*India's Abstention at UNHRC is nothing for Sri Lanka to be obliged about*

Those in the Indian-basket were quick to shower merit upon India for
deciding to be on the fence in a decision that had nothing to do with Sri
Lanka and everything to do with India beginning to realize that India's
balkanization was not far off. India's decision also had influence of the
South Bloc given that the Congress was now functioning as only a caretaker
government with India awaiting the country to be led by Modi whose Hindutva
policy if not compromised may just help India out of the abyss it has
compromised itself to via the Gandhis and Maino family.



While Sri Lanka cannot ignore the Gulliver presence of India geographically
as well as realize the geopolitical influence India exerts globally, it
does not require Sri Lanka's leaders to prostrate before Indian leaders
similar to how Tamil Nadu politicians behave before Jayalalitha. In order
for Indian leaders to command respect, our leaders must behave and act with
respect. To do so, Sri Lanka must exert leverage politically without fear
and that requires Sri Lanka to be bold enough to spell out some hometruths
which sets India on the back foot. No sovereign nation desiring respect can
simply remain silent without reminding India of some of its crimes for
these are aspects that can easily silence India's decision makers.



The list must cover:



·         *India's role as a state-sponsoring terrorism and terrorists* :
India cannot shy from acknowledging India's role in taking unemployed Tamil
youth from Sri Lanka and training them in batches all over India by retired
Indian military personnel to be handled by Indian intelligence. This took
place well before 1983 and in the 1970s as proved by scores of sources that
include the Jain Commission report, US think tanks and essays of Indian
military/intelligence personnel

·         *India's role in financing and arming these trained Sri Lankan
Tamil youth* and providing them not only the logistics but allowing Tamil
Nadu to be used as a hub.

·         *India's role in silently watching LTTE and other militant groups
use Chennai*

·         India's role in allowing Catholic fishermen to supply arms
clandestinely to LTTE and other militants and allowing these militants to
run away and use India as a place of refuge.

·         If India's RAW was handling LTTE the question of the 1983 riots
being part of the plot cannot be ruled out with the mob riots turning into
a bonus. The NIB was well aware of this but there was no counter-mechanism
in place. Let us not forget that the rioters were not ONLY Sinhalese -
there were Tamils and Muslims involved too.

·         With TULF the main political opposition party in 1980 the Tamils
really had no valid demands to make thus, the 1983 became a perfect excuse
to bring out LTTE from hiding. Thus, reiterated again is that *July 1983
was choreographed by LTTE/RAW and this needs to be investigated.*

·         Misconceptions also need to be corrected. It was not after the
1983 that Tamils fled to India. Tamils had roosted in India as far back as
1979 and these were all linked to smuggling and other racketeers operating
from Jaffna and it was these who were recipients of RAW training.

·         With this reality we now need to wonder *whether the orders for
the Tamil groups to kill Tamil policemen on duty, Tamil mayor Duraiappah
and shot at Sri Lanka Army in 1983 that was said to trigger the riots was
ordered and plotted by the Indian RAW?*

·         *The Tamil Grievance theme was a perfect means for India to get
its dirty hands into Sri Lanka using the 'concern for Tamils' card.*

·         The accusation that J R Jayawardena was a CIA agent next leads us
to ask if he was fooled into signing the 13th amendment given its relevance
for the West at a future date. We see how far the 13th amendment is being
pushed in particular by foreign governments through the UN, its bodies and
puppet heads. Let us not forget that JR's expectation that US would come to
his aid failed and Sri Lanka ended up receiving parippu drops and Indian
troops.

·         India also stands guilty of scores of heinous war crimes that
include *4000 rape of Tamil women (which LTTE has prepared evidence of),
IPKF firing at the Jaffna hospital killing even doctors on duty, IPKF
killing scores of Tamil unarmed civilians.* The Sri Lankan Government
cannot shy from conducting these investigations given that India has
demanded Sri Lanka carry out its own investigations. Simply because India
is now trying to protect its own turf it should not mean that Sri Lanka
should compromise its turf for history should have given us enough lessons
to show that India is neither a friend and not to be trusted either.

·         India's Achilles heel is its inferiority complex and obsession of
its big brotherly image over its immediate neighbor leading India to feel
itself too small to reach out to its neighbors as equal partners. Thus,
India has and will continue to treat India's immediate neighbors the SAARC
countries as mere subjects that must take India's orders. This has left
India rejected by neighobors in particular the public of these countries
who have no hesitation to vocalize hatred towards India's successive
Governments. This is a major failure in Indian diplomacy and likely to be a
key component when the balkanization of India is put into fast track mode.



Where Sri Lanka's leaders have repeatedly failed is to go overboard in
their relations with India. In not understanding the dynamics with which
India functions showering India with this that and the other and in
particular handing India strategic stakes on the platter would never
provide the reciprocation that Sri Lanka's leaders look for. A prime
example of that was the manner that India proudly associated with the 2
US-backed Resolutions in 2012 and 2013. India was well aware that Sri
Lanka's leaders were docile enough not to take action against India and
take away stakes that India held in Sri Lanka though the Sri Lankan public
demanded such for its government. It was a gamble India took and a gamble
well taken for Sri lanka's own cabinet ministers were found declaring that
Sri Lanka had forgiven India.



Obviously with this type of Sri Lankan Government reaction needless to say
we should not be surprised that India treats Sri Lanka as a doormat. We
have given to India every strategic stake possible and not stopping there
we have given the fox key areas of the North which it has been hungry for
without realizing the manner that the RAW had infiltrated among the Tamils
to create groups of armed youth. Looking back at many of the post-conflict
isolated incidents we cannot overrule an Indian hand now that Sri Lanka has
been a Wessanthara to allow even an Indian deputy mission to be setup in
the North as well. These are all political blunders with dangerous
repercussions.



Many may scoff at Mrs. Bandaranaike for her lack of education to govern but
the foreign policy under her helm was at an all time high and she commanded
great respect and her statements sent via her emissaries are tantamount to
prove that she was never one to be taken for a ride and the manner she came
to the aid of Vietnam during President Kennedy's tenure using her officer R
S S Gunawardena played a key role in ousting Ngo Diem for which Vietnam
remains ever grateful to this day. Pakistan's gratitude towards Sri Lanka
never omits fondly mentioning Mrs. Bandaranaike as well even to this very
day. Thus, there were key decisions that Sri Lanka took at diplomatic
levels in the tenure of Mrs Bandaranaike that shaped the respect given to
the country and that respect prevailed to Sri Lanka even from India. Mrs. B
was never shy to ensure Sri Lanka's turf was protected.



When we see that India is a victim of its own doing it is for Sri Lanka to
ensure that we keep India at arms length for India's vulnerability at
present should not afford Sri Lanka to be tied down to India too much and
this entails the leaders to take closet look at the stakes given to India
and the likelihood of that falling into India's enemies as well as Sri
Lanka's and the entire Indian ocean region itself. Some of Sri Lanka's
locals who function as Indian stooges are likely to be double agents
working for the Christian agenda as well and keeping them in close
governance circuits is committing hara kiri.



It is a good time that Sri Lanka's policy makers take up the 13th amendment
for given the Christian eelam line being towed it is upto Sri Lanka's
leaders to put forward the argument that the prevalence of the
13thamendment is just as dangerous for India as it is for Sri Lanka.
Whatever
India's aspiration to become a superpower it cannot escape the reality that
India remains led only by a handful of people in a country with billions
unable and unwilling to think beyond their nose which makes destabilizing
operations a cakewalk when the time to disunite India is decided upon by
the Christian west.



For India to realize the realities of this, all India has to do is to take
the statistics of how US and West is funding evangelical groups and
organizations and how far they have worked their way intricately into
interior India and influencing Hindus in masses. It is for this reason that
India needs to have a Modi come on stage but how far a single man can
change the status quo of a nation influenced too long by Western NGOs is a
question that will be answered in the manner Modi is allowed to lead India.
As things stand a look at the propaganda inside India against Modi it is
not too hard to tell how people are being influenced in India and who is
funding that.



The story is no different in Sri Lanka as well.



Given these realities there is really no requirement for Sri Lanka to lay
any red carpet for India. We cannot forget that Sri Lanka's 30 years of woe
started with India and if we are talking about accountability India needs
to own up for this once and for all.

India may now say it is not in favor of an international investigation
having saddled together with US for the 2 previous Resolutions, but India's
statement comes in the light of India beginning to realize that the kettle
in Kashmir will easily boil over as will the IPKF crimes now that the US
ambassador has also shown interest in covering the entire spectrum of
crimes in Sri Lanka.

These are all ghosts that lead back to India's backyard.



If we are to help India off the hook, India needs to reciprocate for a
change. India must stop using 13th amendment thinking India is in a
position to annex Sri Lanka if the situation goes off track. India must
realize that its size may be one thing but as things stand the Congress
Government has removed every semblance of integrity India had left to
manoevre itself and simply pretending to be the big bully among the
neighbors is unlikely to get India anywhere. It is good for the South bloc
to realize that it needs to reshape its thinking that imperial Indian mode
of planning and plotting is likely to lead India nowhere except to end up
doing the dirty work on behalf of the West as a loyal sepoy poodle so that
the West can nicely divide India into bits as it did to Yugoslavia and then
eye Russia and China.



If Sri Lanka's leaders have not had time to sit down and study the dynamics
of how the West functions and the entities tasked to fast forward these
plans it is a good time to start now for we are walking into some rough
weather and Sri Lanka does not deserve another 30 years of trouble created
by our own mistakes.



What India and Sri Lanka should jointly agree to is to repeal the
13thamendment and remove obstacles for the West to manoevre in the
Indian Ocean
rim.
