Sandun,

This is the end of the END.

Thanks Mahen for the update,

I hope this time you are correct.

Mahen said...

Nisal,
We been on the other side of the bridge for few weeks, for security reasons official sites only reveal those when time is right.

Our old news become, new one in Gov sites now :)

Mahen said...

We are in Vellamullivaikkal now, 58th has joined the party. Remember you heard it here first folks.

LTTE couldn't get into the UN Security Council Agenda this time either.

Thanks Mahen,

I guess these are pretty exciting times.

We are about to liberate the total country from imperialist forces after 1505 (Portuguese invasion).

We are witnessing the making of history here!

Puran Appu said...

Well Mahen,

Celebrations are already on??

Mahen said...

Puken Appu,

Please go watch TV and read a news paper.

Mahen said...

Puan,

Tell us why any Sri Lankan should not start the celebration!!

Nisal said...

[[58th has joined the party]]

What does it mean?
58 is always in the front, isn't it?

Mahen said...

Yes, but they are boxing in the remnants with the other divisions, playing back PTK east.

SBS and RABS boys will also join the party, along with Mi-24 fly boys.

Guys,

Our source in the frontline reveals that LTTE is using white phosphorous weapons againts our soldiers and civilians. There might be heavy civilian casualties due to it, and we are sacrificing a lot to rescue them. Do not forget our sacrifices.

The LTTE is killing their own people, we are trying to stop that.

Sam Perera said...

Mahen,

LTTE will use anything they have, since they have nothing else to do. I hope that our soldiers are prepared for this.

LRRU said...

Mahen;

That's why I told LTTE must be also having a back up last minute plan......

I don't think 30 year effort would be given up easily as we think????

Hope everything comes Good for us within few hrs.....

My cousine in Katunayake told me that they heard few Jets taking off in the morning.....we don't know its for testing or firing....

Buddhika De Silva said...

Hi! Guys...
Great work...
Keep it up....... HORA CHANDA THOGA PITIN......

පංකාදු ලංකා said...

I think it is time for all Sri Lankans to stop calling IDPs and other Tamil people of Sri Lanka “their own people” in relation to the LTTE. By describing the Tamil people as “LTTE’s own people” we reinforce the myth that the LTTE are representing the Tamil people.

For example, when the LTTE are firing at escaping people we must NOT say “the LTTE are shooting their own people” because LTTE do not own or represent any people of Sri Lanka. It is just a terrorist group.

We must say it as it is – “the LTTE are shooting escaping civilians”. This is quite sufficient to accurately describe what is happening.

Any comments?

Mahen,

Sorry if you felt that I am spreading racism here. I did not mean that.

All I did was putting Nanda Malini's song here.

I did not know it was a racist song until now.

Now I know.

Thank you.

Maskman said...

Jangi Mahen,

Good reply to Charan.
Charan, that song, may be good, but racist and offends many people. Has no place in Sri Lanka now.

Maskman said...

Jangi Mahen,

Machan do you like "bilin achcharu"? If Samanthi can pick few bilin I can make some achcharu. I never made it, but seen my mum making it many times, so shouldn't be hard.
I'll send a parcel if you prefer for the BBQ. Tastes great with roasted pork.

Sujeewa Kokawala said...

Mahen;

Do you have any touch with down south, notably Ambalangoda. Your billing requests tally a bit with the region.

BTW I have a small question to Mahen. Have we fully captured the shore of Nanthi Kadal now? If so, why do we keep the other shore till last moment. I believe that we should be capturing the open sea side, not the lagoon side. Especially when we can provide a land route for injured/sick ppl thru the Wattuwan.

Most chance Fatpig has is to take sea route and overwhelm the layers of naval blockade with endless suicide boats. That is not easy, but every other option is harder. This is why I think that we should have taken the open sea shoreline first.

Sam Perera said...

Mahen and Charan,

I don't think that Charan meant this song to be a racist song. The words in the songs has no racism involved. However, the feeling the minorities get from the song says otherwise. What really matters is not a a song but how we share this country with little or no indeference. This is a national question we need to begin finding answers immediately. On the side, we can play a role in consensus building by talking about great sacrifices of minority military members in our war against terrorists.

Sam Perera said...

"53 and 58 expected to merge in the western side of the strip soon."

Ragu,

Yes, I have seen the movie Sarawita a long time ago and the movie itself had nothing about racism. If anything it is about patriotism. Nevertheless, we should not get hung up on songs but try to see the elements that stand on our way to make this a country for all Sri Lankans.

)┐ said...

Mahen,

What's wrong with saying that this our country? When the Sinhalese say it they say "mae sinhala apage ratai", when the Tamils say it they say "this is the tamil people's land". I see nothing wrong when people consider this whole country as their motherland. As in the ancient days let this country once again be known as "Sinhalae" in Sinhala, "Eelaam" in Tamil and "Ceylon" in English. The meaning is the same which ever language. Let there be a radical change in our thinking as ourselves as one nation. Let us learn each others' language so that there won't be any mistrust. Let the Sinhalese and the Muslims show their love to their Tamil brethren in their time of great distress. Let us treat all the people in the North as our own relatives. This is a great opportunity to change ourselves for the better. "Unite and florish or divide and perish" - "Ekwa raekemu nathinam wenwa miyemu"

)┐ said...

Mahen, in Derana channel news at 8pm today, the merchant ship "Farah" was shown (a quite large image) as seen from nearby from the direction of 59th division. They said it was in LTTE hands and shots were seen going off from the ship. Does that mean that our forces have almost completely rounded up the LTTE?

Mahen said...

Charan bro,

Apologies accepted with thanks.

There is a lot of "nationalistic cow-dung" being sung and and appreciated in Sri Lanka without thinking about them.

We must all unlearn these "yal penapu" type of patriotism and develop an all embracing type of patriotism which is more suitable for the global village we are becoming part of.

Let's sing "Oye ojayey, oye ojaye..."

Mahen said...

Ravana,

See my reply to Charana above.

Sing "Mey mei gaha yata davasakdaaaaa...vessata api themunaaa...."

SL LION said...

now you all see,that Mahen is a big liar and lankan national traitor. Today the 59th crossed the Vadduvakal-bridge,not two weeks ago as claimed by Mahen.

http://www.itn.lk/news_02_20090512.html

The end game has begun,three hours ago our troops have entered the villages of Karayamullivaikal and Vellamullivaikal. This was told to me by my friend in Mannar-army base via handy.End of the coventional war expected in the next 72 hours

SL LION said...

by the way,so far the 59th has not linked up with the 58th and 53th. This is one more "sensation-nonsense" by Mahen. The soldiers have no flying-wings to link up so soon. Expect it in the next three days,their link-up will symbolize the end of the war.

By the time 58th, 53rd and 59th ilink up, your fantazy boyz and girls gotta be attained Eelam. They're boxed in. There is no need for the pubcized link up which you await.

So await few days, just like we do.

Mahen said...

Apologies for the earlier typo.
Below should be the correct details.

53 and 59 expected to merge in the western side of the strip soon.

Sam Perera said...

Mahen,

Are we going for lots of night time ops these days?

Sam Perera said...

Mahen,

"53 and 59 expected to merge in the western side of the strip soon."

Did you mean to say the eastern side of the strip? According to Army map or MOD ORBAT map, 58 and 53 need to flip sides for 58 to meet 59?

Mahen said...

Most of our sucess came during the night.
Sun will rise soon without terror, for mother Lanka.

Sam Perera said...

Mahen,

You didn't tell me if Thirunawakarsu is working there these days.

abc is a liar. do not call that number. This is another LTTE supporting tamil diaspora's work in Canada.

Googled it and found this.

"416-870-2242 CALL STOP TAMIL GENECIDE IN SRI LANKA"

"come and support us today! 416 870 2242 call to find out more! i care! do u care? if you do plz call now.

Charan,
"Mahen,

All I did was putting Nanda Malini's song here.

I did not know it was a racist song until now.

Now I know.

Thank you."

Unbelievable that you gave up so easily. Nothing wrong with you being proud of your ethnicity. That is a part of the nature of the human beings. It does not stop there. You are proud of your country, your school, your county, your family ect. Mahen seems hoping for a "Borg" type society which would be so boring only Mahens would be able to live there. It is irrespective whether you are a Tamil or a Sinhalese. You can be proud of your ethnicity. That song you mentioned is a beautiful one which was written by Chandraratana Manavasinghe and sung by Nanda Malini (Music Amaradewa), both never have been blamed as racists. Actually the opposite can be said about them. During the same era Nanda sang this, "sihala, demala muslim kalyana mithuranie" and in eighties PLOTE used it as the theme song of it's Sinhala radio channel.

Don't give up so easily man. "Borgs" can't concentrate beyond the first line of a song. You can be proud of everything good about you. If ethnicity is one of them, no problem as far as you don't discriminate other ethnicities.

Where is racism in that song? (Its true that Nanda Malini doesn't sing it any more.)

If this is not sinhala our country what country is ours?

Its not our fault that if others (Sri Lankan tamils, muslims, burgers, vaddas etc) don't consider Sri Lanka as their country.

Anonymous said...

Some suddas still think this is still their colony. And some of our (~30% of population's) leaders also think this is still suddas country. You better play that song every hour so that remaining UNPers also realize this is our country. (Then they will vote for our leaders.)

Looks like Mahen is still fast asleep.

59 Landed from the East to the Narrow strip of land and then moved North along the coast and West towards the Nanthikandal Lagoon (and took control of the Southern tip).

This is how the Wadduvakal causeway/ Bridge came under the control of 59. We didn't move along the Wadduvakal causeway.

About demonstrations around the world by diaspora. The obvious reason is their determination to live where they are. However all these countries will deport these buggers. They are milking the economy in illegal ways.
Wondered why they were openly carrying LTTE flags which doesn't put any weight to the supposed cause which is purported be for innocent civilians. I think they will be able to appeal to the governments around the world admitting that they are actually LTTErs and that all LTTE members have been annihilated in SL and same fate will befall on them. All these years they said to the authorities they are refugees who have fled the fighting. Now it might be beneficial to admit they are tigers. They are in the process on building up evidence they are actually LTTErs.
Anyway we don't want the bastards and bitches back here. Those countries will pay with interest for the leniency they have showed. Thank god we will soon be out of it. We would be laughing when they start terrorising their citizens. They will have no shortage of terrorism. Lets wait and see.
If the diaspora is really concerned about the civilians they would offer whatever they can to the rescued ones. Nothing is forthcoming which shows who they are batting for.
