Vijaya,
I think facts are genuine.
Yes, of course. The facts are very genuine.
Previously he wanted to UNPLUG the domestic market from the international market so that we do not have to increase our fuel prices whenever the fuel prices of the world market goes up.
We know that was a 100% and we now buy petrol at the local market at Rs. 10.
In 1989, then leader of the JVP wanted to UNPLUG India. So India and its high Commissioner Dixit immediately went home overnight.
This time he wants to UNPLUG Sri Lanka from the international community, so that they would not dictate us terms.
So, they are all questions of unplugging, unplugging and unplugging.
I am sure that too would be as extremely successful just like UNPLUGGING the international market.
P.S. In fact, I thought Norway went home immediately after the Presidential Election in Nov. 15 last year. I wonder what they were doing for all these days. |

Seems to be good one. Unfortunately I can't understand a single word.
But from the text
JVP believes that LTTE is weakening at this moment therefore government should react with caution to international pressure
LTTE is weakening by IC and not by the GOSL. Atomic powered Paki is hunting down their one time belovered friends Al quida cos of IC pressure. IC has a plan for failed state sory lanka and will be implemented soon. |

Vimukthi, Magha, Vijay,Helaya,
Add me to your list. Weerawansa is absolutely correct in saying go slow on the talks and take all precautions.
As they say Only believe the Unborn LTTE and the Dead LTTE.
Not the living LTTE.
GOSL should not fall into the same trap as before when Lalith A time of withdrawing troops for them to regroup.
I wish Ranil Mahathaya had spoken like this. |

Vimukthi, Magha, Vijay,Helaya,
Vimukthi and Vimukth are two different individuals.
Vimukthi is a Senior Member joined in Nov 2005 with 883 posts. Vimukth has joined in Sep 2005 and has made 46 posts.
Knowing him, I can guarantee not only that Vimukthi will never jump into the racist bandwagon, but also he will consider it a great insult being put into a group of war mongers. |

Mr. Weerawansa.
You courages statements are truly commendable.
But, you have to admit that mishandling aid worker killing investigation and tens of thousands of IDP's and their hardships also came into the picture when IC pressured both sides to stop the violence.

A great message by the compatriot Weerawansa. What he says is absolute truth. There is no way that a democratically elected government should pave into reconciling a terror frenzy outfit with their Norwegians friends.
The country cannot go forward without destroying the terrorism. MR and the government should seriously take Mr Weerawansa's words to recognition before peace talks or any other talks should they materialise. We know the history of the terrorists and how they conveniently evade talks to suit their needs.
Vimukthi, Magha, Vijay, Helaya, Lalith and Dewey I'm with you gents.
My hats off to great words Mr Weerawansa. It is not racism but blatant truth what is happening.

JVP is a force that misguide the innocent young minds by telling lies as truth. However, what he said here is somewhat true.
This tamil issue was aggravated and globalised by the JVP in 1983, if not this issue would have been solved by now through militarily or talks.
These JVP scoundrels are equally dangerous and ruthless. They have no right to speak of terrorism while they are the first group of terrorist in the recent history of our country. |

Donald Cleeval,
These JVP scoundrels are equally dangerous and ruthless. They have no right to speak of terrorism while they are the first group of terrorist in the recent history of our country.
I assume you may be bit sceptical of the political matters in SL and I don't blame you for that. But we have to take things in comparison to many in the past. JVP was terrorising twice in the past 71 and 88 and that was a known factor. We cannot forget it. But we have to appreciate their embracing of democracy through political stream which is commendable. So let's not dwell in the past and continue to bash these fellows who talk real issues pertaining to the country's territorial integrity.
Similarly LTTE can still lay down their arms and embrace the political interest pertaining to tamil folks and why don't they do it? This is why it is difficult to understand after 30 years of fight LTTE have become a scum of the tamil folks in the face of the international community. When people like Mr Anandasangaree was awarded for peace these scum bags are continuing the terror in the pseudo name of the freedom to the tamils.
The difference between the JVP and the LTTE is that JVP realised the public grievance is not causing mayhem but representing people which they do by having 38 MPs in the parliament whereas the LTTE continue the killing spree.

It is useless arguing with JVP sympathizers, because they are never known to entertain any other view than the one which had been inserted to their minds by their political masters.
However, some stupid remarks call for a repetition of explanations.
The fact is JVP did not give up arms on their own and joined the democratic process. It is also a myth to say that they were militarily crushed. They were militarily crushed only in 1971, but that did not prevent a rebirth of militant JVP (which I call JVP-2) in 1980s. That?s is enough proof for the failure to crush a political movement by military measures.
What made JVP-3 to enter into democratic process is the means available for them. It was the proportional representation system that made it possible for JVP to obtain 39 seats in the 2004 parliament. If not for the proportional representation scheme JVP would not have been able to get even a single seat under the previous first past-the -post system. (This was proved in the last local govt. elections. JVP could win only one pradeshiya shabha.)
There is no point requesting LTTE to lay down the arms and enter into a democratic process because for more than two decades, we have so far failed to create the right environment for that. (It was exactly Ranil Wickremasinghe was trying to do, when he was unexpectedly interrupted.) Under the present constitution a Tamil political force can never expect to gain a power like JVP entertain today. This is irrespective of the people?s support they gain. Under the present system, even if a Tamil political party gets 100% of the Tamil votes, it will never enjoys the power JVP enjoys today by gaining only 10% of the Sinhalese votes. So what is essential is to have a power sharing solution so that the Tamils in N&E (either as LTTE or any other force) can enter into the democratic process.
Even after eight months of assuming power the patriotic President has failed to present his power sharing solution to the country. Few well-known racists have been appointed to a committee and nobody knows what those fools do.
Without presenting the present government?s solution to the country there is no point repeatedly requesting LTTE to lay down the arms and enter the democratic process.
What JVP has been doing all these days is preventing all the attempts to open doors for LTTE to convert itself to a democratic force. The irony is, if somebody objected to JVP in that conversion (eg. If UNP pressed for the ban of JVP after 1989) JVP would be still in the jungles with gal katas in their hands.
So if JVP is mature political party, what they should do is to assist the process of converting LTTE into a democratic force, rather than doing everything possible under the sun to prevent it. |
