This should be an example to Sri Lanka in the face of\u00a0 the threat of Tamil racism which should be barred not by a foolish reconciliation process, but by rejecting the demands\u00a0 of the Tamils, and \u00a0the Sinhala people uniting burying their political differences to protect and secure their religious and cultural heritage.<\/p>\n<p>The protection of the\u00a0 religious and cultural heritage of the majority Sinhala\u00a0 would naturally be the protection of the rights , religions and the cultures of the minorities.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Tamils have no specials rights over and above the Sinhala and Muslim people.\u00a0 The Tamils of yesterday and today are responsible for suffering of the people of Sri Lanka through a ruthless terrorism. Therefore today the Sri Lanka Tamils have to learn to live with the Sinhala and Muslims sharing their rights and priviledges., without making absurd demands for reconciliation and a separate identity.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>France paid homage to the Police officer who was assassinated by the Islamist terrorists\u00a0 on the 22 of April, 2017 wounding two others . The whole of France wept this horrific terrorist attack, which reminded me of\u00a0 not one, such murder , but massacres\u00a0 of police officers military officers soldiers and innocent civilians\u00a0 in thousands\u00a0 every now and then for thirty years by ruthless Tamil terrorists in Sri Lanka, which these French people and the French Government did not morn.<\/p>\n<p>The French Government then instead of condemning that terrorism in Sri Lanka sought to defend and even save the terrorists when the government was carrying out a successful military operation to eliminate terrorists.<\/p>\n<p>Bernard Kushner the Foreign Minister of France\u00a0 went along with\u00a0 David Miliband the Foreign Minister of UK to Sri Lanka to demand the Government of Sri Lanka to stop military operation against terrorists.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Sri Lanka terrorists\u00a0 were not terrorists for France then, as they were not a threat to France, UK , USA or other European countries.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Therefore I wondered whether Sri Lanka should sympathise with France as those terrorists\u00a0 of France are still not a threat to Sri Lanka.\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>But Sri Lanka, unlike France USA and the other Europeans feel sad for the\u00a0 French Families which \u00a0lost their near and dear ones through this detestable inhuman terrorism,\u00a0 as the people of Sri Lanka knows well, having suffered themselves through terrorism ,\u00a0 the suffering of the French people in the face of Islamist terrorism.<\/p>\n<p>But neither France, USA and other Europeans who now go through the Same terrorism that Sri Lanka went through for years, \u00a0still defend the terrorists in Sri Lanka passing resolutions in the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva accusing the Sri Lanka Armed Forces for war crimes in eliminating terrorism, \u00a0and forcing Sri Lanka to give political concessions to Tamils in Sri Lanka who still sympathises with the terrorists who came from their community and accuse the Sinhala Armed Forces\u00a0 that saved them _the Tamils and Muslims from that long and ruthless terrorism in Sri Lanka.<\/p>\n<p>French people and the French Government\u00a0 which morn the deaths of their police officers and innocent civilians\u00a0\u00a0 through Islamist\u00a0 terrorism,\u00a0 and live with the fear of further terrorist attacks, have still not learnt their lessons to understand that terrorists anywhere out side France\u00a0 are also terrorists,\u00a0 even if those terrorists elsewhere are no threat to them. The French Government \u00a0gives priority to \u00a0political interest,\u00a0 than sharing \u00a0humanism and sympathy with those people elsewhere in other countries suffering from same type of terrorism with a difference.<\/p>\n<p>France, USA and the rest of the Europeans in their political ambitions try their utmost to keep at bay the development of non-Western countries , and change regimes taking the side of the terrorists in those countries, \u00a0against the elected\u00a0 political leaders who seek to develop their countries to give their people a decent and a respectable standard of living and take them out of poverty in to prosperity.<\/p>\n<p>This is what is happening in Syria today, and what happened in Libya , and Iraq yesterday. In Syria as it was in Libya, the terrorists\u00a0 have taken up arms against the government\u00a0 of the elected President Bashar Al-Assad, but the French Government as well as the rest of the West prefer to call them rebels\u00a0 to serve their political purpose to change the regime in Syria.<\/p>\n<p>French Foreign Minister\u00a0 Jean-Marc Ayrault said yesterday the 25<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0 April, 2017, that he has proof that the Chemicals with which the Syrian\u00a0 people were attacked recently was produced by\u00a0 the Syrian Government of Bashir Al-Assad. This is history repeating itself. The West and USA would do anything to change the regimes in\u00a0 the middle East and this was the same assurance that Jean \u2013Marc Ayrault gives to-day, that\u00a0 the former Prime Minister of UK Tony Blair \u00a0gave as an excuse to attack Iraq.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bashar Al-Assad had not attacked his own people with Chemicals,\u00a0 as much as Sadam Hussain had not stock piled Weapons of Mass Destruction as Tony Blair\u00a0 then assured.\u00a0 It is a ruse using the Syrian terrorists to attack Al-Assad.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>French Government and its allies do not still realise that it is themselves who have created the terrorists who attack them now. It is the terrorists of Iraq and Libya who France and its allies called rebels, \u00a0who are now the Islamist terrorists attacking France, and the rest of the European Countries.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It is only Russia that is realistic and calls the terrorists , terrorists. Russia defends Syria against terrorism, \u00a0while France and its allies attack Syria in defence of terrorism.<\/p>\n<p>France and its allies do not accept the leadership China and Russia. The governments and the people of developing countries accept the leadership of China and Russia. This is the reason for the regime change policy of the West.<\/p>\n<p>In Sri Lanka the French and its allies helped to change the regime of President Mahinda Rajapakse, and installed a government obedient to the West.\u00a0 But that change has brought untold suffering to the people of Sri Lanka.<\/p>\n<p>Sri Lanka which was a fast developing country two and a half years ago is today falling into the abyss of underdevelopment and poverty. And further reconciliation with Tamils will be the end of a united Sri Lanka, and the end of a prestigious religion Buddhism a unique philosophy that would\u00a0 be the saving grace of the World.<\/p>\n<p>But unfortunately France,\u00a0 that I love next to my motherland Sri Lanka, is about to elect a President who has the same mentality of the Previous President- anti Russian and anti Bashir Al-Assad Government in Syria, or an ultra nationalist \u00a0which would be Chaos.<\/p>\n<p>The West is doomed, as there is terrorism on \u00a0one side, antagonism towards \u00a0China and Russia, on the other , and a desire to change regimes of developing countries to maintain a pseudo leadership in the world. The only way to rise above this is to promote dialogue\u00a0 amoung\u00a0 nations and build trust and friendship.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Institution which is able to ensure this desired change is the UNO, which unfortunately does not exist today\u00a0 as it was meant to be.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Charles Perera France which was attacked once again by the terrorists for the forth time this year, now lives\u00a0 in constant fear \u00a0not knowing \u00a0when and where would be the next attack and how many would be the innocent lives that would be \u00a0taken away to satisfy the God of the faith blinded terrorists.\u00a0 [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-65564","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-charles"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lankaweb.com\/news\/items\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/65564","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lankaweb.com\/news\/items\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lankaweb.com\/news\/items\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lankaweb.com\/news\/items\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lankaweb.com\/news\/items\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=65564"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.lankaweb.com\/news\/items\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/65564\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lankaweb.com\/news\/items\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=65564"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lankaweb.com\/news\/items\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=65564"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lankaweb.com\/news\/items\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=65564"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
