It does not mean anything. Lt. General Shavendra Silva had already\nmade a statement that he has no intention of visiting the USA. Only stooges,\npatsies and seagulls will bow down and visit the USA and salute to take up USA\norders. E.g. Ranil, and UNP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>General\nShavendra Silva did not walk into another republic and fight a war killing\npeople and soldiers. Indian forces came into SL raped girls, took goats, lambs\nand killed civilians, etc. However, Shavendra Silva commanded his forces to\npreserve the sovereignty of SriLanka, and eliminate terrorism from the\nSriLankan soil. The USA did not declare Rajiv Gandhi as a War criminal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>People like V.\nRudrakumaran may propagate some different stories. The truth is Shavendra Silva\ndid not kill civilians but took up orders and self-motivated the order into\naction to save the country from Terrorists taking over a republic. He put his\nlife in front of the suicide cadre of the LTTE terrorists. <em>Ref: <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbs.org\/frontlineworld\/stories\/srilanka\/feature.html\"><em>https:\/\/www.pbs.org\/frontlineworld\/stories\/srilanka\/feature.html<\/em><\/a><em>,(ii)\n<\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/templates\/story\/story.php?storyId=104391493\"><em>https:\/\/www.npr.org\/templates\/story\/story.php?storyId=104391493<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recently the\nmedia speculated that Mike Pompeo, Secretary of State, USA enforced order on maybe\ninstruction from the President of the USA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aljazeera.com\/ajimpact\/bans-sri-lanka-army-chief-entry-war-crimes-200214204836674.html\"><em>https:\/\/www.aljazeera.com\/ajimpact\/bans-sri-lanka-army-chief-entry-war-crimes-200214204836674.html<\/em><\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2020\/02\/15\/world\/asia\/sri-lanka-us-sanctions.html\"><em>https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2020\/02\/15\/world\/asia\/sri-lanka-us-sanctions.html<\/em><\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/economictimes.indiatimes.com\/news\/defence\/us-bans-visits-by-sri-lanka-army-chief-over-war-crimes\/articleshow\/74141630.cms\"><em>https:\/\/economictimes.indiatimes.com\/news\/defence\/us-bans-visits-by-sri-lanka-army-chief-over-war-crimes\/articleshow\/74141630.cms<\/em><\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>It is assumed\nhere that the USA government has taken a partisan, biased focus, i.e. against\nthe current SriLankan administration. Let us take the Iraq war as an example.\nRef <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Iraq_War\"><em>https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Iraq_War<\/em><\/a><em>.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bush walked into\nIraq on make-believe that Iraq was developing WMD. Finally, the world proved\nthat there were no WMDs in Iraq. Did Bush resign? Were the commanders who led\nthe US forces into Iraq punished for War crimes by the US Govt or the UK or the\nUN?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>LTTE had\ndeveloped Small scale submarines, aircraft, small custom made tanks, and\nprocured sophisticated weapons for their artillery units. LTTE was not a democratically\nelected government of a country. They were eating food made from SriLankan raw\nmaterials, used SL medical equipment, medicines, used education systems, and the\nforeign currency was flowing from the production in the South. Basically, a\ngovernment of the UNP was promoting LTTE to fight against them. It&#8217;s all\npolitics, to keep them in power. UNP was not at all interested in maintaining\nthe sovereignty of SL. I.e not patriotic. One must study SriLankan history\nsince 1948 to understand the politics of the interior.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The writer has\nan important item to be propagated to the people. A girl around 32 years of\nage, sent an email impersonating the Director-General of the CIA, who was then\nMr. Mike Pompeo (MP) The writer sent all supporting documents and evidence to\nthe DG of the CIA on the 3<sup>rd<\/sup> of December 2017. No acknowledgment and\nno action was taken. Mike Pompeo moved as the Secretary of State in a few\nweeks. The correct mission here should have been is that the DG should have\nordered action by his staff, which perhaps may not have happened. No one\nexpects MP to go an arrest the girl. The impersonation of the CIA-DG is a\ncriminal offense punishable by a one-year jail sentence. The girl continued to harass\nand make deformation of the character of my family.

ALL evidence\nwas submitted about the harassment and the impersonation. RCMP took action and\nshe is now under guard in a psychiatric base hospital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We can see the\ndifference in the political culture of the two countries. I.e the USA and Canada.\nCanada is a country that has a vision in the Rule of Law and strictly enforce\nLaw &amp; Order. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A man, in a\nhigher authoritarian level, MP could not take action for an offense of\nimpersonation of him but talks about a military commander from another republic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How about the American Civil War: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.history.com\/topics\/american-civil-war\/american-civil-war-history\">https:\/\/www.history.com\/topics\/american-civil-war\/american-civil-war-history<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Significant Americans were tortured and killed.\nDid any other country intervene in the affairs of the USA? Was the President or\nthe military leaders tried on war crimes?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was a foolish\nact of declaring and forbidding Shavendra Silva a war criminal and banning.\nShavendra Silva is a war hero to the people of SriLanka. It was a war against\nterrorism, similar to the American war against <strong>al<\/strong>&#8211;<strong>Qaeda<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Observation: The\nUSA is intimidating smaller countries especially SL, to make SL an American\nmilitary base. The USA is having trouble in Diego Garcia as the contract\nexpired in 2016. Now they need a place to dump all their war machinery and\nprepare to conquer the East. SriLanka is in a strategic location to which the\nCIA may have spotted the best place to attack the East and the North-West.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some countries\nto continue to enjoy their polygamy support the USA as slaves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the USA does\nnot review its foreign policy, maybe they may fall out and may see most of the\ncountries become their enemies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Citizens and\nPoliticians of Sri Lanka: Please understand that if the USA steps foot on the\nSriLankan soil then SL will <strong>meltdown<\/strong> similar to <strong>Diego Garcia<\/strong>.\nPlease read the history of Diego Garcia and try to educate yourselves as to\nwhere the <strong>Diego Garcians<\/strong> have been displaced and scattered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>References on\nDiego Garcia: SriLankans, please view and remember.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Diego Garcia - the ugly history!\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/6i0jAbgCYbI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Diego Garcia Facts: Seven Things You Didn&#039;t Know\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/vioZKyWrmr4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Stealing a Nation - How the UK\/US Stole the  Diego Garcia Island\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/PjNfXK6QpqY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Why Diego Garcia Is America&#039;s Most Controversial Military Base\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ayTi_M_a7mM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kanthar Balanathan, Australia Presume the USA recognizes Sovereignty of a Country, Democracy, Freedom of the Press and speech.
