Sri Lanka is considering setting up a South African-style Truth and Reconciliation Commission after shrugging off David Cameron’s demands for an independent inquiry into alleged atrocities at the end of its 25-year civil war.
Cameron, speaking at the biennial summit of Commonwealth nations yesterday, repeated demands for an independent war crimes inquiry and set a deadline of March before pressing for an international investigation under United Nations auspices.
But President Mahinda Rajapaksa refused and sources in his government suggested he would instead sidestep international investigators by favouring a less confrontational option based on the South African model, which paved the way for democracy but led to blanket amnesties for past crimes on both sides.

David Cameron is batting to get few more votes from BTF /LTTE Diaspora in UK, not realizing leather ball would hit his own Glass House,
..With dismal HR record of UK, not court martialling UK troops for killing 1.2 million innocent Iraqis in search of Weapons of Mass Destruction ,they never found.
What a Hypocrite is David Cameron??
Of course star spinner Muttiah Muralidaran got him & LTTE’s Channel 4 jokers out in a spin in his subsequent interview with C-4, telling Lanka is 1000% better now after the war.

//David Cameron is batting to get few more votes from BTF /LTTE Diaspora in UK,//
This is not accurate — those electorates that have large Tamil populations are firmly non-Tory; even if ALL Tamils living in these switch their votes, Cameron cannot win those seats. Unlike in Sri Lanka (which, according to Chris Nonis is a vibrant democracy — a democracy which has a cabinet minister who tied a government official to a tree!!), UK does not have proportional representation. It has a first-past the post system. Hence Cameron is not after BTF/GTF votes.

The CHOGM has exploded in Rajapassa’s face – he has spent billions to white wash his image, but instead the corruption and rot that the Cursed Rajapakse family is in Sri Lanka has been exposed to the whole world.
The demand for war crimes in now a ticking time bomb with a March deadline!
So , guess what the Sinhala Buddhist racist Lamb – Paathala Champika has who was silent all this time while Rajapassa wasted billions to celebrate British Colonialism in the hope that he could white wash his image, has found his tongue.
Pathala is mouthing off his usual racist crap about the Tamil diaspora conspiracy again – so lets be prepared for the next round of attacks on minorities to begin! But Pathala has some explaining to do as to why he kept silent all this time while Rajapassa was wasting funds entertaining his colonial masters while in debting Lanka…

I’m amazed that Muttiah Muralitharan decided to tell Cameron he has been “misled”. In effect he is saying that all those wailing Tamil mothers Cameron met was an elaborate plan to MISLEAD the British PM.
I wonder if people realize the significance of this. Here is the best know Tamil in the world telling the only world leader who wants to tackle the accountability issue directly that what he has seen in the North is a MISLEADING hoax.
Muralitharan is sure to have taken the wind off of the sail from Cameron’s push for accountability. He could have just talked about cricket with Cameron. But he has decided to play for Rajapaksas this time; but definitely not for Sri Lanka.
/
Rajash / November 17, 2013
Well Murali whose wife is from Tamil Nadu, but in Sri Lankan he only speak in Sinhala or English, should have stayed in his cricket bubble and spoke to Cameron of all the great charity work he is doing.
As you know in Sri Lanka either you are in with Mahinds or in side a white van.
My reading of the situation is Murali was sent in as a night watchman with clear instruction to bat for Mahinda without losing Mahinda’s wicket and and see through the last few days until Cameron took his flight out of Sri Lanka

Nettabomman / November 18, 2013
Even with his suspect intelligence and education of little consequence Murali, of Estate Tamil origin, did not have to play the role of being a Rajapakse spokesman – giving the impression to the country and the world Tamils have little to complain. He must remember he, his parents and siblings escaped death by inches in 7/83 by those whom he is trying to sanitize now. It is good to know he is quite successful and contributes to reconciliation through the bat and ball. But he must be careful not to enter sensitive areas outside his comprehension.
With all the billions he has made, has he anything to show he has done something for his people – the people of Indian origin in the hill country a.k.a. Tamils of the Malainadu.

Nettabomman / November 20, 2013
Just happened to see Murali’s Daily Mirror interview On Line.
It further exposes his poor ability to speak in English, which in no way brings credit to SACK. He should spend more time with Kumar Sangakkara and Mahela – to improve his English speaking.
The rest of what he says in the interview makes little sense.
We liked his Cricket and his services to the country. Whenever, we went to see him play he was one spin bowler who often clean bowled world class batsmen. He must stay with Cricket and speak publicly, as far as possible, only Cricket.
We welcome his peace moves through Kushil’s Seenigama Project and wish both all success. Tamil and Diaspora politics are well beyond
his intellectual reach.

It is an insult to the entire Tamil community and particularly Tamil women. He may me doing to get a ministerial post but it is an insult to Sport as well. I call upon all the Tamils of the world to show their protest against Muttiah Muraleetharan and he should not be welcome at all from his participation with Tamils.

Murali is another corrupted fellow like the Sana boy of Matara.
He and his brothers are in billions of rupees of mega business deals with the govt and this is a contract from MARA.
This man is a shame in living a luxury life in Colombo 7 and giving interviews which he have nothing to do with.

Banda / November 17, 2013
Ajith, You are a typical jingoistic Tamil.
Everyone knew Velu and his gang had kidnapped thousands of underage children for 33 years and force trained them to be sentries. Some destitute females children were raped by LTTE men acting as of the Sri Lanka Army. Such victims were brainwashed to be suicide bombers. Mothers and fathers of those children never knew where their children were. Mothers and fathers thought their children were kidnapped by the Army.
When LTTE ran short of cadres, they raised this dad’s army called ‘makkal padai’ to whom LTTE gave a quick training to guard the bunkers. Those old men and women and mothers were sitting ducks in front of an advancing army. It is those missing people that those women were crying about.So, what Muttiah Muralitharan says is nothing but the truth.
Cameron is living in a glasshouse and throwing stones at others. Why?
Cameron and his buddies had breached UN Resolutions 1970 and 1973 and attacked civilian targets in Libya. They murdered Gaddafi grandchildren in cold-blood. William Hague, actively supported terrorists who were proscribed as terrorists on its own list to commit atrocities against the Libyan civilian population. David Cameron was a key player in this human rights outrage. David Cameron has committed war crimes in the Libyan Civil War.

We have evidence about the kidnapped Tamil children by Sinhala army and raped by Sinhala army and we are prepared to bring those evidence to international courts. Let the International courts make a decision. We are not talking about what happened in Libya, Irag or Iran. Our subject is about what happened in this soil by our Government.

Truth Commission is a great idea to heal deep wounds of this country.
It must not be a Rajapassa style staged drama. That we must make sure.
People like Defacto CJ Mohan Pieris should be kept miles away from it. Otherwise it will lose all credibility.
We do not have enough prisons in this country to punish all who have committed unspeakable crimes here. All the way since 1948.
Our King is doing this coz’ he has no other choice, but do it. It is not heartfelt. Then again most of these people are heartless anyway. No surprise there.

Truth Commission, if set up will pop Cameron’s bloated ego.
Cameron’s “Grand Standing at CHOGM” has annoyed the “dumb & stupid” Sri Lankan electorate badly. It is rallying behind their President, who is under attack from a hypocritical ex-colonial master.
Cameron’s stupidity, arrogance & corrupt domestic political agenga have just secured a massive vote block for MR. Just wait for next round of Presidnential elections.
Thanks UK based LTTE die-ass-pora & CH4. You won again. Sri Lanka lost. Yet again.
Our despotic King Rajapassa, his gigantic family, army of cronies & henchmen have every reason to smile. Behind the scenes. Masters of their craft which is corrupted politics.
PS: I correct my statement. Sri Lanka as a nation and all of her people will be caught out. Not Cameron.

in South Africa, they set up the TR Comission after
(a)afterdismantling Aprthied
(b)after giving the blacks voting rights
(c)after electing the first majority black government
(d)after electing the first black president
they also gave witness protection and immunity form prosecution to all violence and genocide commited by balcks as well as whites
Sri Lanka should;
(a) give constitutional recognoition of all race , telgion, language as equal
(b)return all lands grabbed from the Tamils to build HSZ, Hotels under pretext of HZS
(c)withdraw all army from NE
(d)devolve full power to all PSC’s
The they should set up a TR Comission and protect ALL witness, Tamils, Sinhala, Muslims, LTTE, Army, Rajapakses..etc
the TR Comission should enlarge it’s remit to also include bribery and swindling of public money
Then only there will be true reconcilaition in Sri Lanka for the good and prosperity fo all

If anybody had any hope of reputed, high profile businesses and brands coming to setup themselves in a beautiful, tropical country after the war you can forget about that now. They wouldn’t risk their hard earned reputation by doing business in a lawless country where people are said to be exploited. All you will get are the uncouth businessmen who see an opportunity for exploitation while rule of law has been effectively put away.

Ajith / November 17, 2013
It is not playing cricket or football to catch Cameron or Muttiah Muraleetharan. No one is interested in appointing Commissions as delaying tactics. We had enough experience of commissions and all party conferences. Every body knows what happened in Sri Lanka over the six decades under the rule of natives of this island. First of all we should understand there are issues with our governance (law and order and justice), there are issues with diversity (discrimination), there are issues with human rights (militarisation, protection of human values), there are issues with economic policies (poverty), and so on. We have bloodsheds in this land in 1958, 1962, 1970, 1977, 1983, 1989,1995, 2009. I don’t think any other Nation had such a level of violent culture since Independence. Our land is now enriched with hundreds of mass graves all over the island since 1970. We had Banda-Chelva pact, Dudley-Chelva Pact, District development Councils, Dimpu Talks,Chandrika proposals, Rajiv_JR Indo-Lanka accord, LTTE _Sri Lanka Oslo agreements, Rajapakse All Party recommendations and so on. We had number of Commssisions from Sansoni to LLRC.

A South Asian Truth Commission is probably the brainchild of Kamlesh Sharma in his unsolicited services to the Rajapakses to save them from
imminent deeper disaster at the international level. There are many retired judges in countries in the region willing to do what they are told provided they get something in return – making such a possibility unacceptable. There is a story going round Sharma threatened the President of Mauritius the chances of that country hosting CHOGM next will be jeopardised “unless you come to Sri Lanka’s CHOGM in November” Canada, Britain and other countries will serve the Commonwealth cause well if they move for a probe on Sharma’s on his recent suspect activities.

How can war crimes and crimes against humanity be resolved by a Truth and Reconciliation Commission? It is a joke and Cameron and the world community are not going to fall for it. The South African commission dealt with a few deaths of black South Africans but in Sri Lanka the mass murder of over 40,000 Sri Lankan tamils by their own government bears no comparison by scale of numbers.
The continuing suppression of tamils – their lands being confiscated, militarisation, thousands living as refufgees while the military are occupying their properties, the disappearances, the continuing rape of tamil women and the suppression of the free press etc. etc. cannot be whitewashed by a truth & reconciliation commission.

All the points that you had given in your comment were not discussed.Obviously you are right because only 85000 voted for mahinda while 350000 voted for the TNA,but when you look at the fact that 85000 voted for the government you have to admit that there must be something that made them do that and murali was right that some development and amenities are indeed being provided.Gota messed it really with all those points you raised.While mahinda seems to be doing things that get the votes gota does the opposite.

The setting up of a truth Commission to forge reconciliation among the Sinhalese !tamils and Muslims is something which could have been done no sooner the war ended. instead the Govt. Bulldozed the LTTE war cemeteries and banned mourning for the dead Tamils? memorials for the fallen soldiers were erected on top of LTTE war memorials. Not stopping at that The president made an announcement to say that there are no minorities and majority communities but there is only Patriots and traitors? The defeat of the tigers are being celebrated annually in military parades to showcase the military might of the Govt. Tamils on the other hand are humiliated without any recourse to justice? What more the last days of the war was telecast over the state media to the glee of the Sinhalese and garnered votes at elections in favour of the govt? Can a Regime like this follow the magnanimity shown by president Nelson and the irrudite chairman of the South African Truth Commission Bishop Desmond Tutu? Mr TC will be a sham to hoodwink the international community? It was president CBK who at an Independence Day celebration apologised to the Tamils for atrocities perpetrated on them and demanded a similar apology from Prabhakaran towards the Sinhalese, Tamils and Muslims who were killed.
/

“chairman of the South African Truth Commission Bishop Desmond Tutu? “
That is why the chairman of the Srilankan Truth Commission should also be bishop Desmond Tutu.Better late than never.
If mahinda is appointing his own chairman might as well have a international independent investigation of war crimes as cameron said.
