ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ While it isƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ more than likely at all the finger pointing at Sri Lanka over the alleged Human Rights violations during the Country’s Armed Forces campaign of almost three decades to put down the internal armed insurrection of the Tamil TigersƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ will never bring down Sri Lanka,ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ the amazing persistence of those who continue to discredit the Island Nation will take a long time to subside. Why? because of the bipartisan support given to them by countries who not only maintain a double standard in outlawing the Tamil Tigers yet lend an ear to thoseƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ who are visibly the mouthpieces of the deposed Tamil Tigers and continue toƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ create a worldwide scenario tantampunt to cheap sensationalism and nothing more!ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚
ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ No hard evidence or cold provable facts except doctored videos, fake depositions and apathetic sobs stories of incredible sympathy pitch swallowed hook line and sinker by countries like Canada, the USA, Britain and Australia and the blinkered Ban Ki Moon led UN,ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ despite expert opinion that all these are false,ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ hold no tangible credibility and inadmissable in an international court of law.
ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ Here then again in favour ofƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ the Government of Sri Lanka ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ is another remarkable presentation of facts which once again point to howƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ despite relentless insistence by Sri Lanka’s aforementionedƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ tormentors at international level there are very credible reasons to quash and trash all the accusations against Sri Lanka where theirƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ repudiationsƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ by the Government of Sri lanka(GOSL) holds greater credibility towards the justification of the manner in which the insurrection was dealt with officially from a Sri Lankan perspective. It then becomes a harsh reality that undoubtedlyƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ it isƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ the Tamil Tigers and their supportives globally who bear the greater responsibility towards any Human Rights Violations as it is their financial and logistic support of vast proportions in a huge global networkƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ that made the task of defeating the terrorists that muchƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ more difficult for the GOSL whose efforts need to be commended, acolladed and celebrated rather than criticised and attacked by those who have the affront to do so where there is a farƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ greater quotient of support for Sri Lanka than negative criticism or accusationsƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ in how in a precedent creating manner they eliminated globally dangerous terroristsƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ !
ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ Excerpts from this recent Sunday Observer reportƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ of the 29th October by Dinesh Weerawansa reporting from Perth Australia under the caption ofƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ ” Jegatheeswaran confesses, ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”¹…”IƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢m an LTTE sympathiser” once again highlights the importance of accepting Sri Lanka’s campaign to eliminate Tamil Tiger ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ terrorism as a legitimate one which needs no impediments by way of innuendos, lies, fabricated evidence and the like and attribute everything evil, malefecient and mendacious with vicious intentƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ to destroy the Sinhala Nation, toƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ the Tamil Tigers and their ambitious Tamill supportivesƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ who were an axis of evil in Sri Lanka where there is no getting behind the fact and to question how it was eliminated with no real evidence beyond speculation and the graphicƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ creations of experts in the field, not for countries like Canada, the USA, Britain and Australia toƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ be insistebt aboutƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ unless they have first hand, tangible and unquestionableƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ evidence of their own which they don’t and never will have asƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ these simply do not exist !
ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ “Arunachalam Jegatheeswaran, the man who accused Sri Lanka of war crimes allegations and filed a case in the Melbourne MagistrateƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s Court last week to sling mud at his native country during the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM) in Perth, one of many who continue to attempt discrediting the Government of Sri Lanka in the eyes of the worldƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ has eventually admitted that he is an LTTE sympathiser.
ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚
The intention of Jegatheeswaran alias Jegan Waran, who has obtained Australian citizenship, is now crystal clear following his own confession that he is a Tiger sympathiser.
His confession has come days after Colombo accused him of being a ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-terror activistƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚ and an LTTE sympathiser who helped the terrorist group build underground weaponsƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢ depots. However, JegatheeswaranƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ who has contradicted his own statement when he denied allegations that he had assisted the LTTE in any way does not seem to have much ground to stand on regarding his credibilities beyond being a blatant liar whose transparencies are being exposed through his own confused mindset and a failed attempt at being devious.
ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚
And now that his charges have been quashed by Attorney-General Robert McClelland on Tuesday, on the grounds that President Mahinda Rajapaksa enjoys diplomatic immunity, regarding the demands by certainƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ misguided expatriate Sri Lankan Tamils,ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ Jegatheeswaran is coming out with a different confession.
ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚
JegatheeswaranƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ has admittedlyƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ related many concocted stories to discredit Sri Lanka on the eve of the CHOGM but the efforts of the sympathisers of the now defunct terrorist outfit LTTE hasƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ failed to attract even 50 people for FridayƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s demonstration, that too after free return air tickets were offered apart from accommodation in Perth for Tiger activists residing in Sydney and Melbourne. Jegatheeswaran claims that he had worked in the North as a ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-freelance volunteerƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚ from February 2007 – May 2009, when the Security Forces were engaged in the humanitarian operation to rescue nearly half a million people from the jaws of LTTE terror. A point which needs to be noted for the case to exonerate from all ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ accusations,ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ the Sri Lankan Armed Forces coming from a Tamil Tiger Sympathiser himself! The true reports by eyewitnesses and clear cut evidenceƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ have always pointed towards the superhuman effort the Armed Forces were involved in towards rescuing and taking to safety the innocent civilians fleeing from a murderous LTTE pursuing them and butchering them at random !
It has now been revealed remarkablyƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ that Jegatheeswaran had been ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-a committed LTTE militant, who was well connected to the Tiger hierarchyƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚ where his conflicts of interest relative to the case he is said to have initiated becomes quite apparent
ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚
It was also disclosed that Jegatheeswaran had been handpicked by LTTE leader Velupillai Prabhakaran to escort his family to safety in the final stages of the battle against terrorism. Jegatheeswaran had reportedly used his technical expertise to build military infrastructure for the LTTE. Though he denies such allegations, Jegatheeswaran had contradicted his own statements when he told The Australian that he ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-had seen PrabhakaranƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s parents in the conflict zone at the end of the warƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚.
JegatheeswaranƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s going to courts on alleged war crimes allegations was nothing new as LTTE sympathisers and former terrorist activists had made similar attempts in various countries to discredit Sri Lanka and mislead the international community. A similar attempt was made in New York prior to last monthƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s United Nations General Assembly by Tiger activists, including the wife of Ramesh, the former LTTE leader for the East. “
ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚
One of many instances where a disgruntled Tamil with sympathies for the Tamil Tigers and part of a huge global comglomerate of terror activists who have not given up their relentless campaign to discredit the Government of Sri Lanka,ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ the very essence of the varied created scenarios being enacted around the globe and lapped up as legitimate and credible by the few countries whose remarkable incapacity to accept the realities of what really transpired obviously hinged to their responses to Tamil Tiger sympathy and the wily manner in which it is presented whichƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ either seems irresponsible or deliberately orchestrated to suit their own needs and agendas.
ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚
In the meantime despite all the adversities Sri Lanka seems to be marchingƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ on undauntedƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ with renewed strength from those who support her and the Administration making great inroadsƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ towards a progress and development which was was once thought impossible where the elimination of the Tamil Tigers was the key factor towards accomplishing this as agreed upon even by middle of the road Tamils who want no part of Tamil Tiger terrorism or the concept of Eelam.
And the sooner the world realises this in unison with Sri Lanka’s Adminstrators and her incredibly resilient populaceƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ the better it will be for all concerned!.
