After the last action is taken rightly or wrongly we shall all endure what comes out of our collective action!<\/p>\n<p>To think that on that blessed day of 19 May 2009 we had it all, is surreal now. Did we squander it all on the 8 January 2015 or can we re-claim and re-instate our hard-won victory today?<\/p>\n<p>Sri Lanka does nothing by halves; she handed defeat to a killer organisation LTTE- described by the US State Department as the most ruthless terrorist organisation in the world\u201d &#8211; under the able command of former President Rajapakse- a world first! We woke up the next morning to a golden era of peace, progress and hope and there was eternal gratitude in our hearts for the 27,000 mainly Sinhala braves who fought a valiant and an honourable war and achieved a breathtaking victory. All civilians rejoiced the victory and thankful to be free citizens of a country with a great future again; Tamil children started schooling instead of carrying machine guns and stopping bullets and the people were beginning to feel like the proud nation they were in the past!<\/p>\n<p>Alas, it was too good to last! Immediately after, it was time to undo the greatest winning combination. There was an ugly quarrel among the winning team in which no party acted appropriately resulting in the incarceration of the Army Commander of the winning team in the most inglorious manner- splitting the Sinhala loyalties in half! Sri Lanka\u2019s enemies rejoiced and from then on the government was looking to the minority votes to stay alive and stay safe from the periodic threats from Geneva. Sri Lanka still prevailed. President Rajapakse and\u00a0 the best Foreign Secretary Sri Lanka has ever known- Mr Gotabhaya Rajapakse\u00a0 still proved a powerful combination in taking the country forward which saw Sri Lanka shine with development projects, a network of first class motorways and clean and beautiful cities! Time healed some of the wounds and it looked almost as if we were re-consolidating.<\/p>\n<p>Once again, we could not hang on to a good thing for long! The President declared a presidential election two years before one was due thanks to simply bad advice from the clowns he allowed to hover around him! Sri Lanka\u2019s enemies from India, Britain, USA and the Global Tamil terror psychopathic clinic took the new opportunity with glee. Much has been said about everything that transpired over the last intolerable 100 days plus, from<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\u00a0*the great cleaning job of the Central Bank,<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 *ditching of development and infrastructure projects,<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0 \u00a0 * \u00a0handing back the city pavements to the traders,<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0 \u00a0 * \u00a0closing 59 Army camps in the North,<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 *releasing acres of critical land to refugees from India with a UNICHR card,<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0 \u00a0 * \u00a0releasing key terrorists from incarceration or rehabilitation, to<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0 \u00a0 * \u00a0sentencing to death the first top notch ranawiru based on the evidence\u201d given by terrorists themselves,<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>that these need not be re-iterated.<\/p>\n<p>What is left to say is that if we as a nation get this election wrong we cannot blame anyone else for not giving us fore-warning.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>\u00a01. \u00a0 \u00a0Wijayakala Mahendran MP from the UNP publicly warned that as soon as UNP forms the new government\u201d (that is if it does) all the Police Stations will be dismantled in the North and Prabhakaran\u2019s (who she publicly announces is her leader) statue will grace the Province. It is also pertinent to remember that her election bill boards clearly mark the Eelaam demarcations on the Sri Lanka map.<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0 \u00a02. \u00a0A TNA MP publicly declared that they are going to take revenge from our ranawiru forces for the killing of their leaders\u201d (meaning the LTTE) and that after Sunil Ratnayaka who has now been given the death sentence there are 41 more in the list\u201d.<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0 \u00a0 3.\u00a0Rauf Hakeem has openly talked about a pact he has with Ranil which hands Muslims a separate administrative unit\u201d in the East.
