White Breed’ at Channel 4 and concocted videos…
By Prasad GunewardeneOnce again the ‘White Breed’ at Channel 4 who speaks and write English, a language falsely claimed as the ‘Queens Language’, though it has its original roots to a tribe in Germany centuries ago as evidence, are now preparing another concocted video on baseless and unfounded ‘war crimes’ in Sri Lanka, displaying the venomous pattern of the old imperial hegemony in insulting the people of Asia, as they’ve done to Africa and Latin America from time immemorial.
A few months ago, responding to a call by Sri Lanka’s Defence Secretary, Gotabhaya Rajapaksa, to take action against Channel 4 for airing an irresponsible video insulting the legitimate troops of Sri Lanka, the British government stated that Britain believed that ‘Free Media’ was a vital part of democracy, and it did not exercise control over media contents. The question that arose from the British statement was - Whether such a free media is allowed to tarnish the image of another democracy resorting unethical and undemocratic standards?
Stoop to low levelsChannel 4 had stooped to low levels in electronic journalism over a period of time attacking the island nation Sri Lanka while continuing to support a ruthless terrorist group like the LTTE.The callous attitude of the ‘White Breed’ at Channel 4 engaged in launching venomous attacks on a democracy like Sri Lanka that had crushed terrorism, should be condemned by all democratic minded citizens at global level. It’s no surprise that the ‘White Breed’ has had the habit of occupying the vanguard to throw slings and arrows at smaller nations like Sri Lanka from time immemorial.Those ‘journalists’ at Channel 4, act with deep seated feelings and animosity against the re-established freedom of Sri Lanka and her citizens who have now begun to reap benefits after crushing a ruthless terrorist outfit in 2009, having shed blood for three decades.
Crush terrorismSri Lanka is not surprised that the ‘White Breed’ at Channel 4, cannot bear the civilised patience and the braveness of this small island nation and her people who have a proud civilised history that spans over 2,500 years. According to the British statement issued following the unethical documentary on Channel 4 a few months back, the British laws looks ignorant or inadequate to control or rehabilitate its own ‘White Breed’ sitting in the offices at Channel 4. Whenever, a coloured nation outdid the ‘White’, the ‘Whites’ resorted to undemocratic and illiberal actions to throw bells, telephones, books, candles or any other implement at their command to cause injury to the innocent ‘shining’ skins.The island nation Sri Lanka, shook the ‘White Breed’, took the entire world by surprise to become the first nation in this world not only to crush, but also to uproot and eliminate terrorism, unlike the ‘White Breed’ which enjoyed nuclear power and yet struggle in that direction. Sri Lanka and her people, victorious after ending terrorism in 2009, do not believe that such laurels and plaudits are meant to be worn on the forehead, a scenario rampantly seen among the ‘White Breed ‘which has inherited a tendency to ‘jump to joy’, even when a white batsman hits a boundary in a ‘gentleman’s’ game.
True patriotismSri Lankans are a multi-ethnic people who have inherited true and authentic patriotism. Those vibrant virtues quite humbly displayed to the world have once again brought Sri Lanka under pressure from the ‘White Merchants’ of the ‘White Breed’ at Channel 4, and those in the world’s political black market, who at times backed terrorism against democratically elected legitimate governments.Channel 4, no doubt, act in a vicious manner with anger, animosity and vengeance against Sri Lanka at regular intervals, because the ‘Coloured Skin’ of this Asian island nation had stormed the citadels and bastions of the established ‘White Order’ yet struggling in fear before International Terrorist Organisations like the Al Qaeda and many others.
