S.Perera<\/em><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Mahinda Rajapakse, Gotabhaya Rajapakse and Sarath Fonseka were the trio that brought terrorism in Sri Lanka to a conclusion. The breaking up that trio was the desire of the West manipulated by the Tamil diaspora to isolate Mahinda Rajapakse and bring charges of war crimes against Gotabhaya Rajapakse.\u00a0 Not only they planned the break up, but also made him a political rival of\u00a0 the President Mahinda Rajapakse.<\/p>\n<p>Naturally the idea of the possibility of becoming the President of Sri Lanka may have tempted Sarath Fonseka to give into USA State Department to consent to become a part of the USA effort of regime change.<\/p>\n<p>What really made Sarath Fonseka breakaway from his natural friends to become a foe of the President and Gotabhaya who made him\u00a0 a hero and made what he is as he himself \u00a0said in a Television Interview.<\/p>\n<p>When Mahinda Rajapakse won the Presidential election in 2005, Gotabhaya Rajapakse who had by then retired from the Sri Lanka Armed Forces had come to Sri Lanka to be with his brother. He was naturally invited by Mahinda\u00a0 Rajapakse to be with him to take over the Defence Ministry and help him\u00a0 in the settlement of\u00a0 the terrorist issue.\u00a0 He had accepted.<\/p>\n<p>When Sarath Fonseka who was then scheduled to retire knew about it requested Gotabhaya Rajapakse to\u00a0 allow him to continue to serve in the\u00a0 Army . Sarath Fonseka knew\u00a0 with Gotabhaya as the Defence Secretary there is finally the appropriate people in place to end terrorism militarily. That\u00a0 had been his unrealised dream, working under \u00a0then Presidents JR, Premadasa, and Chndrika .<\/p>\n<p>Gotabhaya Rajapakse had requested\u00a0 his brother the President to stop the retirement\u00a0 of Sarath Fonseka and allow him to continue in Service as the Commander of the Sri Lanka Army.\u00a0 Accordingly Sarath Fonseka was sworn in as the Commander of the Sri Lanka Army on\u00a0 6 December, 2005.<\/p>\n<p>Gotabhaya Rajapakse was a Lieutenant Colonel in the Sri Lanka Army\u00a0 and had fought the LTTE terrorists along side Sarath Fonseka .\u00a0 Theywere brothers in Arms.\u00a0 Decent people build bonds of amity\u00a0 that stand through time not allowing personal interests or\u00a0 material advantages to break them.<\/p>\n<p>When Jaffna was under siege by the terrorists the then Colonel Sarath Fonseka led the successfulmidnight express\u201d operation along with the Lieutenant Colonel Gotabhaya Rajapakse to rescue hundreds of besieged soldiers. Lt.General Fonseka was the victim of a suicide bomb on\u00a0 25 April, 2006 in which he was seriously injured and nine others were killed.\u00a0 He recovered rapidly and joined the Defence Secretary Gotabhaya Rajapakse and President Mahinda Rajapakse\u00a0 to\u00a0 continue the battle against the terrorists eliminating them \u00a0in May, 2009.<\/p>\n<p>Sarath Fonseka\u2019s friend\u00a0 in arms\u00a0 Gotabhaya Rajapakse is himself \u00a0a veteran soldier . He was commended\u00a0 by the former President \u00a0J.R.Jayawardhane\u00a0 for his bravery and was awarded Rana Wickrama Padakkama. President R.Premadasa and President Wijetunga\u00a0 awarded him with the\u00a0 Rana Sura Padakkama for valour in combat\u00a0 and bravery in action.<\/p>\n<p>Gotabhaya Rajapakse lead under his Command the 1st Battalion of the Gajaba Regiment in the \u00a0Vadamarachhci Operation in 1987 and Operation Thrividabalaya in 1990 to rescue Jaffna peninsula and the Jaffna Fort from terrorist control. He escaped\u00a0 a terrorist suicide bomb attack on his life\u00a0 on\u00a0 1<sup>st<\/sup> December,2006.<\/p>\n<p>This is the metal of which \u00a0Gotabhaya Rajapakse is made and\u00a0 such is the man the former criminals of the JVP and Ranil Wickramasinghe\u2019s FCID and Maithripala Sirisena\u2019s Presidential investigation Commission is trying to vilify by their silly\u201d interrogations.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sarath Fonseka should therefore be honoured to be on the side of a friend\u00a0 like Gotabhaya rather than with Ranil Wickramasinghe, Ravi Karunanayake, Mangala Samaraweera and Lakshman Kiriella who mocked the Sri Lanka Armed Forces, and who are now preparing to allow foreign judges and prosecutors\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 to try the valiant Armed Forces of Sri Lanka for war crimes.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Sarath Fonseka had knowingly or unknowingly fallen into a trap set by the USA State Department to break up the Sri Lanka\u2019s honoured\u00a0 trio Mahinda Rajapakse, Sarath Fonseka and\u00a0 Gotabhaya Rajapakse, to become a tool of USA in its abject policy of regime change.<\/p>\n<p>Somewhere in November or December, 2009 Maithripala Sirisena now the President of Sri Lanka made a statement\u00a0 that the West is making use of Sarath Fonseka to bring\u00a0 a regime change in Sri Lanka.<\/p>\n<p>Probability of this attempt to win over Sarath Fonseka to the side of USA to plan a regime change in Sri Lanka, became evident\u00a0 viewed from the USA\u2019s role in the Pedro Carmen\u2019led coup to bring down the Venezuelan head of state\u00a0 President Hugo Chavez in April 2002. The decision to chase Chavez from power had been planned\u00a0 six months before. The key players of the coup were from the Venezuelan\u00a0 navy and air force: Pedro Carmona,\u00a0 Vice Admiral Carlos Molina, Air Force Colonel Pedro Soto.\u00a0 They had been met by USA and Molina and Soto had received\u00a0 US$ 1000,000 each\u00a0 from a Miamy Bank to denounce Chavez.<\/p>\n<p>It had been later found that US funnelled around million US Dollars to the Organisation that moved the idea of anti-Chavez coup through the National Endowment for Democracy( of which Chndrika is a member). USA had recognised the coup as a regime change\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The modern US foreign policy is that if a head of State of a country is considered acting against the interest of USA, it starts plans with the opposition of that country, anti government factions, and its military personnel for a regime change.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Isn\u2019t it therefore possible that US department had been using Sarath Fonseka\u00a0 as a possible tool in their plan to remove Mahinda Rajapakse from power ?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There were speculations as to what exactly was the reason why Sarath Fonseka went to America immediately after winning the military operations against the terrorists and eliminating terrorism.\u00a0 Was it really to see his daughters and renew his green card\u00a0 or\u00a0 did he have other motives ?<\/p>\n<p>It has been said that during his visit\u00a0 the US Department of Homeland Security had requested Sarath Fonseka to volunteer to answer questions on the crimes allegedly committed by Defence Secretary Gotabhaya Rajapakse<\/p>\n<p>This prompts\u00a0 the question, did Sarath Fonseka\u2019s recent trip to U.S had other ulterior motives than visiting his daughters and renewing his U.S green card?<\/p>\n<p>During the visit the US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) requested Fonseka to volunteer and answer questions on the crimes allegedly committed by Defense Secretary Gotabaya Rajapaksa. Sarath Fonseka has allegedly agreed\u00a0 to meet with the officials of the US Department of Homeland Security, without informing either the Sri Lanka Embassy\u00a0 or the Defense Secretary.<\/p>\n<p>What was really being discussed under the pretext of\u00a0 an interview by the US Department of Homeland Security ? Was it really the US Department of Home Security that was requesting the interview ?<\/p>\n<p>Were there plans to conduct a coup after the defeat of the LTTE? Was Sarath Fonseka\u2019s running for the Presidency against Mahinda Rjapakse a part of a plan hatched abroad to bring down the Mahinda Rajapakse Government ?<\/p>\n<p>Why did Sarath Fonseka had a secret meeting with the US Ambassador\u00a0 Patricia Butenis\u00a0 after his return from USA ?<\/p>\n<p>That is not all. Why did Sarath Fonseka leave to China to visit the Arms Suppliers, at a decisive moment in the final stage of the military operations against the terrorists ?<\/p>\n<p>The improbable answer he had given when he was asked was that he had been invited by the Chinese arm suppliers two years before\u00a0 and the tickets he had been given were due to expire and he wanted to use the tickets before the expiry of their validity. He had said that he had gone with the permission of the Defence Secretary.<\/p>\n<p>Did the Defence Secrtetary smelt something fishy in Sarath Fonseka\u2019s visit to China at that crucial time ?<\/p>\n<p>Were the Forces behind Sarath Fonseka planning to drag on the war for some more time and force the President Mahinda Rajapakse to stop the war and bring Prabhakaran to the negotiating table ?<\/p>\n<p>Incidently Sarath Fonseka had said that there would not be a hero\u2019s day speech by Prabhakaran, but instead of that there would be peace talks with Prabhakaran.\u00a0 Wasn\u2019t it that the West wanted ?<\/p>\n<p>The accusation that 3500 civilians were killed came after General Sarth Fonseka had left the country to China and Gotabhaya had taken over the Command of the Army.<\/p>\n<p>Why did Sarath Fonseka wanted to procure arms after almost defeating the terrorists ? Why was there a mass gathering of battle tanks on the 60<sup>th<\/sup> anniversary of the Army ? Were they to be turned towards the temple trees?<\/p>\n<p>Sarath Fonsek and the forces behind him were\u00a0 backed by the West, and no one could have saved Mahinda or Gotabhaya Rajapakse if there was a military coup.<\/p>\n<p>There had been a long held plan by the USA government to hold the Defence Secretary Gotabhaya Rajapakse responsible for war crime charges. There are doubts about the officials supposed to have been from the US Department of Home Security\u00a0 that contacted Sarath Fonseka\u00a0 to arrange an interview.<\/p>\n<p>In this respect there are statements made by the former Foreign Minister Bogollagama ( strange that he has still not been taken by Ranil Wickramasinghe\u2019s FCID for investigation.Perehaps he may be taken soon) in the Praliament about Sarath Fonseka\u2019s\u00a0 safe return\u00a0 home , he had said\u00a0 that there is an organisation in USA called the Tamils against Genocide, which is trying to trap various Sri Lankan Officials. He did not elaborate on it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Quote:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;For the past year I have written about Bruce Fein in many articles that have been widely published and circulated. He is reportedly paid $100,000 per month to tell lies in Washington about the government of Sri Lanka, and to take it to the International Courts &#8211; along with its Defence Secretary, Army Commander and Chief Presidential Advisor &#8211; with charges of genocide and other war crimes supposedly committed against the Tamils in Sri Lanka. During the past year Mr. Fein has worked for three LTTE front organizations; his current client is a US based orgniasation called &#8220;Tamils against Genocide.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;\u2026\u2026\u2026. Recent actions and policy decisions made by the US government indicate that Mr. Fein has gotten the ear of Hillary Clinton, Senator Patrick Leahy (current chairman of the Judiciary Committee) and Senator Robert Casey (Chairman of the Foreign Relations Subcommittee).&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>End quote. (The Island, 11.06.09)<\/p>\n<p>All this goes to show from where came the material for Zaid Ra\u2019adh Al Hussains UN Report which ended up as the US resolution against Sri Lanka sponsored by the destructive government of Maithripala Sirisena an Ranil Wickramasinghe.<\/p>\n<p>This is a long held plan by the USA\u00a0 on the request of the Tamils against Genocide, its Attorney Bruce Fein and others heavily paid by the blood money of the Tamils against Genocide.<\/p>\n<p>If Sarath Fonseka ever comes to read this he will now know th\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 at he had been used as a cats paw by the USA and its local Agents Chandrika and Ranil Wickramasinghe, to put in place a plan masterminded by the Tamils against Genocide bagging into its scheme the US Government.<\/p>\n<p>Sarath Fonseka should now realise that his ending up in a prison cell after helping in the elimination of terrorism in Sri Lanka was his own making.\u00a0 He should at least now understand that his place is with Gotabhaya Rajapakse and Mahinda Rajapakse, and not with anti Sri Lanka UNP , pseudo Marxist JVP playing its true roll with the UNP, American Agent Chandrika, unreliable Mangala Samaraweera, or the Tamil Ravi Karunanayake.<\/p>\n<p>Every patriot worth being called such should join hands with all to make the Sirisena Ranil Government to openly refuse to accept the Said Ra\u2019adh Al Hussain\u2019s UN Report and reject it as it is evident that the purpose of the US Resolution was to make the Tamils against Genocide achieve what the terrorists had failed to achieve and set up their Tamil Eelam State downgrading the sovereignty of Sri Lanka.<\/p>\n<p>Reference for this article comes from Articles published in Lanka web.<\/p>\n<p>Sarath Fonseka the humble Patriotic Soldier of Sri Lanka by Noor Nizam (2.11.2009)<\/p>\n<p>Sarath Fonseka and Regime Change in Sri Lanka by\u00a0 A.Weerasekara (6.12.2009)<\/p>\n<p>Sarath Fonseka and DHS: More Questions than\u00a0 Answers by Lasanda Kurukulasuriya (The Island -11.6.2009)<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/colombotelegraph.com\/2011\/11\/21\/wikileaks-fonsekas-hawaii-visit-cancelled-due-to-his-involvement-in-human-rights-violations\/\"><strong>WikiLeaks: Fonseka\u2019s Hawaii visit cancelled due to his involvement in human-rights violations<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Related news link to Fonseka\u2019s DHS interview \u2013\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/colombotelegraph.com\/2011\/10\/27\/wikileaks-fonseka-tried-to-shift-blame-on-war-crime-to-gota\/\"><strong>WikiLeaks: Fonseka tried to shift blame on war crime to\u00a0Gota<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/wikileaks.org\/tag\/PGOV_0.html\">PGOV<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/wikileaks.org\/tag\/PREL_0.html\">PREL<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/wikileaks.org\/tag\/PREF_0.html\">PREF<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/wikileaks.org\/tag\/PHUM_0.html\">PHUM<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/wikileaks.org\/tag\/PTER_0.html\">PTER<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/wikileaks.org\/tag\/EAID_0.html\">EAID<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/wikileaks.org\/tag\/MOPS_0.html\">MOPS<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/wikileaks.org\/tag\/CE_0.html\">CE<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"Http:\/\/www.kalaya.org\/i091104.html\">Http:\/\/www.kalaya.org\/i091104.html<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Charles.
