LTTE Killing Fields in Sri Lanka

An array of rich nations and the Tamil terrorists operating from beyond Sri LankaƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s shores, who financed the entire military operation against the sovereign nation of Sri Lanka, are all out to denigrate the country at every conceivable opportunity and at every international forum. Any amount of facts will not deter them to accept what really happened ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢¢”š¬…” Sri LankaƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s armed forces destroyed a ruthless bunch of terrorists an ushered in peace after 30 long years ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢¢”š¬…” and all that these individuals and groups see is the ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”¹…”killing of innocent Tamil civilians, genocide of Tamils and human rights violationsƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢.
The video named “Sri Lanka’s Killing Fields” that was broadcast by Channel 4 in June 2011, was embraced with aplomb by every anti-Sri Lankan Tom, Dick and Harry, and was displayed at all types of gatherings that the anti-Sri Lanka groups had organised. The fact that many of the images had been doctored, as was clearly shown by experts in video technology, never ever received any consideration. Images of a group of fair-skinned naked individuals being shot by those in khaki uniforms, with no discernible evidence whatsoever as to where the event took place, was accepted as the Gospel truth by all except the genuine Sri Lanka lovers.
The new video of Channel 4 is clearly of the same caliber as the one before, and not surprisingly, is timed to coincide with the UN Human Rights sessions due in Geneva in March 2013. It is hard to believe that Channel 4 or the people who possessed such an ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”¹…”authenticƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢ recording of the evidence of the Sri Lankan armed forces killing PirabhaharanƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s son kept quiet since 19th May until today, when they had such a golden opportunity and ammunition to negate whatever the Sri Lankan government said in its defence.
The reply that the Ministry of Defence gave Channel 4ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s 2011 Killing Fields was admirable. The images and the narrative effectively debunked the lies that were portrayed by Channel 4. Minoli Ratnayake gave an enticing and professional narration to accompany the visuals. The writer only wishes the title of the video was something to match what John Snow of Channel 4 had used in his profound lieƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚: instead of ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-Lies agreed uponƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚, it could have been something like ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-LTTEƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s Killing Fields in Sri LankaƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚, ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-Killing Fields in Sri Lanka: LTTE were mastersƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚ or something to that effect.
The adroit use of the expression killing fields by Channel 4 gave Sri Lanka bashers a head start, as many who knew nothing of what happened in Sri Lanka would easily associate the events in the island nation with those that occurred in Cambodia during 1975 to 1979 when many civilians died, amounting to nearly 1.5 million executed out of 2.5 million who perished, when the Khmer RougeƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ regime held power in the country.

The Tamil terrorist “killing Fields in Sri Lanka” certainly extended to every nook and corner of SriLanka and wasnt confined only to armed conflict zones. This is why the LTTE terrorists were able to massacre innocent civilians at Sri MahaBodiya, Dalada Maligawa, Arantalawa, Colombo Central Bank, and many many other places in SriLanka.
BBC Ch4 and others who are now trying to distort facts and forget the Tamil Terrorist Killing Fields in SrLanka, are guilty of moral support given to the terrorists.

I think definitely and primarily it is the US,UK,EU,Canada, Australia, Norway and HRW, Amnesty International and the likes of Channel 4, Independent et. al. it is they who are primarily against Sri Lanka. The LTTE supporters in the west are secondary and are actually a useful tool for the US,UK,EU,Canada and co. This has been sadly very clear for a very long time now.
However as a Sri Lankan I am very glad we have peace in Sri Lanka between the sinhala and tamil people and we are living in harmony now. The US,UK,EU,Canada club does not like that. They don’t want the sinhala, tamil,muslim peoples unity and will do anything to destroy the present prevailing harmony in the country and are trying everything to destroy the peaceful environment in the country. The US,UK,EU,Canadas behaviour proves this beyond any doubt. It is all about divide and rule for them.
Yes it is high time the Sri Lankan govt countered this bullshit, its getting tiresome this UNHRC bullshit meetings to haul Sri Lanka up for this or that trumped up charges.
