always remain a moderate no matter what and will ‘Love Lanka’ and defend it’s territorial integrity with the Mighty Pen and Moral Persuasion.

    Quite frankly these blasphemous comment has no effect on us; minorities. We are immuned to these slurs. It takes a few hundred people to construct a building and it only takes just one person to destroy it. Our concerns should be those with these concepts being voted through a Democratic process to govern Sri Lanka. The minority communities all over the world do not have major problems with the majority populations. But with a very small percentage (less than 0.1%) who have managed to grab power and incite disunity among peace loving communities who a have lived peacefully for centuries. I am not an expert in Thai politics to comment or would like to spend time to research further. What we know through experience and human nature is that people will always reject extreme oppression and dominance. This is Universal behaviour. Patience has its Limits.

    Some of us have lost all faith with the Media in general, as ground realities are never reported by the main stream Media. Main stream medias are controlled by corporate giants and have their own agenda. So we are left to make individual efforts to educate ourselves and exchange ideas that will benefit a happy and prosperous life. A forum of this sort is to gauge the pulse of the common people.

    I beg to differ that the Eelamist have no cause for pain. Just one incident, Please revisit Dr. N M Perera’s time (Think the 1970’s) on Land reform/Demonetization. Minorities have felt cheated in many occasion. There is no smoke without fire. HOW COME MINORITIES VOTE IN TNA/SLMC IF THESE PEOPLE HAVE BEEN ASSURED SECURITY IN THE FORM OF:-

    (A) MULTI-CULTURE (B) MULTILINGUAL (C) MULTI-FAITH (D) EQUAL OPPORTUNITIES TO ALL CITIZENS (E) RESPECT ALL COMMUNITIES, THEIR HONOUR AND PROPERTY RIGHTS. (F) NO COMMUNITY CLAIMS SUPREMACY OVER THE OTHER (G) STRICTLY MERIT BASED GOVERNANCE AND NATIONAL ASSISTANCE TO ALL CITIZENS (H) ALLEGIANCE TO ONE COUNTRY, ONE NATION. (I) MAKE A DIPLOMATIC EFFORT TO CONVINCE THE NEIGHBOUR TO BE PART OF THE SOLUTION AND RELIEVE THEIR CONCERNS AND ASSURE THEM OF A FAIR TREATMENT TO ALL COMMUNITIES.

    Sectarian division is a product of so-called Moslems in partnership with the Zionist (Please Note although all Zionists are Jews, not all Jews are Zionists), who are trying to take control of economic resources on behalf of again the so-called ‘International Community’ As a resident of the middle east, have met leaders of all walks of life and can assure that the information what you believe of Wahabi/Salafi is absolutely incorrect. Media paints its own picture on various Islamic Sects. So one may ask ‘what is these sects and why they are called Wahabi/Salafi/Shia/Sunni and others. Well all these are at one time were Islamic Scholars of Different schools of thought. Muslims have a diverse choice. All these choices have restrictions to apply; as they have to comply with the Noble Quran and The Sunnah (way of the Prophet (PBUH) and beside there are so many factors should be taken into consideration when Islamic Edicts are applied. Interpretations vary with some taking extreme positions on issues, while the others take a moderate interpretation. For starters Islam prohibits sects/caste system. All these labels are man made to satisfy nationalistic ideals. Muslims in essence are one community without open borders. Insha’Allah; the day will come all communities will move around without borders. The evidence to this effect from Islamic source as below:-

    And lo! this your religion is one religion and I am your Lord, so keep your duty unto Me. (The Noble Quran 22:52) But they (mankind) have broken their religion among them into sects, each sect rejoicing in its tenets. (The Noble Quran 22:53) So leave them in their error till a time. (The Noble Quran 22:54)

    As for your accusation that the SLMC are carving out a Muslim state in the Eastern Province is a bluff to enrich themselves unless of course mass expulsion of the legal citizens of Sri Lankans. Let not these communal parties (Horse Traders) dupe us any more. The beginning of conflict is when mutual rights of one another is violated.

    This is sooo funny. Do you people blame Zionists if you get constipation?

    Here is an MCQ
    Which one is the true message of the creator (a) Sunni (b) Shia (c) Sufi (d) Ahmadiyya
    My answer would be (d) :D – at least they have the guts to openly denounce violence!

    Moslems in partnership with the Zionist is real and lethal.
    This is possible because of stupid language of the Quran.

    Jihad is the struggle to free onself from greed, hatred and delusion. (This is the real meaning)
    Stupid Jihadist call is war (killing of non belivers) because they did not have a brain to understand proper Jihad.
    Killing of greed , hatred and delusion has be recommended by Budhha too.

    Zionist have taken advantage of foolishens of Moslems. 1.8 billion FOOLS clearly show how stupid the majority is.

    The mention of Einstein is sarcasm, or else why do you think I would mention Karl Marx??? Prof. Nalin De Silva showed how quantum mechanics, relativity, and a lot other things are full of flaws.

    When you expose the Al-Taqqiya of a (irrelevant and out of context) scripture preaching brain dead parrot the first thing you get called is a “Zionist”. I think I need not explain the rest, if you can read between the lines of my comments, its self explanatory……..

    As I always say, the best test for any Wahabi is to simply ask them about poor Rizana Nawfeek. If they stay silent or blame this poor girl for a crime she didn’t commit, then it alone shows their allegiance. Though I am not a UNP supporter, I really appreciate Ranjan Ramanayaka for his courage to speak up.

    I know, I was merely seizing your reference to Einstein to bring a smile to people’s lips with a joke, in the midst of all the heavy politics we are dissecting.

    No criticism intended by my comment. :)

    Wanted combatants of Sri Lanka funded to migrate by LTTE members in Australia -Report

    ColomboPage News Desk, Sri Lanka.
    Lankapage.com

    Oct 28, Colombo: Former Tamil Tiger combatants wanted for their crimes in Sri Lanka are being funded to migrate to Australia as asylum seekers by the former members of the terrorist group, Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE), already migrated to Australia, according to an Australian media report.

    Six former combatants posed as asylum seekers were arrested leaving Sri Lanka this year, with another six people who were apprehended as alleged smugglers, the Herald Sun reported Sunday.

    Sri Lankan authorities have alerted Australia of the possibility that former combatants already in Australia are funding the militants’ passage.

    The Australian Liberal MP for Canning Don Randall during his recent visit to Sri Lanka has been informed of Sri Lankan government’s efforts to prevent the possible militants leaving the country.

    Following his visit Randall has praised Sri Lanka’s efforts to tackle the problem and congratulated the Sri Lankan government for setting an example of how to deal with the “evil trade in people”.

    The MP from Canning has urged the Australian government to throw its weight behind the Sri Lankan government to control the flow of illegal migrants.

    “Australia needs to get behind GoSL with equipment, intelligence sharing and financial help in support of ongoing operations,” the MP has said assuring his support for Sri Lanka’s efforts to counter critics and criminal elements both at home and abroad.

    Sri Lanka’s High Commissioner Admiral Thisara Samarasinghe has said that the country would co-operate with Australia with information about any former combatants who had not been rehabilitated since the war ended in 2009.

    “Anybody who comes here, if they have been involved in atrocities in Sri Lankan they could be wanted people. With the standing of our friendship we could share information on such people with Australia,” the High Commissioner has been quoted as saying.

    Meanwhile, eight more Sri Lankan asylum seekers have opted to return home from Christmas Island and they were flown back on Saturday.

    These murders posing as “asylum seekers” should be prosecuted for the pre-medidated murder of the missing 3 crew members thrown overboard, to the fullest extent of the law.

    Sri Lanka arrests 14 pirate asylum seekers returned by Australia

    ColomboPage News Desk, Sri Lanka.

    Oct 27, Colombo: Sri Lanka police arrested the 14 asylum seekers deported by Australia Saturday when they disembarked at the Katunayake International Airport from a special charter flight from Australia.

    The Australian authorities detained 15 asylum seekers, who pirated a fishing trawler in the mid sea off the island’s southern coast on October 13 after assaulting its occupants and left them to die in the sea and sailed to Australia.

    An Australian Customs Vessel, operating under the control of Border Protection Command has intercepted the pirated trawler named Thejan with the 15 people onboard north-west of the Cocos Islands late Thursday night.

    Two fishermen seriously injured during the attack by the asylum seekers were rescued by two merchant vessels in mid sea and handed over to the Sri Lankan Navy.

    It has been reported that part of the crew of the trawler and the skipper are among the suspects of the attack.

    Sri Lankan authorities charging the 15 asylum seekers with attempted murder and robbery issued warrants for their arrest and sought Interpol assistance to find the suspects. They also alerted the Australian authorities to expect the stolen ship reaching their shores.

    Australian authorities deported all but one asylum seeker who will later be assessed for his removal.

    Australian media reported that one of the asylum seekers had earlier entered Australia illegally but volunteered to return to Sri Lanka in September on the promise of the $3300 government resettlement package.

    According to a Sri Lankan official, the 14 suspects will face several charges including attempted murder, abduction and theft.

    Tamil Nadu police had seized explosives from activists of Sri Lanka terrorist group

    ColomboPage News Desk, Sri Lanka.

    Oct 28, Colombo: The Tamil Nadu police had seized explosives from the activists of Sri Lanka’s defeated terrorist group Liberation Tigers of Tamil Elam (LTTE), a tribunal conducting hearing on the proscription of the group in India has been told.

    Two police inspectors of Tamil Nadu police had told the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Tribunal set up in Chennai to evaluate the ban on the LTTE that they had seized explosives from three LTTE activists.

    The government counsel, appearing before the tribunal headed by the Justice V K Jain, has told the judge that there was need to continue the ban on LTTE as the defeated Tamil Tiger terrorist group is continued to be a threat to the territorial integrity and sovereignty of India.

    Meanwhile, the pro-LTTE Tamil Nadu political leader, the general secretary of the Marumalarchi Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (MDMK), V. Goplasamy aka Vaiko has also appeared before the tribunal and opposed the continuation of the ban, according to a PTI report.

    Vaiko had told the Indian media that there is no truth to the claim that LTTE is present in Tamil Nadu and LTTE did not exist in India.

    The Indian government declared the LTTE a banned organization in 1994 after an LTTE suicide bomber assassinated former Indian Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi in 1991.

    The central government of India extended the ban on LTTE in July 2012 saying that it is necessary to declare the group as an ‘unlawful association’ since it continues to adopt a strong anti-India posture and pose a grave threat to the security of its citizens.

    A pro-LTTE Canada-based Tamil making representations for LTTE has told the tribunal that LTTE is not fighting for a separate Tamil state in India and therefore it is unfair to ban LTTE in India.

    The tribunal will hear the case again in Madurai and Chennai, officials have said.

    Sri Lanka comprehensively defeated the terrorist group in the country three years ago in May 2009 and ended the 30-year long terrorism in the country, but the supporters of the terrorist group in Tamil Nadu state of India, certain European countries including the UK, France, and Canada have been actively involved in attempts to revive the group.
