India And The United Kingdom Need To Support
Sri Lankan Government Policy To Eliminate The LTTE Terrorists Not
Undermine it!

As much as they choose to huff and puff about it, so long as the Prime
Ministers of India and the United Kingdom or any others who decide to
jump on their bandwagon to downcry Sri Lanka's Mlilitary stance against
the LTTE, they are categorically avoiding the terrorist aspect of the
issue in saying unequivocally that there is no military solution plausible
towards settling the conflict in Sri Lanka. In so doing they seem to
be oblivious to the difference between the Freedom Loving Tamil Community
of Sri Lanka and their LTTE terrorist supportive counterparts of no
known direction beneficial to Sri Lanka and therein lies the chagrin
which demarcates messers Singh and Brown as either insensitive to the
key issue or steeped in the vortexes of their imperceptions!
Their elevated status as Prime Ministers of major world powers certainly
does not entitle them to their self righteous opinions with no consideration
to the reality that their comments are being made on an issue relative
to nation destructive criminal minded terrorists who have wreaked havoc
in Sri Lanka for four decades and are now on the verge of elimination
with nowhere to run.What credibility does this afford the Sri Lankan
Armed Forces who have been accolladed by many credible sources and justified
their decision to take out the LTTE being well within the rights of
Sovereign Sri Lanka and acknowledged as doing a great job!
Ironically the LTTE are terrorists whom both India and the United Kingdom
have chosen to outlaw and it seems somewhat ludicrous that the leaders
of these nations in a very unproductive manner conducive to Sri lanka's
well being suggest that a mliitary solution in Sri Lanka is not possible
when everything points towards its success and the Armed Forces are
well on course towards accomplishing the task so why the meddlesome
comments? Especially given the reality that the LTTE have been totally
unrelenting in their criminal ways and how they continue their attrocities
against innocent civilians. It seems high time the blinkers were removed
from the eyes of falsely conscientious objectors and their contentious
remarks muffled towards letting the Sri Lankan Armed Forces get on with
the task while throwing in some logistic as well as armament support
they seem to be constantly hedging about, for good measure and a show
of faith!
It seems almost a proviso of encouragement to the terrorists that such
an obtuse joint statement could be made by these leaders where the danger
of spurring on the terrorists despite their being hammered from all
fronts and showing signs of utter depletion, is a real one where they
are by every definition of the term dangerous terrorists on the run
and an affront to the Government of Sri Lanka which could well do without
what appears to be another litany of delusionary contradictions which
could easily hamper and reverse Sri Lanka's progress towards the future
in a terrorist free environment albeit even hypothetically.
Perhaps messers Manmohan Singh and Gordon Brown are oblivious to the
real picture of what is currently transpiring within Sri Lanka where
their sympathies and dogma would better serve the Nation of Sri Lanka
relative to considerations for its freedom loving citizens particularly
the non-terrorist supportive Tamils who have not mandated the progress
of the terror group and have indicated their revulsion about Velupillai
Prabhakaran's murderers menacing sovereign Sri Lanka! They have done
this in accordance with their perceptions that the Government of Sri
lanka and her armed forces which they recognize as being well on the
way towards liberating the nation from the terrorists are their true
saviour, are on target and that their freedoms in a terrorist free environment
is the only choice feasible towards their well being which could only
be effected through the decisions of the Government rather than the
pretences of the LTTE.
Consequently the eloquence of the Brown/Singh litany condemning a military
solution will be marginalised as emanating from speakers impervious
to the terrorist involvement in Sri Lanka while also being myopic towards
the reality that it is a World Issue where the longer the LTTE are permitted
leeway and tolerated within Sri Lanka the greater would be the danger
to the region as well as the entire world where every nook and cranny
infested by terrorists indicate patterns and modus operandi pioneered
by the LTTE and augmenting alarmingly!
In the joint statement issued on the final day of the UK Prime Minister
Gordon Brown's visit to India, where he and the Indian Premier Manmohan
Singh has urged the Sri Lankan Government to "put forward a credible
devolution package as a key contribution to finding a political settlement".They
have said that the devolution package should be "acceptable to
all communities within the framework of a united Sri Lanka".But
what they have failed to emphasize is that it does not include palavering
and pandering to the mendacious LTTE terrorists who are not a recognized
community within Sri Lanka! Something which may have been an oversight
on their part given their respective national responses to the LTTE
as being worthy of criminal condemnation and hence the political settlement
could only be applicable logically and essentially to a terrorist free
Sri Lanka !
However there is sufficient time for both leaders to either rescind
their statements or correct them to accommodate Sri Lankan Government
Policy towards eliminating the terrorists while rephrasing their recent
criticisms of Sri Lankan Government Policy relative to the LTTE terrorists!
