All the talk about culture and civilization is utter nonsense. The culture of secrecy and violence, the hallmark of a repressive state, is conspicuous and unmistakable.

“The group members who arrived in a white van without number plates were heavily armed with T-56 assault rifles, pistols, iron bars and hand grenades.” ——- Yet the place was destroyed by “Explosives” and “Claymore bombs”.

“Two shot guns of MTV gurds”——Yet no rounds of counter fire at the attackers by the “Guards” (Who found bravery later when they ran inside to save their colleages traped in the fire).

“The place was destroyed with explosives and claymore mines” —–Yet “we ran inside to save our staff (Miracle ! MTV staff inside can servive “Claymore” attacks).

“Everything was over in 20 minutes” —–The “attackers” over powered the guards,Took the crew hostage,knew nothing of the location and found the target by forcing staff,set up explosives and claymore mines,egnited them,destroyed “even” doors and windows” with grenades while “staff was inside”,released the hostages,made the getaway…all in 20 minutes ! (Mission Imposible 4 ??).

“After the armed gang left we were shocked to see the building ablaze and realising that some of our colleagues were trapped inside we quickly went to rescue them before the said bombs exploded,” —-Journalists/Guards or Trained rescue specialists? (Normaly people in SL run away in these circumpstanses,as we have seen in most attacks in colombo by LTTE.Specialy after “were informed of booby traps”.)

“People came in white vans—-The Classic.The military Intelligence is not so Intelligent at all!.All bad things are done in white vans.Whats with these guys and white vans??.Vehicle lovers in love with a special brand/model/colour??.

Of course Mr Ranil’s Comments –Only few bad apples in the Army—–Mr Ranil, Are they the onces who servived your millenium city betrayal?.

Two “attacks” and two hefty insurance payouts.

mmmm something is fishy here…..

I am not saying Maharajas deliberately did the attack with the SOLE INTENTION of getting a huge insurance payout
——————————————————————————–
I suppose 2 days later when Lasantha was killed, that was because his wife was trying to collect the life insurance payout.

One good thing about you is the viewers have to only believe in the opposite of what you believe in, so in a way you are doing an invaluable service.

If you support anybody, i think they will fall at your feet and beg you to stop supporting them.

Who would benefit by casting a shadow over the success that our soldiers have achieved in the Wanni? Needless to say, the only ones who stand to gain are not only the LTTE, sections of the UNP and the NGO ‘peaceniks’ but also the so-called international community which has been conspiring to impose its own ‘political solutions’ on this country.

You said MTV spoils OUR culture. I am yet to see an attack on the Kudu Mudalalis houses, night clubs and bars. Pl. go to these places and see what OUR young people do there. We before Rupavahini came on line, you must have visited the Colombo beaches – particularly the Wellwatte and Dehiwela areas. Behind the mangroves OUR young people were busy figuring out the wonders of the nature, which OUR parents had to wait until they got married.

You are telling the world that Maharaja Organisation bribed some of our Top Buddhist monks especially like Ven Banagala Upatissa of the Mahabodhi Society. What BUDDHIST CULTURE are we talking about here?

You seem to revere Mervin Silva and his bravery. Have you had a look at Mervin’s sons? You are preaching CULTURE here, Uncle??
