A daily newspaper in Pakistan – the ‘Pakistan Observer’ has described the anti-Muslim violence that broke out in Southern Sri Lanka as a conspiracy hatched by enemies of the island nation who wish to damage its relations with Pakistan and other Muslim countries.
The newspaper’s editorial today titled ‘Attempts to damage Pak-Sri Lanka relations’ asserts that the anti-Muslim violence in Sri Lanka that resulted in three deaths and extensive property damage, are being engineered by the enemies of the ‘traditional and historic relations’ between Sri Lanka and Pakistan and other Muslim countries.
The editorial has noted that the factions attempting to instigate anti-Muslim violence are bearing a clear agenda in mind to damage the bilateral relations between Sri Lanka and Pakistan that is presently ‘flourishing and gaining depth’ since they have created detrimental impacts to the enemies of Sri Lanka.
Furthermore, the Pakistan Observer calls upon all Sri Lankans to comprehend the complexities of the situation and ‘demonstrate maturity and foil all the conspiracies’ that have created divisions among them.

Conspiracy.Very true.Planned and executed by MR & GR with the connivance of JHU and BBS.

Conspiracy, yes against Muslims of Sri Lalnka.
Not against the relations between Sri Lanka and Pakistan – they can continue to be buddies while Muslims suffer in Sri Lanka!
Who are the conspirators?
Sinhala Buddhist mass murderers and instigators Mahinda, Champika, Weeravansa etal, and terrorists Gota, Gnanasara, Wiratu and their cohorts.
Don’t forget the international dimension after Gnanasara conspired with Bin Laden of Burma recently.
Stupid Pakies don’t know what is cooking against Muslims in Sri Lanka, Burma and Thailand. It is a wake up call to them.

Ranjith / July 1, 2014
Doesn’t matter whether LTTE is worried about Muslims or not. The fact is Sinhala racial monster is sharpening its claws against the Muslims as well. As it has been doing against Tamils, it is turning it on against the Muslims.
But the funny thing is, the same monster was fed with tonnes of ammunition and aerial fighting capabilities by the Pakistanis on daily basis. Arm shipments arrived weekly at Colombo harbor. Pakistani pilots carried out sorties on Tamils daily. Now, Muslims are targeted by the same monster.
Pakistanis don’t care what is happening in Aluthgama or Beruwala. They only care about a base for their SIS personnel in Srilanka to sabotage India. Therefore this was well planned by Gota.
Attack on Muslims going to continue. Muslim countries will keep supporting Sinhala racist war criminals Mahinda and Gota when and wherever possible.

“The LTTE have suddenly discovered that they love Muslims.”
In fact LTTE and its leader loved Sinhala/Buddhists:
LTTE worked for Premadasa and fought against the IPKF.
LTTE/VP received money from Sinhala/Buddhist Rajabakse and won the election for him.
LTTE/VP dispersed Muslims by ethnically cleansing them from North making them a dependent community to please Sinhala/Buddhists.
BBS loves LTTE hence made an effort to meet them in Norway.
BBS loves LTTE hence it made contact with former LTTE supporters in the East.

Look at the sad face of the Muslim mother holding the child:
Pirapakaran was a toddler like this child during the anti-Tamil pogrom of 1958. A Muslim Pirapakari may emerge with a purdah from this carnage:
Is it what the Sinhala Buddhist terrorists want?

Native Veddha,
Not sure you are naive or pretending. For your information, Pakistan is fighting a separatist war in Baluchistan. As Sinhala Buddhist racist has been doing against Tamils, Pakis also fighting a brutal war against Baluchistan. It is a separate Kingdom unlawfully invaded by Pakistanis. Thousands of Baluchistan people been massacred by occupying Pakistani Army. But the spirit of Baluchistan fighters keeping Paki army at bay. Therefore, Pakis want to know the formula used by Srilankan genocidal war criminal Army to eliminate Baluchistanis for good.
Pakistan has been massacring Muslims(Baluchistanis) in thousands already. Therefore they don’t give damn about 4 Muslims killed by Gnanasara and Gothabaya in Aluthgama or anywhere.

Ranjith / July 2, 2014
My problem ?? I don’t have one. You are so naive to ask whether Pakistan following Srilankan war crimes to handle their minorities. It is obvious. Srilankan war mongers managed to carry out a genocide war on Tamils with the support of all International powers, especially India, USA, EU, China, Russia, Pakistan and so on. No one cared about what Srilanka has been doing in Vanni jungles under the name of “Humanitarian Rescue Mission”. Mahinda and Gota managed to massacre more than 150,000 innocents from 2008 to May 2009.
For many countries who are fighting their minorities, this Srilankan model has become a formula to victory without considering the human cost.
India wanted the model to be tried in Chatishgar and Nagaland. Nigeria wanted to try this model. Now Pakis want to try the model on its minorities.
My opinion is, Srilanka has developed a model to massacre a large population without any international pressure and still calling it a Humanitarian Rescue Mission. And many countries going to follow this in the future.

Pakistan has generally been a friendly country to us from the beginning. The relationship is not without faults. During Mrs. B’s time Pakistan reneged on a G-to-G Rice deal when world prices shot up. When approached PM Zulfikar Ali Bhutto simply ignored Sri Lanka’s appeal made at higher levels. In recent times, Pakistani sources have played a prominent role in the trafficking, sales and distribution of harmful drugs in the country vastly offending the
Visa-on-Arrival facility for Pakistanis. Recently this facility was withdrawn before further damage is done. There remain in Sri Lanka a large number of Pakistani Visa over-stayers causing much official concern. Some Pakistani groups have also, for some years now, armed and facilitated local Islamic groups in the Batticaloa District to forment religious strife there. The more dangerous feature is the supposed involvement of the Pakistani Spy network ISI where action calculated to harm South India’s interest have been taken from Colombo by ISI men, using local Muslims. It is feared Pakistani sources will continue to cause security problems in nearby Tamilnadu using local
sources.
In international fora Pakistan has backed Sri Lanka when we needed them. It is left to our officials to carefully study our relationship with them which has both positive and negative features.

Marwan / June 30, 2014
The government is running scared of an imaginary threat of reactionary influence from Taliban forces from Pakistan. All they have to do in that case is to intensify alertness and security at points of entry. Instead, they removed on-arrival Visa, imposed monitoring of movements within SL, deportations of those already in-country under UN sponsored asylum for victims humanitarian project, by canceling Visas for those already settled in SL. In short, a real fear psychosis has crept in, and anything Muslim or remotely connected has been subject to intense scrutiny. They caused the problems for Muslims living in Aluthgamas and Beruwela, and now they expect a backlash or even an opposition of some kind.

In Pakistan every thing is a conspiracy.
Today Imran Khan has announced a march
to protest the conspiracy behind how
Nawaz Shariff came to power rigging
elections.
Pakistan Taliban, the Government there
says, is hatching a conspiracy to kill
political leaders. Asking Pakistani visa
overstays in Sri Lanka to return to Pakistan
is also a conspiracy.
Why can’t there be so many conspiracies
when the ISI (like in Colombo) is running
the show in Pakistan media. They know how to
manpulate their media.
Not one word has been said by Shariff about
the speech by the BBS Gnanasara. All they want
the world to believe is a conspiracy. Whom is
the ISI kidding?

We must have fools in the leadership of this country. Just because someone is trying to cause problems here, are they so stupid to not know it, and do nothing about it? It does not matter who is behind this, the most important point is, the rajapaksa’s are doing NOTHING to stop this madness and ethnic violence.
Absolutely NOTHING. They could have stopped this long time ago, but they still sleep with the BBS, the dogs
who are responsible for all this bloodshed and violence. In fact they make that “phone call” to release the dogs from prison. So let’s put the blame where it belongs first.

Pakistan is a “Pariah” state. Its only Sri Lankan President and G .L.P Foreign Minster who are keeping them on the head and dancing. Pakistan is the country that gave nuclear technology to other countries illegally. Pakistan is the country that is sending terrorists to India through Sri Lanka. First of all Pakistan should talk about their own backyard before worrying and poking their nose into Sri Lankan affairs. Above all Pakistan being a Muslim country should have assessed the situation carefully and condemned the Sri Lankan Rajapakse regime, but they did’nt. This shows how Islamic they are. Also with the new Pakistani Prime Ministers evolving close relation ship with Narendra Modi, President Rajapakse and GLP may find themselves in the middle of the sea “ship wrecked”.

The editor of this PAKISTANI OBSERVER got to be dumb.. IS he trying to reverse thw decision of “visa on arrival” to be reinstated? wont happen. He also should KNOW the current govt HAS BLOOD in its hands YES TAMIL and Now Muslim blood… H e should of reminded the Ruling elite that IT WAS the Pakistani Pilots who helped in eradicating Terrorism NOT TAMILS.. and it is not ROCKET SCIENCE for the Pakistani Pilots who had the co-ordinated of the NORTH to have the Co-ordinates of the south and WEST and a few fighter jets bombing crucial spots would silence the BBS and the Govt..moreover when the Middle Eastern countries revoke the work and residency visa’s of Maids and other then send em back to Sl.. we have multiple problems.. BUT I believe GR and MR are clowns who can JUGGLE… in front of the UNHCR…
Isn’t it ironic that Navy Pillai was a Tamil and the one to take over in August is a Jordanian Prince who is a Muslim…Seems that the Gods of evil ( Karma) are doing things to the country blessed by the triple gem… Ummm food for thought…

It is the western countries that want Mahinda Rajapakse to fail.
This is part of that.
It is true that Extremist ISlamic organizations are active in Sri Lanka.
So, lot of factors are working here.
/
Sri Lankan / July 1, 2014
Yes, you’re absolutely correct in saying the enemies of Sri Lanka want it to fail. However people like you are handing it in a golden platter by regurgitating the lies BBS and their henchmen keep repeating. If there are Extremist Islamic organizations active in Sri Lanka and if they are working against Sri Lanka then there are laws against that. There is also the armed forces who clearly were able to defeat much larger extremists. If these so called Islamic extremists exist then no one has showed a shred of evidence. Nor have shown any motive. Even Gotabaya Rajapakse has said and I quote (see dailymirror.lk interview today);
“I am not saying that there are Muslim terrorists in this country. The Indian intelligence agencies have told me that there is a possibility of Islamic Terrorism being based in Sri Lanka to act against India. However, we investigated these concerns and found that there is no merit in these concerns or claims. Our intelligence agencies are very active on these issues.”
Do you have any Muslim friends ? Maybe it’s time you met one. They too have kids like us and have the same fears for their welfare. They are as human as we are. Be a Buddhist first and try to apply the philosophy to your thoughts and actions. Maybe then you will have some Peace in your mind and you will stop being paranoid.

This newspaper is in denial and a recipe misdirect the president and his brother Gotabaya who is the patron of the fanatical BBS.
If this riot was the work of the enemies of Sri Lanka who wish to damage the relationship between Sri Lanka and Muslim countries whose work was the anti-Tamil riots of 1983? The editor must understand that racism and anti-Islamic feelings are inherent in the veins of extremist Sinhala-Buddhists.

Abdul Haleem / July 1, 2014
Pakistan is not interested in the Muslims of Sri Lanka.
That is a myth.
Their successive high commissions here are packed with
ISI operatives to destabilise South India. Therefore,
they will not speak a word to displease the Rajapaksa
Government.
Only now Rajapaksa has opened his eyes and sending back
the visa overstays. Otherwise if something worse happend
in Tamil Nadu, Sri Lanka will become the worst pariahs
in India.
Muslims in Sri Lanka should notlive under the delusion
that Pakistan is their friend.Like they encourage the
Taliban, Al Qaeda and game refuge to Osama bin Laden,
they will destabilise Sri Lanka if we don’t watch out.

Ranjith / July 2, 2014
Abdul Haleem,
Destabilizing Srilanka? Are you serious? You don’t need some one from outside to come and destabilize. Mahinda and Gotha have already started the process. They have massacred more than 150,000 Tamils in 2009. Now it is your turn to dance to their music. Stop supporting the Sinhala racist regimes. Stop going behind your Muslim politicians. They take your votes and sell them for their parliament seats. They will never work for you, all about their pockets. Not only that, the Sinhala monster will pretend these Muslim ministers as supporters of Government policies and there are no problems for minorities. Is this what you want?
Get real. Support a politician who will speak about your grievances and genuinely fight for your rights. But unfortunately, I don’t think you have one at the moment.

Pakistan is a failed state. Sri Lanka is a failed state. Not so strange bedfellows. Pakistanis kill Muslims. Sri Lankans kill Muslims. ‘International Conspirators’ is a safe scapegoat offered by the Pakistani Muslim killers to their Sri Lankan Muslim killer counterparts.
Allahu Akbar
