It seems to be a travesty of justice that theƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ Tamil National Alliance (TNA) has been tolerated asƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ Parliamentarian and given any politicalƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ rights in Sri Lanka as these are the very same deadbeats who once openly supported and carried banners for the treacherous terror group the Tamil Tigers until they were destroyed by the Government and the TNA began chirpingƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  different tunes to cover their derrieres. Once the terroristsƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ were put down it appears to haveƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ been a great oversight on the part of the GOSL to have given any leeway to the TNA knowing fully well their track record and thatƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ they would continue to attemptƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ reviving the terror group and it seems plainly visible they are doing exactly this in collusion with the global Tamil diaspora as well as their pals in Tamil NaduƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ as every anti Government manouvre is is co-ordinated post haste by themƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ and their response to the CHOGMƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ is a simple ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ joining of hands with the diaspora whose concerted ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ efforts have spurred on someƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ gullible world leadersƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ and a clear indication of their direction relatively speaking.

It also seems apathetic that the issue ofƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  allegedƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  human rights violations in Sri LankaƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ has been blown so much out of proportion despite the absence of tangible evidence and some world leaders prefer to imbibeƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  in the concoctions of the diaspora con artists whose conflicts of interests and biases stick out in glaring perspective where perhaps it may not be too late to outlaw the TNA and drive them away from the political arena over the singlemost issue of being collaborators with the Tamil Tigers and that they present a danger to the security of Sri LankaƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ where they would probably betterƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ serve some place such as Tamil Nadu for example where their skullduggery, conniving mentalities and the yell for a revival of Eelam would surely be very welcome bearing in mind that in these days and times there is little chance of a Hanuman typeƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ monkey bridge as a likely threat regardless of the extent to which they might regroupƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ !

They could form themselves into a band of deadbeat politicians or a three ring circus if better applicableƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ whilst coralling in other deadbeat clownsƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  such as Jayalalitha, Karunanidhi and Vaiko in a long list of obstreperous, directionless excusesƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  for political leadership displaying their particular brand of flybynight politics sans real political pedigreeƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ or circus showmanship the latterƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ for which they seem to be well suited.

Whatever the case might beƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ their collective actions not only compromise the credibility of their homeland India but alsoƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ the good name of theƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ decent people of Tamil Nadu some of whom want no part of their partisan politics nor the extent to which they attempt (albeit unsuccessfully) to interfere into Sri Lankan matters on an ongoing basis using the lame excuse of sympathy for Sri Lankan Tamils which might asƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ well be sympathies for the devil if one considers the Tamil Tiger perspective which was once led by a demonicƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ sycopath and his putrid idealogies!

It also needs to be mentioned very audibly for the world to know that there are many comfortably settled Tamils in Sri Lanka today who want no part of all the TNA as well as Diaspora shenanigans and have gratefully accepted the Government of Sri Lanka as their mentors and providersƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ while being very thankful for the freedoms restored to them as a community and it seems somewhat perplexing that thereƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  still remain entities and groups with particular emphasis on the TNA,ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ the Tamil diaspora and the clowns in Tamil Nadu in the guise of politicosƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ who regardless of this continue to attempt their ursurpances of what’s good and progressive in Sri Lanka.

Perhaps when aƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ certainƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ M. A. Sumanthiran yesterday defended campaigning in London against Sri Lanka hosting the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM) in Colombo later this year andƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ The TNA has requestedƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ a venue change from Sri Lanka ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ regardless of a previous decision to allow Sri Lanka to host the meeting it is a clear example of the conspiracy involved with no valid reason other than the ongoing labelling of Sri Lanka as human rights violators which the accusers will have a hard time proving.

National List MP Sumanthiran whileƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ criticising the Commonwealth Ministerial Action Group (CMAG) for giving Sri Lanka the honour of hosting the summitƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  has taken the libertyƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ to indulge in unsubstantiable rhetoricƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ about the Government violating Commonwealth doctrine, including Latimar House principles that dealt with the judiciary of member states where he has no privy to his comments relative to Government policy nor the entitlement to comment on issues which appear to be beyond his entitlement as well as mandate as the individual is simply unqualified towards the privilege with neither fact nor statistics to substantiate any of his claims beyond the cacophony of a bucket carrying sycophant of Tamil Nadu and disgruntled Tamil Tiger supportive diaspora perhaps.

TheƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  Sri Lanka AdministrationƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  has responded stronglyƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  against what appears to be an affront to its credibilityƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ thatƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ Sumathiran along with Dr. Pakiasothy Saravanamuttu, overall Coordinator of programmes conducted by Center for Policy Alternatives (CPA) hasƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ campaigned against the CHOGM venue being Colombo.
They haveƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ made representations in London where messers Sumanthiran and Saravanamuttu,ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  the latter an executive director of the CPA have launched a joint campaign in London ahead of Commonwealth Secretary General, Kamalesh SharmaƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s announcement in favour of Sri Lanka.

News sources which have made this publicƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ allege that the UK based Global Tamil Forum (GTF), too, had campaigned alongside the TNA and the CPA where the clear indications of a conspiracy to discredit the Government of Sri Lanka needs no rocket science to percieve and to reiterate, what need is there for the Government of Sri Lanka to tolerate entitities like the TNA who resort to what is blatant treachery as opposed to conducting themselves towards the well being of Sri Lanka?

Nonetheless the Meeting should go on as planned and unimpeded~ placard carrying vociferous demonstrators who may need quelling and containing notwithstanding, as there are more that matter, ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ in agreement with the venue than there are dissentors and a reality that needs to be portrayed to all concerned.

The following excerpt from the connectedƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ news bulletin released lays bare the extent to which these conspirators against the Government of Sri Lanka would go to discredit it and for the distortion of facts , the innuendo and speculative concoctions perhaps needing confrontation as they portray a seriously ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ distorted image of Sri Lanka today simply to uphold their accusations which should be unconditionally trashedƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ and the culprits brought to justice whilst synonymously being challenged to substantiate their accusations with tangible proof, bearing in mind these are grave accusations against a world respected Sovereign Democratic Nation whose unprecedented,ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  victorious campaign to eradicate a global terrorist entity has been acknowledgedƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ and acolladedƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ around the world!

Any collaborating Tamil Tiger Terror friendly members of the Tamil Diaspora should alsoƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ be extended an invitation to join the proceedings and face the music towards an incarceration which will not only be deserving butƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ alsoƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ legitimate!
Quoting~
London based GTF spokesman Suren Surendiran told The Island, before SharmaƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s announcement, that Tamil grouping wanted the change of CHOGM venue from Colombo to Chennai. Surendiran stressed that the GTF would push for Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to skip the Colombo summit.

Sumanthiran said that during his visit to London for some other event he had the opportunity to attend the launch of ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”¹…”A Crisis of Legitimacy: The Impeachment of Chief Justice Bandaranayake and the Erosion of the Rule of Law in Sri LankaƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢, at the House of Lords. “Subsequently, I was invited by the Commonwealth JournalistsƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢ Association for a meeting where contentious issues were raised. I reiterated my position that as Sri Lanka had violated Commonwealth standards, particularly Latimar House principles it shouldnƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢t be given the honour of hosting the summit.”

Asked whether he had campaigned jointly with CPA chief Saravanamuttu against the government, Sumanthiran said that the latter, too, was present at meetings.
The MP politely declined to identify those whom he had met in London. Responding to a query, the TNA rising star said that the issue was the government in spite of failing to address both local and international concerns on accountability issues. The government move to take over thousands of acres in the Jaffna peninsula as well as the Vanni mainland meant that President Mahinda Rajapaksa had no intention of resettling those displaced in their original places of living, the MP alleged. Instead of national reconciliation, the government had been working overtime since the conclusion of the war to strengthen its military position at the expense of Tamil speaking people, the MP said. The bottom line was that the government was reversing national reconciliation process instead of taking meaningful measures to reconcile.” end ofƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ quote where theƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  request of Chennai as an alternate venue and the call for PM manmohan Singh to boycott the Colombo meetingƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ lays bare the most elementaryƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  aspects of what gives rise to the conspiracy theory.There seems little or no reason toƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ doubt thatƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  The TNAƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ And Pro-Eelamist Diaspora Are Singing In UnisonƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  Calling For Venue Change Of CHOGM which points toƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ an Anti GovernmentƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ Conspiracy involved where nothing of any value towards discreditingƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  Sri Lanka seems forthright or plausible beyond the mumbo jumbo of lies, innendo and contradictionsƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ .
