TULF leader joins TNA: the ‘moderate’ shows his true colours

There was a time when many Sinhala politicians were embracing Mr Anandasangaree: he was described as a moderate Tamil leader, obviously in contrast to the ITAK and the Tamil National Alliance (TNA) that took ITAK under its wing. The TULF leader, additionally, was projected to all and sundry as one who was a critic of the LTTE, the godfather of TNA, as well as of the TNA itself, when the LTTE called the shots.
But what does Anandasangaree do today, according to media reports dated 22 July? Now that the valiant armed forces of Sri Lanka have got rid of the Sri Lanka-based armed wing of the LTTE, allowing the average Sri Lankan, as well as the TULF leader and the TNA politicians led by Sampanthan to go about engaged in political activities in the North, he has no qualms about sleeping with the extremist anti-Sri Lanka TNA.
Sri Lanka was extricated from the three decade-old terrorist curse through the sacrifices made by the young men and women from rural Sri Lanka. The President has said that the highest proportion of members of the armed forces originated from the North Western Province.
No room should be left for anyone ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢¢”š¬…” a moderateƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢ turned extremist, die hard anti-Sri Lankans or a retired supreme court judge from any community, Tamil or otherwise – to drag Sri Lanka back to the morass for which Sri Lanka paid a heavy price. Complacency would be an insult to the members of the armed forces who sacrificed life and limb to deliver peace that all communities and religious groups enjoy today.

Isn’t it OBVIOUS?
This Anandasanagree was one of the terrorists who took part in the Vada-kundi resolution.
As I always say, Tamil MODA-RATES are more dangerous than extremists.
Tamil MODA-RATES are terrorist sleeper cells waiting for the chance to attack. Getting rid of them early in the piece is the right thing to do.
SL Tamil PATRIOTS are a different group of people. They are NOT MODA-RATES. They are CLEAR SL supporters.

Anandasangaree is another Greedy, Super-senior politician. He is not stepping down because Sri Lankan politics is very juicy for politicians. So, they hang on to that.
Just imagine, just by exploiting voters he get a good salary, office, luxury vehicle and many other perks.

From early days I knew this was a snake in the grass. The mistake the President did was to Protect and feed this serpant without letting the sungoat eliminate this future problem. So now kanawo…kanawo.
