We don`t Need Europe or USA we have SAARC - Goata`s SOS to SAARC
Sunday, 17 June 2007 - 10:18 AM SL Time |  | |
They were having a family row at home - brothers Percy and Goata. Goata was singing: Percy, poosi ballalee, thuttu deka herallee. Percy was mad. `Goata, don`t sing your nursery rhymes to me like in the old days. This is state business. What do you think you are doing? Selling candy to kids like you did for long years in Los Angeles? This is state business: War, politics, money, diplomacy...`
Goata was hurt.
`I came all the way from Los Angeles - City of the Angels, leaving behind all those lovely things to help you out of this stinking mess. And you are insulting me.`
`Look Goata, you have been in the land of the sole superpower. You simply can`t say: I don`t need your cowboys and European crooks - I can fight anyone with SAARC countries. This is like talk at the army mess after seven arracks. We all praise SAARC but what can they do?`
Goata was angry. `So you think you know everything, big brother? I will show you,` and asks the operator to call New Delhi.
`I say, is that Manmohan, this is Goata from Colombo.`
Manmohan: `Hallo, hallo, who is this fellow, Goata from Colombo? I shay I know Colombo is full of goats. But who is this goat?`
Goata: `I know Man Mohans who are under women. I am Goata, defence secretary.`
Manmohan: `Sorry, Sorry. And a thousand apologies. What can I do for you?`
Goata: `I need real help Man, to fight terrorism. This fellow Pirapaharan is playing pucks. Flying toy planes in and around Colombo, not allowing our fellows to watch cricket matches. The country is about to revolt. Some cabinet fellows appear to be doing raw deals.`
Manmohan: `Ah something raw? Don`t you worry I can handle that.`
Goata: `Which way? Our way or Ranil`s?`
Manmohan: `I shay you Sri Lanka fellows always up to monkey tricks like Hanuman with that devil Ravana. Always asking impossible questions. How many times have we said that we stand for an undivided Sri Lanka, its integrity and sovereignty? What more can we do?`
Goata: `This fellow Velupillai is under our beds and over our roofs. You repeating this manthram of unity, integrity etc. won`t do. Do something or we are kaput.`
Manmohan: `I shay we can send you humanitarian assistance. We can send dhal etc. like we did before. No no, not dalls like in Hollywood. Dhal - what you fellows like to eat. But don`t go to Pakistan or China. You won`t get even dhal from us.`
No thanks says Goata and cuts the call off as brother Mahinda smirks. `Get me Musharaff,` says Goata, swearing that he will teach the Indians a lesson. `
Hullo, Hullo Mush are you there? Tell him this is Goata from Colombo. He knows me well. I need MBRFLs, F-16s, shiploads of ammunition and much more.`
ADC: `Sorry Sir. Communications are out.I will leave a message. But he is also under great pressure from these Yanks about some HR violations.What`s that sir. HIRV or something called human rights?`
Goata is furious.Get me Khaleda Zia or Sheik Hassina in Bangladesh orders Goata.
Dhaka operator: `Sorry Sir, Dhaka is under severe floods. The residences of the two Begums are under 10 feet of water. Besides they are under house arrest and all friends and relations arrested for corruption.`
Goata is down but not out. `Get me that fellow Koirala in Kathmandu,` he orders, and Koirala comes on line.
Koirala: `Hallo, hallo, you want aid from Nepal? We are suffering from Himalayan problems. Nepali Maoists are about to storm the palace and the king is about to do the Charge of the Light Brigade. Indian Maoists are rebelling in the south. Can you send us some assistance through your newly acquired airline Hemin Lanka?`
There is still Maumoom Abdul Gayoom in The Maldives says Goata, and talks to Gayoom. `Hallo,Hallo Goata, you want help. Anytime, my big brother. We can send you shiploads of Maldive fish to satisfy all the demands of the Colombo 7 ladies. Ah, if they have enough Maldive fish in their curries they will vote for you. Are elections close at hand? Don`t worry the ships are on the way.`
Goata is furious. Mahendra Percy is amused. `It took a long time to learn the hard way, one long year,` says Mahendra Percy.

Uncle Marky,

gothabaya clearly naming India here vis-a-vis the western countries only because India is against the ltte and the Tamils in general.
India can prolong the war and cause more sufferings to the Tamil people in the north and east just by sitting on the fence doing nothing never mind the arm supplies to the srilankan govt, the excuse is ltte.
to begin with ,, the Indian govt must make contacts with the ltte and clear their minds if there is any doubts and should not allow the Tamil people to suffer any further.
giving arms or tactical support for the srilankan govt will only lead to more sufferings of the tamil people.

Makale Tigeress,
Well, India acts only when their stretegic interests are at stake.
Otherwise, they are just spectators. Even Tamil Nadu leaders except one or two shout to suit their political ineterets.
Tamils should never dependant on India to solve our problems.
