Rt. Rev. Thomas Saundranayagam - do not desecrate the Catholic Church and the Vatican for your Eelam dreams.

- L.A. Peiris

Rev. Saundranayagam, two decades of your missions to Wanni, has been in vain. The International Community have got nothing to do with the internal investigation on the disappearance of Rev. Fr. Jim Brown, or other Sri Lankan citizens? Hundreds of people disappear in various parts of the world, including western countries. The IC does not get involved with these investigations as it is not in their jurisdiction. An investigation is not carried out by one CID officer. He/she, does not need a working knowledge of Tamil and English, to work in Sri Lanka. British Officers, do not learn Tamil, Hindi or Punjabi to work in the UK even in areas with large migrant communities. They speak in their National language, English.

The Jaffna Bishop Rt. Rev. Dr. Thomas Savundranayagam, speaking to the media in Ki'linochchi further said that "Peace cannot be achieved in Sri Lanka by military means, and any attempts to find a solution by such methods will only end up further aggravating the sufferings of the people." [TamilNet, 03 December 2007]

Thomas Savundranayagam, is your doctorate in Christian Theology or on Military Strategy or Operations? Let government and Military experts decide the military options. Everyone is aware of the sufferings of the Sri Lankan people, for the past two decades. Tamil People, have been held subjugated, Tamil intellectuals have been murdered, underage Tamil children, have been abducted and forced to war front by LTTE terrorists vermin, what have so called leaders like you done to solve these issues. You have done absolutely nothing except give support to LTTE terrorists, and their propaganda. Your mission to Wanni, should be to advice the murderer, that his day of reckoning is near and perform the last rites, for the devil himself.

Your meeting with the Liberation Tigers Political Head B. Nadesan, is not going to achieve anything. He is just a stooge of the maniac Prabakaran, a non-entity. If not for the funds illegally accumulated through the LTTE, he would be someone’s gate keeper or security guard. Ask yourself, how a man without a proper job, upkeep his family in a western country? [On the pension of a constable or have you got CARITAS to subscribe to this!]

You are a member of "The Commission for Justice and Peace of Diocese of Jaffna, and you are tasked to inform to the Sri Lanka Government, which you have done very vocally. "The A9 highway has to be reopened for the use of people of Jaffna and only then people can live there," he said. "It is almost two years since the land route for Jaffna was closed, and as a result the daily life of the people in the peninsula have become very difficult. Peninsula residents are facing severe hardships. Their sufferings are increasing daily with no end in sight. [TamilNet, 03 December 2007]

The GOSL, is dealing with a bunch of cyanide neck laced suicide bombing terrorist murderers, led by a maniac psychopath. It is the right, of President Mahinda Rajapaksa and his government to take whatever action necessary to safeguard the well being of the people and uphold the integrity of the nation.

You have said that “Only Sri Lanka Freedom Party (SLFP) has proposed a solution which is 15 years old. No one can accept that kind of proposals. The Bishops too have not accepted it. [TamilNet, 03 December 2007]. “The Bishops too have not accepted it.” Which Bishops? Only the Tamil Bishops, however they accept the ISGA proposals of LTTE terrorists.

The Bishop’s and other Tamil Community leaders should propose some form of solution for the problems faced by Tamil community, without generalising it as aspirations of the Tamil people, within the parameters of the Unitary state and the integrity of Sri Lanka. The division of the country on ethnic representation, the enjoining of provinces to strengthen communal representation, the security, the judiciary, geological and other resources, Immigration, Emigration and Foreign Affairs of the nation are non-negotiable. The Government of Mahinda Rajapaksa, can then analyse, point out drawbacks to your proposals and provide opinion as to whether it is an appropriate solution to solve the ethnic conflict, with the consent of the political parties in the south.

Can Savundranayagam, guarantee the safety of everyone using the A9 road, without any interference from the bunch of LTTE terrorists, manning road blocks, searches and levying illegal Tax. No terrorist has the right or jurisdiction to search any Sri Lankan, [Sinhala, Tamil, Muslim or other community] or levy any tax. The government would reopen the A9 highway for the use of people who live there, so that they can enjoy the same freedom Tamils in the South enjoy, on other roads in Sri Lanka.

“When the representative of Vatican, Apostolic Nuncio Archbishop Mario Zenari talked to me last week, he asked from me about the plight of Jaffna Tamils and the various incidents of civilians dying of air attacks by Kfir jets. I explained everything to him in great detail and he expressed his desire to see everything in person”. [TamilNet, 03 December 2007].

Did you explain everything, the planning, the last meal with a murderer, in great detail to the Apostolic Nuncio Archbishop Mario Zenari, to the various incidents of civilians, [Colombo, Nugegoda] mercilessly murdered by women suicide bombers? About the underage Tamil children abducted by your LTTE friends for their terror activities. How you hear their confessions, pardon their sins, give absolution, and bless their souls!!!

Saundranayagam, do not drag the Catholic Church and the Vatican, into this ethnic conflict. The President of Sri Lanka and his representatives treat you [catholic church and clerical robe] with respect and listen to what you say, out of curtsey and good relationship that has always existed between the government and the Catholic Church. They cannot implement anything in the interest of a few misguided Tamil clerics like you supporting suicide bombing terrorists and Eelam. Saundranayagam, this, conflict would end tomorrow, if you and other Tamil clergy are honest and openly declare your opposition to ‘Eealm’ Tamil terrorists and terrorism, from the pulpits of the Jaffna diocese.

Finally Rt. Rev. Thomas Saundranayagam, please do everyone a favour by addressing your Christmas message and advice for this year, to the megalomaniac and his LTTE terrorists requesting them to stop terrorist activities and lay down their weapons if peace talks are to resume. Pray and bless the armed forces personnel, risking their lives, in safeguarding the lives of their fellow human beings and the integrity of mother Lanka, the land of our birth from the atrocities of LTTE terrorists and terrorism.
