How low can they go…

By Nacholibre

(April 20, Colombo, Sri Lanka Guardian) Newspaper reports reveal that the US administration has had enough of Rajapaksha administration. The former is irked because however much they tried, the latter could not be stopped from successfully destroying Prabakaran and unifying the war-torn country. Many a above ground and subterranean attempt have been made during the last three years, but to no avail, as the Rajapaksha administration continued to enjoy the majority people’s backing and possessed the firm resolve to end Prabakaran’s killing spree. From diplomatic coercing to behind closed door maneuvers to open threats of cutting down aid by the US administration have all gone in vain.

The US diplomacy and underhand coups have brought about nothing substantial for them in stopping the SL armed forces in mid way and save Prabakaran. Robert-O-Blake visits Buddhists temples and pose for photographs with a big grin from one ear to the other and repeats like a parrot that US is a friend of Sri Lanka. What a friend! He goes back to his office room and discusses with Norway how to make an escape route for Prabakaran and his left over terrorist friends. Not stopping that, the latest reports say that Robert-O-Blakes employer, the Obama , has threatened the Rajapaksha administration with the blocking of US$ 1.9 billion IMF relief package. How low can the smiling Robert-O-Blake and his employer go?

The ceasefires bring no civilians out from the safe zone. Yet, once the SL armed forces resume hostage rescue operations and thrash the remaining terrorist resistance points and open up safe passages, the civilians come fleeing the No Fire Zone in thousands. This is the reality of the situation, which bears to the wide world that no ceasefires with the LTTE terrorists will result in any civilian rescue. The US and its allies who pressurize the Rajapaksha administration into declaring ceasefires say in one voice that they want to rescue the civilians. Yet, they are so reluctant to see that the method does not yield the preferred outcome. The only way to get the civilians released is to thrash the terrorists and subdue them and rescue the hapless thousands trapped in the LTTE human shield. Thus, it has been proven beyond doubt that the efforts to have the Rajapaksha administration declare ceasefires are not genuine and it is not at all to get the civilians rescued but to open up enough time gaps for the holed-up LTTE terrorist leaders to escape the SLA onslaught. If Robert-O-Blake and his masters think that the people of this small island are so dumb not to see through their evil masquerades, we can tell them that they are so sadly mistaken.

The US may be thousand times economically, militarily and diplomatically stronger than this small island nation, yet the latter is so much stronger in its people’s resolve to back the current Rajapaksha administration to finish off the LTTE until its last carder will be made to meet his/her maker. That resolve cannot be challenged by any super power by way of closed-door coups and diplomatic threats and shameful liaisons with designated terrorists. We the people decide who should govern this island nation and what type of action the chosen administration should take against the LTTE. Currently, it is nothing but the complete annihilation of the LTTE, and yes, the people are more than 100% certain that our armed forces are more than capable in doing that. No one can now afford to say that it is just wishful thinking, last few years have proved it beyond doubt.

Thus, threats of aid cuts and blocking of financial support by Robert-O-Blakes and their Masters would not bring about their desired results. They cannot change the resolve of the people of this island nation. We should look other places for financial support, if US wants to subdue us that way to give Prabakaran a breather. The military offensives should not be compromised to satisfy the whims and fancies of Robert-O-Blake and his masters. Obama can keep his CHANGE, we will find money somewhere else.
