in Dire Peril"},"content":{"rendered":"<h2><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><em>IMRC Iriyagolle<\/em><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Ayubowan,<\/p>\n<p>We cannot allow India, any other country or any other force to dictate to us. \u00a0The country must develop a strategy to destroy the enemies within first, \u00a0the corrupt, destructive, selfish and sadistic politicians who have become \u2018pawn brokers\u2019 to remain in power by any means. \u00a0 The nation should consider rejecting demagogues as well.<\/p>\n<p>Our ancient rich Buddhist cultural heritage, an ancient superior civilisation cannot be, should not be destroyed by hostile forces from within or without. \u00a0The Sinhalese have portrayed self destructive \u00a0traits. \u00a0JVP launched an insurgency to kill the Sinhalese to combat this the United National Party(UNP) government unleashed forces to \u2018kill the brutes\u2019 as JR Jayawardena gave the orders to exterminate the JVP, all Sinhalese. \u00a0 The Buddhist Cultural Heritage was ignored.<\/p>\n<p>Torture of the victims became an industry during this period (1987-1990) of UNP initiated savagery, \u00a0Ranil Wickremasinghe one of the main perpetrators of this savagery has been\u00a0rewarded, being appointed as the Prime Minister of this great island. \u00a0 The UNP and Ranil Wickremasinghe has not been held accountable for the atrocities committed. \u00a0 The UNP with the blessings of the Sinhalese majority is\u00a0guilty of treason and continues to commit acts of treason without any hindrance from anybody in the practical sense.<\/p>\n<p>The island is \u2018pawned\u2019, stripped of its Sovereignty, armed forces betrayed and the UNP\u00a0carries on relentlessly to destroy the Sinhalese and the Buddhist Cultural Heritage. \u00a0In the\u00a0past \u00a0there were punishers, snipers, armed forces, law enforcement agencies, and patriots to eliminate the enemy. \u00a0Many politicians perceived to be traitors were assassinated. \u00a0Today traitors thrive as the whole island is in their grip with the support and blessings of all communities.<\/p>\n<p>The nation and \u00a0the island is gifted to traitors, mass murderes, rapists, fraudsters and drug traffickers. \u00a0 The inertia,\u00a0the inaction in the practical sense and the complacency of the Sinhalese is deplorable.<\/p>\n<p>If there were strong, great, honourable, dynamic, visionary Sinhalese statesmen, political leaders as in the past no one, no country or the UN would dare to act against Sri Lanka. \u00a0 Recent history has shown how some Sinhalese jealous and selfish in the different spheres themselves rise up against the good and the great Sinhalese to destroy them. \u00a0 Whether in the political arena. social, religious or educational spheres society should punish and shun the destructors not reward them for there betrayal and treachery. \u00a0Then there would be a\u00a0chance for the survival of the Sinhalese, the sacred Buddhist Cultural Heritage and our sacred island.<\/p>\n<p>Theruwan Saranai<\/p>\n<p>IMRC Iriyagolle<\/p>\n<p><a
