The planning and the economic development of the North and the East was once again in the hands of the US and of course their co – chair partners.Surreptitiously, the US had been successful in dividing the country into two (or nearly so). And what went mostly unnoticed was how US imperialism had established a bridgehead on the island by creating an imperial niche in the North and the East of the country.It is pertinent that the Atlantic Charter of August 1942 heralded the birth of the US Empire, the dismantling of the British Empire and the beginning of the end of the Imperial ambitions of Germany.Geo political analysts say that US Imperial doctrine, loosely defined as globalization, is advanced by its strategy of ‘Creating or Fuelling New or Existing Conflict’. The tactics employed to execute that strategy as evidenced in the majority of affected countries show the US intent, to conceal their footprints that may give the lie to their direct involvement in the target country, to distract attention to US objectives in that country by raising diversionary issues that US believe are locally appealing, to inveigle their (or their proxy) way in as Conflict Managers to the very conflicts created and in that Management process (Conflict Resolution) achieve their objective in the targeted land.The US were successful in muddling the Sri Lankan minds by distracting Sri Lankan attention to US’s strategic objective; they did so by creating the right conditions for the Sri Lankans to fight each other. The US strategic objectives in Sri Lanka are clearly outlined in the John Kerry report of 2009. Two important pawns in US imperialism’s near successful execution of its plan to break up Sri Lanka and add to its empire a part of Sri Lanka, the North and the East, were Kumaratunge and Wickramasinghe.A third plank of US imperialism in Sri Lanka was a small coterie of Vellaly Tamils who continue to socially subjugate and ostracize the non Vellaly Tamils, considered by these Vellalys as dispensable objects; the Vellalys manipulated the non Vellaly Tamils to fight the war. An interesting observation made by a political analyst was that the Vellalys were conspicuously absent from the battle lines during the conflict.By 2005, the evil twins, Kumaratunge and Wickramasinghe with that small coterie of Vellaly Tamils had done US imperialism proud in Sri Lanka; they continue to do yeomen service for them. This was the legacy Rajapaksa inherited in 2005. When Rajapaksa saw through the US plan he had the rare will, courage, and strength to battle US imperialism in Sri Lanka.Rajapaksa exhorted the people and the people rallied around him; fathers and mothers sent their children in their thousands to join the army to save this country; the numbers that rallied around his clarion call helped the army to evolve their brilliant military strategy that finally decimated the US proxy force in Nandikadal.When the US and their western allies saw the writing on the wall in the final stages of the conflict they hurriedly dispatched their emissaries Miliband, Kouchner, and Holmes to browbeat Rajapaksa and halt the operation to save their proxy fighters; they stepped up their arms embargo on Sri lanka; they brought in a motion at the UN Security Council to compel Sri Lanka to stop ‘The Rescue Operation’; they delayed a vital 2.5 billion USD loan from the IMF to Sri Lanka.In the final days Obama intervened; Kerry in his report says, quote: “Just days before the war ended, President Obama delivered a statement from the Rose Gardens urging Sri Lanka to seek a peace that is secure and lasting”. Unquote. Kerry admits that the defeat of terrorism in Sri Lanka was a major foreign policy setback for the US in recent times; ‘it affected not only Sri Lanka but the entire South Asian region’.</blockquote>
