3 forces,
Do you think you are an educated person?If, so what is your qulification?You sound to me like an idiot,trying to twist history and manipulate to your advantage-a stupid thing to do.If you believe in what you say,then even Lord Buddha cannot save your country from disaster and destruction.
Good luck to you and to your failed,rouge and pariah state of banana republic of sori lanka!
Eelan.

Colombo Clans, Goon Squads and the Church
Sarath Bulathsinghala
Today Sri Lanka is again at the cross roads. It is time to take a look back into happenings of the last two decades. The puppet masters, the Colombo Clans ( Wijewardhanas and Bandaranaikes), and the Christian Church, who nurtured Tamil racism are out in the open in a last ditch attempt to save and give respectability to the genocidal LTTE and their erstwhile leader ? Prabhakaran ? the man who styles himself as the sole representative of the Tamils in Sri Lanka. In the aftermath of the September 11th attack, no effort is to be spared to make him another Yasser Arafat and to save him from facing charges at the Hague for crimes against humanity, genocide and ethnic cleansing. If the world gives into this masquerade it will shame all civilized society.
It is common knowledge that it was UNP goondas who attacked and killed Tamils in Colombo during the July ?83 riots. It is also common knowledge that it was the then President J R Jayawardene who allowed the riots to continue unabated for a full day before a curfew was called to stop the rioting. On this day J R Jayawardene was under severe pressure from the army after the killing of the 13 soldiers in Jaffna , to take effective action against the LTTE terrorists in the North. His solution was to use his Goon Squads to attack and kill the Tamil residents in Colombo and other major cities and thereby avert the wrath of the army.
It is also common knowledge that after his victory at the General Elections in 1977, Jayewardene wanted to remain in power for an extended period, if necessary by terrorizing the general electorate. For this purpose every minister in his administration was encouraged to form and develop their Goon Squads with the idea of intimidating the electorate prior to any subsequent election in Sri Lanka. In this fashion R Premadasa his Prime Minister, Gamini Dissanayake, Lalith Athulathmudali, Ranil Wickramasinghe the present Prime Minister, Ananda Tissa de Alwis,Cyril Matthew, M H Mohammed and others went on to form their own Goon Squads. These Goon Squads were used most effectively in subsequent elections to intimidate, terrorize, maim or kill political opponents. Viz; the 1980 District Development Council Elections, and the 1982 infamous ? the Pot and the Lamp Referendum. How the democracy in Sri Lanka deteriorated during this period is also common knowledge and is a subject that is well researched and documented. These Goon Squads were equipped with electoral lists and they knew in advance where their political opponents lived.
It is now common knowledge that the mini riot that originated at the Borella Kanatta on the day of the funeral of the 13 soldiers ended at Narahenpita around mid night the same day. However the systematic torching of Tamil trading establishments and residences commenced the following morning at Borella junction. The riots and the burning continued throughout the day through Punchi Borella, Maradana, Pettah and finally on to Fort, and unabated till they reached the Ambal Café in the heart of Fort at 4:00 PM ? just a few meters away from where the now infamous President of Sri Lanka had his office. It took Jayewardene 10 hrs to impose a curfew and get his Goons off the streets. Goon Squads armed with electoral lists went from house to house, this time looking for Tamil residents. Goon Squads saved the day for Jayewardene by taking the army who was breathing fire on his scrawny neck.
Once the curfew was in place, in four consecutive days, four very significant statements were made over the Television ? Rupavahini Channel. While a shocked populace waited for the Executive President to address the nation, the UNP government and the Church plotted behind the scenes to place the blame entirely on the shoulders of Sinhalese Buddhists. This is how it was done.
Most Ven Madihe Pannaseeha Maha Nayake Thero was asked to address the Nation first. Naturally the Mahanayake Thero requested the Nation to have patience and be calm. The nation was angry but it was in no mood to go on a killing rampage. By getting him to address the nation J R Jayewardene got the world to believe that the Mahanayake Thero was really addressing the Sinhalese Buddhists and that they were responsible for the pogrom.
The second was made by J R Jayewardene (the man with the professional mourners face)himself, , as the President of Sri Lanka. He justified the riots as the justifiable anger of the Sinhalese for the killing of the 13 soldiers in Jaffna. Here he clearly laid the blame for the pogrom on the Sinhalese. It must also be noted that UNP Goon Squads and every shade of hooligan, Sinhalese, Tamil, Muslim and other took part in the universal phenomenon of looting that followed throughout the island. In many instances old scores were settled, regardless of ethnicity, taking advantage of the deplorable and unfortunate situation.
The third statement was made by R Premadasa the Prime Minister a servant of the Wijewardhana clan. He said that behind the riots was a coup organized by a Naxalite Terror Group. This was a diversionary attempt to put the blame on the pseudo socialist group led by Vijaya Kumaranatunge at that time.
The fourth and final statement was made by Ananda Tissa de Alwis the then Minister of Communications and Constitutional Affairs. He said the next stage of the coup would be for Sinhalese Buddhists to attack Sinhalese Christians. His was the voice of the Christian Church who would finally go to convince the world that Sinhalese Buddhists were responsible for the carnage. With this they killed two birds; firstly the blame for the pogrom was laid firmly and squarely on Sinhalese Buddhists and secondly they set up the Christians against the Buddhists.
(If one has access to Rupavahini Archives the veracity of these 4 statements can be verified.)
The essence of the above four statements show the way J R Jayewardene and his administration manipulated the media to put the blame, for the riots by his Goon Squads, on Sinhalese Buddhists. It is doubtful even today if the Mahanayake Thero knows how he was manipulated to lay the blame on the Sinhalese Buddhists. The subsequent propaganda by the State media and the Christian Church convinced the world that it was the Sinhalese and especially the Sinhalese Buddhist who were responsible for the July ?83 Riots.
As Sinhalese and mainly as Sinhalese Buddhists, we should not harbor any guilt complex about the happenings of July ?83 or those Racial riots of 1958, and thereafter. These were carried out by thugs affiliated to the two main political parties the UNP and the SLFP. To the Western Christian World, this was just the opportunity to denigrate the Buddhists in Sri Lanka. Since July ?83 dozens of provocative actions have been carried out in Sri Lanka. Even though hundreds of innocent Sri Lankan civilians have been bombed, maimed, killed, driven away from their lands, their places of worship desecrated and destroyed, their leaders assassinated the nation has just looked on with hope that ultimately justice would prevail. They have waited with timeless patience for their elected leaders to take appropriate action to curb terrorism, eventually eliminate racism from Sri Lanka and put an end to the meddling by externally funded church affiliated NGOs, inimical to the culture and life in Sri Lanka. This is yet to happen.
The Terrorist war that ensued has consumed much of Sri Lanka and her resources. Tamils in droves left the island crying genocide, many seeking greener pastures. Yet for all there are more Tamils now living in the South than in the North of Sri Lanka. The Western World and the Christian Church accepted them with open arms. Various Terrorist groups were funded, nurtured, and covertly trained initially by India and then later by others. Hundreds of Church funded NGO?s descended on Sri Lanka in various guises, but intent on division of the country and the unethical conversion of Sri Lanka to Christianity. On Sri Lankan soil they were ably assisted by the Church affiliated Wijewardhana clan and the Bandaranaike clan. These two clans outwardly masquerade as Buddhists, but their loyalties lie with the Christian Church.
At the moment the subjugation of Sinhalese Buddhists is going on various fronts. Unethical conversion of Buddhists is going a pace unabated. The land of the Sinhalese is up for grabs. Sinhalese Buddhists have neither voice left nor any representation in the proceedings in the so called ?Peace Process? in Sri Lanka. A Lutheran Christian nation, and one time Nazis, who practiced open racial discrimination against their own indigenous people ? the Inuit or Lapps, who aided and abetted with the LTTE are now in the garb of the mediators. (We should have been better off getting the TULF to mediate than these unknown foreigners with agendas of their own for South Asia.) The Buddhists are left largely friendless in the world due to years of diplomatic mishandling. The media has been in the hands of the Church affiliated Wijewardhana clan for decades. The audio- visual media are on a frontal attack on Sinhalese Culture. What is seen, heard and covertly imposed on the minds are all foreign values and ethos. While the Puppet Masters are now on open stage for everybody to see, a helpless nation is waiting its dismemberment.
Today with one time leader of one of the Goon Squads? Ranil Wickramasinghe of Batalanda fame as the Prime Minister of Sri Lanka, Tyronne Fernando as the Foreign Minister, John Amaratunge as the Minister of the Interior and Home Affairs, Jayalath Jayewardhana the LTTE spy as the Minister of Rehabilitation and Refugees, Joseph Michael Perera as the Speaker of the House, the Christian Church is well and truly enthroned in Sri Lanka. The LTTE never had it any better. |

3Forces , you are proved idiot.
look what they have done to Temple of tooth, central bank,oil refineries, I can go on and on.
before you go on read the statistics, there are nearly 100,000 tamils are killed by sinhalese thugs. and only 2000 sinhalese are reportedly killed by tamils.
Billions of dollars worths of properties are damaged by sinhala aramy and
take a bus and travel to all tamils land and kingdom and see it yourself.
Look what your people have done.
then Fishing ban so tamils arent allow to fish
then High security zones so tamils will have no home and tamils farmers out of work.
then illegal settlements in tamils land bringing all sinhala thugs to tamis land and they were commiting all sort of crimes and all been backed by sinhala police and army. then tamils started to move out of their lands.
unempoyment and pushed out of homes tamils are forced to leave their country. mostly all crossed the indian ocean in small fiberglss boats risking lives and moved around the world.
today estimated 1,000,000 tamils ( one third of tamils) are pushed out of the country.
histry continued
A9 is closed by sinhala thugs ,there are 600,000 tamils have no food and no jobs and no money. people will be looking to move out of the country because of that. is is all part of ethnic clensing. then they will place a budha statue and monks will be moving there then the settlers.
some idiots were saying look there is no sinhalese living in jaffna and look how many tamils living in colombo. colombo is a capital in capital of any countryies all sort of people will live , come and goes.
how many tamils living in deep south sinhalese lands? let me say ok 50 tamils living in a sinhala village.
why no sinhalese living in jaffna?
in jaffna unemployment is over 40% now(today) stands at 75% in that sort of situation where would sinhalese find jobs? not only that would you go and live in iraq now? you won't because there is bombing going on all the time.
same thing happen in jaffna sinhala thugs have been bombing and killing by land ,sea ,air. there were thousands of sinhalese used to live in jaffna.
they all generally felt guilty about those bombing by sinhalese and left.
since the CFA signed i have travelled to srilanka every year. only this year i did not see many sinhala traders in jaffna. previous years i saw many sinhala traders selling all sort of things in jaffna , if peace continued they may have settled there.
when eelam is declared sinhalese are welcome to stay in tamils land . tamils are not aginst sinhalese living in tamil communities what they are against is this illegal settlements.
Sinhalese are generally less intelegent that is why Tamils are given all higher post. and sinhalese are generally undesiplined and uncontrolable and indian tea estate workers who have alredy worked in teaestates in india were brought in. that is how some indian tamils came into srilanka.
there are still visible evidence that sinhalese are uncontrolable. see sinhala army attrocities
then you read sinhala fathers rapping their childrens and Budist monk killing fellow monks
let me comt to your point why english gave the power to sinhalese?
it is because they were leaving and dont care what happens after that,
plus they felt as a majority sinhalese should rule themselves. but they knew tamils are in top post and they are inteligent they can lookafter themselves.
and what they dont realise was that sinhalese are less intelegents with their short sighted view they adopted all hardline policies (sinhala only lanquage act made many tamils unemployed) and there are many other hardline policies that followed brought to todays position.
today we all tamils back Tigers and will continue to back tigers until the tamils asparations are met.

Dear everyone,
This video shows one-side of the coin which is the LTTE side of the tamil not the usual tamil side of the story. Yet another LTTE propaganda video for the small school kids who learn how to get brain washed by worshipping the murderer Velu and his henchmen for a possible another 20 years.
I feel sorry for the decent innocent tamils who cannot be made to think other than the LTTE frame work.
Mr Brown,
Shall we have another side of the coin video which shows how LTTE murdered innocent tamils who were not pro-LTTE and innocent Sinhalese who were just there in NE and the innocent victims of all those suicide blasts i.e. Dehiwala, Maradana, Pettah, Kebethigollawa, Aranthalawa etc. ?
It would make the viewer little bit moderate than being washed with LTTE media propaganda.

Excellent Video.
Nice to see the Sinhala Uprising against the colloborators of the colonials. The latter part was a bit boring though. People crying as if though they acting the 'Hanuma wannama' is a complete turn-off, especially on a Friday night. |

Eagle eye , best solution is split the country Tamil EElem, Lanka.
then both side can live peacefully.
there are growing number of tamils are getting richer by day in western countries their investments in Tamil eelam will creat large employment
sinhala womens dont have to travel to middle east to find jobs and at least the living soldiers can live for the life in full.
if governemnt pushing for war , it is heading for disaster.
we must ask do we want to kill 100,000 more?
do we want to bomb and distroy billions of dollars worth building?
answer mahinda got to think.
if he hoping to weaken LTTE by using karuna and anandasangaree he had not learned the leason and a new leson will be tought.
people of both side are fed up with this fighting new fight going to bring more disaster.
but LTTE rightly said if war breaks out this time it will be felt all around srilanka. all these years only north east was effected. LTTE will be bring srilanka economy to its knees . if mahinda pushed LTTE.
we tamils will support LTTE whatever their decision. |

Don't you worry, Sea Street businesses can fund the rebuilding process. Not to mention the yet untapped Wellawatta reserves. |

JRJ,
pls dont feel bad for the tamils, first learn why the tamils are in this state and if you want to feel sorry be GENUINE. i have seen many like this feeling sorry. I may not be decent and i may not be innocent but tamils LEFT the island seeking PROTECTION and nothing else. please take 60 mins of your time and watch the LINKs i posted. I will go back to pg 1 and highlight it.
Let me also point out that this Forum is MOSTLy frequented by sinhalese and Tamils (yeah throw in afew from the IC!). I dont think Tamils need a video like this to know the background and after reading comments from the sinhalese it might be really worthwhile to take a peek. Lack of understanding and the mahavamsa mindset (see below) is probably why the island is bleeding today.
Magha,
a few points. I see others have said a lot of what i had to say. I also note the post on standardzation from you and welcome it.
I Purposely left my education background or the lack of it! out since it has NO BEARING on this FORUM and the TOPICs at hand. it is an asian mentality that folks witha few alphabets behind their name KNOW it all and the others DONT count
.A good example is VP who doesnt have the alphabets that are much need to some but has taken a paramount role in the future of the island. He is also a person who will decide the fate of the island good or bad you decide. if there is substance IMHO i will reply irrespective of whether one is a janitor or a Doctor. compared to VINI i prefer to reply to you because you do acknoledge stuff but sometimes it very hard for you to give in.
I quote below a post (partial) by Ariyalai_sb.
To interpret the Mahavamsa to form the following believes are the causes of the fragmentations of social fabric of Sri Lanka today:
1. Sinhala Buddhists are descendents of Aryan race
2. Lord Buddha entrusted Sri Lanka with Sinhala Buddhists to govern and safeguard it as a Buddhist nation.
3. Only Sinhala Buddhists are permitted to govern Sri Lanka.
4. The Sinhala Buddhists are the owners of Sri Lanka, but the others are allowed to live accepting Sinhala Buddhist hegemony.
http://www.lankanewspapers.com/news/2006/1/5288_10.html?CH11137770848437EN1
I am always up for a good debate. As you may recall you were the first person i responded way back last december and true to my word then i have always responded to you.
Let me bring another issue to light.
SJVC tried to bring some closure to the tamil issues by signing the DC and then the BC pacts but to no avail. As a last ditch effort when he realised that his ways were not working the Vadukkodai resolution of 1976 was put forward. I dont know wherher SJV even thought whether the struggle will grow like this but the YOUNG tamil youths of the 70s grabbed it and marched ahead. In 1977 TULF ran on a ticket of self determination and was the OPPOSITION to the UNP in parliament. This is what the TAMIL people wanted.
The LTTE is merely following what the resolution and the 1977 TULF MANDATE from the people. yes its has committed atrocities no doubt but sometimes one needs to see how the north lives and with media blackouts the war has to be brought to the south and show the people. until the riots I never knew how the folks in jaffna lived. It was an eye opener for me. |
