Ah yes, the early morning news: Bomb in Buttala 23 killed, 67 injured, another bomb to follow this topped off with some gunfire and the president of SL has "taken measures to assist those in need in this area"
Lovely isn't it? You wake up in the morning, listen to the Ghastly stories which is probably "Music to most of our ears" because we are apparently "WINNING THE WAR" and it will all "END BY MID 2008".
No, but really......WHO are we fooling? Does NO ONE in this country understand the FUTILITY of WAR?
Each side blames the other, and apparently (according to each side) they are winning. WHO is winning? WHAT is happening? How are we to know? Do we SEE what is going on? We believe what we HEAR! How Marvelous! And to see, we have a literacy rate 90 something percent. Yet, we don't have the BRAINS to realize what is really happening here.
Yes, we are killing the LTTE soldiers.....does that mean that they are not killing us? The war which has been happening for the last 30 years is going to end in 6 months? You really think so?
If anyone of you has watched Kingdom (WARNING: SPOILER CONTENT- do not read if you have not watched the Kingdom) and remember the last part of it..... You will realize WHAT I am talking about. The main terrorist in the movie whispered to his grandson before his death " We will KILL THEM ALL" and at the beginning of the film, the FBI dude says the same about the Terrorist. The IRONY of it: Both parties fail to achieve this objective.
Yes, say we killed off all of the LTTE by mid 2008. Do you really think that'll be the end of it? There are thousands of LTTE supporters who believe in their "Cause". Will they not continue their fight?
Rhetorical Questions really do amuse me......... :|
End to Peace and Beginning of War

A new beginning???
Friday, January 04, 2008I highly doubt it. Sorry for being such a cynic, but 2008 seems worse than ever in Sri Lanka. During the 1st week itself there were shootings and bombings not too mention price hikes.
Yesterday we went out to have lunch with a couple of buddies.... and we realized that out of what we ate, we gave like a quarter of the money to the bloody government. For what? Continue the war which is (ACCORDING TO THOSE BIASED IDIOTS) going to end soon.
Wake up and smell reality people! This is a guerrilla war you're talking about! And SAY we won this war by hook or by crook, what is the guarantee that this whole so called "Ethnic Situation" won't rise again?
Oh well, everything seems so expensive nowadays, it's a headache when planning an outing. The hypocrisy is that while everyone else is suffering and paying HUGE taxes, the hundreds of ministers are enjoying away...
First of all, if MR is SO sure of winning this war, the first thing he should do is cut additional costs of all ministers..we seem to be paying taxes NOT for the war to progress but to fatten our ministers as well as himself and his family.
I really want to go on about this topic, but I will leave it for tomorrow as I have to jet off.. GRRRR!

Peace or War?!?!?!?
Thursday, August 10, 2006First of all....im wondering if the president and his other FRIENDS (as in the JVP and JHU) are actually in the country these days...cuz we are hearing very little from them...Remember those days when the elections were going on??? The way they were screaming abt how the UNP was trying to give away a part of the country etc etc....???? Good joke isnt it??? At least those days there were no bombs and such brutal killings unlike nowadays.... And now they are blaming the ceasefire agreement for all the problems... The prob with Sri Lankans are that they forget the past VERY SOON! Little do they remember that even before the ceasefire agreement the LTTE freely roamed around the country....that they could bomb all the main buildings of SL (which happened) and even bomb the bloody airport......and mind u ppl...this was BEFORE the CFA!!!!! but........our poor souls dnt remember these........
And where are these ppl who were screaming their guts off those days.....where's Mr. Weerawansa and them??? Oh yeah....i forgot....They are PROTESTIN..... (as usual..) but check this out folks.....they arent protesting against the LTTE this time...instead they are urging the UN to help Lebanon...What a joke!!!!! Honestly??? Can ppl be soo jobless and ignorant? When we have a crisis situation here wit the LTTE, our ppl are trying to help OTHER countries... without atleast TRYING to take SOME kind of action against the LTTE!!! This is why I think that our country is beyond repair.....I'm normally very very optimistic abt stuff but when it comes to this topic...i think that as long as there are dumb kind of ppl like Mr.Weerawansa and the the monks from JHU....our country will NEVER develop.....nor will the wounds heal....!!! Im a buddhist but Im ashamed about the behaviour of those monks of the JHU....If anyone is going to the "apaya"(hell) it'll be them first and then the rest of the ppl........
Honestly I think peace is better than war but the peace settlement should be carefully and well structured....there should be NO loopholes what so ever! The LTTE cannot be brushed off by big mouths who dont do anything other than shout to solve probs....it must be done by using BRAINS....A good plan could actually set a trap to wipe those Mother Fuckers off! So like someone said (in Dimi's blog) war is bad but bad peace is the worst!!!!
To the JVP- Loketa parakase gedarata maragade!!!!!
