Mahanuwara.<\/em><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Minister Ali Sabry should make a\npublic apology to the Sinhala nation and the Buddhist clergy of this country and\nresign from the post of Minister of Justice immediately in view of his\nfollowing uncalled for anti-government, anti-President and anti-Sinhala Nation comments\npurported to have been made by him that appeared in the Sunday Times of 3.10\n2021 and also broadcasted over the news the same day (if that news is true). If\nhe doesn\u2019t do that the President should immediately sack him and appoint a\nSinhala Buddhist like Wijedasa Rajapaksa to fill that vacancy.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because these nasty comments made by\nAli has already ignited a island wide wave of anti \u2013 President, anti-government\nand anti-Sinhala anti-Buddhist tension like wild fire among the communal minded\nand extremist Muslims as already exposed by the communal comments made by a wide\nrange of Muslim extremists, as if they are living in an Arabian country.&nbsp; I am still waiting to see the wave of statements\nfrom people like Rauf Hakeem and ilk such as Asad Sali, Abdul Rahuman and\nHisbulla within the country and the reaction including protests and even trade\nembargoes and diplomatic interference from Muslim countries the world over,\ntarnishing the image of this country and the GR Government putting the country\nand its economy from the prying pan to the fire. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just imagine for a movement as to how\nAli Sabry an unknown man becoming a key personality in the country and the\nwhole world overnight thanks to President as he was appointed as the Minister\nof Justice in this country by him in 2019. He is not even a MP elected by the\npeople. Therefore he was not responsible to the people but only to his Party\nleader. This is a very good example to &nbsp;where\nan appointed MP becomes not answerable even to his own Party leader who has\ngiven his\/her job when it comes to his personal and communal interest. This is\nanother strong reason as to why the National list should be abolished. In this\ncase now it appears that Ali Sabry is not responsible even to his Party leader He\nwas brought to Parliament by GR through that rogue list of the so-called\nNational list which I have been agitating all governments to do away since it\nis utterly undemocratic and unconstitutional to have a backdoor list like that\nin a democratic society. &nbsp;I just can\u2019t\nimagine as to how he could be so ungrateful to the President. &nbsp;If the President had not brought him he would\nnever have been even a back bencher MP. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a way I am not surprised on his\nbehavior as a Muslim who is only a descendant of another itinerant Muslim\ntrader who had come to this paradise Island of gems and ivory of the Sinhala\npeople as a wondering sea farer for trader in the distant past, either from\nIndia or the Arab world who were welcomed by the foolish Sinhala Kings of the\nyore, the same way present day politicians do, not only with gems and ivory but\nwith land and even local women to be married as their wives. These were the\npeople who had been spying against the Sinhala people as a community right\nthroughout history. As a community they are worse than any other as an\nungrateful set of people. The best example is the Muslims in the Panama Pattuwa\nin the Eastern Province who descend from Muslim refugees descending from those\nwho were settled there by King Senarath in his magnanimity in 1665 when they\nrushed in to him and pleaded for protection after mass scale killing by\nPortuguese in the SW coastal belt, now claiming a separate Muslim kingdom. So\nhistorically right throughout, Muslims were an anti- Sinhala community \u2018eating\nthe ear while resting on the horn\u2019 as the famous Sinhala saying goes<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore there is nothing new or\nsurprising in Ali Sabry\u2019s inherent behavior that is a common trait to all\nMuslims in this country that never disappear until and unless they also\ndisappear from this land of the Sinhala nation. What I can\u2019t understand is the\nfolly and the inability of the Sinhala leaders to realize this gospel truth. Starting\nfrom the 2019 Good Friday carnage Ai Sabry had been supporting the Muslim\nterrorist and the Muslim community at large although GR does not know it or\npretends to be so.. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So in this case the fault is with the\nPresident and nobody else. He should be ashamed for appointing Ali Sabry in the\nfirst place as a National list MP and then as the Minister of Justice in this country\nof all the Cabinet positions, in this time tested and historically proven\nbackdrop in this country which had been a Sinhala Buddhist Kingdom for more\nthan 2500 years. In fact I as a person who had canvassed widely and wrote\nvolumes for him and who had also voted him and as the first man and perhaps the\nonly person to predict his victory long before the Presidential&nbsp; Election that he will definitely win the\nElection with a thumping majority. I had had also predicted him of this\nappointment as Minister of Justice is going to be a political suicide and it\nmight end up even in a collapse of the Government. But unfortunately he didn\u2019t\ncare a penny as he thinks he is always right. &nbsp;I, as a person who has worked with people like\nMrs Bandaranayka,&nbsp; Lalith Atulathmudala\nand President Premadasa, was perplexed to have this bitter experience as long\nas he is surrounded by the present set of Advisers I can assure, that he can\nnever get out of this trap and continue rapidly to his downfall unless he bring\nabout some radical changes replacing his present set of selfish and- self-seeking\nadvisors &nbsp;and Ministers like Ali Subry,\nAluthgamage and Keheliya Rambukwella with some saner blood <strong>who put the country and the people first<\/strong>, <strong>rather than their purses , the day the entire 6.9 million voter base\nturning against him is not that far<\/strong>. &nbsp;If he fails to take immediate corrective\nmeasures,&nbsp; I&nbsp; would like to remind him of a famous saying\nby Mao Tsetung&nbsp; it is with the same\nhands that put you on the thrown that the people will again lift and throw you\non the ground\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr. Sudath Gunasekara 3.40 Am on 1st November 2021.
