A cautionary note on the present situation re Gen Fonseka. Our task was to allow things to settle down on their own which has worked. However, recent developments led particularly by a section of the diaspora Sinhalese is a cause of concern for DefenceWire.
DefenceWire team's stance up to now has been to avoid commenting on this dispute knowing fully well the capacity of both the present government and SF to come to a compromise on:
1. The direction the Sri Lankan Military will take
2. The direction General Fonseka would have to go
These may not be the most ideal directions for either, yet they are ones that are at best described as realistic and unavoidable.
There are many moves by politically motivated Sri Lankans, including Sinhala groups and also non Sinhala Sri Lankan groups to exploit a disagreement that has unnecessarily spilled over into the public's eye due to politics in the military and a very small section of the military in politics.
These groups, particularly those civilians involved who are not insiders or have little inside information can or will not understand the discipline of a professional soldier to take what he wants and to relinquish duty when required sans insubordination.
A professional soldier is not Dutugemunu. The Sri Lanka Army/Military is a modern Army/Military positioned within a democratic society. The professional soldiers serving in it will know when to let go. By asking them to perform a larger role based solely on selfish motives of individuals in the periphery, they may destroy that soldier and even themselves and their reputation.
The Sri Lankan Military and its leaders are now hailed the world over for their victorious feat. Their role in bringing peace to the country through military means will be remembered for decades to come as the ultimate example of a trained military executing its sacred task flawlessly from start to finish. But remember this, dear readers, military action is a means of achieving the end and the end is always political.
DefenceWire, as an impartial site whose work you have witnessed for over 3 years now wish to appeal to our readers to refrain from joining or supporting either 'camps' and to allow the professional soldier and professional politicians to resolve potentially resolvable issues mentioned above.
Thank you

Very well put.we were getting bored with this.
Welcome back to the blog DW.. :-)
Good post. Yet, Ponnanasekarams and Manjulam Jeevavandams will not stop disinformation campaigns until they get a ride to meet with KP.
How to Sponsor a Ranaviru Child
We have worked with the Sri Lanka Air Force Sevavanitha Unit, Sri Lanka Ranaviru Seva Authrority and the Directorate of Welfare of the Sri Lanka Navy to find sponsorships for over 500 children of Sri Lanka Armed Forces personnel who have either laid down their lives or have suffered physical disability while defending our motherland.
Now you too have the opportunity to show your gratitude to war affected Armed Forces Heroes and the Ranaviru families by sponsoring the education or medical needs of their children under the following programs.
1. Assistance for children needing expensive medical treatment
2. Directorate of Welfare of the Sri Lanka Navy Scholarship Program
3. Ranaviru Seva Authority Scholarship Program.
For further details please visit;

Finally,
DW is back after his long Hibernation. Was it pottu's suggestion that all patriots move to LRRU website that got DW back in to action? Or was it the fun in Thailand as Asthiri suggested. Anyway good to get a new post and actually agree with the ideas DW be neutral.
SamP
[Yet, Ponnanasekarams and Manjulam Jeevavandams will not stop disinformation campaigns until they get a ride to meet with KP]
True!
However until the whoredogs meet that eventuality (if they are not likely to, then we will "compel" them to as we did with KP), we need to combat the para-wesa-sakkili-kallathonis Tamil racists in every forum we come across!
For example, I see some patriot has done some real good work in the current
http://www.expressbuzz.com/
(look under the "fast unto death" and the other news of SL under "world")...
LMSSAO!!! Truly LMSSAO!!!
See Sam, what these whores didn't bargain for was that when the www exploded and soon virtually everyone had access to the media via the www, the playing field was soon leveled.
Yes, just as they had been spewing forth vile, false propaganda hitherto via the printed media, now we "modayas" too had the opportunity to spew forth our own counter-propaganda (i.e. the truths) via the www right from our homes!!!
Yes, this was not the equation during the '80s as most of our Sinhela patriots did not take the trouble to write to the print journals/papersand these whore-thalathel-cunts had a field day, basically monopolizing the audience with their version of event vis-a-vis Sri Lanka.
Well, that is all now changed.
With an approx 10:1 population disadvantage the fuckers are facing, they are fast learning that this www is the bane of the misery!!!
:)) :)) :))
OaO Asithri
"There are many moves by politically motivated Sri Lankans"
I agree DW, its the bloody opposition (UNP, SLMC, Mangala, Mano G, west etc) that is fuelling this.
Though they talk about a 'Common Candidate', they very well know SF will not align with them (considering all the sabotage they were involved during the war).
So if SF is foolish enough to come in to politics, what I see is we will have MR, SF & RW (or someone else) contesting a presidential election. What could happen is MR's vote base will split between MR & SF thus giving a sneaky chance for the traitor RW to win it... at least this must be the thought of the UNP led common alliance and the west...
What I would love to see now is for MR & SF to settle whatever the matter/s behind closed doors!
If not, it will turn out to be a very ugly scene if these 2 titans decide to go at each other in public...
On a last note and not whole heartedly, I think SF is crossing his boundaries as a soldier. I would love to see the Great General retire and live a humble life... he is too good for dirty politics!
this is good... what we discussed just now;
Defence Secretary Gotabhaya Rajapaksa says a group of bankrupt politicians are now working overtime to destabilise the country
I'm wondering, was DW's article also part of this new campaign? :-)
aw, high time we put an end to this MR/SF issue! way to go guys!
Back again...Welcome DW
You're welcome. Thank you for your continued vigilance that keeps you sharp and engaged. Hibernation is after 3yrs of daily updates and admittedly somewhat deserved. Hibernation of this topic was intentional. No competition. The more the proliferation of unbiased news the better.
DW,
Very nice commentry.
thanks DW.
lovely, word to word.
and good timing too. not too early, not too late.
BTW donald perera (former less powerful CDS) has been appointed to a diplomatic position in israel. another good move by GOSL.
F**CK.
Now the story about police beating a man and make him drown is on Aus News. This is not going to do any good to already battered SL reputation. Unfuc***ing believable.
Couldn't they have waited till the idiot come out from the water?
The government needs to do a quick PR campaign stating the officer would be heavily punished. Otherwise people would start thinking we have animals in our country.
Crowd watch as police 'beat man to death'
re: sacrifices made by SLA
this MUST be said for the sake of all those who sacrificed their lives and limbs for sri lanka.
1. 26,000+ have died over the years.
2. 40,000+ disabled.
3. their families and they must be taken care of.
4. GR is doing a MASSIVE amount of work for them, SILENTLY
why can't the others also DO SOMTHING???
we have to look after their families. they have given us a future by sacrificing their future.
unfortunately GR's enthusiasm is not shared by some others.
5. the seva vanitha unit is also doing a great deal of work. but i hear there are name sake women not doing anything. ioma can't do everything!!
6. of course there are reasons. but welfare of soldiers is a BIGGER REASON.
7. govt MUST respond positively to the humane demand by patriots to admit ranaviru family members into universities on a concessionary basis. kids of fallen heroes are generally doing better than average, i hear. god bless them.
i can't imagine growing up without a father. they lost their father bcos he defended more families not just his own family.
8. stop wasting money on crap celebrations and channel to ranaviru families.
The same DefenceWire that gave all credits to 57th for victories of 58th is now trying to undermine Gen. Fonseka.
We know who marched all the way around Sri Lanka and finally killed VP no matter what he says about Jagath Jayasuriya who is just a puppet of MR brother. That's why he even issued a threat to Gen. Fonseka.
Runaway Lt. Col. says Donald Perera was responsible for military victory.
"Whoever held that post had enormous powers and influence over the entire security establishment. In fact, the CDS chaired a powerful committee comprising the three service chiefs and other officials, who handled the country’s defence."
Donald Perera was CDS during final phase of the conflict.
http://www.island.lk/2009/10/31/news16.html
Don’t blame others for discussing this issue, instead blame Gen Fonseka for not denying it so far, and blame Ranil Wickremasinghe for dragging Fonseka’s name to create a rumor as a campaign to plant the seed of this crazy and dangerous idea in Fonseka’s head. What Gen Fonseka doing is “කොලේ ඉරාගන්නවා “
Yes, there is always other side of the story. Your can have your own view from the prospective of an upper middle class member of the society. But, we, as majority of Sri Lankans understand the problem in a more realistic way.
In essence, Gen Fosnseka is a military man who spent most of his life fighting LTTE. If he is so bright, so efficient and so fierce, why he had to spend most of his life fighting this terrorists which was only a few thousands strong earlier. Not only that, for the last 30 odd years, whole Sri Lankan army was struggling with the terrorist group and could not wipe them out until 2009. Did you ever try to findout How this miracle happened.
It was the people, it was the people who won the war, it was the people who won the war by electing a new leadership.
Not only that, after electing a leadership, they really went further to scarify with all the comforts in their lives and with so much hardship to acquire the modern military equipment for the army. You should remember that every gun that used to fight the terrorists was given to the soldier by the people with their hard earned money.
The new political leaders, in turn, gave them the correct leadership and the proper guidance. It was not a secret any more that the West was behind this appalling terrorism and US and its allies together with the powerless politician discourage the war effort, and the US has kept on saying that we will never be able to get rid of terrorism. So, If you have one ounce of grey matter in your head, you will be able see who won the war. Not the army top brass, its is the people, the majority, not the minority like you.
The way the information reaching us, Gen Fonseka to become a surrogate politician in Sri Lanka by the illegitimate father of US and its allies. But we all have the answere.
"Army officer or a soldier wearing a uniform has no right whatsoever to engage in political work with any contesting candidates and any such soldier or officer if found will be subjected to disciplinary action and faces discharge from the Army."
http://www.army.lk/detailed.php?NewsId=1458
Was he sleeping all this time? How come disable soldiers who are on GOSL pay list contested on UPFA ticket. Why suddenly ... Has everyone in Govt seen the same fearful dream!!!!!
"We should be partial to the government in power."
Is this rule apples to you Army chief ?. your statement its self braking the rule. army suppose to serve the country and it's people not the government.
But remeber that for Raja family today's jagath will be tomorrow's sarath.
Sri Lanka Guardian Terrorist Site Coming to Full Form
The terrorist site hiding under the name Sri Lanka Guardian is showing all the spots these days. Early days, the site showed moderate facade with articles from Johnpulle, Bailey, Malinda etc. Now that they have decided to rip the facade and appear with all the spots, only the terrorists and top scum get the spotlight. Despite their yarns about freedom to speak, they "moderate" comments. Unlike DW, the term moderation has a different meaning at LG. Just like DBS Jeyaraj's site, that is to block any comment not favorable to their terrorist cause. The latest feature is from a terrorist with writing style similar to Iqbal Athas asking for an investigation how Vihilupundey was killed. The only thing I have for this doofus is that he needs to wait in line until we investigate all 70,000+ brutal killings by Vihilupundey's LTTE.
Did you hear that? My sources in the periphery say the government is planning to investigate the debacles in Muhamalai. How many debacles were there? I can’t count ’em. One overconfident former Jaffna commander thought it was a piece of cake for the two divisions. He killed thousands of poor boys from villages mercilessly for nothing. Never did he listen. He did it again and again. When we reported it he attacked us. What goes around comes around.
Dear DW,
Thank you for breaking the silence and I share your view strongly.
We love SF and also we love GR and also MR for what they did to save out motherland.
Let the Mother Lanka be happy with all her children and help settle misunderstanding between them....
If General Fonseka stuffed ballot boxes, went on plundering and killing in favor of the govt I am pretty sure there wont be any complains about army 'professionalism'. How do I know? The Wayaba elections back in 1990s Gen. Ratwatte runs amok while in uniform for this same party. The army and the govt was both corrupt and inept bunch of thieves. Neither did the Army win nor was there any political stability.
Later Gen SF enters the arena with an entirely different ideology. He gives position to those who earn it, absolutely no corruption or nepotism. This ideology beat LTTE.
What exists now is Gen. SF ideology in one corner and in the other Mahinda Rajapaske - the nepotist, corrupt despot of the Ratwatte ilk. What Gen SF said was he would leave the army to fix the problem if the environment that turn back to one that would breed terrorism again.
A hint of Wayaba election appeared back in southern PC election. Mahinda Rajapaske govt went stuffing ballot boxes, abusing state resources and terrorising candidates from other parties.
The option now in the hands of the people is choose the ideology for the country going forward. Do you want a losing army, political instability that would inevitably create another prabararn or wijeweera? Or do you want a winning, incorruptible govt that give place to those who deserve for long term peace and stability.
Mahinda Rajapacke was a good for the time when we had LTTE. Then we needed a phony con artist bigger than Prabakaran. But now LTTE is gone, the con artist no longer necessary and becoming a liability.
Panhinda,
"Mahinda Rajapacke was a good for the time when we had LTTE. Then we needed a phony con artist bigger than Prabakaran. But now LTTE is gone, the con artist no longer necessary and becoming a liability."
Are saying that UPFA won 2/3 in Souther Province by ballot stuffing. What a crock? us like Wickramadonkey, you have absolutely no feel for the pulse of the majority. Get rid of the top scum from UNP who almost gave this country to LTTE and made mockery of the majority before changing a popular government.
sam perera,
read the news first

My dear friend, loosing armies and Wijeweera are the things we had in the time of UNP. Slaghtering of thousands of poor Tamil Sri Lankans in Colombo due to inaction of the government is something we got in the time of UNP. Please get your facts straight before making statements.
Panhinda,
Are you saying that UPFA won 2/3 by ballot stuffing and they had no chance in winning otherwise. Please do us a favor, try to talk to the conman men and women of Southern Province.
Monkey Pigbal Athas aka MIA,
Old nasty habits die hard for a traitor who tried to demoralize our nation's fight against terrorist. Your sources in the periphery of the government? really? Got to be the same source who told you that "Indira Radar" was damaged with a big explanation how the radar got the name after Indira Gandhi. Aren't you the one who said in DW that you support LTTE because that is where your heart is? What a scum bag. It is hilarious to see an old traitors like you shedding crocodile tears about our soldiers who made the ultimate sacrifice while your heart is with LTTE. Now, now pandi kutti, you still engage in disinformation even after summary defeat of LTTE culminated with flushing your "Mr. Prabakaran," as you call, in to a cesspit in Tamil Eelam. Consider you to be very fortunate not to get the traditional traitor's punishment after all those years of pro-terrorist and anti-national acts, you scummy.
Sam,
if the pulse of the majority of the people is with this govt, why so many election irregularities? Why not give space in state news, websites and tv for opposition parties if they are not scared for a debate? those who hide have a good reason to do so.
is it true someone from Mahinda Rajapake party poured whiskey on a Buddhist monk a abused the ven when he did not give him the preference votes?
why resort to such things if the pulse of the people is with Mahinda Rajapase?
Buddy Astri,
What is it? Experinced domestic violence at home? Your dadda abusing your mama? Leave profanity with your mama and dadda in the slum and we have a debate then.
Sam
Is this PaanHingana not the same as that Incest Dad?
Both mommafuckers have the same writing style, same pro RW=LTTE sentiments, same rabidly anti-MR GOSL attitude, etc.
Over to you mate to tell (using your never failing "Intelligence/Analytics") if these two bitches are the same.
Bohoma Issthuthi!
:)) :)) :))
OaO Asithri
Panhinda,
Have you been to the southern province recently? My guess is not. I don't think that the government is not corrupt and forthcoming in everything. However, this is the government and the leader who restored our peace and dignity after 30 years of living under shadows of terrorism. In the case you are not aware, more than 50% of the soldiers who died in the battle against Eelamist terrorists are from South. Not only that, there is lot of development happening in the south, even during the war. Corruption was equally bad with UNP. The difference is that we eliminated the terrorists. I am not sure how much you have been in a Sinhala society to feel how people treat anybody who had outdone Prince Gamini Abhaya? What Ranil Wickramadonkey is up against is the most unenviable task of challenging President Mahinda Rajapakse who shines equal or brighter than Prince Gamini Abahaya. If you don't believe what I say, I suggest you to take a tour in the country side of the Southern Province.
PaanHingana
[Experinced domestic violence at home? ]
Yes, you mother wants to go anal and I am opting for oral.
LMSSAO!!! Truly LMSSAO!!!
OaO Asithri (who else? :))
Well said DW.
It will be truly unfortunate for Sri Lanka if the two sides do not come to their senses soon.
In the meantime the pot stirrers like Fonseka2010 must be silenced.
Sam,
What happened in the past is no measure for what happens in future. there has to be a difference now that LTTE is not there.
what exists now its clearing for all kinds of abuses to end. there is a direct correlation between terrorism and corruption. This is simply something you cannot ignore. We need to keep govt until there is no corruption.
atri, yawn!
PaanHingana
[and we have a debate then]
ha ha ha...a debate with you ponnaya?
Bloody hypocritical paraya...who evades my revelation of who you really are! Pretending to be a "concerned Sri Lankan" when it is really "concerned for RW=LTTE interests" !!!
Hey mommafucker, how about we go for "peace talks" with the LTTE?
No?
I guess not...you would rather wait till RW Huttha comes to power (in this case by using SF) then give them LTTE whores the "ISGA" uh?
LMSSAO!!! Truly LMSSAO!!!
OaO Asithri
buddy astri, im relaxing here watching rugby with a nice cuppa. i will let you know when i read what you said there. i cant make promises thoguh.
Panhinda,
"What happened in the past is no measure for what happens in future. there has to be a difference now that LTTE is not there."
That is the theory you like to put forward. However, this theory doesn't work well in politics. What happened in the past will always follow in politics. That is exactly what President Premadasa did in his time to make Sajith instantly recognizable politician, not to mention that Sajith developed it very well. That exactly is what D.A. Rajapakese did to make his off springs known politicians. Think of how Sirimavo, Chandrika, and Anura rode the fame and name built by SWRD. I can give you plenty of examples around the world how somebody's past influence the political future. In the case of Mahinda Rajapakse, thing done by hero kings Gamini Abhaya and Kiththi Vijayabahu makes him shine brighter.
sam,
look lets agree to disagree. that is the most civilised thing to do.
Whoa! OaOA bro looks like you are castrating another Ranil ponnaya here! Keep it up man as we can expect more of these pro Ranil+LTTE bastards to come in here – like in the last days of the LTTE cunts, when they tried to save LTTE by saying “this war will never be won” kind of demoralizing statement. In a rush mate but I will be watching….
"that is the most civilised thing to do."
Ado paraya, do you know the meaning of the word "civilized" ?
Being "civilized" is not being a traitor, not being an undercover agent to break up one's country.
para wesa, go look in the dictionary.
Sam said..
(Sri Lanka Guardian Terrorist Site Coming to Full Form) etc...
It comes as no suprise
that "patriots" like Sam blindly advocate everything done by a government right or wrong.
The dangerous trend of this government and (many so called "patriots" in here) where the “traitor” label is thrown out so freely to all those who disagree and the people are expected to cow down to unscrupulous characters.
SLG, in my opinion is the only unbaised news site who share and advocate the freedom of expression allowing articles from all sides. Unlike the despicable one sided ones like Lankaweb, tamilnet, Asian Tribune.
I'm in favour of moderating comments in any site that attack the author, writer, blogger etc.
If there is anything sadder than a cause so intellectually and morally bankrupt that it can only be supported by attacking its critics instead of their arguments.
Those beating their keyboards in impotent rage.
We see malevolent comments in DW intoxicated with venom, vengeance, and vile hatred against anyone who disagrees or critical of the government,typifies the emotional nature of most Sri Lankans, a quality that seems to be the key driving force of the Sinhalese - one that seems rooted in deeply seeded insecurities.
Saving grace is the fact none of these vile charactors (a tiny minority)live nor have influence in SL or else the future of Sri Lanka is very gloomy for the vulnerables to live in peace with security and dignity.
Sam
[Corruption was equally bad with UNP. The difference is that we eliminated the terrorists.]
Well said. Herein lies the key point.
I remember visiting Colombo during the hay days of RW Huttha (during the days he was intoxicated with his CFA!) and seeing the rampant corruption in Colombo run by UNF big-wigs.
Colombo was virtually ruled by the organized crime aka "casino mafia" and it was gut-wrenching to see the amount of money they were raking in with child prostitution, drug pushing (with even openly peddling heroine to teenagers at Clubs - which I saw to my own eyes!) and the amount of money they were stuffing in the pockets of key UNF politicos and the Colombo Police to look the other way.
Some UNF big wigs who got rich during that time to this date are floating in money (most of it of course hidden in foreign bank accounts).
So any mommafucker who comes here and harps on "corruption" is just being hypocritical for the sole purpose of wanting those golden days of RW=LTTE UNF to be brought back - and of course LTTE whore granted their "thamileelam" to make sure no bombs go off in their casinos/brothels etc. as bombs are particularly bad for that type of business.
OaO Asithri
Who is tarnishing the Image of the Country?
From SLG
Hundreds of people were gathered around the beach whilst the violent act was perpetrated on Thursday against this innocent and mentally disabled man. Police officers pursued the man who was seen stoning buses and trains on the beach side road. He was chased by the police towards the sea and the victim went as far as into the sea.
The police men did not find ways to get him out of the see, but went on to charge him with the batons. The video footage shows the man was defending himself from the police attack. His resistance was in vain, within few minutes the sea drama of the police came to an end and the man was dead choking in the water. For the spectators, it was real drama and for others the video footage is a real life film. This incident reflects the ugly face of the security persons at the time when the outgoing Inspector General of Police boasted them as exemplary service men.
Perhaps few weeks ago, we watched the video release by the Journalists for Democracy in Sri Lanka brought to the public domain by the UK based Channel 4 news. The footage showed young Tamil men being executed by the army.
There was even a video footage of abhorring dealings by the Sri Lankan forces of the dead bodies of Tamil Tiger female cadres.
These are in addition to the display of naked bodies of Tamil Tiger cadres in an open truck in the holy city of Anuradhapura following an encounter in the army base.
These incidents are strongly condemned by the Sri Lanka Government and it always qualifies them by saying these are huge conspiracies against the government to tarnish the image of the forces.
The latest footage of the killing of the mentally ill man makes the government defenseless and it has made everyone clear who has tarnished the image of the country. The government remains exposed and it is in a twisted knickers situation, unable to blame it on external forces. The denial spree government is good at creating another concocted story on the latest incident.
The victim, the 26 years old Shivakumara was a resident of Ratmalana - just few miles away from where he was killed and the area is mainly an ethnic Tamil minority concentrated place in Colombo.
‘This kind of police brutality has taken place all over Sri Lanka in the past few years. The IGP must take the responsibility for this shocking incident’ said Mr. Basil Fernando, director of the Asian Human Rights
Speaking from Delhi, Mr. Basil Fernando further said, “ This is just one single brutal act that was witnessed by the people. There are no law and order and a highly corrupted brutal Police service has carried out this act. We were seen this in Angulana when the wife of high ranking police offer took the law into her hand and brutally punished the school children, just few months ago.”
“The Asian Human Rights Commission condemns (AHRC) both the police and the Government of Sri Lanka for this incident and many other similar incidents routinely occurring in the country. The police officers who commit such acts continue to remain as law enforcement officers is not just surprising but truly shocking. Before anything else, the Sri Lankan government must get rid of the persons in the law enforcement agencies who do such barbaric acts and blatantly violate the law. A heavy burden lies with the country's Attorney General - under whom there is branch to prosecute torture perpetrators - to act decisively,” Mr. Basil Fernanado added.

"SLG, in my opinion is the only unbaised news site who share and advocate the freedom of expression allowing articles from all sides. Unlike the despicable one sided ones like Lankaweb, tamilnet, Asian Tribune."
Of course in you alternative universe, censorship is ok as long as it covers your back. However, the censorship is not good when it is about blatant anti Sri Lankan lies. For the ones who talked about democracy and transparency in governance, a military coup is a good thing to over turn a democratically elected government. Jay Haan Perera, you perfectly amount to you public top scum account.
There is nothing wrong with censoring profanity.
SLG goes one step over by censoring certain "ideas" to which Satchi (or RAW) doesn't subscribe.
Still, it is much better than David 'BS' Jeyaraj who amends comments to his liking and publishes them under original poster's name and email.
Panhinda,
It is not what we agree to disagree that matters. It the understanding of the ground situation that matters.
[can't they take him somewhere and kill him??? there is a way to kill public nuisence creators as in other countries.]
Idiot, Mosquito, can't think the person who was brutally murdered by SLA thugs had mental illness.
I hope someone stones this arsehole, Mosquito, for good.
No wonder why compassion for others is lacking in these Sinhala animals.
[Hundreds of people were gathered around the beach whilst the violent act was perpetrated on Thursday against this innocent and mentally disabled man.]
SL joins the ranks of Saudi or Iraq where stoning the woman/man for committing adultery or having affair with different ethnic individual is norm; here in SL they kill a person in public place for being mentally ill.
The C4 video clip of brutal execution of Tamil prisoners by Srilankan armed forces is no longer surprise to anyone.

Do what the Australian's do in Bondi, just shoot the guy dead. That way, there is no controversy.
If one of those stones hits someone in the train, people would be dead.
Mentally ill? Looks to me like a load of bullshit by Tamils to get Sympathy after the fact. If he was mentally ill, should have been taken care by his guardians. Looks like a pissed off LTTE cadre who wanted to follow his Sun God to haven.
As usual, Tamilnet puts its own spin on the story.
What is wrong like being Saudi Arabia. If we go soft, soft approach, SL will be like, Iraq, Mexico e.t.c.

I trust you know the subtle difference between "censorship" and "moderation".
I'm not advocating the type censorship that the GOSL undertook and still undertakes with media organisation in SL by threatening editors,journalist etc critical of the Government.
Moderation, i expect with regards to profanity, offensive characterisation and the like.
Instead of countering the content and issues.
Naturally, any unfavourable news item in your eyes, Sam, is a "blantant anti Sri Lankan lie".
Is it any wonder that, most
international news media accessing official sources for reports have abandon them as unreliable.
Mindsets have been so warped over all these years of conflict that a lot of people now seem to be completely incapable of dispassionate and rational analysis of criticism. They don’t believe that any unfavourable remarks could possibly be true or at least offered with genuine intentions, even when that is the most likely possibility.
This is for the benefit of Sam.
This is how Daily News reported the forced drowning of a youth.
Mentally unsound man's body washes ashore:
Cop arrested for allegedly beating victim.
allegedly? Oh common on!
More than half the nation watched the video footage of this dastardly act, and the Daily News says its "allegedly"
DN appears to like the word "allegedly"
Time to call the GOSL "independent" video experts, don't you think?
Jay,
"Mindsets have been so warped over all these years of conflict that a lot of people now seem to be completely incapable of dispassionate and rational analysis of criticism."
Here we go again, Jay Haan the mighty loner who sees the absolute truth when masses are incapable. Boorubahu Karunarathne would like to have you in the team for thinking that the rest of the world is stupid.
Now for the smartest man, please find a definition of censorship as noted below.
Censorship is the suppression of speech or deletion of communicative material which may be considered objectionable, harmful, sensitive, or inconvenient to the government or media organizations as determined by a censor.
I italicized important words for your convenience. At least your genius should be able to draw connection between "censorship" and "deletion" or "not publishing" comments by a media organization, in this case SLG.
Jay,
Allege? What a nice twist. I thought that you are somebody talking about fair legal processes even for terrorist leaders cum mass killers like Prabakaran. So you saw a video of the incident recorded far away and based on that video you have already convicted the cop. No court hearings nothing, just he is proven guilty hence not alleged therefore. Jay, I will not argue on this subject if it came from somebody else. However, when Jay Haan Perera the crusader for transparency says it, this is blatant display of irrational thinking. Please educate us on the path you took to go from allege to guilty in your transparent system?
These things don’t happen in Jay’s West. Remember Rodney King? It took a riot to get justice.
As for the Editor who has lost the password to Puligal - are you saying that the people watching are all Sinhalese, who are by the way a minority population in Colombo?
I do believe that the policeman over-reacted and should have handled the situation in a very different way and it’s only right that he has been taken into custody.
I saw the video of two policemen beating of that man who had thrown the rocks at the train.
I felt so sad. I was sad because one lunatic died in front of my eyes for no reason. And I was sad because two mean idiots destroyed their own lives (in front of my eyes) by beating that man.
The war made us tough (that is good). But at the same time the war and the two JVP insurrections made us mean which is terrible.
The war is over. Now we need to sit down and think about where we should be heading from here.
Many are discussing of achieving economic prosperity(But I see no discussion about the suitable paths to achieve that goal).
And some are talking about the steps which need to be taken to stop separatists raising their heads again (including SF).
And few, including myself, are pleading for vast improvements of governance by policing the police and creating a good civil service.
But we are neglecting one important improvement our society requires. During the past thirty years value of a human life has greatly reduced. This has to be changed. We need a just society in which the law should be equal to everybody and respected by everybody. We should aim for better Mutual respect, friendliness towards others and being soft towards each other. (Of course not towards the enemies of the nation). Present day government should get input of the sociologists in this regard. Movies, TV series and other media can always be used. (I heard that 'Little House on the Prairie' and the 'Kung Fu' series had large effects on American society).
Achieving all of the above goals are not easy. But one has to dream first. With proper actions the dreams can become reality. Instead of KISSING BIG POLITICO ASSES (of MR and RW) we should keep reminding them of our dreams.
IT WASN'T A FORCED DROWNING
I need to be fair to those two stupid (and mean) policemen who beat that man.
If you watch the video carefully you will see that Policemen were indicating him to come out of the water. (We do not hear what they say. But see their hand movements). But he wasn't listening to them which is quite understandable. More beating would have been waiting for him there. Resulting beating was due to that I guess which made him move further in to the deep water.
The actions of these stupid Police men took the life of that unfortunate man.
But IT WASN'T A FORCED DROWNING as media claims. I am sure about that.
Sri Lanka seeks access to suspected LTTE cadres held in Canadaby
Sri Lanka is seeking access to a group of Sri Lankan Tamils held in Canada following intelligence reports that some of them are members of the LTTE. The suspected LTTE cadres, including some of those believed involved in the group’s clandestine shipping operations, were apprehended recently while approaching the Canadian coast in an LTTE-operated ship.
A senior government spokesman told The Sunday Island that representations had been made to the Canadian High Commission in Colombo in this regard. He said that the Sri Lankan mission in Canada, too, called for access to the detainees as this would help Sri Lankan intelligence services to track down remaining LTTE operatives based abroad.
An intelligence official said that the Canadians have been fully briefed of the presence of LTTE cadres on board the seized vessel. Sri Lanka has also alerted Interpol.
Government sources said that the Canadian government may find it difficult to allow Sri Lankan officials an opportunity to question suspects though some of them could be hardcore terrorists. They said that the Sri Lanka could not ignore the fact that most of the 78 persons now in Canadian custody had boarded the vessel in Indian waters.
Responding to The Sunday Island queries, they said that there was irrefutable evidence that the vessel had been to India in August/September several months after the final battle on the banks of the Nanthikadal lagoon killed Velupillai Prabhakaran.
India too should be involved in this investigation for several reasons, they said. The vessel could have carried LTTE cargo at the time it had entered Mumbai and then moved to a second port.
Sri Lanka had every right to seek access to persons held in Canada as there was absolutely no doubt of their involvement in terrorism, the sources said.
Foreign Ministry sources stressed the need for an international investigation to establish a possible link among the ship intercepted by the Canadians as well as about 370 Sri Lankans recently held by Indonesia and Australia.
Sri Lanka is yet to receive access to them despite evidence that LTTE cadres can be taking refuge among civilians.
Australia refuses Tamil refugees from Sri Lanka
Australian authorities have said 78 Sri Lankan asylum seekers in Indonesia will not be taken to Australia, their intended destination.
The ethnic Tamil asylum seekers have spent 10 days on an Australian customs ship in Indonesian waters.
Indonesia agreed last week to take the group to have their claims examined, but local officials are refusing to allow the Australian vessel to dock.
Australia has been faced with a sharp increase in asylum seekers this year.
`There`s an agreement between Australia and the government of Indonesia that the people who were rescued in the open seas will go to Indonesia and be processed by the United Nations High Commission for Refugees in Indonesia,` Australia`s Foreign Minister Stephen Smith told ABC News.
`No choice`
On Tuesday, an Indonesian provincial governor stopped the Australian customs vessel Oceanic Viking from docking on Bintan island, near Singapore.
He said the island was not a `dumping ground` for refugees.
The Tamil asylum seekers were due to be taken to an Australian-funded detention centre on Bintan where other detainees have allegedly been beaten by guards.
The Tamils themselves have said they will not leave the ship voluntarily and have refused to co-operate with identity checks.
Mr Smith said they had no choice about where they claim asylum.
`They were picked up on the high seas. They were rescued on the high seas - it`s not their choice.`
The 78 Tamils are the latest in a flood of asylum seekers trying to reach Australia.
Indonesia`s navy also recently agreed to intercept another boat carrying about 250 Sri Lankans off the Java coast, who are currently refusing to leave their boat.
Human traffickers often use Indonesia or Malaysia as staging points before putting the migrants on boats for the hazardous voyage to Christmas Island, an Australian territory.
Australia receives just a fraction each year of what the UN estimates to be more than 15 million refugees globally, but the issue has split the country.
The opposition blames Prime Minister Kevin Rudd`s government for relaxing the country`s refugee laws.
Others criticise the government for not allowing the asylum seekers into Australia to have their cases examined.

One man has killed another man. happens every day every country.. only thing you don't see recorded video. So the problem here is video.. not the killing.
BTW, what do we have for this year donkey day celebrations..? apart from selva's candles and vadeis.
IT'S been revealed that most of the Sri Lankan asylum seekers in a standoff with Australian authorities off Indonesia's Bintan Island have admitted living in Indonesia for years, providing the Rudd Government with leverage to convince Indonesia to take them back.
In written messages thrown off the Oceanic Viking, the Australian customs ship that has been home to the 78 ethnic Tamils for the past two weeks, the asylum seekers said they had been living in Indonesia for as long as five years and had been accepted by the United Nations office in Jakarta as genuine refugees.
The message insisted the Sri Lankans had arrived in Indonesia "normally".

This is absolutely true. It is not because of EELAM war, but also because of the two JVP rebellions, the hearts of the people have become rocks.
What I found appalling is that Tamils trying to take advantage of a sad situation and try to vilify our disgrace a nation. It does not matter whether it was Sinhalese or Tamil or Muslim youth, it shocked the whole nation.
A paper alleges, the other two involved are army, I can understand the behaviour of the police, but I would have imagined army personal had better sense of justice and would have saved the kid.

OK, I think it is timeout for this unfortunate incident involving a mentally disturbed (alleged, not proven yet) being attacked by the Police and drowning in sea, in Colombo.
As one can see clearly, anti-SL elements are now gearing up for another SL bashing and already some Tamil racist cocksuckers have pulled out their knives I see.
A violent mentally disturbed person dying due to police action (meant to subdue) is not exclusive to Sri Lanka and as the following links show, it happens even in the so called “civilized” and “sophisticated” Western world (this is only a tiny sample of incidences):.

Hemantha,
Anything US tries to do with SF will make majority of Sri Lankans extremely hostile towards USA. Butenis' visit to Malwathu-Asgiri will make prelates regret that they welcomed her. This is a perfect way of pushing a very US friendly nation further away from US for a few million dollars from LTTE terrorist supporters to Patrick Lehey and Hillary Clinton. On the positive side, patriotic masses will be even more vigilant and cohesive as a result defeating western butt kissers like UNP with higher margins than 2/3rd of votes. I hope that some common sense will prevail in USA to not to pursue terrorists interests in exchange of few dollars.

US don't want to exist any military strategist better than theirs in a country not obedient to US.. So the message is lick white ass or ready to get hanged..

---------------------------------
Even if this is not true, SF and GR would be charged for war crimes one day in U.S. It is incredibly naive to think that they can escape from charges when we have such a strong Diaspora working against SL. It is time SF and GR tear their green cards and stop visiting U.S. or U.K. They might be able to beat the charges, but is there a point in wasting their time any money going through this type of court proceedings.
Thusitha and Hemantha,
If it is true that they withdrew the invitation to SF for that conference in Hawaii and then they try to talk to him, USA is up to no good at this point on behalf of LTTE terrorists. If LTTE terrorists remnants pay Hillary and Lehey another few million dollars, they will walk an extra mile for terrorists. However, it will be a very costly for USA in a multitude of ways.
Sam,
I do not know weather this news item is correct or not. But i feel it is.
But, if you are expecting common sense from madame Hillary and from Patrick Leahy, I would say, you are expecting too much.
Of course, no common sense can be expected from Hillary and Lehey. However, they don't run all the operations together in diplomatic front.
Thusitha,
I agree with you there that Gota and SF should stop visiting US for some time. Specially SF because he would be made responsible for all the actions of SL Army. (I stated the same here around eight months back. But it was about Gota). I heard that some Israel commanders are not visiting certain European countries either due to the same reason.
May be they (SF and Gota) are thinking that they haven't done anything wrong so nothing wrong would come to them. But they should know that these elam bitches are so capable of lying, cooking something is nothing to them.
Hemantha,
There are bogus war crime allegations cooked up by LTTE terrorist stooges. It will be very interesting to see USA who is at the forefront of war against terror are going to prosecute somebody with bogus war crime charges, also with no evidence for obvious reasons. Regardless of the way it goes forward, those green monkeys and terrorist stooges like Perera and Saravanamuththu ay have to live in exile for the rest of thei lives.
Why someone like SF should care too much about US GC especially he has become prominent figure in SL after his military victory?
If he really loves SL, he won't care much about US GC. And it tells something that he is a proven sellout and war-criminal.

Ado Bahirawaya,
How is your terrorist lover appa is doing.
Well, what have we here…my BB went off telling me to look at the DW blog…
I am trying to confirm if this indeed the case, but being late night on a Saturday in my hemisphere not had the final word yet…
However…a few observations either way….
Yes, SF should NOT have visited the US at this time. He was advised NOT TO DO SO by many a well-wisher (some even in the US), but he was adamant to go ahead.
Prior to going to the US, he was advised by Butenis that his official trip to Hawaii to attend a US Navy some f-function was cancelled in light of the “war crimes” report that had gone to the US Congress. Now you would think that if he had used his better judgment, or even listened to the many well-wishers aka SME’s (i.e. people with “know-how of international matters” that is), he would have postponed his visit to the US – at least until the “dust settled down”…but alas, no, he was determined to go ahead.
What most don’t care to keep in mind is that the LTTE whores have $1Billion in slush-funds (earlier meant for arms) that they are determined to use to “punish” SL and keep going for their “thamileelam” using corrupt western world-officials.
So, what have we here? We all know there is no grounds for “war crimes” here…but we can see that this can be a major embarrassment to SL. According to the story, GOSL is paying a hefty sum of money for SF’s legal representations to handle this new turn of event, but at the same time as he is a Green Card holder of the US, he can be considered a “US Resident” with all the complications that entails.
This was all very unnecessary.
The bottom line: We must all remember that we do not know everything about everything and times comes when we must humbly listen to the SMEs!!!
OaO Asithri
There are at least three psychopaths here booty licking General Fonseka. Booty lickers are dime a dozen in countryside. What these psychopaths living in the comfort of foreign lands don’t understand is young men died in thousands because of this overconfident General. I wish the same fate will befall these psychopaths' children. That will make them realize the gravity of the situation. Only that can take their tongues and brains away from the General's booty. Now the General is having some 'inconveniences' in USA according to reliable information. His responses will be recorded and analyzed before USA takes any action. General and his senior have a poor record of facing difficult situations. Anything can happen.
Sarath ‘Muhamalai’ Fonseka is anyway going to face charges either in Sri Lanka or outside Sri Lanka for killing thousands of Sinhala and Tamil youth, attacking journalists who in good faith tried to point out his mistakes. Gotabhaya will join him for using hooligans to attack journalists. Psychopaths will now come after me. That is unfortunately the trend in this country.
Hema
[May be they (SF and Gota) are thinking that they haven't done anything wrong so nothing wrong would come to them. But they should know that these elam bitches are so capable of lying, cooking something is nothing to them.]
This is true brother.
This gets to be a challenge when we keep in mind that these LTTE whorebitches have $1 Billion at their disposal to pay for media orgs, HRW orgs, bribe corrupt western-world officials, etc etc and attack Sri Lanka and keep going for "thamileelam."
Some of our so called "leaders" (the exception be Gotabhaya R), are totally oblivious to this fact.
Gota keeps telling that the "war is not over" on account of this fact, but some of our other complacent "leaders" are acting like bloody cocksure mandarins!!!

Asthri bro,
Agree with you mostly. But,
According to what I heard SF visited US to fulfill a greencard requirement. If his green card is cancelled, somehow, his daughters attending the universities there will have to pay 'out of state fees' which is a huge sum of money. (So it is basically a family matter).

Ninja,
What General Jayasooriya says is the obvious. Armed forces of SL are part of the elected government of SL. They serve the government elected by people,i.e., serving people. Irrespective which party is in power, they serve the elected government. That is the constitutional duty assigned to forces.
Dear Sri Lankans,
See how they plan to trap Sarath ‘Muhamalai’ Fonseka.
He has revealed his intentions to enter politics. But for that he has to forego his position. He will be expelled if he doesn’t voluntarily give up according to the Ministry.
Army officer or a soldier wearing a uniform has no right whatsoever to engage in political work with any contesting candidates and any such soldier, officer if found will be subjected to disciplinary action and faces discharge from the Army. Support given by the President and Secretary Defence for the victory of the war directly attributed to its win over terrorism," Commander further said.

When he is expelled, he loses sovereign immunity in USA. Many Tamil groups will file charges against him. He cannot be a successful politician. Before he does anything he will be taken to court.
When the General relinquishes his military office in Sri Lanka, he will shed the sovereign immunity, and will expose himself to legal action in the US," an official of Tamils Against Genocide (TAG), a US-pressure group that has filed a model indictment with the Justice Department against Fonseka and Gothabaya Rajapakse, and is working on gathering Satellite evidence on criminal culpability in Sri Lanka's war crimes, told TamilNet.

-------------------------------
That cannot be correct. The daughters must be green card holders. Therefore it is unlikely that SF loosing green card would affect their status as U.S. green card holders.
Anyway the legal cost would surpass the cost of their education, plus really unnecessary risk. How difficult is it for SF earn few hundred grand? I would imagine their would be many countries willing to pay some one like him just for military advice.

I think we shouldn't worry too much about this for the moment as there are other forces in US might exert pressure to drop any serious charges against SF.If they ever do go against SF then there may be repercussions within that country that might lead to close scrutiny of the diaspora involvement in the campaign funds and lobbying of their politicians that might open a can of worms.Their media is wating for a such an oppotunity.

Hema,
I see your point re. the GC and yes, I was aware of it.
However, I do not think any official of the GoSL should place the nation's honor, the nation's integrity at jeopardy by taking actions that are entirely of personal interests. No ifs and buts about this as far as I am concerned.
I doubt this very much but, let’s say even if it was going to cost $20,000 more in tuition fees for the "next little while" for his kids education in the US (and I know the fee disparities as I live in the US) I think had he rationalized this "risk-reward" scenario with the GOSL, GOSL would have gladly paid the Delta and gone along with a deferral of his visit to the US - at least until this "war crimes" report to the US Congress dies the natural death that it is destines to die and LTTE motherfuckers once again to back to licking their own dicks...well this is all assuming he was still having the same congenial relationship with this GOSL that heaped praise upon praise on him for all of SLDF winning the war and rewarded him with a valued property in Colombo, a $40,000 brand new car, etc. at the completion of his “Commander” position in the SLA.
Well as we know, the Tamil racist cocksuckers and RW UriNePee Ponnayas say the relationship was sour…but as we know, the jury is out on that one!

No no, it was to send a message out to the RW=LTTE UriNePee cocksuckers that they will not/cannot have a SF in uniform to support them (not that SF said that he will support the RW=LTTE ponna clan anyway)!!!
Being the Democracy that we are (unlike Pakistan of late), keep in mind that MR is the "Commander in Chief" of all the armed forces of Sri Lanka and the reason why we are not at yet another "peace talks" with the LTTE whores is because MR said NO, NO MORE CEASEFIRES, NO MORE PEACE TALKS!
This is the difference we saw this time...that finally we had a "Commander in Chief" with balls who showed not only the Sakkili/Kallathoni bitches that he was a man of his word, but also showed the RW-UriNePee=LTTE opposition bitches (who were colluding with the LTTE-sympathetic west and lobbying to pressurize the GoSL to stop the war and go for yet another "ceasefire" with the LTTE whorecunts) that enough was enough!

the way of killing the bamba victim was barbaric. wrongdoers should be punished and the family compensated.
killing the victim by a more humane way is the only solution. criminal law fails to handle bcos of mental instability.
but they are NOT condemned to institutions permanantly in SL. they get away after a few years of "sane" behaviour.
they do harm again. their crimes become GRAVER and graver by the year leading to serial killings, etc.
the victim has shown this tendancy which is very dangerous, even more potentially dangerous.

We now have a martyr for our cause.
When people see others willing to make sacrifices for dream of seeing Gen. Fonseka as our president, they will also start to believe in CHANGE.
This incident shows that the 110 Ministers and the Royal Family are seriously worried about the prospects of Gen. Fonseka being president.

otherwise these sick ppl tend to pelt stones at trains!!
Patriots,
There is no "war crimes" case against Gen. Fonseka. He is the most professional person in Sri Lankan military.
The news about "interview" spread by terroristnet is false.
Gen. Fonseka was asked to give evidence against the runaway Lt. Col. who had done war crimes in Colombo to arrested youth from the comfort of his air con room.

-------------------------------
One thing is very clear, the Daily Mirror is newspaper run by the Terrorists or UNP.
Just can't understand how this kind of newspapers can exist in SL.
Wonder how many other nations that has newspapers that work against the nation.
Asthiri,
Any news from the U.S. The new papers like LT, DM, STs are all seem to be making things up as much as possible.
thusitha,
wijeya newspapers is owned by the RW family.
one of their newspapers had RW's uncle as editor.
but these newspapers are very popular. UNP is now trying to capitalize on it.
Patriots,
The popular bollger Indi is hinting at possibility of giving support for the Gen. Fonseka campaign.
As you know, this patriot controls much of the net-savvy youth in Sri Lanka. This is most welcome news for the People's Campaign.
This is CHANGE WE CAN BELIEVE IN.
As far as I can see there is nothing substantial to prove any war crime.
Only thing significant witness accounts given by 3 doctors. But then they have already said they were forced to lie or LTTE. even if they change their story, it will go against reliability.
The others, i.e. shelling of hospitals, unless they have realtime satellite images proving shell originated from an army controlled area, there is no proof. also accidental fire does not constitute war crime. they must have evidence someone gave order to deliberately target civilians.
The graves recorded by ch4 are all LTTE graves with their number next to grave.
The only thing remaining is alleged killing of 8 "political branch" LTTE. where is the wittiness to prove anything? unless there is some audio or sat monitoring. Blake was involved in this. not sure if he has audio coverage over sat phone etc. even then its a petty crime when everything is put in context.
There's only a single method to take forward any war crimes charges: Use Fonseka as "primary source" in case against Gotha.
Looks to me like Fonseka's US trip was well planned and the current scenario anticipated.
http://www.spot.lk/article6494-us-attempting-to-use-general-fonseka-as-source-against-human-rights-violations-in-sri-lanka.html
It may be shrewd move by Fonseka to subdue UPFA in preparation for the elections. Looks like Gotha's fate hangs on Fonseka's fingers.

--------------------------------
Stop BS mate. If anyone is going to get it, it would be SF. He is the one who is stuck in U.S. Not Gota.
Does he pull the trigger, or does he not?
On what terms would Rajapaksas be willing to compromise with Fonseka?
Interesting days ahead.
Gen. SF will never likely to go against the establishment vis-a-viz LTTE and war crimes.
If he does that he will lose all support he has among the ordinary public.
http://www.adaderana.lk/news.php?nid=5898
Adaderana is certainly not a UNP source.
Fonseka holds GC while Gotha is a citizen. GC holders are often deported while citizens are jailed.
Looks to me like US doesn't intend to file case against Fonseka, though some might argue he is just as culpable as Gotha for any crimes. This is US hypocrisy and cherry picking at its best. But that's just the way the world works.
News Flash,
Homeland security wants to find out how to implement White van solution from SF. They say there are too many LTTE Sakkiliyas living in U.S.
Whatever "evidence" Fonseka gives now needs not be made public immediately or ever.
However, should the Rajapaksas get jittery and decide on a Lasantha treatment for their new political rival, his "evidence" can be unwrapped and used against Gotha.
This may well be a simple move to guarantee security for Fonseka while he is electioneering in a country where beating a man to death on live TV is Friday evening entertainment.
One can call it Fonseka's "safety net". Now, don't we all know of experts that weave "international safety nets"?
Given the history between Blake and Gota, Gota will have trouble once he re-enter US but he may not want to. Given there is no extradition treaty Gota is safe even if anything was proven - agnain pretty remote.

---------------------------------
Mate, for them to get Gota, he needs to be in the U.S. Plus Gota is a Dual Citizen. They can't do anything while he is in SL or SL friendly nation. Gota is a smart guy. Anyway you can't get Political leaders in that manner. You need U.N. authorization. I am sure GR is much more sensible than do do something like this.
Anyway we are still not hundred percent sure whether he is been called and what he is being called for.
Fielding questions legitimacy of asylum-seekers
Peter, Bahirav care to comment on your brethren you are faking it? Not only that they are teaching their kids how to become liars.
I'm really pissed off at Sarath Fonseka at the moment.
Why the fuck did he have to go the US? All for a fucking green card? I mean seriously, what was going through his mind? Why does he appear so greedy for his green card?
Also, why the fuck is he acting like a spoilt brat? Did Mahinda refuse one of his requests or something? What is the reason for the "fallout." Is anyone able to give any more information on this.
Don't get me wrong, I like Sarath Fonseka, but I'm trying to understand what he is up to, and I don't get it.
Relax Patriots!,
Watch how this drama is going to unroll.

Monkeys are never too old to learn tricks.
Basil makes a list of names of businessmen who earned from the war
Sources from Temple Trees said Senior Presidential Advisor Basil Rajapaksa is heading a committee tasked to form a list of names of businessmen who made money from the war. The list it is learnt is being prepared to receive the support of these businessmen for President Mahinda Rajapaksa at the next Presidential election.
Is'nt this a suprise?
Basil should know the "names" as he's been receiving 10-19% of the "takings".
Dont get too greedy Basil!
How about the IDP's you "releasing" for a brown paper packet, dont they fit into your plans or has Douglas D scuppered it?
Wow Sam!
Those ID's you listed.
I'm impressed!

Now SF is in trouble in US, will Ranil, Chandrika, former JVP insurgent now Buddhist monk in US, will come to his help? He should telephone directly to Gotabhaya and President to get clear advise to avoid disaster.
This is a serious situation, because it is becoming abundantly clear that SF is unable to control himself and may get himself into foreign traps. The best thing for him now is get back to Sri Lanka immediately, without facing US governmental interviews.
Has SF shot himself in his foot?
White Van to greet him?

Asoka, His letters are amusing!
Hello Jay,
I think even the Rajapaske supporter agrees Rajapaske bros are stealing. They may for example pocket 1/3 of the forex coming into the country as commissions and use 2/3 for "nation building". What they say is its all unavoidable. As we speak money from the treasury must be disappearing into Swiss accounts.
So what we have to be is happy they are at least giving us 2/3 of our own money. Not just ours but future generations who will be left paying back the loans.
May be its something our ancient Sinhala kings used to do as well, who knows.
Jay the Little Terrorist Monkey,
You conveniently slip away when you can't answer questions or caught pants down. You are a good example of hypocrisy. In one end you talk about transparency and in the other end you have already convicted a cop based of vide taken from 2km. In one end you talk about democracy and in the other end you justify democratically elected government through a military coup. Then you slip away when caught pants down.
You are nothing more than human refuse despite your bogus public appearance as peace worker. Consider you very lucky to walk like a free man in Sri Lanka.

why did he come here ?
Let's not aim our guns at ambassador Butenis. She looks very outspoken and honest. I think we can have a better relationship with her (than with Blake).
"She describes how she spoke to senior army officers who say they had control throughout the war. One of the dons adds that they probably did, more than in earlier phases in the war. She says she had been told that this time the army may have been managed better.
The conversation shifts to Hilary Clinton’s statement about the army using rape as a weapon of war. “She was given the wrong information. That’s just what it was,” says Butenis. Someone mentions the influence of the Tamil diaspora in the U.S. and when the conversation touches on Raj Rajaratnam’s arrest, she says it was “unfortunate” for Sri Lanka as he was a member of the Tamil diaspora who was willing to work with the Government on reconciliation and reconstruction."
"She then launches into a forthright account of how the system works: “We all have different pressures. Even in the State Department there are different opinions about policy towards Sri Lanka. Even within my own agency. Oh yes! Then you have the different lobbies. Then you have the U.S. Congress. So it is always a balancing act. You know, what are we saying? What are we doing? There are several constituencies in the U.S. influencing. One is the Tamil constituency. That is one. And then there are the other lobby groups. You know when I asked to be considered for this post there was the Senate hearing. The Senate staffers; they are the ones: the formulation committee."

Hi Fellow Bloggers!
We've woken up DW and the statement made herein is far better than statements coming out of the Foreign Ministry or Cabinet spokesmen.
But, there is a news item in SL - Daily Mirror as well as LankaeNews that General Fonseka is being "put under the microscope" by the US Homeland Security. Is the USHS Dept. trying to do a deal with Gen Fonseka? All of us know that Secy. Defense was in NYC to attend UN General Assembly sessions but there was no move on him then. I guess the Secy did a LRRP to the US so that Gen. Fonseka could go in and do wahtever he wanted to do. But this could be a trap and do you think we would see the last of Gen. Fonseka?
I have uneasy feeling in my gut :(
"I have uneasy feeling in my gut :("
this is a very shocking situation
In the first place, with a War Crimes Report hanging in the air, I say that it is utter foolishness to go to the US.
This is one of many indications that GOSL - and I say rather brazenly - is now thinking with their balls. I mean isn't there anybody with an ounce of brain to tell the General that he cannot go? In my mind, both Secy. and the General went against requests made by Uncle Sam. So there is a threat that any of these people could be incarcerated if they step into the US.
But is someone, in this case, trading a horse for a donkey?
government ministers told sarath not to go according to media reports
US wants Fonseka 'to testify against Gotabhaya'
A senior Sri Lankan government source told the BBC that the US Department of Homeland Security wants to interview General Sarath Fonseka on the allegations this Wednesday, and wants him, specifically, to testify against Sri Lanka’s powerful defence secretary, Gotabhaya Rajapaksa.

Sri Lanka is bleeding!
If not for the pressures from the international community, Sri Lanka would not have released even the 50,000 IDP’s recently.
Still screaming wanting peace!!
State terror is substituting the terror of the Tigers!!!
(November 02, Colombo, Sri Lanka Guardian) 18th of November 2009 - the hotheads in the political establishment will be celebrating six months of the victory over the LTTE. It is timely to analyse, why Sri Lanka that heavily invested on the defeat of the LTTE for its future progress is evidently progressing to fail.
The war that was conducted to defeat the evil LTTE was an immoral war. A country that is embedded in the just preaching of Lord Buddha failed to follow his guidance of truthfulness, love and non-violent conduct and sunk into irredeemable guilt that will haunt the country for decades.
Whatever the compulsion for an all out war, the forces should have mitigated themselves from prosecuting an unjust battle on the section of people, leaving aside the brutal LTTE. They should have been guided by the Buddhist Dharma, the rules of the Kurukshtra War of Mahabaratha and also by giving some respect for the modern international covenants Sri Lanka has subscribed to.
Brutality inflicted on the innocent civilians and surrendering enemies horrifies the conscience of the right thinking people who want Sri Lanka to be a self respecting nation giving credence to values. The Army Commander General Sarath Fonseka’s public comment ‘that the military had to overlook the traditional rules of war and even kill LTTE rebels who came to surrender carrying white flags during the war against the LTTE’ is disgusting and has to be the basis for any indictment against Sri Lanka.
The manner in which the LTTE leader Pirabakaran and family members were treated in the Dharmic society is incomprehensible. He should have put to trial and meted with the due process of the Law of the country or the International law.
In his address to the nation following the defeat of the LTTE, the President of Sri Lanka failed to hold him as a national reader. His speech was deeply sunk in the brutal bloody victory and failed to reach all the communities of Sri Lanka. He came out with his new analysis to submerge the deep wounds of the nation by classifying there are only two class of people can be there in Sri Lanka. One is those love the country and the other that hate. What a camouflage to bundle all the section that question the conduct of the government as enemies of the state. The haters include the opposition parties and the minorities in the country. He missed a golden opportunity to reach the cross section of the Sri Lankan’s to join force to arrest the underline crisis affecting the country for far loo long.
Within the past six months, he has failed to speak even about a political resolution to the conflict to educate the people for a broader approach to the crisis facing the country. Even his All Party Representative Committee (APRSL) proposal for a political resolution is held as a dandling carrot to mislead the international community.
Intoxicated with power, the government is on the attacking spree. Anyone questioning its conduct or revealing the hidden facts have come under terrifying attack by its officials. The government had gone beyond all limits to bludgeon anyone irrespective of their status to uphold its terror culture.
If not for the pressures from the international community, Sri Lanka would not have released even the 50,000 IDP’s recently.

"haha...sakkilia"
That's not how you say "bucket" in Sinhala!
Now go out of the class, kneel down in the corridor and write 500 lines "I am a sakkiliya who loves to lick my granmother's cunt (unga aaya kuthi)
hehehe
..continued..
When the European Union put Sri Lanka on notice on the violation of GSP+ agreement well before it engaged in the full scale bloody war, it could have mitigated the annoyance of EU, if it had respected the international laws mentioned in the agreement in its final war. Whilst on notice, it went ahead with its brutal onslaught and response to the damning report is still on hold except for saying it would engage with the EU to redress the situation. What a arrogance after violating the very basics of an important agreement?
It is important to undertake a comparative analysis of the conduct of the Sri Lankan government with the conduct of the LTTE. Mahintha Chinthanaya of the President has been binned and methodology of the LTTE has become the guiding principles of governance in Sri Lanka.
v The LTTE thrived on the fear it imposed on its people by its violent and draconian conduct. This included arbitrary execution, punishment for not towing the line of the LTTE and many more random measures to uphold its control. Is there any difference in the state of affairs of the post war governance in Sri Lanka? Kidnapping, arbitrary killing, silencing the media, preventing the free functioning of the judiciary, marginalising the opposition etc are synonymous to the culture of the LTTE.
v Misusing the state funds and raising funds for political campaign work by threatening businessmen in the Armour St in Colombo is another comparable situation of the LTTE.
v Offering positions to pandangkarayas and marginalising the independent thinkers who make value judgements are the culture of the LTTE that government is practicing heavily.
v Then investing in covert operations in intelligence gathering and targeting individuals is a method pioneered by the LTTE under Pottu. The government of Sri Lanka has heavily invested in establishing sophisticated technological infrastructure to keep the population on tab which is semblance to the LTTE methodology.
Tamil aspiration was the cause of the LTTE and it carried out heinous crimes against the state and its people by espousing this cause and similarly the President of Sri Lanka too is foul playing by not implementing the constitution fully. Failure to implement the 17th amendment and abusing the implementation of the 13th amendment to the constitution incriminates the dishonesty of the government.
v The LTTE survived on the funding by the Tamil Diaspora. The so called legitimate government knowing financial potential of the Tamil diaspora too is on the spree to tout for money post defeat of the LTTE from the Diaspora. Issue of Central Bank bonds targeting the diaspora and inviting them to meet the President and the business leaders are methods followed by the government cream funds.
v The LTTE prevented the media to visit its controlled area and anything allowed were conducted tours. The government too learnt the benefits of preventing the media to the Tamil areas and stage managing it like the LTTE.
The minority issue is the cancer that is literally killing Sri Lanka since independence. It needs transparent and sincere political surgery to arrest the situation for the betterment of the nation.

//All of us know that Secy. Defense was in NYC to attend UN General Assembly sessions but there was no move on him then./
Its said GR's name was in the list who attended UN meeting. So he was on official visit and under diplomatic immunity. And war crimes BS report was not released at that time. SF is on a private visit. I think any GC holder will be interviewed before getting citizenship. Only certain thing here is this is party time for LTTE di-ass-pora.

Ayubowan, my compatriots!
I hope I did not raise a hornets nest. I am peeved and disgusted why our fellow bloggers have to resort to gutter speak when an important topic is discussed.
Chanaka get a life machan without wasting space here, if you do not cease to make a point so that reading is a pleasure.
How many bloggers in the US will do something for the General if he is put into the Sin-Bin for refusing to respond to questions.
I would like to see GOSL recalling our Ambassador and asking Ms. Butenis to take a walk in the Central Park. We, Sri Lankans, do not have to forsake our self respect to the US, anymore.
Chanaka
I am in love with you.

I heard you worked in the circus. Waiting to see you do the sword swallowing trick. How about it mate?
Lol!
Conversation between these two banda boys is rather amusing.
Sam-
I do not wish to be disrespectful, but seriously Sam, when you keep regurgitate the same, its rather tiresome.
Where in my comments did i convict the policeman of the heinous crime?
With respect to my comment vis a vis SF taking overall control, i have no problem if he cleaned up the political hypocrisy, corruption etc that exists in SL at the moment.
Just because you have elections (rigged in most cases) does not mean you have democracy.
Any government is only good to the extent of its accountability. Accountability demands responsibility and ensures citizen protection. Democracy without accountability is totalitarianism. Truth and justice are essentials of democracy
Chanaka Sweetie, would you mind if I call you "Channy" for short? Either way that is what I will utter out, with deep sigh of relief,when the time comes....
hehehe...
