An
Italy-Sri Lanka Anti-Terrorist Organisation was established
in Rome under the guidance of Sri Lanka's Ambassador to
Rome Hemantha Warnakulasuriya P.C.
The
first project of this association is a website, in Italian,
which will be devoted to the brutal atrocities committed
by the LTTE. It will have videos of the attempted killing
of Minister Douglas Devananda by a suicide bomber and
the killing of Minister Jeyaraj Fernandopulle.
The
President of Italian-Sri Lanka Anti Terrorist Organisation
(ISATO) told the Asian Tribune that until he met some
Sri Lankans, he did not know the intensity of the terrorist
problem that Sri Lanka was facing.
"I
did not know that famed investigation institutions such
as the FBI had described the LTTE as the most ruthless
terrorist organisation in the world, even ahead of the
dreaded al-Qaeda. That it has direct links with avowed
terrorist organisation in the world like Al Qaeda is not
known to most of us.
Italians
knows nothing about the LTTE, other than that it is a
liberation movement claiming to liberate the Tamils from
oppressive Sinhalese governments.
We
sympathized with them not knowing the true facts. When
I studied this organization and its capability, I found
that it is a threat to all civilized people in the world.
It will kill you or drug and brainwash you to turn you
into a suicide bomber," he said.
"The
Western governments have for a long time paid lip service
to these ruthless terrorists. When the Sri Lankan government
is fighting the terrorists, with the limited resources
at its disposal, for the betterment of every civilized
human being, we sometimes, by our actions support the
most ruthless terrorist organization in the world.
The
time has come to educate every single Italian and then
we will, in the near future, strive to educate the French
and the Germans.
We
will have the web pages in Italian, French and German
so that most Europeans will know the truth about these
ruthless terrorists. We hoped to launch the website on
the day when Sinhalese and Tamils celebrate the New Year
with a sense of brotherhood," he said.
