ascistic farce founders - Dr Vickramabahu

We are all angry with a sense of disgust. We who braved the risks of
resisting Mahinda Rajapaksa’s regime knew that the death could be
standing at our door-step. To day we laugh merrily about the statement
made by President Maithripala Sirisena which expressed this reality: “I
would have been seven feet below the ground where I stand today if we
had lost the election”.
Fascistic threat was defeated electorally by the people but this reality
is not yet over. Mahinda group did not build their regime to abandon it
for nothing. As expected they retreated and now coming back, licking
their wounds. They have begun to mobilize with venom. The thrust of the
game could be seen when we look at those that slept inside the floor the
parliament. Then, during Mahinda regime, we were angry with the liberal
radical parliamentarians of the opposition for not using parliament for
sathyagrha; when the country was being sold to global capital including
Chinese investors.
People in Lanka have no pity for those who now rally around to protect
the privileges of the Ex-President. Did the Ex-President protect poor
from evil? What can the oppressed expect from a president who betrayed
the very General who helped him to win the war? What did he do with the
sacks of gold robbed from the areas of war, especially from Mulathivu
and surrounding areas? What did he do to protect a poor worker who was
assaulted by a Cabinet Minister and who also tied him to a tree and
forced the person to admit that he tied himself up? Did he act against
Ministers who openly claimed that they made journalists to flee the
country? The former President remained indecently silent when his own
colleague, Baratha Lakshman Premachandra was killed. As a threat for all
others the regime sent sleuths from the criminal investigation
department to record a statement from Mahinda’s erstwhile friend
Vasudeva Nanayakkara. All cabinet ministers shut their mouths
afterwards. Thousands have disappeared during the Rajapaksa regime. Dead
bodies were found thrown into shrubs. Some were assassinated in broad
daylight like Lasantha and Raviraj. Raviraj and Joseph Pararajasingham
were parliamentarians.
Mahinda led fascistic chauvinist movement understands how to inculcate
fear and violence. That is internationally known method of this kind of
politics; thugery is the application and they know it gives the best
results. This is what they are unleashing again, now. Muscle power
combine with crude words and vulgarity were taken inside the parliament.
The President was there and he was watching; we should not
underestimate his ability; but liberalism has failed in many countries
by agreeing to compromise with fascistic forces. Obviously President
Sirisena should not give in to these corrupt forces that planned to kill
him with the family in case he was defeated. On the other hand it is
the duty of the left to mobilize masses and use counter pressure to
bring order in to the present political process. Unfortunately the Left
that participated in the struggle to oust Mahinda is divided, and
sectarianism has cut across the efforts of the Left. Effort to
compromise opened the door to a shameless lot to be drawn into the
yahapalana governance process. These are the people who violated
multiple elections laws, used violence and “bought votes” misusing state
resources to continue in power. In an independent and free election
dozens of these crooks in the United Peoples Freedom Alliance (UPFA),
would certainly get defeated. The fascistic regime of Mahinda robbed
samurdhi funds, and one brother that slipped out of the country with
looted funds has come back. The people are happy that the authorities
are now taking action against him for robbing the funds of the poor
which came under the Divi Neguma Programme.
Clearly somebody is paying for the expenses, for the mobilizations
taking place now, to support fascistic politics. Bus loads were used to
bring in people. Masses were brought to welcome Basil and to maintain
the political carnivals of Mahinda supporters. Surely the devotees of
temples visited by Mahinda do not spend money for his political visits.
Who is the rich uncle that will spend the funds for the ‘massive’ May
Day rally being organized by the fascistic gang? Surely we know that
these political groups have little or no funds at all. Hence one could
be sure these expenses are paid by Mahinda from the spoils gotten from
deals, tenders and contracts rubber stamped by the ‘Cabinet of Mahinda’.
These brothers and the fascistic gang knew how to rob people and the
recourses of this country. They put into practice ‘make the rich richer,
then rob the rich and let a little trickle down to the miserable poor.
On the other hand each according to his/her ability robs the state
coffers cunningly and ruthlessly’. MNCs that got the most out of these
treacherous rascals are sad about the end and hence these external
masters will not take the sovereign people’s wishes kindly. Looking at
the rallies and carnivals conducted by them in the recent past to make
plans for the come back, we firmly believe that a conspiracy is on
against the sovereign people of Lanka. The powers who paid for the
extravagant Mahinda regime want the reinstatement of the despot. From
the beginning these forces were against the passing of the 19th
amendment. The fascistic ideology demands a chauvinist state intolerant
to any kind of democracy. It is clear that the rogue state they built
required unbridled power, with something more than simple immunity. This
is not about the democracy, western or Asiatic that we wants to
discuss. They are not fighting with each other to end poverty in Lanka.
These forces who robbed from Divi Neguma funds and others who are trying
to cover these acts are yearning to re-establish the mafia state.
Unfortunately Lanka is facing another ugly struggle. We have to continue
the democratic struggle. Fascistic forces will resort to thugery and
violence, and make the present government more unpopular by this type of
parliament take over. By such actions they hope to make parliamentary
democracy a mockery. Each one of these MPs who are hell bent on bringing
back Mahinda is one of those who got rich with Mahinda’s support. These
families enjoyed these perks on the back of the blood, sweat and tears
of workers and peasants. They are used to this plunder and they have
been doing this for years. Obviously they will defend it with everything
they have.
Those who have sold the very soul of mother Lanka, her rich resources
cheaply and made her the unique display in the Indian Ocean are traitors
and agents of global powers. Those pundits who support them are
deliberately concealing this conspiracy, by pointing their crooked
fingers towards the West. It is the people who voted for President
Sirisena that liberated us from the clutches of looting forces of the
global capitalism. We have to denounce all plundering forces eyeing our
beautiful island. The people of Lanka have always taken the proper
political decision if the Left intervenes at the correct time.
