    Mayor Sadiq Khan

    RE: London Elects Its First Muslim Mayor

    “London has elected its first Muslim mayor as Sadiq Khan delivered a resounding victory for Labour, ending eight years of Conservative rule at City Hall.”

    Congratulations.

    There are two News Items Here.

    1. London Elects a Labor Mayor after 8 years.

    2. The Mayor Happens to be a Muslim.

    3. Not All Muslims are conservative.

    4. Being a Muslim is a personal Belief, just like in Christianity, Judaism, Hinduism, Buddhism. Sikkism etc, one of the 4,000 odd religious beliefs.

    The Key is that these myths and beliefs are kept personal.

      Good.

      You better convince JHU, Gnanasara the saffron clad thugs and the Sangha chiefs.

      Please have a word or two with IH and HLD M for they seem to want to climb tall trees to collect honey as we did when we were young.

      It is not easy to climb a tree, let alone in their second childhood, one false move ……

        “The Key is that these myths and beliefs are kept personal.”

        This is very hard, because they all were brainwashed from a very young age to various degrees.

        “You better convince JHU, Gnanasara the saffron clad thugs and the Sangha chiefs.”

        This is very hard too, because they all were brainwashed from a very young age to various degrees on Deeepawansa, Mahawansa and many other Myths, like Vijaya’s grandfather being a lion etc.

        It is like the Greek Myths and Bible Myth ( Joshua) that the sun is going around the stationary Earth, which is STILL believe by 25% of Americans, 34% of Europeans, and perhaps by 50% of the Paras, in the Land of Native Veddah Aethho.

        However, this has to be consistently exposed.

        Call or Reefer to JHU as Para-JHU.

        Call or Reefer to Sangha as Para-Sangha.

        Call or Reefer to Ganasara as Para-Ganasara.

        If challenged, tell them the proof is in their bodies as DNA, and if not Para, get it tested. If you can get then to take you to courts so much the better.

        Put up Posters, all over.

        Para-Sinhala Ravya, Para-JHU, Para-Sangha, Para-Sinhala, Para-Tamils, Para-Muslims, etc. Expose, Expose and Expose.

        Reference:

        Mitochondrial DNA history of Sri Lankan ethnic people: their relations within the island and with the Indian subcontinental populations

        Journal of Human Genetics (2014) 59, 28–36; doi:10.1038/jhg.2013.112; published online 7 November 2013

        Through a comparison with the mtDNA HVS-1 and part of HVS-2 of Indian database, both Tamils and Sinhalese clusters were affiliated with Indian subcontinent populations than Vedda people who are believed to be the native population of the island of Sri Lanka.

        Still there seems to be confusion on God. Are the above Paras still confused too?

        See what this Yemeni Jew is saying about God, the God of Jews, Muslims and Christians.

        A Jew explains why Allah is the one and only God, his opinion and belief.

        https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=65zyICBKBPI

        Uploaded on Feb 5, 2008

        A must see! The legendary video in which a Jew rebuffs the claim of evangelicals, newly edited and now in annotations!

        Even Jesus said Allah. According to an Aramaic dictionary, ( http://www.peshitta.org/lexicon/ ) the word for God in Aramaic (The language which Jesus spoke) is “Aalah”, which is the exact same thing as the Arabic “Allah” since in English there are many ways to spell a foreign word (Example you can spell the Muhammad’s name in 27 ways, including Muhammad and Mohamed). Just visit the link and type “God” if you don’t believe me, then scroll down to “Pronunciation”

        So Christians, if your god Jesus said “Allah”, it means the Muslims are using the correct word for the creator!

        The word Allah is better than the word God and is purer since God can be pluralised (gods) and genderised (goddess), the word Allah is more suitable for being HIS name because it CANNOT be genderised nor pluralised (in Arabic) since it is genderless and single, an example in English would be the planet Mars, it is genderless (you cannot say Marsa or whatever it would be if it could be genderised) and it is unpluralisable (you cannot say Marses), it simply wouldn’t make sense to genderise or pluralise this planet, the same goes for Allah (الله) in Arabic, so in essence IT IS SUPERIOR to the word God.

        Lets not forget that Arab Christians, and Jews (as is the case in this video) say Allah, and have been saying it before there were even any western Christians!

        Jesus said Allah too, so if you consider yourself a serious Christian you should start saying it to follow your god Jesus. So please, open your brains a little, it’s good for you.

        Now to see what different prophets called God.

        Abraham PBUH called him El shaddai

        Moses PBUH called him Elohim (see Genesis)

        Jesus PBUH called him Allah

        Muhammad PBUH called him Allah

        Two prophets called him Allah, and they are the most known of prophets, Muhammad and Jesus peace be upon them. Nonetheless all of these are Semitic words, so as far as I am concerned, any Semitic word for God is acceptable, but why use a European word for Allah when not a single prophet used a European word?

        Also, did you notice something? All of these words for Allah begin with either EL or AL, this is because in proto-Semitic (an ancient language which all Semitic languages, such as Arabic and Hebrew, evolved from) the word for God was AL or EL, Abraham PBUH spoke proto-Semitic and he called God “El shaddai”, “El” here meaning God and “shaddai” meaning mountain, so basically he called God “God of the mountain”.

        The Semetic languages evolved in a way that they retain the word AL/EL at the beginning of the word, but there is an additional “lah” in Arabic and an additional “lohim” in Hebrew, I hope this clarifies.

      Quite right Amarsiri. Congratulations to Mr. Sadiq Khan and Hon. MP Jeremy Corbyn, the latter hopefully the next British Premier. I think Sadiq’s victory was also attributed to revenge politics for sending off former Hon. MP George Galloway. If the US could have created history by electing the first African (of Kenyan descent) American president and a ‘Muslim’ (covertly says he is Christian), then what the hell of a big deal is this for Saqiq to be elected to a less glorified position as London Mayor? There are several Muslims also elected to the US congress and several leading American and Canadian diplomats who are Muslims. So what is the big deal about this? On the other hand, I guess the Islamic xenophobes can now bash their opponents as the the Islamic “Kalifaat” to have conquered Europe.

      Wera Modaya in our colony jumping to conclusions,

      The only man to brazenly go to Jaffna was UK PM Cameron while you were hiding in a woman’s skirt! It is the sickness of your fathers of independence who hid at Tamil Nadu.
      Tsunami even Clinton, UN Sec Gen, or Foreign Sec USA was not allowed

      The English distrust of theories and slogans, the Englishman’s way of slowly bungling, if necessary, but in any case slowly finding his way, the Anglo Saxon’s love of individual liberty, self-respect, good sense and love of order, are things which are more powerful in shaping the course of events in England and America than all the logic.

    DAILY MAIL COLUMNIST KATIE HOPKINS VOWED TO RUN NAKED DOWN REGENT ST IN CASE SADIQ KHAN WINS LONDON MAYORAL STAKES.

    The Telegraph of London reported under the heading “Katie Hopkins vowed to humiliate herself in public if Sadiq Khan was elected Mayor. Will she follow through?”
    Adam Boult reporting in the Telegraph of 6th May filed this report’ “It’s the question in everyones lips in the aftermath of the London mayoral election now that Sadiq Khan has been declared winner,will Katie Hopkins follow through on the pledge she made earlier this week.

    In her column in the Daily Mail on Wednesday in which she gave her firm backing to the Conservative candidate Hopkins wrote “VOTE ZAC(SADIQ’S RIVAL).BECAUSE IF YOU DONT,ILL RUN REGENT STREET NAKED WITH A SAUSAGE UP MY BUM” I’ve even tweeted as much.And if that horrifying prospect doesnt get the Zac vote out,nothing will. Sure enough here is the tweet.

    Katie Hopkins tweet “IF SADIQ WINS LONDON,I WILL RUN NAKED DOWN REGENT STREET WITH A SAUSAGE UP MY BUM IN PROTEST”
    Now whole of London and the world at large is awaiting eagerly to see whether Katie Hopkins will abide by her promise

          colin,
          The term “cake” has a long history. The word itself is of Viking origin, from the Old Norse word “kaka”. The Portugese Vasco Da Gama himself was a thief and terror (he learnt his trade from the Arab’s 800 year rule) and they learnt it from León Spain which still provides the professionals and priests. So that is where the wine and kaka/cake came from.
          There was no word called Gal or stone in Sinhala but in Tamil கல்
          Kal- Cinnamon Gardens was owned by Tamil relative of the legend is still alive and safe there.(non-political professional- raja Vellala). The geographic north of India and China with less water produces wheat.
          The Portuguese transported many Buro’s from Kotchikade at Kerala to Kochikade Negombo and Colombo up until 1970 – they call themselves Sinhalese today. “didn’t our modayas say eating stones and drinking blood” yes & no because I don’t know but most probably yes until they ate and drank it.

          Be careful when you report statements made by journos because journos lie through their teeth to sell their product.(everybody’s opponent is wrong- so never take matters seriously because you may be wrong-;)
          Cheers, and let’s hope the Indians change the present regime by the end of year.

    hurrah for the amercans and british for showing the way to others.

    Will we ever have a tamil ruler one day,like the many instances in ancient times starting with the joint rule of sena&guttila(237-215BC) and elara the Just(205 to 161BC) or will it be gothabaya(244-257AD)minister of state,seized the capital anuradhapura and king sri sangha bodhi fled to the forest,and later surrendered.Will history repeat or not,that is the question.
