I Am A Hero: MR

Former President Mahinda Rajapaksa has said that his heroism is reflected by the prolonged period he has taken to make a decision concerning his re-entry to politics.

Mahinda Rajapaksa

Mahinda Rajapaksa

He made this remark today in response to a query by a journalist during an event in the Abhayarama temple in Narahenpita. When he mentioned that he has not yet made a final decision on whether he would re-enter active politics, the journalist had questioned him as to why he was taking so much time and whether this inability to make a decision is befitting for him, who has been declared a hero. Responding to that question, MR had said, “That is heroism” at which point, a group of his supporters who had attended the event had cheered and chanted slogans demanding his return to politics. He had then pointed at the crowd and said,”You don’t need to ask this from me . . . the answer is right there. . .”

The former President had also said that that its important to learn from one’s mistakes, rectify them and ensure that even dissenting views and opinions are respected. When a question was posed regarding the allegations that have been levelled against his brother Basil for being responsible for the fall of his regime even by his allies such as Wimal Weerawansa, he had said, “That is his opinion, everyone is entitled to hold their opinions. We should respect others’ opinions and rectify our mistakes.”

      Mr. Mahinda Rajapaksa

      “Former President Mahinda Rajapaksa has said that his heroism is reflected by the prolonged period he has taken to make a decision concerning his re-entry to politics.”

      You call yourself a hero? Hero for Whom?

      Liara, Crooks, robbers and Criminals, LCRCs?

      You are a wimp.

      The true Hero is Lt. Gen. Sarath Fonseka. You yourself recognized that before you stated ling and getting credit for others bravery and heroism.

      Bomb targets Sri Lanka army chief
      Last Updated: Tuesday, 25 April 2006, 21:50 GMT 22:50 UK

      http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/4941744.stm

      At least eight people have been killed in a suicide bomb attack on Sri Lanka’s army headquarters, while the head of the army has been seriously injured.
      Lt Gen Sarath Fonseka is said to be in a stable condition after surgery in Colombo, where the attack happened.

      The military has blamed Tamil Tiger rebels for the attack and launched air strikes on their positions in the east.

      There has been a surge in violence in Sri Lanka recently, and the Tigers last week pulled out of planned peace talks.

      Responding to the latest attack, President Rajapakse said he would not be cowed by terrorism.

      “I emphasize and caution that one should avoid mistaking our desire for peace and our responsibility to achieve it as a government, as weakness,” he said in a televised address.

      This is the first suicide bombing in the Sri Lankan capital since July 2004, and the biggest attack blamed on the Tamil Tigers since they signed a truce with the government in 2002.

      Though the ceasefire still officially holds, Sri Lanka appears to be heading back to war, the BBC’s Dumeetha Luthra reports from Colombo.

      Fake identification

      Military officials say the attacker was a woman who made herself appear heavily pregnant to conceal the explosives.

      She presented fake identification and said she had an ante-natal appointment at the army hospital inside the complex, unnamed officials told the Associated Press news agency.

      A Sri Lankan military spokesman who spoke to the BBC said the attacker blew herself up as Lt Gen Fonseka was leaving his office “just in front of the army hospital”.

      Twenty-seven people were wounded in the attack, the army said.

      It is not clear if the bomber was included among the eight people said by the military to have been killed in the blast.

      The army headquarters are in a heavily guarded compound in central Colombo.

      Lt Gen Fonseka is reported to have suffered severe abdominal injuries and was taken to hospital.

      A team of 10 surgeons operated on him and he is now said to be in a stable condition.

      Lt Gen Fonseka was appointed head of the army shortly after the election of President Mahinda Rajapakse last November and has taken a hard line against the Tamil Tigers.

      The Sri Lankan military says it has begun an aerial assault on rebel positions in north-eastern Sri Lanka, telling the BBC it could not stand by after the attack on its headquarters.

      The military said the Tigers had earlier attacked Sri Lankan naval positions in the north-eastern district of Trincomalee.

      A Tamil Tiger leader in Trincomalee, Mr Ezhilan, told the BBC that civilians in the area had been fleeing shelling by the army.

      July 2004: Woman suicide bomber tries to kill government minister
      July 2001: 18 people killed and planes destroyed in attack on Colombo airport

      In pictures: Sri Lanka blast
      Police said the explosion in Colombo bears all the hallmarks of the Tigers.

      Tamil Tiger rebels frequently use suicide bombers in their operations – and are thought to have carried out nearly 200 attacks since the first suicide bombing in July 1987, when a bomber in a truck filled with explosives killed 40 soldiers.

      The rebels have denied being behind recent attacks.

      Talks on hold

      Escalating violence in the north and east of the country has left about 100 people dead in the past three weeks.

      The Tigers began their armed campaign for a separate homeland for the island’s Tamil minority in the 1970s.

      Efforts are continuing to persuade the rebels to return to peace talks in Switzerland. Last week they pulled out of negotiations, accusing the government of attacks on ethnic Tamil civilians.

      The team of Norwegian envoys acting as mediators in the conflict has condemned the latest bombing, but said it was not drawing “any immediate conclusions about the possible perpetrators”.

      If you are a real hero – then even Juliampitya Amaraya or Wele suda, Lansa et al Thunmulle Wimale that represent street masses are all should be heroes. Anyway, let others decide who you are. Before long there will be time that the average will decide who you are.

      Country need a strong leadership to drive the economy,
      MR, PB, CB governor was taking the country in the right direction.
      It is shame MR govt, could not handle the cost of living better.

      I dont think the UNP is capable of of handling the country.
      Neither MS. NOTHING PERSONNEL.

        Srinath.gunaratne ,

        “MR, PB, CB governor was taking the country in the right direction. It is shame MR govt, could not handle the cost of living better.”

        Had the troika been taking the economy in the right direction for the last 10 odd years ,wonder why the cost of living got sky rocketed ? what economy does MR know ? what economy does Basil know ? only through cheating MR became the president (Bribing Prabakatran ) thus he had proved his capabilities in all aspects of good governance , what had he left behind after his idiotic ten year rule ? thanks to FM Sarath F , LTTE terrorism disappeared under MR’s political leadership , that’s the only plus point MR can claim for , even the war victory and its postmortem MR couldn’t handle , he had behaved as a village thug before the civilized world , MR thought intimidating and backing rouge states could rescue him from the international community , we Srilankans are extremely lucky to have MY3 as our leader now , if not by now we would have been under the trade embargo from EU and USA.

        Only racists and dimwits can’t see this reality , i know no matter how hard one tries to explain these real facts , these low IQ , racists won’t accept the bitter truth !

          It is advisable not to waste your 2 cts worth to guys such as Srinath Gunaratne. He is more less like blind fools that feel only MR et al did a greater service to this country. No matter billions that MR abused deliberately are being revealed. Nothing no listen to that, but still for these buggers, MR is a king. It is all because these men just swallowed the pills distributed by MR through state biased media men. That Hudson should be hung by his balls to learn the average a lession. Every monring the way he telecasted issues as if the lanka is an another tyranic regime akin to far poor afro states.

          Not racists, but they behave as if they are permantly deaf and blind.

          It is very common to some lankens, they just talk not seeing anything right. I really dont know where this is coming from : this kind of attitudes are not even in the indeginous far prmitive folks in latin or afro coutnries. Most of the latter folks dont have school education but they are able to see it right. But our folks – actually considerable masses of the nation stay addicted to their throughts. We dont need to talk much NUMBER ONE EXAMPLE is D-A-Y-A-N PACHATHILAKA: And Buruwanse and Gembanpilla are just political LE MAPILAS – blood suckers.

      Insiders say the Rajapakse camp is mightily scared their finances are running low on account of these staged shows to mislead the country shouting the message many want MR and his thieves back. MR does not have the regular money bags to spend on these “Mahinda-back-to-Power” staged project. They are all secretly negotiating with the Sirisena-Ranil-CBK bandwagon to keep their mega-billion dollar enterprises flourishing.

      The English-daily The Island and its Sinhala counter-parts are furiously working on the MR come-back. Today, that pseudo-Nationalist
      Dr. Gunadasa Amarasekera writes in The Island aimed at inflaming the Sinhalese masses. Gunda Amerasekera claims of the 4 plans of the “International Conspirators” the 4th is to hand over Eelam to the Tamils – with Sirisena lighting the lamp. When Dinesh G, Gammanpilla, Galabodaathe and other extremists put in their 2 cents worth for this extremist project the time will be ripe for another 7/83 – which is part of the Rajapakse plan.

      It’s a pity once again Sri Lanka is doomed to collapse whereas neighbouring India, Malaysia and Singapore are moving towards the 1st world status. You know whom to thank for this.

      It is true Mahinda is a hero in real drama. He acted very well as a human rights activist, liberator and a Sinhala King. He had the gut to cheat all almost every Sinhalese and robbed the nation completely. Luckily he was ousted, otherwise nothing will be left for ordinary people. It is surprise why the government & judiciary has not taken any action to expose his crimes, misuse of power, and fraud.

      ROOTS ROOTS OF THE SOUTHERN COCONUT HEADS SILVA:

      TO all the Peresi Koppa Fernando’s and Ramona’s, Pera brollies like chicken .!!

      Professor Politician Dictator Bluffer Fascist, António de Oliveira Salazar !!
      His Council of Ministers briefly served as acting President of the Republic in 1951; he was never President of the Republic, but was the virtual dictator of the country in the manner of Spain’s Francisco Franco and Italy’s Benito Mussolini. He founded and led the Estado Novo (New State), the authoritarian, right-wing government[a] that presided over and controlled Portugal from 1932 to 1974. In 1940, Life called Salazar “the greatest Portuguese since Prince Henry the Navigator” [2] and Oxford University conferred him the Honorary Degree of Doctor of Civil Law.[3][4]

      Just like the Portuguese Army bluff the International Community- or the west. Carnation Revolution was the end of the Estado Novo, the longest-lived authoritarian regime in Western Europe, and the final dissolution of the Portuguese Empire.

      Carnation Revolution of the Portuguese (the Portugese left India only after)In the aftermath of the revolution a new constitution was drafted, censorship was formally prohibited, free speech declared, political prisoners were released and the Portuguese overseas territories in Sub-Saharan Africa were immediately given their independence. East Timor was also offered independence, being invaded by neighbouring Indonesia afterwards.

    There is a total disconnect between what he says and does or did when he was in power.He is one ruler who did not not respect even the decisions/opinion of the Judiciary.He did not respect the opinion of the media and is responsible for murder,dispearences and physical harm to journalists.He does not respect the mandate of the voters who rejected him.He never respected the rule of law leave alone the opinion of individuals.He must be of the mistaken belief that the voters are gulible and would rally around a born a gain hypocrite who prostituted the constitution,undermined Democratic institutions,favoured his family and henchman and messed up the economy.

    Native Vedda,

    I am so glad that we killed off the LTTE and didn’t pander to the line taken by Al Jazeera in the two videos you referenced. MR was absolutely right in the videos – objecting to the Indian invasion of Sri Lanka was not chauvinism- it was what any self-respecting citizen of a country does. Anyone, including NGO-wallas, should be tried and hanged for treason, which is the law of the land, if they ever try to resurrect the Nazi-LTTE cult.

      Vedda Killer

      Sinhala/Buddhism teaches the Sinhala/Buddhists to “Kill the Veddah, Rob the Buddha, Blame the Sudda”. No wonder you chose to call yourself Vedda Killer.

      “I am so glad that we killed off the LTTE”

      We who?

      “MR was absolutely right in the videos – objecting to the Indian invasion of Sri Lanka was not chauvinism-“

      What did he do? Did he take up arms to fight the Hindians?

      Cry baby went to Geneva to complain about the Sri Lankan armed forces, wanted UNHRC to intervene in this island’s domestic affairs.

      Then the cry baby paid VP good fees (cash in hand) to win the elections and then went to Hindians (big sister) to complain about Premadasa’s naughty boy VP.

      “it was what any self-respecting citizen of a country does.”

      Any self respecting citizen not only would have kicked the invaders back to whence they came but also protected fellow citizens. On the other hand self respecting citizens would not have let the foreigners invade this island in the first place.

      “Anyone, including NGO-wallas, should be tried and hanged for treason,which is the law of the land, if they ever try to resurrect the Nazi-LTTE cult.”

      What would you do to the tsunami hora who stole from funds allocated to victims? Its up to the Hindians to decide when and whether to resurrect LTTE. You don’t have a say in the domestic security policies of this island. Hindians decide you simply obey.

      If you have any problem please contact Hindians who would probably tell you where to get off.

    No this guy is not a hero. He was basking in General Fonseka’s achievement. Yes MR gets credit for giving a firm political leadership to the war strategy, for playing off VP in his own game, and for giving the two fingers to foreign meddlers. But is he hero material, no certainly not. General Fonseka takes that.

    For a long time various people have been trying to carve out portions of this country for their own. The Cholas did it then. In the recent history VP tried to carve out the NE for their own but failed. Then we see MR doing the same, trying to carve out the South for him and his family, with an Airport, a Harbour, Cricket ground and all, to make his Kingdom. Without exception all have failed including MR.

    What bloody Hero? A cardboard Sando. RW will put him behind bars after giving him the chance to contest for the people to see his real popularity at an Election with a complete Independent Election Commissioner’s Department, where MR cannot manipulate, to shut all his supporters including Dayan J.

      are you is that the right strategy ? RW has been undermining the real stupidity of our Sinhalese masses , if and when MR were to contest , i’m certain that MR would elect as an MP from any part of Srilanka , after his election to the parliament he would do every thing possible to get the majority consent for his name as the PM , RW let go his first government by being a gentleman , RW’s thinking needs to change , he thinks letting MR come to active politics would split SLFP into half , this strategy is not only going to lose his premiership but also CBK and MY3’s help as well.

      PS: Glad that CBK is around , as long as she is around , MR would have very low possibility of getting back to top seat.

        You are dead right. MR will have no chance in the near future. All those who are in power today will earn merits the way they handle the ministries. THis situation would improved day by day even if JVPrs would cry further not to have punished the culprits of previous regime as promised in election pledges of MY3. Yes, stupid masses in large have all powers to reelect MR or any thug – should closely be focused than has been done by RW or any others in power today. I think the bandy move of the current regime could achieve their aims easily since they have not been cruel to anyone as it had been under the rule of Mahinda.

        Srilal,

        The 5.8 mil votes MR received was all staged and in a Presidential election. Electorally he will not have such a backing and especially not having influence over the Election Commissioner’s Office. Besides even if he succeeds in being elected as an MP, which is very remote, he will be unseated and Jailed for the frauds he has committed. So do not worry. Either way MR will be fixed for good in time to come.

            Lanka can not come out of the mess except enjoy a rustic pick pocket government at best.
            Buddhism has to be rescued for the island to negotiate with outsider nations or be like China for 100 years- cultural revolution; that is what the left leaning SWRD started- so you have free education to spawn coconut heads like Passa and family the drug dealing terrorist selling arms in the high seas.

            Xi was the first to mention to Obama that small nations are the double edged pricks in our wars.
            Russia has a trillion dollar Gas deal better than EU with China and China does not have to cross the pacific or Indian Ocean much. The silk route runs overhead of SARC manned by Germany Russian Spanish Russian railways. They don’t need an expensive, terror infected and slow sea route anymore.
            India re-signed the defence treaty with Russia. Both WW wars started in the Balkans and that has been let in turmoil with the breakup of Yugoslavia. Ukraine sold its aircraft carriers and dumped its nuclear arsenal now it has no –go.
            So CIA has its work cut short- start holding hands with Russia and make love which is what the Europeans wanted from all it’s wars.
            Do you hear a hum from coconut heads Vietnam where India is operating for gas?? Nada.
            It’s the big three only as per Shanghai Defence treaty.
            Now will allow the small nations to join the club anymore after Xi made a mistake – non-interference is a Chinese policy especially when trade big rich nations is at risk.
            The EU Foreign Secretary from Italy has learnt it from the Modi snub and has been reprimanded by the majority of EU.
            The days of the women barking at EU are over after Hillary disclosure of “convenience” of official e-mail and bugging Merkel. China has better laws than Lanka for women.
            As it is creating diversity within the European race is not easy and encouraging immigrants with other culture is a farce – UKIP and fascist of Europe on the rise because of boat people.

      Voters capacity – 15 Mio

      Amount of votes obtained by this self proclaimed HERO -5.7 Mio (38%)

      MY3 obtained not having held enough election rallies – 6.2 Mio (41%)

      Newly added votes – 0.9 Mio (6%) (every 13 among the voting eligibles has contributed their vote for a change)

      So keeping all these realities is important to realize that deaf and dumb masses are still on the side of the abusive man. Like or dislike this is the ground and sad reality of the nation. They are people that behave born blind/deaf when it goes for voting. FOr them defeating LTTErs in his term is interpreted that megalomaniac should have SHAIBABA wonder making talents to have mastered that – fully forgetting the war had been fought for a period of 30years. The relay race was defeated by local forces in his term meaning not that he should eat the cake alone – as Dr. Dambare Amila still says, at the time he was elected prez in 2005, MR was trembling to fight against LTTERs. Diverse forces had supported and strengthened his hands by standing by there. Then only his moral became that strong. But for a huge price he could do so, even today the curse is following him and the nation – since all those got killed (civlians) are also part of srilanken community. Very same man to go fully wrong abusing the taxpayers funds for his family extravaganza was what people destined next. If this BALAWATHA – unique man andhis wisdom solely caused to eleminiation of terror, why could not the same man succeed in the aftermath ? WHY WHY WHY WHY ?

    actually a Zero… who has to boost his ego at the drop of a hat… This power greedy hog will ONLY contest under Dinesh G or Wimal weeraya’s part at the next general Elections. He wont get nomination from MS to contest on the SLFP ticket. This sore loser should be added to the Guiness Book of records to have hoodwinked the masses, amassed money he would of NEVER imagined of making not just in this life but a 1000 more lives, and from being an EXECUTIVE President of a country who lost and want to come to power as a Prime Minister… the ONLY one on record… shameless ass, who is visiting temples abusing the fuel quota he is entitled as an Ex President wasting tax payers money… His cheap publicity will not work no more…sore loser he is…

      Puka@,
      brilliantly articulated.

      The problem today is there is no respect in the society made by MR et al. They cant make a distinction between good and bad, fair and unfair, justice and injstice, thugs and rights bound ones, right and wrongs… all is mixed and entwined as nothing could easily help them getting apart. That confuses the average those have nothing but to accept anythign being aired so it can take further many more months until the stupidity of the masses will leave them. It can then be somewhat late, but it is worth giving time. Even if BC investigates former men and women, but the average is not praised with that – they dont consider how it had been before the 8th (boxing day) – could anyone go and make any entry as easy as today ?
      Could any women go against any of the bunch that would do anything to protect MR et al then ? Women were publicly attacked while MR did not nothing to protect them… but the same cruel soul went to kids and kissed them to send the fake message around. The man was acting a film as no other leaders in SA did.

    After organising the so called meetings through Wimal, Udaya etc now he is pretending to be a hero. He is a power hungry hero, of course. He is trying to come into power with whatever means and using these journalists to prompt questions suitable for his purpose. He can fool some but not all.

      Mahinda is hero for all

      a) uneducated buggers got posted to Diplomatic position regardless of their credentials – just for the purpose of diplomatic impunity

      b) all the uneducated men and women across the island – that have all qualifications to be naive – gallible gawky folksthat would just believe anything being explained to them. Billa and electrichair were the terms that MR machines used to tame them.

      c) that got their drug trafficking, pharma, agro chemical industrries got promoted by all illegal means with the direct approval of MR oligarchy

      d) that profited billions by grabing the state funds for their own contenments… example Sajin Vasse, Jonsten, Rohitha et al.
      The inveistigations based on these men are in function now

      e)that was then the social scum but raised their head through the henchmen of Rajapakshe – all these were but in illegal means

      f) that made billions by SO CALLed ROAD AND CONSTRUCTION….

      my wish is all thease to be investigated impartially and the state to confiscate Rajapakshe assets ( people s funds) and develop the nation only by that sums rather than taking any further loans.

      IF Former billionaire Lalith Kothalawala to face it in that way, why not Rajapakshe and his kth and kin that grabed tax payers funds should return them in good will. We can t allow THIRISANNU to loot us anymore.

      You may be standing on your head to see it that way. Totally the opposite is proved by 62 lacks of eligible voters in the country. Sure your folks are also 57 lacks. But most of them are poor people that were kept away from checks and balances of the MR tele dramas that hyped up by hand picked MEDIA men of Rajapakshe Oligarchy.

      “Mahinda is a hero and a true leader !!!”

      Hero meaning:

      A person, typically a man, who is admired for their courage, outstanding achievements, or noble qualities.

      Brave man,
      Champion,
      Man of courage,
      Great man,
      Man of the hour,
      Conquering hero,
      Victor,
      Winner,
      Conqueror,
      Lionheart,
      Warrior,
      Paladin,
      Knight,
      White hat,
      Chevalier

      Does Mahinda fit into any of the above categories?

          The man is smeared with excrements – as a rat came from the toilet pit.
          So you guys want seek him to guide you again ?

          Or those who got killed as civilians in the nothern part ( are they not srilankens) ?

          Or those who bathed using his water at Temple trees producing unbearable bills ranging to lacks per month?

          Or dealers that got happy to keep the STUPID man in the office for their existence ?

          Or Welesuda and Lanza the drug kin pins that pumped millions to his election campaigns – in the same time making the nubmers of drug addicts seen every corner of colombo housholds ?

    Firstly the political orphans Wimal, Gamman, Vasu and Dinesh who keep on blowing the trumpet giving false hope to MR, so that they can make use of him to get some votes if he agrees to stand for election, which I doubt MR would ever fall into that trap. MR wont even get a million votes if he stand as a candidate under any other party. Fact is vast majority of votes he received during the previous election are for the SLFP in nature.

      he doesn’t need a million votes to get in to Parliament , don’t get confused with the presidential election , PE is gone , he will never be able to win another presidential election but certainly will win a general election , after winning a general election he would use his old tricks(Bribing with millions of $, stolen money) to be the PM of the country .

        I did not say for him to be elected to the parliament, I am not naive like you. I was referring a million votes as a whole for his entire new party, in case if he decides state under a different symbol and party.

    Here are some quotes about heroism. Is MR a modern Nelason Mandela? A hero wronged?

    Heroism on command, senseless violence, and all the loathsome nonsense that goes by the name of patriotism – how passionately I hate them!
    (Albert Einstein)

    Mandela’s heroism is the heroism of a man who suffered so badly for what he thought of as freedom. And yet when he had the upper hand he has this incredible self-control and these incredible leadership qualities.
    (Bono)

    As a rule, all heroism is due to a lack of reflection, and thus it is necessary to maintain a mass of imbeciles. If they once understand themselves the ruling men will be lost.
    (Ernest Renan)

    MR may not be a hero. But he made heroes and heroines out of normal people during his regime.

    The silent mothers who kept the kitchen fires going in the face of skyrocketing prices. The fathers who did several jobs to keep their families fed. The children who managed to laugh, while being under nourished. These are the true heroes.

      What about the women whose husbands and sons were abducted in broad daylight by White Vans? What about the mothers whose sons disappeared in the North. What about Ekneligodas wife and son -still crying.What about Lasanthas family and also what about that innocent 10year old boy whose only crime was to be the youngest child of a terrorist leader. Wasnt he mercilessly shot to death. Yes of course, even in death he is a real hero. But YOU????? Bloody scum who gang-raped the country with your brothers, sons, in-laws and extended family of henchmen. You certainly CANNOT be a hero. You are a capital plunderer and that bitch Karma will catch up with you soon. Watch out and keep your mouth shut coz we know who you are now.
