on Targeting Civilians,abductions and torture...what we can learn from West..

there is an increased call for 'ceasefire' from West (and the UN ) mostly the former co-chairs (minus Japan) and UK and France.they also wage wars against terrorism like we do.. US and others as part of NATO under the cover of UN mandates and operates in places like Iraq and Afghanistan..

while they accuse us of-

a.  Targeting Civilians-                 they call it Kinetic events
b.  Abductions/Disappearances-   they call it Extraordinary Rendition
c.  Torture-                                 they call it 'Near Permissible interrogation'

all this double standards are for us smaller countries.. while they sponsor countries like Israel,Columbia,Turkey etc to continue with their aggression against civilians...while all this talk of ceasefire is nothing but an attempt to throw a life line at the LTTE, we have to really take stock of our real friends now!

as for Norway,when the Taliban almost killed their Foreign Minister and his team at a Kabul Hotel in 2008 , they didn't offer to go into talks with Taliban but instead increased their contribution to ISAF..

anyway, above pix i reproduce here as a reminder of how Western Countries wage wars against terror and preach us with protecting rights!

that bleeding Chimpanzee cartoon...

The Chimpanzee cartoon that was in the middle of the eye of the storm..I'm sure you can read all about in the international press,especially US press.. and likes of Pres.Obama and the stimulus bill etc..but i wonder what would happen to Sean Delonas,the creator of this cartoon had he had done something on the same lines to a national paper in Sri Lanka,with our 'you know who' captioned...

guess Mr.Delonas might get his car blocked by 4 motorbikes on his way to work tomorrow..and the rest..well' I'm sure you can imagine..

New map of the Tamil EELAM

Not sure who the creator of this map is,however i think it reflects pretty well how the next stage of myth of so called Eelam is going to be played ,especially considering the events thats unfolding in Vanni now days!!

Good luck to Norway, I'm sure its a much welcomed change for them!

by the way, new LTTE Press ,the successor of the one thats in the hands of the Army in Putukkudirippu must be busy printing glossy calenders for 2009, depicting smiling V.Prabakaran next to the new Eelam map!

LTTE Press in Putukkudirippu and CPA's Saama Vimarshi Magazine

Above are few selected pictures of the LTTE Press in Putukkudirippu,recently capture by the Sri Lanka Army's 57 Division.whats interesting is that few pictures depict CPAs' Saama Vimarshi or Peace Monitor mags among the LTTE propaganda material.

Tri lingual Saama Vimarshi was published by the CPA under its Peace and Media Unit and was headed by its former Director, so called Journalist Mr.Sunanda Deshapriya and Mr.Lionel Guruge. while former has fled overseas,currently based in Chennai,India citing threats to his life (actually running away from funders,due to failing to account for his finances! ) latter is still with the CPA.

I guess CPA may have sub contracted the LTTE press to print Saama Vimarshi as a measure of confidence/trust building and building capacity of the LTTE for its 'peacetime' role!

I'm sure Mr.Guruge has valid reasons for using the LTTE Press, but my sadness is of those glossy calenders of V.Prabakaran are not going to be on the walls of CPA and other LTTE institutions and LTTE camps this year around due to 'anti peace' actions of the Govt.of Sri Lanka.

On the eve of 61+ years of freedom...

I wanted to write more on 61 years of Independence, on the current developments and stuff that i came across.. list is mounting and the pix are clogging the folder.. time seems to be a problem.. till then..
above is from Divaina of 04 Feb. 09.. Cartoon by M.D Weerarathna of Divaina.i think it reflects the sentiments of the people of this country and the reasons for a gathering storm overseas ,against the Govt., in sympathy of the almost crumbled LTTE and its era of Terror.
