General Fonseka is Absolutely Right
Center for Policy Alternatives has issued a communication saying that they do not approve the personal views of General Sarath Fonseka which are exclusively within in his own perspective based on his personal judgment.
[ad#200×200]In no uncertain terms, it is none of CPA’s business or anybody else’s to interfere with Mr. Sarath Fonseka’s fundamental right of expression of his views which has been guaranteed to any citizen by the Constitution of Sri Lanka.
Right from the colonial days of our history, Tamil politicians have been communal minded and chauvinistic by designating all their political parties with the word “Tamil” up to this moment whereas the Sinhala people never designated their political parties as ‘Sinhala’. For example, Sri Lanka Freedom Party, United National Party, Jathika Hela Urumaya, Janatha Wimukthi Peramuna, etc.
A tragic situation has been created in the country by these CPA like institutions where Sinhala people cannot say that this is the country of the Sinhala people depriving their birth right despite the fact that Sinhala people are naturally humane and rational to accommodate all the other minorities to live in this country in harmony. In addition, the Constitution of the country provides civil liberties and justice to every citizen alike without any discrimination.
The radio does not play Nanda Malini’s song “Me Sinhala Apage Ratai” now. Why is that?
Prof. Sunil Ariyaratna’s lyrics in that song are his honest thoughts I must say and Nanda Malini really meant every word of it when she sang it although she does not sing it now, possibly due to some personal restraints.
Can anybody deny the fact that the traditions of our country, the name of which is “Sinhale” as stipulated in the “Udarata Agreement” signed with the British in 1815, were inspired by the Sinhala Buddhist culture for the last 2550 years?
We should be able to open our mouth and tell the whole world that this is the blessed country of Sinhala Aryan people. It is a fact. General Fonseka is absolutely right.

CPA pompously behaves as if it is superior body and General Fonseka is its subordinate. The fact of the matter is CPA is a quango and is run by foreign money. It is run by traitors. General Fonseka is not answerable to CPA. He is a decorated war hero and is the Commander of Army. If he has been given the duty by our President, of liberating our country from the grips of a murdereous terrorist gang , then he can say what he thinks of the murderers and all those who support them. Tamils, so long as they are peace loving and live in harmony with the majority, can exercise their equal rights. But the equal rights should not be taken for granted. For example, how many of the tamils living in Colombo and elsewhere stood up and condemned or volunteered to join the army to liberate our country from the gang of terrorists. Karuna nd his people did, and for that they earned the right to manage their own affairs. What has the bellyaching CPA and its paymaters done in trying to save our nation. Nothing. CPA you pompous buffoons, go fly a kite.
