\u00a0<\/span>Minister Swaminathan has presented a cabinet memo to pay compensation to LTTE terrorists and the families of the dead terrorists. According to him there are about 12,000 rehabilitated\u00a0LTTE terrorists and about 30,000 from LTTE Mahaveera\u00a0families. In addition to this, there will be many Tamil terrorist sympathisers\u00a0who migrated to foreign countries returning for the sake of\u00a0claiming compensation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

These terrorists fought a 30 year war against a legitimate govt demanding one-third of the country for 11 per cent of the Tamil population. During this period they used suicide bombers to kill leading political figures,\u00a0destroyed public property, bombed sacred Buddhist places of worship, killed Buddhist monks, civilians and members of the armed services. They bombed the Central Bank to destroy the economy. 600 innocent policemen who surrendered were killed mercilessly. Minister Swaminathan is not the least interested in the damage done to \u00a0the country by the worlds number one terrorist group, who claimed to be invincible. Based on the cabinet memo, compensation has to be paid to any members of\u00a0Prabhkaran’s family \u00a0as well. According to his vision, there is no difference between the LTTE terrorists and the members of the armed services who fought them. Surprisingly, UNP MP Mujibur Rahman supports this memo. He seems to have forgotten so quickly how the LTTE terrorists massacred Muslims while praying in Mosques. And how Muslims were given only two hours to leave Jaffna.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This compensation has to come from the taxes paid by\u00a0the people. This includes members of the armed forces and the people who suffered from the atrocities of the LTTE. The irony is that these people are contributing to\u00a0pay compensation to terrorists who tried to wipe them out. This is an insult to the “Rana Viruvos ” who fought the war risking their lives.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Obviously, Minister Swaminathan is acting on the instructions of the LTTE rump and the Tamil diaspora, and presented the cabinet memo to appease them. So far the Yahapalanaya govt seems to be silent on this. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
