N2,

I call it like it is. You’re not baiting me to say anything I do not want to.

*** Remember, no Sinhala-Buddhist nonsense = no LTTE; caused and effect! ***

25 years ago was the case, but after all the proposals by the GoSL to devolve power and the LTTE flat out refusing all of them that argument no longer has any validity.

Here’s a new one for you: Manhinda’s Administration and the Sri Lankan population’s Zero Tolerance on Terrorism is a direct result of LTTE unrelenting and unwillingness to negotiate. Plain and Simple.

Anyway, why is it that ‘ You Sinhala Chicken-Littles’ blame the Tamils for ruining the country when it is ‘you Sinhala Nationalists and Communalists’ are fully to blame?

Remember, no Sinhala-Buddhist nonsense = no LTTE; caused and effect!

N2,

No,…. that is your Felonious assumption. You would actually need something like Proof to say that the GoSL was responsible for his death…Oh WAIT! Who am I kidding…..? but when do Tamil Nationalists and Communalists who Bark from 12,000 Miles away need any SORT OF PROOF of anything to Condemn the Sri Lankan Government?

You Tamil Chicken-Littles have been Crying “GENOCIDE” for the past 25 years to the West….

LOL …. Yeah I can see how you can make the assumptions all day long… it is what you people do best.

All I said is there is no Love lost for him with me… Just like there’s No Love Lost with you Communalists for Tamil Minister Jeyaraj Fernandopulle that the LTTE murdered a week before…. You will cry Genocide when the SL armed forces are fighting the LTTE, but when the LTTE murders Tamils you giggle like little school girls.

I’m not the GoSL. he may have tripped on a Mine in LTTE territory… I heard it is kinda dangerous there with all those Mines the LTTE has been laying down for our Soldiers to find… Non-Existant Eelam is a Dangerous Place…

In Devinda Fernando’s scenario the LTTE are all hiding in the church and attacking the SL forces. So if the SL forces had any sense wouldn’t it be better to go through another place where the LTTE are not concentrated?

If all the LTTE can hide in or behind the church then the church must be like Dr.Who’s Tardus.

The Madhu church area is tiny compared to the rest of the area that the SL forces are trying to attack. There are plenty of other options, so why try to go through the Madhu church area?

If the LTTE was really firing at the SL forces from inside/behind the church doesn’t it make more sense to go another way and stay out of range?

The LTTE seems to have positioned some defenses near the church in response to the SL forces trying to go that way. One should not confuse the effect with the cause.

LTTE use the Church to hide shield themselves… LTTE know the Northern Territory better than anyone else… they know the Ballistic capabilities and ranges of the SL Armed forces weapons… they knew if they positioned themselves behind the church and that some SL Army retaliatory Artillery fire would fall short and hit the Church…they designed and planned their attack with this outcome in mind……they do it deliberately so that they can get their Church Barkers like the Good Fr. Kili to run to the UN and Western countries in order to bolster their case for International Community intervention….

I have no sympathy for priests who support and participate in Terrorism. They are merely men just like the rest of us, capable of all the Evil that normal men do. If anything, this man has engaged in a Dereliction of Duty by choosing to support the oppression of his flock by throwing his hat in with the LTTE terrorist organization.

Fr Karunaratnam was a human rights activist. The GOSL was killing to silence him. They are wrong.

Fr Karunaratnam will be in heaven. How about the Buddhist soldiers who are dying? Are they not rushing to hell to be in eternal fire?

Soldiers, think of what you are doing and where you will end up !!

This why this extremely intelligent and articulate was killed.

It is most interesting that Devinda Fernado and the NPC are making contrary/opposite comments.

The NPC wants to make out that the LTTE had a motive: “He was active in highlighting recruitment of children by the LTTE and worked tirelessly for their release. Fr Karunaratnam also sought to publicise the human rights violations to which the people living in the north east, particularly the Wanni region, were subjected to.”

But Devinda Fernando has in this instance stated the truth of the matter.

As to the Madhu matter, Fr Karunaratnam himself, shortly before his murder/assaination, pointed out very clearly that it was the GOSL that was trying to politicise the matter to gain military advantage and that there was no genuinly military reason why the GOSL offensive should take the Madhu church route.

So is it surprising that he was seen as a threat and became a target?
