Letter to Jimmy Carter by an ordinary Sri Lanken Citizen

25.58.2008

To : Mr.Jimmy Carter (Jimmy Carter Center)

Dear Sir,

I am 30 years old Sri Lankan civilian and have to say the followings with a sad mind as some international community doing unreasonable things to Sri Lanka without real knowledge about our country. Sri Lanka has faced most dangerous terrorism in the world for more than 20 years. LTTE has become the most dangerous terrorist group of the world than Al Qaeda. LTTE has given lots of terrible terrorist lessons to other terrorist groups in the world.

LTTE is the terrorist group which introduced suicide human bombs to the world. Then other terrorist groups also follow this almost all the world. You had urged other countries not to vote for Sri Lanka at UN Human Rights committee member's election. Sri Lanka lost its membership of Human rights committee at the poll. But 101 countries voted for Sri Lanka. Perhaps your request helped to show a bad picture about Sri Lanka for other counties. I believe you have been misled by some LTTE factions, NGOs and other groups.

If you have already visited Sri Lanka you may have knowledge of its good & innocent people. Sri Lankan government tries to control this brutal terrorism with the great difficulties and give a real peace for the all community in Sri Lanka.

LTTE is doing child soldier recruitments and suicide bomb attacks not only in Sri Lanka even in other countries-(assassination of Indian Prime Minister Rajeev Gandhi by a suicide attack). LTTE has brutally killed thousands of innocent civilians even infants. Even now LTTE doing bomb attacks mainly targeting innocent people and tries to raise the racialism by such attacks and tries to get the profit from that. But, Sri Lankan government and its people has been (all community) tolerantly (patient) face this situation.

I can say no such Human rights violations in Sri Lanka. LTTE faction's some groups give wrong picture to other counties not to give any help to Sri Lanka. You may come and visit Sri Lanka and understand what the truth is.

Mr. Jimmy carter & Father Desmond Tutu perhaps didn't know the real situation. I don't know why former president Jimmy carter has forgotten 2001 September world Trade Centre attack. Those days I saw some news; there may be some LTTE help behind this attack.

Sri Lankan government has taken some steps, but have to blame as government has not taken sufficient steps to let know other countries and international community about current situation in Sri Lanka and LTTE brutality. Therefore LTTE has taken a great opportunity to mislead (cheat) other counties and international community by using their helping groups (which depend on LTTE's money)

Few LTTE activities in the world:

* Drug deals, smuggling, Credit card frauds, illegal fund raising for terrorism, giving the trainings to other terrorist groups,

* Helping illegal people migrations and get money from them, illegal satellite communications(phone, TV, Radio) for terrorism and many more.

As an innocent Sri Lankan civilian, I urge you, other counties, NGO's, International community "Please help Sri Lankan Government to eliminate this brutal LTTE terrorism from Sri Lanka & the world. Also, please don't allow anyone to mislead you"

Thanks.
