It is true, what he said. UN could have prevented the civilians death. What cost they achived this.

The truth can be coverd up for awhile but it can never be hidden for too long. The Rajapaksa Government sowed the wind now they are reaping the whirlwind!

Mr. Weiss just wants to sell his book and make a quick buck!
Amused Thursday, 28 April 2011 02:21 AM
Ah, so this poor fellow just wants to sell his book :)

This lier try to gain some economic benefits by selling his book to who are interested in Sri Lankan war. These fabricated stories will be enjoyed by those who are against the peaceful atmosphere in Sri Lanka prevailing now. UN report also based on the stories like this. Even in recent documentary done by Channel 4, has twisting stories such as showing the vehicle yard, those were stolen by LTTE during their period, and kept for identification process, by owners of them.

You may not like Rajapaksha. But this not an issue with Rajapaksha. It is an issue with SL. Sri Lanka destroyed LTTE without listening to Western countries (US/UK/EU) who were trying to save LTTE at the eleveth hour. So western countries are not happy. That is all about this nonsense.
Think of country before the politics. (That is what some UNP / JVP supporters have failed to do and they wanted to get rid of Rajapaksha with Western help)
Upul Thursday, 28 April 2011 03:14 AM
Yes. They could have stopped by saving LTTE short time. Then LTTE would have started killing thousands of people again as they did in all previous occasions. We would be still counting death bodies daily. Destroying LTTE could have taken lives of certain innocent people who had been kept as a human shield. Definitely not in ten thousands. But for that also LTTE to be blamed. It is true tens of thousands LTTE members died during the battle. It seems this guy has counted the terorist and army soldies being killed in the battle field.

If Mr. Weiss was so concerned of civilians in the war zone, why didn't he get his superiors in the UN to get the LTTE to release them????
This shows the ulterior motives of the organisations and their people concerned.

Now Ban Ki Moona is in trouble. Lets see how he deals with China, India, Israel, Pakistan and other powers who supplied us with arms and training and other support. Am I forgetting that USA too gave us training at one stage.

Very true. Dont we know how we suffered at the clutches of the LTTE. Eg: At the Central Bank bombing in SL 1996 My aunt lost her eyes who is going to replays that NAVI Pillai

Well said, Upul!! It's not about Rajapaksa. It's about us, the Sri Lankans. West want us to take the beating of LTTE forever so they can have us as their dependents forever. Who else had the backbone to stand against the mighty West and destroy the terrorism in SL! No matter what happens, Rajapaksa will remain in SL history as a hero. West is doing him a favor to achieve that status.
