BEHOLD St. GORDON, St.
FRANCES
Sri Lanka bashers Gordon Weiss and Frances Harrison
have both decided to go on a crusade by the end of which both of
them will be sainted, and fast-track canonized without the
assent of any sitting Conclave in the Vatican.
In these editorial spaces ink and newsprint would not have
been expended on St. Frances (aspirant) and St. Gordon
(aspirant), unless there wasn't a need to set the record
straight about the modus operandi of some folk who have made it
their vocation to attack this country (and her people by
extension ...), particularly at a time there is a UN session,
which has sent the Tamil Tiger lobby into apoplexy, working
overtime, and trying to enlist the devil himself in their work
...
Now, these two who are hoping for the said fast-track
canonization have both simultaneously gone on record, swearing
on their babies' bottoms as it were, that they are doing the
work they are doing - basically trotting out falsehoods and
trumped-up stories against the Sri Lankan forces and the people
- because they feel that they cannot do otherwise when other
children suffer, for instance, while theirs sleep soundly, the
way babies should.
Both these writers have wept bucketfuls of tears saying that
they have 'nothing in this', except the goodness of their
hearts, which impelled them to write the stories of suffering
Tamil civilians who met calamitous fates at the hands of Sri
Lankan troops.
Strange that this milk of human kindness was never quite in
evidence when these twosome were both here in Sri Lanka, and
Sinhalese children were laid low by their scores in Claymore
mine attacks set off by the Tamil Tigers, and kids as young as
four were disemboweled in with machetes and other sharp
instruments, in what were antiseptically called by this same
lot, the 'border villages.'
In other words, these people, unbeknownst to them, just
showed that they have comprehensively UN-PEOPLED the Sinhalese
people's offspring. Weiss's own kids sleeping in their cots
never reminded him of these unfortunate tykes, because -- well,
because, he has, along with his kindred such as Frances
Harrison, summarily un-peopled the majority of us Sri Lankans.
They just probably felt that the Sinhalese kids were no more
than street dogs, or vermin such as cockroaches or termites that
deserved to be wiped out, or - no wait, had to be wiped out?
This is where their dirge for the Tamil children and their
mothers, starts getting curiouser and curiouser. The Harrisons
and the Weiss's come out with their publications and then their
respective justifications for them, just about this time of the
year.
When they see their own kids in comfort and in clover, they
only think of Tamil kids that suffer calamitous fates, and then
of course, they take on some of the victim-hood themselves, by
stating that they have been vilified in websites as 'White
Tigers' and called other such ("boo-hoo-hoo") names.
If this editorial writer has to count the number of times he
has been called names and threatened blue-murder, more or less,
in assorted websites, he might have to write a book longer than
Harrison's to create a log for all of those insults.
But the Harrisons and the Weiss's think they are special.
These poor, poor saintly white people, carrying our burden, and
shedding their dainty pearly-precious tears for Sri Lanka's
Tamil dead. Oh, the exquisite pity of it, this kind folk who
could have whooped it up in clover, and existed on caviar and
brought on the bubbly each evening when Kilinochchi is as far
away from their minds as London is from Uranus?
Perhaps John Perkins the author of the book Confessions of an
Economic Hit-Man should be asked about how some people un-people
other people, in their spanking idealistic humanitarian
crusades.
Perkins details how the big powers and their various agencies
(unmentioned here) commissioned various freelancers in the
private sector to go forth and do the bidding of the Empire by
sabotaging the economies of other countries.
When there is, to put it gently, a recurring credibility
issue about people such as Frances Harrison and Weiss, and when
their own children remind them of victimized kids of one
ethnicity alone - the only question left is, who pays these
hit-men, and these hit-women, and how much? Not to mention the
fat publishers royalties? And, by the way, a big Thank You to
you, Mr. Perkins. |
