The surge to save Sri Lanka is on and is cutting right across party political lines.<\/p>\n<p>Never before in its recent history has the country faced the perils it faces today. The Nation State of Sri Lanka is being dismantled; the foundation for provincial fiefdoms is being created; Western extremists of Tamil origin, dishonestly described as \u2018Diaspora\u2019, are preparing to invade the country on the pretext of a terrorist jamboree; foreign judges are in the process of being selected to be seconded into Sri Lanka\u2019s judicial system to sit on the bench of \u2018hybrid\u2019 kangaroo courts\u2019 that would ensure conviction of soldiers who saved our country from terrorism.<\/p>\n<p>In the annals of Sri Lanka\u2019s history, the Army of the people of the country won their greatest battle when they decimated US terrorist forces at Nandikadal.<\/p>\n<p>The political leadership of Sirisena \u2013 Wickramasinghe \u2013 Kumaratunga &#8211; is reversing all that was gained by the life, blood, sweat and tears of the people of the country. The Kautsky of Sri Lanka who destroyed the trade union movement in the country with his unplanned 1981 General Strike acts as the spokesman for Washington and Wickramasinghe.<\/p>\n<p>The Courts of Sri Lanka may not judge the traitors of Sri Lanka but history will. At the forthcoming General elections the people will judge them.<\/p>\n<p>The trend is clear. People are not voting for the UNP or anyone even distantly associated with the UNP. People, including UNPers, are voting across party lines and giving their vote to anyone but not to the UNP or any other in their bandwagon that would surely dismember the country.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rahul says Yes, the nation is in crisis and the people have woken up to the danger that stares the country in the face.
