Now, the wolves who striped her, celebrate her ugly nudity in rejoice chanting a different variant of \u2018MANGALA\u2019 SUTHRA,\u2019 the cunning sutra that is used to destroy the autonomy of the people of Sri Lanka. Hello! welcome to the \u2018strip club\u2019 at the Temple Trees!<\/p>\n<p>All three branches of our democracy have failed to standby the sovereignty of the people of Sri Lanka. All three branches, the knights who supposed to safeguard the autonomous-will of the people, have defeated them in cohort. Who is standing victorious now? MONEY!!!! Who has the power to throws such vast quantities of money lavishly to mess with third world sovereignty? External powers! Westminster style Parliamentary Democracy had gone to dogs not just yesterday, but at the very inception of the very idea of it.<\/p>\n<p>It has been proved time and time again that in this era of trans national corporations\u2019 global capitalism, democracy anywhere in the world has become a farce, it has become a mockery. Especially in the third world, there is nothing called sovereignty in the political vocabulary anymore. The only sovereignty that is left in this late stage of globalist capitalism is the <strong>sovereignty of Trans National Corporations\u2019 money power<\/strong>; the sovereignty of destroying nation states in the world through it. In fact, if there is even a recidue of a \u2018thing\u2019 called sovereignty is existing in the third-world, then global capitalism cannot function freely. So, we must understand that the archenemy of globalist capitalism is sovereignty of the nation state in the third-world. It was hidden until now. But now it has been open to everyone to see that Westminster style Parliamentary system is vulnerable for the manipulation of global capitalism. It is vulnerable to money power. Money power is the time-tested tool of global capitalism. It is not the sovereignty of the people&#8217;s will.<\/p>\n<p>It is the sovereignty of \u2018BRIBERY\u2019 stupid!!!!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Lessens we learned from current crisis is astonishing. We learned that Executive presidency is the only way to safeguard the sovereignty of the third world nation state. Westminster style parliamentary democracy is too weak to resist the assaults and ambush of internal and external threats and manipulations. We definitely need a strong executive presidency is the greatest lesson we have learned today.<\/p>\n<p>The old fox JRJ did not intend to create an executive presidency to form a steady government to resist the instability that comes from external powers like today. Because in his time, Trans National Corporations\u2019 Globalization\u2019 as a concept was not fully functioning in global arena with all its global institutions like today. His intention was to create a government, and an executive branch with a steady function with all available tools of resistance to the threat coming from the parliamentary system itself in the Westminster model. (Now we understand the reason why he kept the authority to appoint CJ in his hand.) At that time, he thought the culprit that was threatening the system was the traditional left in the parliament and outside it. But today there is no so-called \u2018traditional left,\u2019 left in the parliament or in the political arena that is functioning outside effectively. The only group that pretend to be left is the JVP, but they also have become specific variety of villains playing for the tune of above said Trans National Corporations\u2019 agenda of destroying the nation state of Sri Lanka.\u00a0Today time has changed. Instead of the traditional left, it is the Trans National Corporations money power and the western manipulations that threaten the autonomy of the people of Sri Lanka. They have stolen our sovereign right to determine our fate from the backdoor even without our notice<\/p>\n<p>The way Anura Kumara Disanayaka speaks regarding current crisis\u00a0today in public\u00a0 is sickening and an utter disgrace to this party that had some reputation for safe guarding the national interests in the past. Now the JVP has lost its head. Today it is running around like a headless donkey leaving feces continually discharging from its bowels allover, after sensing that they have lost the confidence of the people.<\/p>\n<p>Mark these words folks! It is written on the wall! If the things continue in the same way, in ten or twenty years of time, people of Sri Lanka will mourn on streets like Palestinians for losing their country. By then, it will be too late; and there won\u2019t be anyone to accept the blame for all the stupid betrayals they have committed today for selfish reasons to create such situation tomorrow. I wonder if Ranil or Anura Kumara will accept the responsibility for it at that point of history.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Oh&#8217; Sri Lanka!&#8230;O\u2019 Sri Lanka!!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Geethanjana Kudaligamage The drama is over!
