Ado, methana koheda LTTE ekak. Hema ekatama LTTE ekai Sirasai alla ganna epa. Polisiya, Uni studentslata gehewa. Ethana weredda ekko polisiya, ekko uni students la. Sirasa eka pennuwa witharai. Umba nikan modern day King Kekille wagene.....
I think you also have got into this Sirasa = LTTE syndrome. I bet you don't even know why Sirasa is bad. Just because it has been force fed into you that this channel supports the LTTE you just vomit it out. You don't even have the brains to find good examples of this channel's purpoted support of the LTTE.
The LTTE is a terrorist organisation. They should be banned and anyone supporting them should also be banned. There is no question about it. The security forces and police should hunt them down and do the LEGAL needful. I look forward to the day the war ends and we get to live in a trouble free Lanka. I wish and hope that this day is not far away.
However intelligent Sri Lankans should not be caught in this blame Sirasa/ UNP/ LTTE for ALL our troubles.
I will not comment about this further. So don't bother...
Your case reminds me of a story....
Put five monkeys in a cage. Inside that cage, hang one banana on a string and place a ladder under it. Keep a garden hose nearby. Soon one of the monkeys will spot the banana and start to climb the ladder to get it. When he does, spray all of the other monkeys with cold water. Now, replace the banana.
After a while another one of the monkeys will probably go for the banana. Again, spray all of the other monkeys with cold water.
Monkeys are relatively smart, so pretty soon, whenever one of the monkeys attempts to climb the ladder, all the other monkeys will try to prevent him from doing it. When that happens, put away the cold water hose. Remove one monkey from the cage and replace it with a new one. Now hang a new banana over the ladder.
The new monkey will spot the banana and head for the ladder. To his surprise, all of the other monkeys will spontaneously attack him. After several more futile attempts, all of which will result in further beatings, the new monkey will no longer try for the banana.
Remove another of the original monkeys and again replace it with a new one. Now replace the banana. Again, the new monkey will make a grab for it. Like his predecessor he will be stunned to discover that all the other monkeys attack him. In fact, the previous newcomer will most likely take a particularly enthusiastic role in his replacement's punishment.
One at a time, gradually replace all of the original monkeys with new ones. Each of the newcomers will go for the banana. Each one will be attacked by the other four. Most of the new monkeys have absolutely no idea why they were not allowed to climb the ladder, or why they are participating in the assault on the newest monkey.
When all of the original monkeys have been replaced, none of the remaining monkeys have ever been sprayed with cold water. Nevertheless, not one of those monkeys ever approaches the ladder, why not? Because as far as they are concerned that's the way it has always been done around here.
By the way, this is from Sucheta's blog. This blog entry is a good read.
