We have ways to deal with people like K.P, says SL Army Commander

A person living abroad, wearing a tie and coat, like K.P. (Kumaran Pathmanathan) cannot do what Prabhakaran and his second rung leaders did in the jungles of Mullaitivu. If K.P. tries to do that, Prabhakaran will rise up as a ghost (bhoothayek) and wring K.P’s neck, saying, “Are you trying to take what I did for 30 years away from me?” We have methods to deal with people like K.P, says Army Commander General Sarath Fonseka during an interview over state-run TV Independent Television Network (ITN).

True to Gen. Fonseka's words, Prabhakaran, Soosai, Pottu Aman and a few others grew with the terrorist organization. They underwent hardships to bring it up to the level it was, before being annihilated by the Sri Lankan forces.

KP, on the other hand with two red notices by the Interpol and wanted badly by India has become the spokesman for the Tamils who are still pursuing Eelam.

KP was also appointed the International spokesman for this group.

"Sri Lanka would not recognize Selvaraja Pathmanathan, the official international plenipotentiary of the Tamil Tigers, in view of the fact that he was wanted by the Interpol for various crimes across the globe, the country’s Foreign Secretary, Dr Palitha Kohona.

The Sri Lankan government has taken serious notice of the Norwegian government’s acting as a link between the US Under Secretary for Humanitarian Affairs, Sir John Holmes, and Pathmanathan, in order to get the Tamil Tiger rebels to allow the thousands of Tamil civilians to leave the war zone to government controlled areas.
The Norwegian Ambassador in Sri Lanka was called and ticked off by the Sri Lankan Foreign Minister Rohitha Bogollagama for facilitating this link without prior clearance from the Sri Lankan government.

It is funny that most of the European countries which have not been supportive of the Government of Sri Lanka, during the last offensive to eradicate the menace of terrorism, are in contact with this man but make no effort to report him or his whereabouts to the Interpol.

It is felt that KP, who lives a totally lavish life with the money collected from the poor Tamil, more often that not by force, by selling the name of Eelam, will try to use some of the loot to launch a party which could enter the main political stream. For, he can't even dream of getting into Prabhakaran's shoes and carrying a fight.

Do we see any double standards here?

What more proof do you need than above? LTTE money talks.

"state-run TV Independent Television Network (ITN)."

There is some serious contradictions here. State run and independent?

This commander and his forces killed tens of thousands of innocent Tamils and estimated

300 000 are held in detention camps and he is giving an interview about a ghost. How important.

For the first time in history I'm in agreement with you B12N. It is not an independent channel and they should change their name. But then, no media ever is.

"This commander and his forces killed tens of thousands of innocent Tamils and estimated "

The commander and his forces eliminated the cancer that was killing Sri Lanka and its citizens for 30 years. And yes, those citizens were innocents too.

300,000 in camps - And who do you think is looking after their welfare? That new "Leader" of yours, K.P. the international criminal?

Chanka,

KP wishes to be the new leader. There are stories coming out that he took Prabha on a ride during his last few days. Details have been obtained from the satellite phone uncle Prabha forgot to destroy as he was in a 'sh.. funk' during the last few hours before his death.

Don't get worked up just because terrorist supporters come out with a lot of personal theories while sitting comfortably in their foreign home eating Yorkshire Pudding or snake gumbo or other goodies. (Ironically, none of these theoreticians live in Sri Lanka and are heavily dependent on tamilnet and similar sites.

Anyway, lets wait for the answer.

This was a live interview. Gen. Sarath Fonseka would have told the same thing even if he went on the not so state run Tamilnet. He does not mince his words. He only minces his enemies.

The fact is that Sarath Fonseka did something which is still keeping a part of the Tamil Diaspora in shock and denial. He beat the hell out of their God Prabhakaran and his goons.

It is easy for terrorist supporters to make comments from abroad. Nobody spoke when almost 200,000 innocent civilians were kept in detention by Prabhakaran as his human shield.

Those who are crying about the refugees from abroad can come down and help them out if they feel so much. Better still, get get KP to help out with his ill-gotten money.

It is sad to see some these die-hard terrorist supporters from abroad now backing a criminal who is wanted by the Interpol and India. What standards?

Keep up your bold work, B12N !

KP is educated, well groomed, honest and smart. He is the ultimate and born leader to guide LTTE in the correct path to secure a homeland.

This previously unheard of Dept. for Diaspora Affairs(DDA) fellas tell Tamilnet that they would not comment on KP's acceptance that our beloved ex-leader Mr Pirabaharan is dead "without the explicit authorisation from the leadership". It is learnt that they await him to emerge at the correct time. Perhaps, to claim "Hey guys, I am well and truely dead !! " ??This is unfair by KP.

Besides, the Management of Hell (MH) does not permit emerging to it's incumbents.....

Worst, I can't find any of the old references to KP in our sole-representative website TamilNet anymore? Could it be that those hooligans of defense.lk have taken over the upkeeping of TamilNet? This indeed is an obvious act of cyber-genoside !!!
