What happened yesterday in Geneva has been unprecedented in the 2500 years of Sinhalese existence on earth. It can best be described by saying that it was indeed a magnificent victory by the 60 odd million Tamils in the world hell bent to wipe out a little more than 10 million Sinhalese from the face of earth. The mere fact that the former is well being supported by the mightiest states in the world underscores that the latter's demise is well on course.
Though there have been many an invasions by Tamils from India throughout the Sinhalese's history in this land, the latter was able to withstand them only compromising some parts of the North East of Sri Lanka which was their original land of habitation with a flourishing civilization.
One of the certain outcomes of what happened yesterday in Geneva would be a type of intervention similar to Libya which would be primarily aimed at eliminating Sri Lanka's current ruling regime which is the architect of elimination of the LTTE. This will follow a puppet regime set up by the foes of Sinhalese making it easy the re-emergence of the LTTE which will decide the fate of Sinhalese.
The only possible way that the Sinhalese could withstand their demise would be to fight until their last drop of blood as they did many a time in the past however mightier their foe would be. But this time around it would be a near impossible task unless the beleaguered Sinhalese would get concerted support from another mighty state. Sinhalese survival will wholly be dependent on how successful they would be in getting that support!

Is the Tamils’ Ass Licking quality of the Whites being again used by the West to secure its losing supremacy?
I pointed out in my previous post too that this quality of the Tamils is again being used by the US and the West to the hilt. This time around it is being used to destabilize India and in turn to destabilize the whole Asia which is fast becoming challenging force to the dwindling White supremacy. As part of this strategy two pronged approach is being used. While Sri Lanka is being used to destabilize India through the Eelam project the Tamil Nadu is directly being influenced to destabilize India. The case in point is Hilary Clinton's visit to the State of Tamil Nadu some time ago and meeting its Chief Minister Jayalalitha Jayaram, an ardent supporter of the Eelam project. This was the first time a very powerful personality of a world power visited a State of India and met its Chief Minister. This is a clear indication of the nexus between the Tamils and the US.
How the West very skillfully uses Jayalalitha in its newest campaign to punish SL at the UNHRC in order archive its ulterior motives is yet another case in point which is very cleverly depicted in the above cartoon appeared in today's The Island paper.

Is the US again using SL to break India into pieces?
In a thought provoking article in The Island paper on March 01st Chandrasoma critically analysis the US's current foreign policy which is hell bent to secure its super power status in the back drop of Asia's impressive rise challenging its long -held envious status . He analysis in the article how Sri Lanka has become a pawn of this policy which the US tries to achieve by hook or by crook, following some Machiavellian hypothesis.
As said in the binging one of the significant worrying factors for the US and the West has been the rising status of Asia which is hugely being boosted by China's phenomenal rise. The ever depleting non-renewable sources of energy of which vast reserves still found in the Arab countries is the other factor that the US worries the most. The US's fears are further exacerbated by a highly unlikely eventuality of a block between China and India. India's impressive rise as one of the Asia's powers, through it has a limited clout in the world arena, is also a factor that shapes the US's policy in Asia. So the USA's foreign policy is geared to unleash an all-out destabilizing campaign in Asia.
India's fragile political system, unlike China, makes it easier to launch relatively easier destabissing campaign. So Sri Lanka has become a perfect launching pad for the purpose. So the Eelam project from Sri Lanka makes it perfect Trojon Horse to destabilize India. As the writer rightly points out Sri Lanka is also located in strategic sea route where a lot Afro- Chinese trade takes place.
The US's plans are quite clear with the rigorous campaign that It has unleashed in UNHRC in Geneva against Sri Lanka which is now underway. Back in Sri Lanka one can clearly see the anti Sri Lankan camp which was quite active during the LTTE's heydays is back with their business. Backed by Eelamists's and the West's money and the moral support this campaign has taken a renewed vigor. There are all indications that the West's money has again started pumping into NGOs like CPA to restart the campaign. This has given a new lease of life to anti- Sri Lankan and pro-Eelam web sites like Groundviews run by Sanjana Hattotuwa working in CPA.
As Chandrasoma concludes "The sad truth is that - given these political realities - we can expect the USA and its Western friends - notably the UK, the 'White Commonwealth and the leading European powers - to step up its 'cold war' against Sri Lanka. They will do this because of their own difficulties in staying afloat in a world that is no longer the play-ground of the Anglo-Saxon Imperialists. Our planetary world is overcrowded and fast running out of non-renewable resources. This ecological threat makes conventional global politics a foolish game - this fact has not, however, sufficed to erase the combative engrams inherited from long ages of white dominance in our world. That our future as Sri Lankans is not safe and assured is a truth that we must live with".

JVP got a contract from the Iraqi embassy to throw shit at the Iranian mission back in 1982!
Today's The Island editorial says an interesting story. It says that JVP got a contract from the Iraqi embassy to throw shit at the Iranian mission back in 1982! So the money they earned for doing the job has been spent to buy two cars and a pick-up truck for Rohana Wijewira and Shantha Bandara. It is interesting isn't it? I had never heard about this bizarre story.
So the JVP could have thrown shit at Norwegians when the latter was trying to divide Sri Lanka. But who could have given them the contract?
Below is the particular paragraph from the editorial
' Worse, the knights in shining armour on a mission to rid the country of bribery and corruption have track records that stink to high heaven. One cannot but agree with the JVP that Minister Gamage should be reported to the CIABOC, though one may not be so naïve as to expect anything to come of a probe to be conducted, if at all. But, the JVP, too, has sullied its hands with a dirty contract to make a fast buck unconscionably. In 1982, it took money from the Iraqi embassy in Colombo to carry out a faeces attack on the Iranian mission. With funds so raised, the JVP bought two cars––one for its founder leader Rohana Wijeweera––and a pick-up truck for JVP stalwart, Shantha Bandara!'

Yet another example of increasing Muslim fundamentalism in Sri Lanka !
This purposeful omission of Sinhala language and giving prominence to Arabic langue which is almost non-useable language in Sri Lanka for day today communication by its citizens is a clear indication of Muslim fundamentalism in Sri Lanka. This is also a clear indication how the wealthy sections of the Muslim community, primarily the business community sow the seed of communalism among its members. This is just one example of emerging Muslim fundamentalism in Sri Lanka which has spread in many forms as I elaborated in my previous posts.

Sarath Fonseka Vs Karuna !
One of the often made allegations against the present government of its critics is that how the former army commander Sarath Foneska who is considered to be a true war hero is treated with many years of prison terms while at the same time how Karuna or Vinyagamoorty Muralitharan, the former Eastern Commander of LTTE who is accused of carrying out several civilian massacres and fought against the armed forces for many years is treated with a deputy minister position of the present government being offered with all the privileges. A fair and neutral assessment is needed to judge how valid this allegation against the government is. In order to do a balanced assessment we shouldn't confine not only to the contribution made by the each individual for the final war against terrorism but also to the contribution they made after the war for the wellbeing of the country.
It is an undisputable fact the defection of Karuana who was an asset to Prabhakran to fight against Sri Lanka's armed forces was a monumental loss to LTTE's war machine in terms of losing a successful leader, falling into the hands of the enemy his knowledge about in and out about the organization and the area he was controlling and eventually losing sizable number of combatants along with a large stock of arms. The contribution made by Karuna, a diehard and deadly leader of the most ruthless terrorist organization by renouncing the violence and joining the democratic process of the country which was rejected by his former organization as Tamil people's oppressor is also monumental. Even a diehard LTTE supporter must have taken aback by his move thinking how outside world would think about the futility and the relevancy of the fight that they were waging at an enormous cost to their people. This must have certainly prompted to think many an outside people who matter to Sri Lankan affaires that the desire that some of the LTTE fighters and Tamil people were yearning for to live under a democratic system of governance. So the Karuna's defection and then his joining to Sri Lanka's democratic process have indeed been a turning point in Sri Lanka's successful war against terrorism. Karuna is indeed responsible for many crimes. So are the many Ex-LTTE combatants released and being rehabilitated. Who knows whether some of those former LTTE carders will become ministers of the country in the future?
Former army commander Sartha Fonseka indeed took the reins of the army at a very critical juncture when Sri Lankan armed forces finally decided to push the military option to win the peace when LTTE rejected other 'peaceful solutions'. While his contribution as the army commander in the successful war against terrorism can never be underestimated the contributions made by many other individuals may perhaps many times bigger than what Fonseka did. First and foremost, it is the correct political leadership given by the president Rajapaksha that made the war possible. His all predecessors succumbed to the so called international pressure and had almost given half of the country to a terrorist organization in a platter for more than two decades. The wars his predecessors waged were half –hearted that ultimately resulted in losing many lives and property. It was his rock solid political leadership and the determination that gave demoralized armed forces a fresh breathing air which resulted in swelling in the numbers for recruitment to form almost 08 divisions in the army in less than one year time. The strategic leadership and guidance given by the Defense Secretary while being the connecting chord between the armed forces and the president have indeed been legendry. Army would have never even imagined in winning a war had the contribution from the Navy, Air Force and the Police not been at the country's disposal. It was the Navy with extremely limited resources that caused a massive hemorrhage to the LTTE: destroying the LTTE's massive well-oiled arms supply machine. It was indeed one of the turning points of the war against terrorism. No need of elaborating the mammoth and legendry role played by the air force with again extremely less resources. And again the both forces were headed by battle hardened highly successful officers. So it was a galaxy of factors that led to the war victory. Sarath Fonseka was not alone 'The Factor' as many claim for the victory. So the conditions were such that absence of Sarath Fonseka as the army commander would have not made a big difference.
Now it is pertinent to assess the role played by SF after the war with regard to country's wellbeing. How have some of his actions contributed to the country's future? SF's 'White Flag' charge was indeed life giving oxygen to the LTTE rump which had been literally down with the LTTE's decimation. The international witch hunt for alleged 'war crimes' sat in motion with this false 'White Flag' charge. The massive propaganda machine of the LTTE with its huge resources at its disposal was fully activated to rally against Sri Lanka in several fronts: from buying the anti-Sri Lankan politicians from the West and the USA to produce fabricated films by media organizations who were waiting to settle some scores with the Sri Lankan government. All sundry of anti Sri Lankan characters led by INGO bosses whose terms in the country were not extended due to their shady deals with the LTTE have been forefront in their campaign against Sri Lanka. The 'White Flag' charge was the stepping stone for the 'Darusman Report'. The massive effort being made to haul up Sri Lankan leaders and the armed forces members in the international war crime tribunals is at the full swing. The negative image that Sri Lankan has to bear due to SF's antics is massive and will continue to go on for many years to come.
So the damage caused by the SF to his motherland after the war has undone in many folds what he has done for contributing to winning the war. Many machinations by anti-Sri Lankan forces are well underway to make use SF to destabilize the country. Karuna who joined the democratic process of the country continue to help his community in particular and the country in general for their wellbeing.

Are Indian and Chinese militaries in a tussle to become closer to Sri Lankan military?
Military ties between China and Sri Lanka were largely confined to the supply of arms, naval crafts and aircrafts by the former during the last four to five decades. The training stints given to Sri Lankan military personnel in the Chinese military academies were not as large as Indian and Pakistani military academies have been offering to SL. However, with the beginning of president Rajapaksha's tenure there has been a marked increase of training stints offered to SL armed forces personnel in the Chinese military academies. So PLA's General's visit obviously indicates that there will be a further increased opportunities to SL military personnel to train in PLA's academies.
Though Military ties between India and Sri Lanka has been historically close the disastrous policies adopted by the Indian governments towards Sri Lanka have made Indian military less friendly to Sri Lankans. They include Indian military's involvement in training LTTE carders in India, aggression by Indian air force and navy violating Sri Lanka's air space and its seas respectively to force JR Jayawardana government to stop successful Vadamarachchi military campaign which saved Prabhakaran to wage the terrorism for further 20 years, sending Indian army (IPKF) to force upon us the so called 'Political Solution' and finally refusal to sell necessary weaponry to the marooned 40,000 troops in the besieged Jaffana peninsula and instead willing to provide vessels to a near impossible evacuation mission.
On the other hand Chinese government including PLA has been one of the few countries which were steadfastly behind Sri Lanka's successful military campaign against terrorism. Apart from being the biggest arms supplier to Sri Lanka China had been regularly supplying arms without any hindrance though many countries including India refused to do so.
It seems Sri Lankan armed forces and PLA have opened a new chapter in their relationship with the two countries' military ties further strengthened. However, we are yet to see the reaction by the Indian government to this strengthened military ties between China and SL. If India indeed does react it may be overt or covert or may be a combination of both. India's reaction to perceived SL's closeness to the US ie training LTTE cadres in India was of course covert though it became overt later.
