Orpheus Perera
At the outset let me ask how Indian secret agents and Israeli secret agents are so active in Sri Lanka, when there was no intelligent service, who were able to save the life of General Densil Kobbakaduva and 35 young men, at a time when terrorists were nearly under full control?
Also in 1981 who was the Cardinal when the Jaffna public library and two Hindu temples were burnt down. I was in the UK when that happened and I was told by Indian and English people that it was done by Sinhalese Buddhists. Buddhists will never set fire to a Hindu temple. They revere Hindu gods too. Jaffna Library had valuable books based on Hindu History and Literature. Hindu Tamils were not terrorists. As a student, I used to work with the late MP Dharmalingam’s son(Sith or Sithdarthan told me, his father was shot dead at his home, Kirimandala Mavatha Navalas, close to our house). There were about 5 Hindu Tamil boys working with me and they were peaceful and good guys).
Just after the end of the war Ranil went to America and his supporters said he was invited to be a lecturer for 3 months at MIT. Actually, he went there to have meetings with the LTTE Diaspora and anti-Sinhalse forces in Boston. They were worried(As much as Ranil), that since the war was won by a Rajapaksa, they would keep on winning elections. Even Americans envied Rajapaksha.
How many Sri Lankans know about Ranil’s trip to America just after the war?
Part of the discussion was to get someone who was more involved in winning the war against LTTE. So he selected Field Marshal Sarath Fonseka. Since he did not have experience as a politician people did not vote for him, He got the votes of strong UNP voters. Then in 2015, he picked Sirisena to contest against MR. Since Sirisena was also the second in command in SLFP. He could defeat MR. Since it was Ranil who helped him to be the President, Sirisena allowed Ranil to run the country. Within that short period, Ranil put the country into more debt, difficult to pay back. At the same time, the LTTE diaspora controlled the big banks around the world.
Knowing that the economy is going to crash in a few years time, Mangala Samaraweeras tried to set up MCC to raise money to save the country. It was rejected by the parliament. .Ranil dissolved the parliament one year before the end of their term. Unfortunately for Rajapaksas’ Gotabaya won the election and became the president and the COVID epidemic came and accelerated the downfall. Gotabaya closed the country for about 2 years causing further economic slump. This was all anticipated by Ranil and LTTE diaspora leaders.
During the time of the “Aragalaya,” all 5-star hotels were fully booked. Colombo was filled with LTTE Diaspora activists. They came from America, England, Australia and Norway. They got JVP involved in their plan to get rid of Rajapaksha’s. Some wanted to kill Gotabaya Rajapakse, the way Colonel Gaddafi was killed. But Gota managed to hand over the power to Ranil and escape.
If anyone from JVP is involved in any transactions(money to keep the crowd in Colombo until GotaGoGama is completed) was Wasantha Samarasinhe, who even tried to enter the President’s office to hand over a letter demanding Gotabaya to resign.
Except for the part done by COVID-19, this entire show was well planned. The same forces may try to get rid of Anura Kumara Dissanayake too. Their main aim was to humiliate and get rid of Rajapaksas. They might even try to get JVP to take Gotabaya, Kamal Gunarathne, and them to Hague, instead of dealing with Ranil who was responsible for many missing youths during the JVP insurrection in 88/89.
