Throw the rascal in the dungeons and throw away the key!
Kamal G, please take note of this and summarily extinguish, with no mercy, if this is an yet another LTTE revival attempt that the former Yahapalanaya jokers let flourish. Thank you sir!
It is no secret that after the war ended SL Tamils just wanted to be left-alone, to rebuild their devastated lives and as such they barely had any interest in “Tamil politics.” However, the cunning Tamil politicos (who survive on this “We Tamil” racial card to survive and who are well funded by NGO and certain LTTE supporting Tamil Diaspora) thought no, we are not going to let things fall off the track for too long…and so, after a brief lull which helped them revive and connive with unpatriotic Yahapalanayas, they were able to topple the war-winning govt of the day. And since then, they have once again started their “We Tamils” agitation, i.e. with brainwashing the average SL Tamil with “Sinhalese are our enemies, we need to defeat them by getting our separate Tamil state.” The evidence of this vile plot we saw, for example, by the lengths to which these Tamil racists went to ensure that the remains of a Buddhist prelate was not allowed to be cremated in his temple’s backyard (the first time this has happened in SL!) and worse, the Yahapalanaya traitors just allowing it!
