Isn’t he supposed to be an “independent election observer”? Or, a “watchdog of political corruption”? Oh come-on! I start to doubt the word “Independent” now a days. Who’s next? May be Sanjana Hattotuwa. Or Dinindu De Alwis? How about Uvindu Kurukulasooriya?
When we pointed that CAFÉ and Corruption Watch are primarily motivated by the UNP’s political agenda, some people turned those claims down as “mud slinging at independent election observers”. Now we see who’s Café was Shiran Lakthilake running all these years! We can imagine how “independently” they reported the election violence in the past elections. These morons start all these “independent” agencies backed by someone else’s political will and funded by some other party’s money. I’m more and more inquisitive to know who’s actually paying the server bills of groundviews.org :-) If we dig deeper; the routes may now go down to depths no one would ever imagine.
And I feel sorry about those of you, who still can’t see this same pattern with people like Dinindu De Alwis or Sanjana Hattotuwa. Some half baked kimbula banis heads preach us that “there’s no point of bowling at the fielding side”. They think if the UNP comes to power someday, Groundviews will still continue to be critical about their government. They believe that papers like Sunday Leader will continue to probe into government corruption. And they further believe that NGO’s like FMM, CPA, or CAFÉ will continue to watch out for the rights of the civil society “independently” (Independent; according to their judgments).
But they never realize that; actually these NGO’s and Newspapers like Sunday Leader are just “tools” of bringing back a UNP government. Let us see why. Did we have any of these NGO’s before 1994? No. We never had this type of NGO’s in our history; not to mention about the 17 years regime of the UNP from 1977-1994. Then why these NGO’s and News Papers like Sunday Leader started only after 1994? Why are they very much more motivated after 2005? Why don’t Groundviews dedicate a special space on their home page to remember the innocent Sri Lankan civilians died with LTTE attachs? Why do they only remember the “ant-Tamil riots” from 1956 to 1983? It is understandable, if TamilNet remembered the “anti-Tamil riots from 1956-1983, and forget about the people who were killed by the LTTE. Why only Lasantha Wickramatunge on their home page? What about the other prominent figures in the society, who were killed by the LTTE?
You see the pattern? You see how blindly some people believe in the things published by these traitors. Surely they are aiming at the funding money of donor organizations. But they tell the world something else. That’s why I say, the prostitutes standing alongside the Colombo streets have much more dignity than people like Sanjana Hattotuwa or Sunanda Deshapriya.
Now that with Shiral Lakthilake’s nomination in the UNP Colombo District list, the cat has been jumped out of the bag. We know who are the next candidates waiting in the line.
