Our motherland following the first duty of a ruler as laid down by Kautilya, that is Raksha. Of course in the process many people have died. But that is not genocide. Even in recent history many have died when the LTTE Tamil terrorists waged a war against the democratically elected government in the country. But that is also not genocide as you people interrupt and see it for political convenience at home in your own countries..
Could you please read the following article in the Lankaweb before you try to advise us.
Also please remember that Sri Lanka is not Canada.We are two different countries with entirely two different Histories and two different cultures which are poles apart from yours.
Also we shall be thankful to you people if you confine your duties to your jobs as Ambassadors representing your countries only in terms of the Geneva Convention without unnecessarily trying to meddle with our domestic affairs at least in future. Also please remember that our civilizations are much older than yours. Hope you know that your Canadian dominion was found only on July 1, 1867, whereas ours goes back at least to the 6th Century BC. As such I don’t think I need further elaborations, apart from saying the following article will be an eye opener not only to you but to all others with similar attitudes, including particularly to those like the Ambassadors of USA,UK and India to correct and control their mistakes both in their arrogant actions and their words at least in future.
Please note that I am addressing this note to you as a vocal diplomat on behalf of entire Diplomatic community, as a duty bound citizen of Mother lanka as there is no politician who has the guts to say so. unfortunately.
