Imbalance of Balanced Criticisms of Masters -The Modern Court of King Kakille

Every thing needs to be in balance. Take for example food intake. Our criticisms need to be in balance. Our judgements need to be in balance. I assure my readers that I have nothing against balance. I am all for balance. Suppose that on the tenet that every thing needs to be in balance, in an attempted murder case the judge gives equal jail terms to both the victim and the victimiser. Isn’t this a summum bonum example of ultimate balance? If it isn’t then it should be, if one goes by international standards of being balance.

Consider following balance views that I am really proud of. Please apply modern international standards to judge my judgements. For these views I am sure that I will win Nobel price for being balanced but only if the international community relinquishes it.

A. A politician of the ruling party of Sri Lanka has abducted a young child to threaten his parents. I admonish both the LTTE and the Sri Lankan Government to refrain from abductions and other forms of violence in this provincial election.

B. It has come to my attention that huge waste of resources occurs in Government Departments in the capital city of Colombo. I would like to remind both the Sri Lankan Government and the LTTE that misappropriation of public money is against good governance.

C. People are fed up with rubbish filing up in streets due to the ineffectiveness of Colombo City Council. I would like to put it to both the LTTE and the City Council that removal of waste from the city streets is an essential service and both parties need to make sure that essential service are carried out without any interruption as the international law requires.

D. The President of Sri Lanka has pardoned a felon convicted for murder without going through due legal processes. This is an alarming situation that concerns the international community. We hereby request both the LTTE and the Sri Lankan Government to refrain from executing miscarriage of justice.

The above views are shining examples of balance that can stand up to the test of international standards. When a sibling slaps another, the parents choose to admonish both parties in equal vigour. Then the victim suffers two injuries; the injury of the slap and the admonishment. The victimiser gets two rewards; he or she gets to slap the other for free and also gets to chuckle and mock the victim about the pain caused by the balanced admonishment of the balanced parents. The net result would be that the victimiser will keep victimising forever since rewards are sure to come thanks to the embellishly balanced parents.

Thanks God, my parents did not have a balance view. They always took pain to sort out the victim and the victimiser and choose the consequence accordingly. The net result was that we were dared to fight and strived to avoid fighting as much as possible.

The 1983 July pogrom is organised by then ruling politicians and sanctioned by the LTTE. In this case my parents (any other parents for that matter) would have admonished both the LTTE and then Government. To be balanced, my parents would have been much harsher on the Government since my parents would have been ashamed to follow the international standards.

There were many occasions in the past that the Government forces played into the tunes of the LTTE. I have no qualms on those situations if the international community chose to criticise the Government strongly as it should have been. That is because I am a humanist first, a patriot second.

During the period of CFA, time after time, the international community chose to exhibit their ‘balance’ by criticising both sides equally. If my parents did the same each and every time when I chose to take advantage on a sibling the victim would have felt and accused that the parents and I had a secret pact to demoralise the victim. The victim should have really felt that he or she was adopted and parents were wishing him/her out of the family.

Certainly Governments should act properly and we need to set higher standards for Governments, but setting higher standards itself needs to be a condemnation and needs to be seen as condemnation of evilness of terrorism not sanctioning of it. If the International community has done this rightly the LTTE would have had to find an ocean of sand to hide his monstrous ugly face.

One reason of this LTTE evilness is to continue this long is that our ambassadors are appointed for extended holidays, expenses paid by the public purse. So mostly they enjoy their time serving the LTTE by indirect or direct means. (In Saudi Arabia, Saudi Nationals say to their Sri Lankan maids “Your embassy is worse than our toilets.” The reasons for this magnificent credential is that the ambassadors and their officers have a balance view on the money offered to them to look other way and for not standing to protect Sri Lankan citizens form injustices and cruel treatment by the Saudi Nationals. This should not go against all Saudis, though. Also, please pardon me, the diplomats who work hard to counter vicious propaganda of the LTTE.) This is the part that we would have been able to control and neutralise but more significantly there was another reason; the international community wants to appear as being impartial.

One can only surmise that this need of the international community to appear as being impartial at the expense of impartiality itself may be driven by its secret wish of LTTE’s triumph. Then the international community will be able to demand back the favours for impartiality from the triumphant evil empire of True Sun God.

If my parents behaved in the same manner for the sake of appearance of being impartial one of the siblings could have concluded that the parents were in fact shamelessly partial. Since the international community has chosen the approach of equal blame its partiality has become only too transparent. For this reason, the international community has become a joke in front of the LTTE and the LTTE did not care even an iota the attitude of the international community. Its blatancy in assassinating former Indian Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi and repeated violations of CFA with unimaginable arrogance and their stance of glorification of suicide killing are examples of a spoiled evil child.

Imagine that the Sri Lankan Government has committed a crime in the magnitude of killing of Mr. Rajiv Gandhi or a suicide killing. The international outcry would have surpassed the fury of the most humongous thunderstorm one has ever witnessed. Not only is the LTTE able to ridicule, humiliate and laugh at the international community, it is also audacious enough to question the impartiality of the international community whenever it seems like that the international community is vacillating to act according to the wishes and whims of the LTTE.

Now the tables have turned around and the Government is acting more assertively than ever before and questions the judgements of the international community. The UNP is saying that they put an international safety net around the LTTE but the fact of the matter was that UNP was able to get an international cage around the sovereignty of the country itself. The current Government, which is still traitorous in some aspects, was able to perform a Hudini act to get out of this international trap with amazing skills. If, for some unforeseen reason, the Government fails on this regard then still a huge gratitude of mountainous magnitude is owed to them by the Nation for the work they have done so far. The responsibility of the failure should go to the opposition which does not stand up with shoulder to shoulder in this herculean national task and looks for every possible way to sabotage the Government program on National sovereignty.

As a spoiled child would, seeing its victim has become more assertive and the parents control has weakened to a significant level, the LTTE has begun to whinge about impartiality of the International community. For the LTTE only impartiality is being partial with their each and every crime against humanity including hostage taking, drug trafficking, prostituting rings, credit card frauds, suicide killings, use of civilians as body defence armour and many more abhorrent crimes.

What else can they do apart from whinging?

Internationally Cherished and Locally & Totally Wicked Truths

By Swarnajith Udana

Featured in Asian Tribune on 13-04-2009


Last night just before I went to slumber, as usual, I skimmed over news. Here it was. I read the truth of a millennium. The shock of dark evilness sickened my soul and I was captured in a demonic trance.


SLA buildup poses severe threat to civilian security within 'safety zone'


During my sleep, the echoes of this statement from Tamilnet had swirled me into a Land of evil version of Baron Münchhausen. When I wake up in this morning I began to feel the Sky is the Earth and the Earth is the sky. The Sun is revolving around the True Sun God. The Sun is the Moon and the Moon is the Sun. It was quite difficult for me to come out of this trance of Trueness of Sun God. Fortunately for me, a rat, running scared to hide itself- fumbling through my feet, broke my trance. And the sacredness visible from this rat reminded me someone cornered in a tiny beach strip.


This statement is internationally true. Any doubts then judge by the reactions of our Masters. Some thing which is true internationally can be a lie locally. In the international arena, the truth is defined by national interests. Ferdinand Marcos was a real democrat for our Masters. They self-hypnotized themselves into trance according to the needs emanating from their national interests. In this trance engendered by so called national interests, USA, UK, Norway and all our Masters have become devout and faithful disciples of this Sun Godly truth. For them, now, True Son God is the true God. Or at least they pretend so. Sometimes they pretend not to pretend or pretend to pretend. Which is which? it all depends on the strategic necessity.


Because of their pretended or intended piety and reverence towards the True Son God, our Masters sink into a deep pretence of trance or truly divine trance- which is similar to the one I was briefly and truly experiencing in this morning due to sleeping through the echoes of evilness. Luckily I have seen the rat underneath my feet; I was saved. The Masters truly cannot see a rat from a rat since they have trained themselves for a long long time to see democrats form tyrant despots; the pretended stance of Masters has become a deep trance of sincerity. Masters themselves do not know now that this is not pretense any more since pretense has overtaken the pretense itself and become too real even for them.


This internationally acclaimed truth is locally untrue as defined by tears, blood, pain and death. Ask civilians who have escaped and who are striving to escape. Even ask some surrendered disciples of the True Son God. They will say how wicked this internationally worshipped truth is, as measured in feelings of misery, cruelty of diseases, pain of hunger, wounds of gunshots and deaths of live burning.


Please do not assume that our Masters do not really understand the statement above. In fact, it could almost be a pre-agreed code language. Isn’t it true that SLA build up threatens! Of course it does and it has. Why do they have to say it so out loud if it is not for sending a coded message? In fact, SLA build up did not stop at just threatening. That is the reason True Sun God has become a True Rat. This is a code. The Masters and their True Sun God both pretend to be talking about Tamil civilians but what they are actually talking about is their national interests (in the part of our Masters) and the saving of the sorry life (in the part of His Royal Ratness).


Oh I need to apologize to rats. I never intended to insult you rats. Even when you are scared you run and hide in your hole but you never use your little ones as defense armor. Sorry rats, deeply sorry!


Now we see that how true this statement is. Yes SLA build up threatens His Evil Ratness. One does not have to be a Euclid to figure this out. If the real worry of His Royal (or Evil) Ratness is civilians why does not HE let the civilians go?


If our Masters real worry is also truly civilians why don’t they strongly protest? It is true that feeble noises of faint winging, asking True Son God to release the civilians occur time to time, but this winging drama almost appears to be stage managed.


Then there are servants of LTTE and the Masters inside our beloved country itself. They try to get the credit of marginalizing of the LTTE while still doing every possible thing to sabotage the military campaign. Even in the Government there are traitors of true National interests (See the distinction between Masters’ national interests these genuine national interests that do not impose or harm others.). These traitors engage in poll violence and various corrupt activities. Shame on these people! This is a defining moment of our people. Only thing that they can think about is their lousy coffer. May God bless them if HE really can! No! No! I do not mean the True Sun God here. In these days, True God of Ratness cannot even breathe in peace let alone blessing others.


I would like to call upon the Government of Sri Lanka to declare several religious observance days to bless Tamil civilians. Kovils, Mosques and Churches should have a special prayer days. Temples must be doing all day Pirith to radiate compassion towards civilians. Tooth of Temple can do a special pooja dedicated to Tamil civilians.


These religious institutions and civilian agencies need to collect gifts to send to our brothers and sisters in need.


Radio and TV programs that enhance the awareness that a large number of our brothers and sisters are in distress need to be aired.


There should be talk shows so that people in distress can share their stories with the general public. These talk shows should be aimed at linking hearts as the military has almost completed one phase of linking lands.


This war is not about just linking land. What use of connecting land if the people are unlinked? This war is about our National Unity. We all should play our part in this.
