How to Regain the Lost 26 Years of Our History?


Sri Lanka has a history of 61 years after independence, and 42% of those years we've been involved in a brutal war; fighting against one mans dream to divide this country. Can you imagine the damage that has been made to the morale of the people of this country? It is said that we were the strongest economy in Asia, back in 1948 when we gained independence from Brits. We were strategically located in the Indian Ocean, where we would have take a huge advantage compared to the other countries in the region. No regular Earthquakes, or flash floods to destroy everything in a moment. Trincomalee was the second most developed city in the country, and it was developing faster than Colombo. Jaffna was better than Kandy or Galle, to live in. We were damn too sexy to be a heaven! But today, what do we have to live with?

The stolen 26 years of our history has made many damages to the morale of our people. Our people don't trust this country anymore. I've heard many people say 'This is not the place to live". "We can't do any better". "This is a hell". Our media, politicians (when they are in opposition) cultivated this type of pessimism, negativity within the psyche of our people. The picture painted in the mind of our younger generation, born after 1985 is "this is a poor country, and we can't do anything about it". Now that these young generation with the tools to express their ideas freely, they keep on passing the ball to the next generation with thoughts of negativity and pessimism. Even after the war is over; those forces who acted like "guardian angels of peace" are still cultivating pessimism and negativity among our people.

When can we get out of this parasite mentality, and give life to a stronger nation? If you are a blogger; just think about this. What percentage of your blog posts you are using to cultivate positive and optimistic thoughts among the people? If you haven't, isn't this the right time for you to use your writing ability to do something for your motherland?

We have managed to end an war which most people believed that never would end any sooner. Now let's stop accounting for the "profit & loss" of the war, and focus our energy towards the future. It's true that the Sinhalese politicians created Prabhakaran. And power hungry Tamil politicians also had a role to play. It is true that July 1983 was an ugly mark in our history. I agree that Tamil people were strongly appalled when re-thinking about those days. But don't you all think that you have taken enough revenge by killing thousands of Sinhalese in Prabhakaran's war of "liberation"? Is this the time for you to retrospect the past and keep on renewing old wounds?

Now we don't have a barrier in between us. We don't have to look at you as "potential suicide bomber" anymore. But are you ready to SPEAK UP and say; "Let's join hands to rebuild this country"?

Let's put a full stop to all this negativity, pessimism, distrust and cynicism. Let's stop blaming the politicians (whom we elected ourselves) and question ourselves "what have I done to make things better?". Let's stop all this insane, and do something. At least let's make our next generation a one which is optimistic about the true potential of this country. Stop ridiculing your own country!Stop cultivating negativity among our people. I urge you. All of you. You won't gain anything by ridiculing your own country for the sake of political advantage or for financial benefits. We had to go through that 26 years long war; because some people in the past did that same mistake. Would you do it again for your country?

Kill negativity. Let go the past. Unite for a better tomorrow...

I Decided to Pardon Sanjana Hattotuwa, CPA, FMM, and Groundviews.org

Dear Sanjana, CPA, FMM, and Groundviews.org,

For all the pain you took to spoil our war against terror; I must tell you “Sorry! You have failed”. I will not tell you “try harder next time”. Because there is no “next time” this time. The game is over, and LTTE is clean swept. There won't be any more necessity for “peace talks” for you to facilitate. We have reached peace; but not through the way you wanted to get at it. It's not a half baked peace like we celebrated in 2002. This time it's real; because the “man eater” is dead with all his supporters.


I will not bother you anymore with hard questions. I am not angry with you, for not answering any of these questions. I can understand the difficult situation you faced, after seing those questions. Now that the Prabhakaran is dead, and Ealam is no more is an option for sure; there's no need for any of you to answer my questions. I will not even ask you “Aren't you ashamed of earning money from your international donors, by selling the people of your motherland?”. No.. I don't need an answer for that question either.

Sanjana, haven't I told you once, that we don't share a “personal vision” of bringing peace to this country? I've told you, my personal vision is that, but yours was more of a business vision. Now it's been achieved I'm happy. But you seems to be still not happy! Why? Your GV still deliver hate speech at the President and the armed forces. What's wrong? Why are you acting like a mosquito coil manufacturer, who heard the news of total extinction of mosquitoes? (When after all the supposed vision of a mosquito coil is to get rid of mosquitoes)

I feel sorry about your job security. Your best selling product; WAR is out of stock now. It's a basic concept in marketing. Without a problem, how are you suppose to sell a solution? Without war, how can you sell peace? I'm sure you will be able to find different products to sell, but any of those won't be hot selling among your international donors, like the war did.

Prabhakaran's death has showed us an undeniable truth. That is; no matter how hard you try, the spirit of the people of this country cannot be stopped now. You will continue insulting our heroes; delivering hate speech about our forces, and about the president. But you will not get a chance of turning us back! If, at least a handful of people trusted you and listened to you; I'm sure they will also turn their backside to you in a matter of just few months. I challenge you, there will be no Groundviews.org to celebrate the first anniversary of end of civil war, unless you drastically change yourself by introducing more new contributors like Lalith Gunarathne and Dayan Jayathilake. If Sanjana Hattotuwa, Sunanda Deshapriya, Uvindu Kurukulasooriya and CPA clan continue to write on your site, you will be gone in a matter of just two more months. May be thanks to people like Dayan and Lalith; you will be able to survive a bit longer . But not for so longer. Yes this is a challenge!

Before I leave you with my pardon; let me make just one insult to you. I've designed the book cover for your next publication. Remember the book you've published through me about an year ago? Now here's the latest book. This is in response to this.

One Interesting Fact I Noticed in President’s Speech

I was watching the repeat (and repeat and repeat) telecast of the President’s address to the nation in parliament today. There was one key thing I noticed; which I couldn’t stop blogging about.

In his speech; the president has never mentioned a word of “hate” against the people who suspected him, or ridiculed the military operations. He never retaliate at those people who said “Any bull can go to war”, or to those “Pamankada-Ali mankada” people. Of course they were “well taken care” by the state media; but I noticed this as a great sign of leadership from the president.

His speech was solely focused on acknowledging those who supported, and motivating the people of this country. Unlike some of the CBK speeches at parliament; he didn’t bashed the UNP or JVP as evil forces that ruin this country. He set a clear example that, this is not the time to point fingers at each other and do the political blame game.

Great example Mr. President! We would be glad, if the UNP and JVP will reciprocate with this gentleness of the president.

The Next Two Biggest Priorities Ahead of Our Nation


Lot of things had been said about the war victory, and the feeds are coming in from all over the place adding their two cents to the recent developments in the country. I was thinking about writing this post a little bit later; after the clutter is cleared out a bit from the blogosphere. But then again; I thought this would be the ideal time to write this post.

While we celebrate the victory; we have to keep in mind that this is just the beginning. As I've been telling since I first started blogging; Sri Lankan had hundreds of problems to be solved, and at that time terrorism was the first priority. When some other bloggers were bombarding the government with the other problems which had not been addressed by them, I continued to say "let them finish with the war". Now that the war has come to an end; the government of Sri Lanka and the people have to focus on the next immediate priorities.

For me, the most important priorities ahead of us are twofold

1) Taking care of the war affected people in IDP camps
2) Taking care of the injured members of the armed forces, and the families of those who sacrificed their lives in the war

These are the two most important things that we have to focus on next 5 to 6 months. Not about ensuring press freedom, or bringing down petrol prices. There are over 265,000 civilians living in the IDP camps in Vauniya and other places, and they had been taken care well by the relevant institutions. Of course they are not provided with all the luxuries they would have enjoyed in their homes, or what you are enjoying at the moment. But we have guaranteed that they are being sheltered and fed properly. Thousands of people from south, flocked to donate necessary items and medical items to these camps, when ministry of media organized collection programs around the country. Many government and private organizations, individuals did their part by contributing to such programs. In some places, people donated their one day's salary. All these things were done by the people of south, while the pro-Tiger media carrying out propaganda in other countries that thousands of Tamils were being genocide in northern Sri Lanka. Our people never cared about those fabricated stories, and extended their helping hands to the brothers and sisters who were affected by war. This has to be continued! We have to assure, these people get back to their villages soon, and start their usual life. We have to make sure the land mines are removed from their land, and assure security for farming. These people need to be integrated into our economic machinery, very soon. That's the number one priority ahead of us at the moment, and I'm sure we are capable of doing that despite all negative talks being spread around the world. If you want to contribute in this regard; you can contact the Minstry of Mass Media & Information Sri Lanka, Sarvodaya, Rebuild Lanka, ACT Lanka, or contact Indi for other methods on how you can help.

Second most prioritized task ahead of us is to take care of the injured soldiers and not to let them cornered in the society. There are hundreds of injured soldiers who are having minimum of facilities at their homes. No electricity, no water, and no proper toilets. These people need to be taken care of. There are thousands of soldiers, who doesn't have a proper home to live. We need to support building their homes, and pay our tribute. And as a nation; we must look after the mothers and fathers of those soldiers who sacrificed their lives, in the name of this country.

Our people have to come forward and help the soldiers to live in the "post war society". They need our guidance. After being a part of a gigantic war mechanism for years; they might feel bit awkward to get back into the "post war society". We need to help them to get involved in other methods of nation building. We can make them part of many other productive activities towards bringing prosperity to our nation. If you would like to contribute in this regards; you can always contact the Api Wenuwen Api fund.

Can the Pesimists Hold Back a Spirit of a Thriving Nation?

The war is over and the celebrations are still going around. While it is questionable how ethical it is to party all around the streets, while hundreds of our army men were killed during past few weeks and thousands of civilians are lvining in IDP camps; I still believe the emotion of our public are reasonable. Who can hold back the joy of getting free from a 26 years old curse?

But then again; I can see the pesimists are spreading their cynic thoughts once again. Those people who suspected the war against LTTE, are now spreading pesimism all around the place with questioning this government's ability to take this country forward. For them; "press freedom" is the greatest concern. Let it burn in hell! Who cares about "press freedom" when we have more serious issues to tackle in near future? What the "press" can do best now is to shut their "pesimist mouths" themselves (before someone else do that) and do something constructive. In Sri Lana; the so called journalists think that their job is to report bad news. Most of the papers here are not "Newspapers" but rather "Bad Newspapers". This mentality had been grown in this country for last 50 years by these self proclaimed professional journalists. Let's fight against these pesimists at least now, and keep the hopes alive.

Let's Start Rebuilding...



President Mahinda Rajapakshe in his address to the nation said "There are no more minority ethnic groups in this country. Sinhala, Muslim, Tamil, Burgher, Malays.. We all are now Sr Lankans. But there are two groups of people still in this country. Those who love the motherland, and those who don't. Reason that we are happy is; the group that don't love the motherland is now a minority".

Well said Mr.President! This was all what we have been telling in plain "black and white". At least at this moment; our people should walk out of the darkness and start "believing". We have answered those non-believers very well. The history has proven our belief, our faith. Those who spread negativity, mistrust, and confusion among our are now silenced. They might be wondering "what's next?". But we always knew "what's next?". Because, we had a clear vision, a clear plan, clear direction We believed in that vision and we followed it in faith. No one need to worry about "what's next". We are very much clear about "what's next". People of this country will decided "what is best for the country next". We are liberated! We will thrive! Those who criticized, didn't believed, predicted our failure, will continue to do so. But we don't care. The economy will no longer be fucked. Let's rebuild this nation; starting from today itself!

Sri Lankan Media Stations in a New War to Be the First to Report Prabhakaran's Death



This appeared a short while ago on on Lankadeepa website. I trust Lankadeepa and dailyMirror more than some of the other "breaking news" sources in Sri Lanka, and I don't think this will be yet another hoax in the media race to claim the badge "we reported Prabha's death first".

OMG!I really hate these people in the media. Even at this situation, they are not ready to give up their ass saving race to "be the first in reporting". Divayina did a big joke by printing their headline in today's newspaper, claiming that Prabha was dead on last saturday. now if so; how can Lankadeepa report he was shot dead a short while ago?

This is what happen when you too much empower GECE(O/L) guys as "journalists" without proerly training them in the profession.

Game Over!

It's unconfirmed reports all around! One after another "rumor" coming in that the "Top Cat" and his second ranking fellows have already gone where they belong to; hell. Government officially announced Swarnam's death, but looks like keeping the "best of the news" for tomorrow till the "king" arrive from Jordan. According to these "unconfirmed" reports; "king" is supposed to deliver an official speech announcing the "game over" statement. Chief of military, suppose to hand over a "mission accomplished" notice to the "king" and the king will read it over national TV and radio, to the fellow countrymen. Fellow countrymen are expected to raise the national flags everywhere they go; including the Facebook profiles and personal blogs. (See; I have already done).

Let me finish this small note with my favorite line from Mortal Combat. "Game Over.... Piribha die!"

OMG! I'm Exposed.. I Quit Blogging!

Been bit busy last couple of days and returned to Kottu and OMG! WTFH going on here! Chillies, Chocolates, Weeds, Funerals, Burrials and what the fuck is not happening. Looks like all hell broken up and Kottusphere gone really insane. Someone pointed it quite correctly; advertising people does all the shit, as they always do with our brands. They eat our marketing budgets with their crap ads, and now ruining the Kottu feed with all their personal attacks, disclosures and exposures. Look here addies... I know how crappy your offices look like, and how badly you guys dress. But, please leave this place clean. We don't wanna see your bullshit arguments on Kottu feed anymore. I'm sad I once said "Give Pationately Patient a voice again and bring back Nibras Bawa". I withdraw those words! Hell Indi... Kick all these admen and women out of here! No offense Blacker! You guys really have a cultural problem in your industry. Go back to finishing school and get things straightened.

The World is Black and White…


The world is black and white; but only if you look at it very closely. Those who just brush on the surface of it may tell you that there are some gray areas in the world. But in reality, it’s only black and white that exist. Either those people are too lazy to go into details to see the pure division between black and white;and so easily conclude there are gray areas in the middle. Or, they are afraid of something that exists in the extremes of black and white; and that very “something” is a threat to their own existence. Hence they are compelled to pretend as not seeing black as “black” and white as “white” and talk about an illusive gray. They misguide the world about this "non-existing gray" area, like in that old story of the emperor’s new cloak.
Therefore in the final analysis; you are either with us or against us. If you still believe that there’s room for a middle ground, you seriously are confused about your facts and don’t have a gut to make a firm decision. Get a backbone!

An Open Invitation to Indi Samarajeeva and Sanjana Hattotuwa for Answering These Questions

Dear Indi & Sanjana,

This is not a challenge or a kind of commanding. This is purely an invitation to both of you to respond to some unanswered questions I’ve thrown at both of you in some of my recent posts.

I would like both of you to read on; and I invite other Kottu users as well, to read this from top to bottom first.

I have been blogging on Kottu for last 3 years, and you both know that from the beginning; my opinions and beliefs were totally different from you two. More than that, the way in which I express my ideas were totally different. Some people interpreted the way in which I express my ideas as “rude, abusive, and extremely impolite”. Yet again, some other people thought that my English usage is way below the professional level, and I should quit blogging for that reason. Some said, it is unfair for an anonymous blogger like me to write high tempered posts aimed at two named bloggers like you. Both of you, took these reasons time to time to ignore the points I’ve raised in my blog, and you two always “actively avoided” responding to most of the questions I pin pointed at you. I believe, language and anonymity are not a reason for avoiding a valid point. Anonymity is a primary right on social media internet; and English language weaknesses is a valid excuse for a person who’s first language is not English. Given those two facts; I don’t see any acceptable reason for you to avoid the questions I’ve directly aimed at you. If you believe the claims I make are false; you still have the option of proving that it’s false.

Now here is my invitation.

If you don’t like to comment on my blog (If you are worried I’m tracking your IP to locate you as a sub contract from Rajapakshe brothers); you can respond to the questions I’ve asked, on a 3rd party blog. Anyone of you can name an independent moderator out of the Kottu bloggers. It could be RD, Sam, or someone else. That person will start a new blog post on his blog for us to converse. You two have to start the conversation, by answering to the questions I’ve aimed at you in my recent posts, and on some recent comments. I will respond if necessary; and any of the other Kottu user can join in the discussion at anytime. The moderator blogger, should allow full comment access (No moderation), but without “Anonymous comments”. Those who make comments, need to link to some sort of an online Identity like a Google ID, Open ID, WP ID or a direct personal website to link.

If you are worried about my aggressive language; be assured I will not call you “tiger ass lickers” or “traitors of the motherland” in any of my follow up comments (If required to comment). So; it will be a little less “masculine” than the RD language; but will not go to the extreme of NB language.

Here are the open questions! You can take them or leave them. If you like; you can start the conversation on this post itself. (Say OK; and I will disable anonymous comments option, and we are straight in business). Or else, name a 3rd party to moderate the discussion, and ask him to start a new discussion (by listing these questions)


------------Begining of Questions-----------

@ Indi (Indrajeet) Samarajeeva,

Question #1 - You have remarked MP Mano Ganeshan as an “outspoken Tamil human rights MP” in your blog posts, and you have talked many a times about his “heroic acts” on human right activities. You have raised your voice to defend him, when the CID taken him for questioning related to “supporting terrorism” charges. When me and some bloggers clearly identified him as part of the “Ealam blue print”; you identified him as a freedom fighter. But, I believe you have seen the video in which MP Mano Ganeshan talking in an LTTE rally, wearing the Ealam map in his shirt. According to the Sinhala translation made by Saman Kumara Ramawickrama, he says “People of Tamil Ealam! Take weapons and fight against Sinhala nation”.

a) With all these facts; would you still recognize him as an outspoken Tamil human rights MP? Or do you now agree with us, that Mano Ganeshan is a pro-Ealamist?

b) If you agree with the second option; do you agree that you have made a mistake in projecting an untrue personality of a pro-terrorist who violated the constitution of this country? If so, would you agree to write a public apology on your blog? If you can’t; why?

Question # 2 – This is about “censorship on Kottu”.

Do you believe, that Kottu is your private property (which is true) and because of that matter, you have the sole right of deciding who should have a voice on Kottu, and who should not?

If your answer to above question is “Yes” you don’t have to answer below questions. We will respect your “authority” and we will come to a judgment about your interest in “freedom of speech” and government censorship.

Question # 3 – This is also about “censorship on Kottu”.

Given the fact that you blocked Tamilnet.tv for the reasons as mentioned by the owner of that blog; (Technically it's a blog)

a) Why didn't you blocked “Ranjith Fernando Sucks” and “Prof V K Samaranayake” blogs, when they were directly attacking popularly known public figures of this country?

b) Why are you allowing Jathika Chinthana Pravahaya to be syndicated on Kottu; when they clearly operating as a tool for insult the Buddhist clergy, some Sinhala nationalist leaders, and Sinhalese people in general?

c) Why didn't you de-syndicated Dinidu De Alwis, when he re-written the story of Sinha Bahu, and Prince Vijaya's arrival in Sri Lanka (origin of Sinhala race), in a way which is offensive to the Sinhalese people in general?


@ Sanjana Hattotuwa,

Question #1 – The Mano Ganeshan question is also aimed at you. Please don’t escape from the question by say ng “Groundviews is not me, and I am not Groundviews”. You have actively promoted interviews taken from Mano Ganeshan on several occasions, and you also projected a picture to us that Mano Ganeshan is a true human rights activist. But, now his links to the tigers is obvious. You have still not made any comment on your blogs, about this incident. Why?

a) Are you afraid of, if your donor organizations get to know that you supported a pro-terrorist that they will cut your funds?

b) Do you agree Mano Ganeshan violated the constitution of Sri Lanka, by actively speaking on behalf of a separate state called a “Tamil Ealam”?

c) Let’s make the (b) above bit easier. Do you believe that Tamil Ealam is a reasonable idea, and it should be a “considered solution” in solving the problem in North? If your answer here is “Yes”, you don’t have to answer (b) above.

d) Do you agree that the LTTE is a massive human rights violator of all times? If so, what’s your opinion about “human rights activist” Mano Ganeshan speaking in favor of the LTTE in one of their rallies?

e) o you agree with us, that you made a mistake by promoting Mano Ganeshan as a hero? If so; are you willing to make a public apology on Groundviews? If you can’t; why?

Question # 2 – About your comment on this post.

Going back to your comment about Defence.lk, and Army.lk being “pro-Rajapakshe”; do you believe that being “pro-Rajapakshe” (Or for that matter being pro-Wickramasinghe) is a sin, or a guilt as much as being pro-Prabhakaran? The way you have toned your comment; that's what we feel. You are saying that, being pro-Rajapakshe is not any better than being pro-Prabhakaran. Do you really mean this?

------------End of Questions-----------

Now these are my open questions to Indi Samarajeeva and to Sanjana Hattotuwa. All I expect is clear cut answers to these questions, and point me with follow up questions if you want. I don’t want to hear about your track record in humanitarian missions, or your past activities to benefit mother Lanka, with Sarvodaya or any other organization. These questions are not related to any of those stuff.

We all are part time bloggers; and we somehow find few hours to spend on reading and writing blogs. I’m sure, both of you will not come up with the excuse “due to the lack of time.. blab la bla..”.

To all the other reasonable bloggers on Kottu! I’d appreciate, if you could put pressure on Indi and Sanjana to accept this invitation, and answer these questions. You can re-blog about this on your own blog, and compel them to accept the invitation.

Inside An Elusive Mind – Cross Section of Sanjana Hattotuwas Brain

Ever wondered what's inside the mind of an NGO businessman, who's inner psychology is largely “pro-LTTE”; but cleverly disguise that identity from the outside world, with a nice smile and a big grown beard in the face?

Here's a comment made by Sanjana Hattotuwa, as a response to a comment I made on his personal blog.


“Defence.lk and Army.lk, to name but two government run websites, have run sustained hate campaigns and are defined by their pro-Rajapakse propaganda, no better in intent, purpose and expression than pro-LTTE sites. Terrorist propaganda gets needless fuel from censorship. “


According to this comment; Sanjana concludes that; Sri Lankan Government and the LTTE are in equal platform, and there's no difference between the objectives and actions of the two sides. He denies, the fact that one is a terrorist organization banned in Sri Lanka and many other civilized countries; and the other is a democratically elected government, and a state represented in the United Nations Organization. And, therefore he concludes; Defence.lk and Army.lk are the government counterparts for LTTE propaganda websites. He purposely hide the fact that; these two websites were started by the government, to counter the false propaganda carried out by pro-LTTE websites. According to Sanjana; the objective of Defence.lk and Army.lk are “no better” than the objective of Tamilnet.com. And he is saying this, while living in Colombo, and running an anti-Government website himself. What Sanjana propose to Defence.lk and Army.lk is to “stop spreading hatred against LTTE; and make love to them”. But he has never preached this to Tamilnet.com. Instead, every once in a while where Tamilnet is influenced by someone; Sanjana goes up and down in the air; asking for “freedom of speech”. He forget the fact that, Tamilnet is the centre of LTTE international propaganda, and being a propaganda tool for a terrorist organization, it need to be hacked; blocked, and shut down at all possible places.

This is yet another “surfacing” of true personality of people like Sanjana Hattotuwa. Those of you who still believes that he is a “passionate peace lover” who try to bring peace to Sri Lanka through ICT; now here's another chance for you to re-look at his true identity. What he has given auth is not to bring peace through ICT. But to brainwash the Sri Lankan youths (Through his blogs), to think that LTTE is a legitimate representative of the Tamils in Sri Lanka, and government only represents the Sinhalese. And; isn't that a pro-LTTE ideology? 

We've seen Mano Ganeshan speaking in an LTTE rally. If Prabhakaran escape this time, and if the war drag onto another 5 or 10 years; we will see similar videos featuring our own neighborhood blogger Sanjana.

Army.lk was hacked recently; and the blame was put on the LTTE. My perception is, LTTE need not to worry much about hacking the Army.lk. Because, there are enough ICT experts and tech geeks in Colombo, who have sufficient levels of “motivation” , ability and willingness to do that!

British Bullshit Corporation (BBC) Does it Again!

If You are Sourcing Sri Lanka News from BBC; Read from Bottom Up, and Cross-Verify It With Non-TamilNet Originated Source!

Ok RD! Here we go again, and you can write another post about my rude, harsh language with profanity and hatred. The f***ing as******s in British Bullshit Corporation has done it again!!

The latest headline in their website is “Hospital 'hit by Sri Lankan army' “ The idiot who ever wrote the article, took the headline from an anonymous “doctor” in an “unknown hospital” in the 5KM2 No Fire Zone. No naming of the hospital where it said to be hit; or no naming of the two doctors who sent them the “pictures”. More of all; there's no mention of a fucking author for the article on their website. Is BBC now doing the job of VIC? Anonymous journalism? WTF??

Who ever the moron who wrote the article on BBC website, later goes on to mention about the government claims about the incident; but the headline has done the damage. Is this the way BBC suppose to report war in Iraq as well? Write the headline based on AlQuiada sources, and then reporting what the British government has to say?

The LTTE ass licking bloggers has already joined the bandwagon, by re-blogging this anonymous article on BBC. The LTTE may have been totally defeated militarily in the war zone, but its propaganda meachine and the ass licking community is still operating freely without any harm. Be aware of these LTTE supporters on the blogosphere, and give them the right answer when the right time comes!
