In his first interview since 2010, former defence secretary of Sri Lanka Gotabaya Rajapaksa spoke about the geopolitical situation in the region, the changing character of Indian diplomacy, the meaning of peace, and his own role in the war. At the peak of the war against the LTTE, then defence...

There were not much to do for LTTE. They have used the old government apparatus. Besides, Tamil people showed considerable support for the LTTE specially the educated civil servants. Most of the top level leaders of the LTTE had come from the infamous Velvatithurai area which was famous for...

We could deal with it easily except the fact that it will bring about terrible backlash from Middle Eastern countries where many Sri Lankans are working. In Eastern Province some state owned lands are being poached by residing Muslims. They do this trough their local MPs by forging fake deeds...

I never supported nor justified what Gnanasara did. I spoke against him vehemently from the days of the BBS's inception. I think you would remember what I said in those days. Sadly they have been realized. Gnanasara is a tricky subject that might be handled with care. Improper handling could...

Kattankudi, Darga town and many other Muslim dominated cities are functioning like there are no laws in the country. No helmets for the bikes, No traffic policing, No civic sense; these are but few failings of Muslim dominated areas. It is not about policing what people can wear or not. But...

Sinhalese were fighting with the Tamils from the time immoral. That is why Sinhalese have the protective mindset. Tamils and Indians should understand that and respect it at the same time. How do you know Vijaya and his 700 clans usurped the island from Tamils? This is a the myth created by...

Well I think Buddhism was over in India before the advent of Islam. If not Buddhism should have replaced Hinduism.

This is not a issue about Islamophobia. This is an issue about Sri Lankan state's avid political correctness. They don't even apprehend suspects if they happened to be from Muslim community. (I may have exaggerated it a little.) If government decided to be impartial then first they should act...

No. You have been mislead.

It is not like Kashmir you know. Army is restricted to the camps. Tamil politicians run the daily shows. There is no restriction for them to welcome the displaced Muslim population.

Well of course. They have a all Tamil provincial council for the Northern province and most of all the opposition leader is from the biggest Tamil political party which have won majority votes consecutively in Jaffna area. What more power do they need?

Well, Tamils of Jaffna are no longer willing to accept the expelled Muslims back. They continue to thrive in the resettled areas of North Western province.

There was no debt trap for Sri Lanka to sell off Hambantota port to China. The entire cost of the port accounts to around 1.3 billion US dollars but Sri Lankan government had burrowed since 2015 more than double that amount from other sources. If Sri Lanka was willing to save the port they could...

It's a good thing social media sites are blocked. It is the prime method of communication for the anarchists. The thing I see here is that people have lost their confident in the Police and the government as a matter of fact. The government attitude is not going to help the cause either.

If Muslims do not need to assimilate properly with others and do not believe in a particular state. They should move to country where they are governed by Islamic laws such as Saudi Arabia.

Well they are terrorists of course. We don't trust Muslims. That is the most simplest answer. What kind of law are you proposing to protect Muslim people? Are they enforced in Pakistan or any other country? This is the handy work of the unarmed minority...

Government did nothing about these things. That is why Buddhists have taken the matter into their own hands.

http://amazinglanka.com/wp/muhudu-maha-viharaya/ This is one such example. Sinhalese have been fed up with authorities and they have taken law in to their own hands. There won't have been Sinhala extremists if Muslims behaved well. They don't and we have to teach them how to behave on our own...

Muslims were lawless before people burnt their houses. That is the reason they have being treated badly. What a farce. If we were Indians there won't be any Muslim trouble in India. Atleast learn that from us.

Muslims are acting lawlessly. That is why Sinhalese people have taken law into their own hands. So instead of respecting the state laws and customs you suggest Muslims to take arms if they can't to what they like? This is the exact reason why Muslims being targeted all around the world. Sri...
