\u2018If we want to get out of the situation we are in now,one option is\u2026 Greater integration with India<\/em> and this is not just for the Northern Province,<\/em> it\u2019s for the whole of Sri Lanka<\/em>.\u2019 Former Central Bank Governor Indrajit oomaraswamy, Sangarapillai Memorial Address, 21 January 2023<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

 \u2018The most dangerous moment of WW2\u2019 according to the English genocidaire & Prime Minister Winston Churchill, \u2018the one which caused him the greatest alarm\u2019, was the news that \u2018the Japanese fleet was heading for Ceylon\u2019 in 1942.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

     Sri Lanka, under unrelenting siege for over 500 years, has seen many a \u2018dangerous\u2019 moment. And in these next few weeks we shall encounter a few more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

     Coomaraswamy belongs to a tribal clan that has served English colonialism loyally for almost 200 years. He is gently dropping a hint \u2013 if we don\u2019t behave, here\u2019s what lies in store\u2026 or rather here\u2019s what\u2019s left on the shelf of the then-Lipton now-Unilever teashop. (We must add, the biggest supplier of goods to an average teashop \u2013 there are over a 100,000 at least \u2013 is England\u2019s Unilever).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 In 1989, after the Janatha Vimukthi Peramuna leader, Rohana Wijeweera was murdered, the remaining JVP leadership is said to have responded, \u2018The Handle of the Teacup may be Broken, but the Teashop is still Open!<\/em>\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

     Having successfully prevented & sabotaged modern industry<\/strong>, let alone opposed minimal local production to ensure military, financial, food & health security, the \u2018rolling over\u2019 economy promoted since 1948 is being rebooted. The import-export plantation merry-go-round, the 24-7 teashop \u2013 is up for an overhaul. While this week\u2019s so-called media revelation is about the USA\u2019s terrorist sabotage of the NordStream pipeline, the real revelation is how the whites have blown up entire countries\u2019 economies\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

     The JVP leader was murdered after a short though horrific southern war ignited by the entry of the Indian army into the country in 1987. The intrusion was preceded by a threat veiled as a humanitarian aerial dropping of parippu to halt a military advance that had cornered the LTTE leadership. The war was continued for another 22 years<\/p>\n\n\n\n

     36 years after the Indo-Lanka Discord, India\u2019s aid, or promises, now arrive by sea and email, while the threats still arrive by air. This week, after several valiant attempts to declare they\u2019re above the fray (of what has been declared \u2018the\u2019 if not \u2018a\u2019 \u2018national question\u2019), the JVP has been forced into another cul-de-sac: \u201813 no solution to any problem, JVP leader declares\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

     Indeed, it was the 5th<\/sup> lesson in the famous 5 lessons of that 1971 JVP leader, which declared India a sub-imperialist state that seeks to annex Sri Lanka\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

     Sri Lanka became a US colony<\/strong> in all but name since 1948. All that\u2019s been missing are the military bases. There is no doubt the US would gladly allow India to invade and then also fund an armed resistance to the intrusion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 The Sri Lankan media, proud to praise our literacy, is in no hurry to improve our numeracy<\/strong>, geography<\/strong> or any other modern skill. Africa, Somalia & Zimbabwe in particular, are constantly evoked as euphemisms for \u2018failed states\u2019, etc. Yet, wising up to our neighbours, and not just TamilNadu (which wishes to turn us into a captive home market for their industrial goods), would prepare us for what is next on the teashop menu:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Check this scenario: The US\u2019 Pursuit of Imperial Military Base in Northern Somalia Fuels Brutal War: After the US and the EU stage-managed the political collapse of the Somali Republic in 1991, a secessionist Somali National Movement (SNM) was set up in northern Somalia to carve out a group of states to form a new country called Somaliland. The US military now wants a military base in exchange! (see Random Notes<\/em><\/strong>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 Life offers the greatest theatre of the absurd: Just as it was revealed that the US & its NATO allies \u2013 with Norway supposedly taking over England\u2019s lead poodle role \u2013 was behind the terrorist attack on the NordStream pipeline, we find the Commonwealth Secretary General \u2013 a lost off-Black woman born in Dominica \u2013 Patricia Scotland unleashing English gas at an inaugural lecture for the President\u2019s brother\u2019s NGO Geopolitical Cartographers<\/strong>, an \u2018ocean thinktank\u2019 on the Commonwealth\u2019s role in facing \u2018Polycrisis\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

     Let\u2019s bet this political cartographer did not reveal what type of terrorism the US will unleash under the seas around us? Meanwhile also stay sceptical about the \u2018revelations\u2019 by US \u2018maverick\u2019 journalist Seymour Hersh. While the eco-lambs have been silent about the largest \u2018single largest spill of methane gas in human history\u2019, the truth is the US bombing of the pipeline is but one small part of the devastation the US war on Russia has caused. And Hersh leaves out the role of the English (recall Liz Truss\u2019 Jesus-like declaration, \u2018It is done!\u2019) and others like the Danes and the Swedes and the Germans themselves! (ee Sovereignty<\/em><\/strong>, What\u2019s Wrong with the Hersh Report)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
