WHY NOT OUR LEADERS LEARN A LESSON FROM PAST MISTAKES?

Ranjit Wickremeratne

From 1983 we were facing terrorism in our country and so many of our beloved leaders have dead and gone because of this terrible terrorist acts started by a small section of Tamil community.Its high time our forces and our political leaders understand and learn how these terror organization works and do things around our beloved country.

We all know how these murderers plan their deadly murderers acts and how they execute them,by this time our armed forces should be able to understand the terrorists minds because of their experience fighting this terror group for the last twenty three years We cannot be cowed by few murderers like L.T.T.E. Because of their cowardly, murderers, terrorists acts the international community branded them as a terrorist organization.When the whole world label them as terrorists I dont know why only our leaders dosent take any action to ban them in our own soil.

When a small group of our own Sinhalese took arms against the Govt few years back our Sinhala Govt.at that time not only banned the group but kill them in cold blood,torture them and put them behind bars without any mercy. This L.T.T.E killers have killed thousands and thousands of our innocent civillians,Political leaders,PrimeMinisters,Presidents etc.and for the last twenty three years our Sinhala Govt's couldnt bring these killers to justice or destroy them. They come and kill as they please and escape to their territories without getting caught very easily.They move around in our cities,They buy lands in our areas, They open businesses in Sinhala areas, They marry our stupid Sinhalese and take them to their payroll to kill our own.

When our heros in the Inteligence informs the Govt,about their activities and their plans nobody bothers to take notice or care about it,because of that unneccessaraly our poltical leaders and Armed force leaders get killed by these terrorists. If the Govt dosent listen to the peoples voices who cares about our country then many more of our heros will die in vain in the future.

These L.T.T.E. terrorists are trying their best to eliminate as much as possible our political leaders to bring fear to the Sinhala community.We should by all means get united and destroy this enemy as soon as possible if we want to live in peace in our own country.Terrorist is a terrorist whether in our country or anywhere in the world.Daily we can see and hear about mass killings of innocents by these murderers killers all over the world in Iraq,Afganistan.India,Pakistan,Lebnon,Palastine Turkey,Philipines,Indonisia etc.They dont have a colour,Religion,or any human values.They are cowardly inhuman barbarians who likes to see only blood in their hands. What benefit they get by killing innocent humans? Can these terrorists achieve their goals by eliminating others just for the sake of eliminating? Instead of discussing their grievences thru dialogue they go on killing innocent people.Nobody can solve any problem by killing each other.

The only way to stop this carnage is to talk,but the problem is this L.T.T.E demands so many things from the Sinhala Govt. Our leaders should not be afraid to talk their mind and to give a strong answer to their unjust demands.L.T.T E.is not the only party to represent the Tamil community.Its a banned group and the majority of the Tamils dosent agree for their behaviour and the way they run the affairs of the Tamil community.They have killed thousands of their own community and their leaders in the past.Only way we can have peace is to banned this murderers group and start talking to moderate Tamil leaders who genuinely wants real peace with the Sinhalese.If we do that we can have a good future and to do that we need a strong leader who can face this enemy face to face without fear.When the International community can bring very powerful past leaders around the world to face justice for crimes against humanity then why not Prabakaran the leader of the L.T.T.E terrorist organization who is wanted by us and India for killing so many innocents be brought to justice in the world court? The world community must help us to get him before he does more harm to our small nation.

Our Govt.under the present leadership of his excellency Mahinda Rajapaksa must not follow the past leaders and their peace treaties and drag this on and on.The Govt on behalf of the Sinhala population and the rest of other communities who wants to live in peace must have a genuine plan and a strong will to end this death and destructions.We need to diciplined our forces,get rid of traitors and equiped them with latest war machines.Need to give full protection to all our leaders irrespective of party or colour as these murderers are trying their best to get rid of them one by one.Police and our Inteligence should act immedietly when they get any informations regarding any terrorist activities anywhere in the country.Our police is unable to catch L.T.T.E. terrorists until they vanished to thin air after the crime but they can catch innocent civillians and torture them.The Govt.must take action against the individuals who dosent do their duty properly and bring them to justice.

The Govt should listen to the majority of the people always as they are the the ones who sends them to the parliament. After the suicide bombing in the heart of colombo to kill the Army General nobody took any precautions to safeguard other leading personalities and our inteligence never learn lessons from the past mistakes by allowing outsiders to come to the Army headquarters as they please without checking properly.They come and kill in our doorstep and our Sinhalese cannot catch these criminals as they themselves helps these murderers sometimes to do these heronic crimes. Now we hear that so many of these murderers have come to Homagama,Panagoda areas to eliminate more of our Sinhala heros.So what action the Govt.has taken to protect our leaders and what action they have taken to prevent such killings by these criminal terrorists? Who is giving sanctuary to these peoples?

Why our Sinhala population cannot understand the grave situation we are in today? Why the public dosent help to catch these murderers? Is the terrorists blood money more valuable than your own country of birth? Why our Sinhala nation cannot come together as one to solve this number one prioity in the country? This is the best time to push the L.T.T.E in to a corner as the whole world and their own community is against them because of their brutal activities.We cannot allow one uneducated short legged terrorsit to dictate us all the time.He threaten us like he is the Bin Laden of Sri Lanka.Why we Sinhalese are afraid of his threats and ultimatums?Civilized world dosent listen to terrorists and traitors.Terrorists cannot rule countries as they have blood in their hands,if they want then they must stop violence and sit down to talk.See what happened in Ireland,Spain,East Timor,Nepal,Colombia,the most feared terrorists groups have put their guns down and start talking for peace,because they all want to live like human beings.So its high time L.T.T.E too follow their counterparts in these countries and come forward as peace partners to bring real peace to our nation.

We have been suffering a lot due to these terror activities in the country for so long and we expect our Govt.of His excellency Mahinda Rajapaksa will do something concrete to enable us live in peace and harmony without any bomb blasts here and there.For kidnapping two of their soldiers see what Isreal is doing to Lebnon nation? Do they listen to the world opinion? Why then we are afraid when these L.T.T.E killers kills our innocents in thousands? Why dont we bomb their illegal bases,airports,sea ports of L.T.T.E in our own soil? Whom we are afarid of? Isnt our country independent and sovereign country? When we have the right and the will power why we just ignore all these? By staying idle arent we allow these terrorists to build more and more bases and do all sorts of illegal things in our own country? Are we watching till they take inch by inch of our land and divide in to two pieces?

If we dont stop now when can we stop them,I like to know as a citizen of this country? If we allow this Govt,too to drag this on my dear Sinhala people dont ever expect a day will come to free our beloved country I am sure of that.Only hope is this current president,but he cannot solve this alone,he needs the cooperation of the whole peace loving citizens of this country otherwise he too will be a failier in his attempt to bring peace to our motherland.So for our future generations sake make a decision of your lifetime and try to bring peace to the country yours and mine.

Dont allow the killers comes to our doorstep,lets go to their doorstep and destroy them before they destroy us.Be strong and be vigilant if we want to safeguard our country.If not for our Maha Sanga, J.V.P, and all the citizens who really loves the country( not traitors) was not there then our country would have been in these terrorists hands by now. We saw what all the past leaders and Govt's did in the pretext of peace.If we were strong and wanted to finish this rebellion we would have done that long time ago,but unfortunately our political leaders didnt do anything to stop this terrorists until they massacre most of our political leaders and civillians in cold blood.From 1983 every Govt called them our brothers and did nothing until they become a force to recon with.Now we see a difference attitude in this Govt.better than previous governments.I hope we can see an end to this death and destructions before long under the present President's Govt.Day by day the killings are going on and our innocents have to pay the price because of no will power on both sides to come to a conclusion to end this violence.

Day by day death total is rising on our side and still I cannot see anything done to prevent these killings or our armed forces going after them and destroy them.What is the peace we are talking about when the killings going on and on? every time they kill our heros they have an excuse and they tell the whole world to hear that Sinhala Govt.is killing innocent Tamils.Is this true? They kill and tell lies and lies and what are the counter measures we have taken to prove its not true what they are saying? When they attack and kill as they please why not our forces retaliate at once and destroy them? How long we are going to restraint and watch while they carry on killing our innocents? How many dead bodies are coming back to their loved ones and how long they can suffer like this? Are there any peace coming in the horizon to our beautiful land? Mr.President have to discuss with all political leaders,Armed forces,Maha Sanga and leading civillian leaders of all faiths to have a concrete plan,then arrange a face to face talk with the L.T.T.E terror organization if you like rather than talking to moderate Tamils who oppose this brutal terror organization to end this violence and have a peaceful life to all our citizens

If they dont agree to our conditions as we are the majority population as a responsible Govt.President should take a stern action to finish off this terror organization how much they looks strong. We have a strong armed forces and our lads ready and willing if given the word to go and crush this cold blooded killer organization for the good of our peoples on both sides.L.T.T.E is very weak at this moment as the international community and most of their own Tamil population are against them because of their cowardly acts and cold blooded murders. If we act now without listning to outsiders We can bring this violence to an end,but needs all parties to be united as one to face the threat.We hope our dear President will do something good to the country before its too late.To be restaraint for long is very difficult when we see our heros come home in coffins in hundreds day by day,therefore Govt.should take immediate action to make the Sinhala population happy by doing something miracle to end this unjust war. Stop talking peace in other countries its a wastage of time and money

.If our Govt have the will power then no need to go here and there or any outsiders to intervene in our affairs,because we have good talented highly qualified individuals who can be helpful to the Govt.in the peace process.For the sake of our peoples just try once together with political,Civillian,Armed forces,Maha Sanga to end the violence once and for all for all of our citizens to live in a free society without any terrorist related violence,other crimes,corruptions,etc Let us live in Peace as one nation.Killings will not take any country anywhere except misery,tears and destruction.May God helps us both sides to live in peace side by side as one happy family.

Best Regards,

Ranjit Wickremeratne
