There are some strange limits and inexplicable exceptions to the so-called ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”¹…”Freedom of ExpressionƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢ and Media Freedom concepts globally promoted by the US and the rest of the Western world. One notable prohibition relates to the use of the word ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”¹…”conspiracyƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢, defined as ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”¹…”an agreement to perform together an illegal, wrongful, or subversive actƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢. The use of this particular word is virtually censored, and anyone who dares to suggest even the mere possibility of the existence of any such phenomenon is ridiculed, and is subjected to various forms of harassment. Some in the developing world including the fighters for these ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”¹…”freedomsƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢ also appear to adopt this same attitude and practices.

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ The reaction of the foreign agents in Sri Lanka and their mouthpieces like ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”¹…”The Sunday LeaderƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢ appear to be aghast that the patriot assume, and are talking about the existence of such a conspiracy. They seem to be unable or unwilling to see the evidence. It is now known that throughout history, most common people in the West have been oblivious to various conspiracies perpetrated upon them by the merchant and political classes. Only those who have gained access to the inner workings of the so-called democracies, usually at the highest level, have been able to witness and understand such conspiracies.

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ There are several clear examples. Benjamin Disraeli, the first Prime Minister of England wrote in the novel Coningsby, published in 1844, that “The world is governed by very different personages from what is imagined by those who are not behind the scenes.”

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ Woodrow Wilson, the 28th President of the United States wrote in The New Freedom (1913), ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-Some of the biggest men in the United States, in the field of commerce and manufacture, are afraid of something. They know that there is a power somewhere so organized, so subtle, so watchful, so interlocked, so complete, so pervasive, that they better not speak above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it.”

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ John F. Kennedy, during a speech at Columbia University just 10 days before his assassination declared that “The high office of President has been used to foment a plot to destroy the Americans’ freedom, and before I leave office I must inform the citizen of his plight.”

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ Former President Bill Clinton said on NBC’s “Meet the PressƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚ interview as recently as Sept 27, 2009 that ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-The vast right-wing conspiracyƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚ that attacked him during his presidency continues to operate against President Obama.

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ The glaring inconsistencies in the cunningly constructed Western propaganda on their avowedly ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”¹…”superiorƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢ moral and humane value system they are attempting to impose on the world also point to the existence of conspiracies.

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ Incomprehensibly, the Western love for ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”¹…”freedom of expressionƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢ ends when issues such as the duplicitous financing of the world wars, or the numbers (claimed to have been) killed in concentration camps, or the German civilians killed by Churchill in Dresden, after the war ended, are brought to surface.

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ People such as the British historian David Irwin and the Australian holocaust denier Fredrik Toben were jailed in Germany for questioning such issues. Just last year, the perfectly decent and honest British parliamentarian George Galloway was denied a visa to enter Canada due to his views. But the same people ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”¹…”cry riversƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢ for the Sri Lankan Tissenayagam who was jailed following a full and complete due process.

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ This is the context in which the present international campaign (aided and abetted by local agents) against Sri Lanka and its much- beloved President and the defence leadership needs to be looked at. The pattern clearly points, at least to those who are familiar with the intricacies of Western machinations, that there clearly is a conspiracy being perpetrated by a number of international and local groups with vested interests.

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ Just six months after the demise of the murderous LTTE and Prabhakaran, they are furiously cranking up a venomous anti-Sri Lankan campaign. Part of the motivation comes from the Zionist controlled global media coterieƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s search for ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”¹…”trouble spotsƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢ away from Palestine to divert attention from the continuing illegal settlement process in the occupied territories, despite President ObamaƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”¹…”pleasƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢. Another key imperative of the same forces is to buy time for plotting an attack on Iran.

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ The international conspirators are being led and financed by Eric SolƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢heimƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢ and others of his clique in Europe and the US. Apparently Kouchner and Milliband want to visit us, without wearing the ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”¹…”yarmulkeƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢ of course! That Human Rights expert at the UN, the highly paid-do nothing Aussie ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”¹…”as flash as a rat with a gold toothƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢, Philip Alstone has not stopped whinging either. Then we have Jeremy ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”¹…”AirportƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢ Page of The Times UK carrying on from somewhere in India about the Sri Lankan army shooting ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”¹…”fleeingƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢ refugees. He is obviously still smarting!

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ The US clique of conspirators also prostituted their illegitimate domestic organ known as the ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”¹…”Office of War Crimes IssuesƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢ to ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”¹…”studyƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢ and report to Hillary Clinton, who relied on Tiger financing for her failed presidential campaign, on Sri Lanka. Ironically, the worst punishment they can mete out is to ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-prohibit certain forms of financial support to Sri LankaƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚. Most people would think that they rely on international aid for survival as much as any other country in the world and we could get China to stop aid to the US!

Meanwhile, Hilary ClintonƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s foreign policy is all over the place! This week she criticised African leaders who continued to support the Sudanese President Bashir instead of helping the US to bring him to justice on account of ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-his behaviour outside the accepted boundsƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚. At the same time she is crawling to Burma ostensibly because Burma is important for their policy of ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”¹…”encirclementƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢ of China!

The US group undertook the Sri Lankan project among their more important domestic business of running a parallel administration to that of President ObamaƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s. They began undermining him since his speech in Egypt in June, due to its conciliatory nature towards Muslims, and his attempts to show some sense to that arrogant Lithuanian extremist Benjamin Netanyahu. Now they are trying to block ObamaƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s honourable efforts to revamp the US health system that represents a disgraceful Human Rights violation of the Afro-Americans and poor Whites in America.

The ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”¹…”white noiseƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢ is being echoed by local collaborators ranging from desperados like Ranil Wickremesinghe and Mangala Samaraweera, and US dollar-craving NGO wallahs such as Kumar Rupesinghe, Paikiasothy Saravanamuttu and Jehan Perera. The JVP leader Somawansa Amarasinghe also seems to be tagging along, just for the ride!

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ Ranil Wickremesinghe who is merely a political carcass without any prospects of winning a democratically held election, is probably hoping for an arrangement like the one the US orchestrated in the Honduras. He has recently complained about lack of economic development in the country, despite the end of the war. This foreign puppet who has plagued the UNP and Sri Lankan politics in senior leadership positions for over 30 years, symbolising incompetence and achieving nothing for his party or the country, expects the present government to turn around the economy in just six months from the end of the war!

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ This gutless wonder has found a ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”¹…”partnerƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢ in another desperado, Mangala Samaraweera who, has recently invoked 1984 and George Orwell to describe the civil rights situation and media freedom in Sri Lanka! This brain-washed nonentity is clearly unable to see that it is the conspiracies of the type his Western masters are hatching the world over is what Orwell was referring to.

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ The government needs to maintain the current path it is pursuing, of securing the country to provide a stable environment for economic development. The resettlement of IDPs remains an issue, but the foreigners should not be allowed to set the pace of the process. Their motive of letting out LTTE operatives should be frustrated at all costs.

ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ The President and the government has the love and support of the Sri Lankan people. That is what matters.
