No one can forget the massive devastation unleashed by the blood thirsty terrorists in the country.
The terrorists blatantly violated human rights throughout 30 years. This episode gives a clear description of the destruction inflicted by the terrorists within the country on 31st March throughout the fear psychosis period.
The innocent villagers of the Wevelketiya village in Medawachchiya commenced their day to day activities on 31st March 1988 with the intention of earning an income. But as a result of a massive attack unleashed by the blood thirsty tiger terrorists barging into the village killed seven innocent Tamil civilians and seven Muslim civilians.
These ruthless tiger terrorists thus embarked on their killing spree on 31st March throughout the dark era. Seven innocent Tamil civilians were killed in a bomb attack unleashed by the tiger terrorists on 31st March 1991 in the Irudayapuram area. Again on 31st March in the year 1998, two war heroes lost their lives following a terrorist attack launched in the Amman Kovil area. On the same day, the terrorists lurking in the Valalchchenai area unleashed a powerful attack targeting the war heroes. Two brave soldiers died in this attack.
In the year 2008 also on a day like today the tiger terrorists exploded a bomb in the Panikkara Puliyamkulam area, taking two valuable lives of valiant soldiers. Demented by the continuous defeats suffered, the blood thirsty terrorists unleashed a powerful attack in the Puthukudiyiruppu area on 31st March 2009. Three war heroes sacrificed their lives on behalf of the motherland in this assault. Iranamadu was the next target of the blood thirsty terrorists on the same day. They killed three gallant soldiers.
The number of lives taken away by the terrorists in the face of their thirst for blood, on 31st March within the fear psychosis period was 49. This included 24 innocent unarmed civilians. The other 25 were courageous soldiers. If not for the pulverization of tiger terrorism which was a scourge for the country on 18th May 2009 from the Nanthikadal Lagoon at Wellamulliwaikkal, the country would have transformed into a land of the dead. The members of the Security Forces who advanced in the humanitarian operations under the prudent leadership of President Rajapaksa, the Commander in Chief and the appropriate guidance of Defence Secretary Gotabhaya Rajapaksa succeeded in enthroning genuine peace in the country.
Aren’t they the real war heroes? What they did was to protect the nation and the motherland through supreme sacrifices. What is the moral right Britain and the United States which are flagrantly violating human rights to make allegations that such gallant soldiers had flouted fundamental rights? These courageous soldiers did not transgress human rights, but provided a fitting lesson to the world of safeguarding human rights. The heroism of the members of the Security Forces are recounted in this feature daily as they are eternal heroes.
