my twitter accounts

here are my twitter accounts
this is my personal twitter (http://twitter.com/sittingnut)



and this is this blog's twitter(http://twitter.com/llibertarian)

i use the first to tweet about stuff that interest me (all news, politics, books, sports, movies, music, etc. etc.), second is restricted to stuff that deals with this blog and sri lankan news & politics ( though i do sl news & politics on in the other one as well).

no. i don't indulge in indecent exposure on twitter as some ppl do, so if you want that kind of stuff follow indi.padashow and his suckerboys. they do that stuff on twitter too, same as in their blogs. even on twitter they live in their self absorbed narrow minded small cocooned world, all the time.

but if you want to follow me, follow.

i generally follow back ppl who are real and not spammers. i also follow ppl who i find interesting and/or informative even if they do not follow me back.

terrorists' "ceasefire" while holding sri lankans hostage, is no ceasefire but an act of aggression

as usual lefty liberal "useful idiots" in the international media, and racist politicians pandering to tamil diaspora groups led by ltte fronts in their constituencies, are buying the line thrown at them by tamil tiger terrorists uncritically.

anyone with modicum of common sense would have seen thorough the absurdity and obvious "spin"of this so called unilateral declaration of ceasefire by ltte terrorist pussies. how does holding innocent sri lankans by the thousands as human shields, not an act of aggression? but they bought it.

after buying the "fake ceasefire" of terrorists at face value, these editors and politicians want pressure to be applied to sri lanka government to reciprocate with a ceasefire of its own.

in reality, without spin, what they ask amount to sri lanka government giving breathing space to an armed criminal gang, called ltte, holding sri lankans as human shields, when they are on the verge military defeat. a criminal gang, we must never forget ( as these editors and politicians are all too ready to forget), with a well documented record of committing the most vicious atrocities imaginable.

they will never say or write such absurdities about americans or british but they as racists (even though they will deny being racist ) feel no hesitancy about writing that stuff about sri lankan government. did they urge a ceasefire with pirates holding hostage? or al queda or taliban? no and they were right then. pirates, terrorists, and armed criminals, should not be allowed to get their way anywhere in the world. these racist editors and politicians' double standards based solely on race is clear. they have done similar things in the past and will do so again in the future.

call them out. if you see such absurdities, whether it be in nearly bankrupt new york times, or in the british mag the economist, or any other place, call them out and say what you think of this kind of sloppy racist totally unprofessional so called journalism, and political pandering. never mind about getting censored, attacked, or ignored, when calling them out, bc the msg will get to them eventually even if they do not want to admit it. there may even be few decent ppl left in those places who still respect truth. anyway we should not and will not stand by while this kind of bullshit takes place.

government should move forward in its effort to defeat ltte's military capability and leadership (the most moral thing to do at this point) and should decide its military tactics based on their effectiveness against ltte and ability to minimize inevitable deaths among civilians held as human shields, but certainly not on what these racist editors and politicians say.

as for racist editors and politicians - drop your fake sheepskin sympathy and go back to your racist wolf holes and leave us free to create a sri lanka free of of ltte terrorist horrors.

updated table of western province provincial council election results

given the traffic i am getting for last post, i thought that i should update a table of results periodically during next few hours , so that visitors can have results at one glance instead of going through pages in election department website.
this table will be updated periodically.


however for more detailed( and sometimes more current ) view you have to go to election department website. you can visit particular result page by clicking result name.
note- when election department website is late with results i will post results from other sources. (these can be distinguished by result name not being hyper linked to ed website)
note 2- updating of totals and other derivative figures may delayed if the results come in a batch

special update -
preference votes
continuing my work here, i am posting elected candadates and their preference votes in a separate post today 04/27/2009

western province provincial council election results online

update 2

given the traffic i am getting for this page i thought that i should update a table of results periodically, so that visitors can have results at one glance instead of going through pages in election department website.
the table is posted in my next post and will be updated periodically.

update 3-
preference votes
continuing work from above, i am posting elected candadates and their preference votes in a separate post today 04/27/2009

--
since i get lot of visitors searching for election results every time an election is held in sri lanka (and sometimes even when the election is in a foreign country) due to my previous election posts, as usual i am giving the link where ppl can actually find election results for western province election results online .

ultimate source is department of elections. when results come they publish online and other media get their official results from there. most of the polling division results will be out before tomorrow morning. preference votes will be counted starting tomorrow

(btw other media has more or less given up publishing so called "unofficial results" these days. these usually were results gathered from counting centers just after they were communicated to election commissioner but before the commissioner has certified them; an advantage of few minutes.)

who will win ?
does anyone needs to ask? upfa with their current popularity will win.

better question is which candidates will get the preference votes to get elected. will corrupt political thugs like duminda silva, shiral lakthilaka (indi.padashow's squeeze these days, and like his previous ones mervyn silva, mangala samaraweera etc. anyone supported by indi is a peacenik thug) and others like them win?

duminda silva probably ( he actually got most votes last time when he was ranil's favorite, but probably will not be 1st this time, though one can never tell). shiral lakthilaka is more dicey; indi will no doubt be excitedly checking preference results tomorrow afternoon to see whether his ... man squeezed in from the bottom, of the list of elected.

in any case, both if elected, will live off taxpayers doing nothing (except for the kickbacks to their corrupt supporters).

෴

update
this election was almost completely peaceful. so much so that i forgot to comment on it above. quite a contrast to a decade or so ago when we almost always had a curfew imposed after the polling, usually lasting throughout next day.

sl's cocoon bloggers ban another blogger ... over women's underwear or something

that small part of sri lankan blogosphere where dead arguments and cliché are kept alive with lukewarm prose and mutual back massages, where slandering of sl military is ok while soiling of indi padashow's bottom due to well deserved kicks cause a great fluttering of wails and shrieks, where in short, everything smells of mothballs, has succeeded in getting yet another blogger banned from kottu.

cause of it seems to be some sort of silly (as usual) argument between the indi.padashow's suckerboys network and one nibras bawa about some women's clothing or something. it seems that (again as usual) whole thing, through clicking and rubbing of each other wrong and right way developed into a narcissistic web of petty blog posts.

untangling the now thoroughly stained and stinking cocoon silk, would be as difficult as making sense of jarndyce and jarndyce in bleak house. so do not even attempt it unless you want to get cocooned for life ( indeed, you have to use the internet's cocoons, the caches, to access some of the deleted posts).

(btw their self absorption is such that they consider their small corner of sl blogosphere, "the blogosphere" and refer to it and to themselves as such in all seriousness. eg this utterly petty squabble is referred to as "the blogosphere vs nibras bawa" or similar. could anything be more against the spirit of internet? also the drummerboy first these days among the puckered lips, was reportedly "leading the blogosphere" in this ... er fight. even megalomaniac terrorist big pussy must be impressed.)

anyway nibras bawa seems to have got the better of it due to his better sniffing ability, so the suckerboys went in a huff to their idol indi.padashow and puffed, and got nibras bawa banned from kottu .

indi is covering up the results of suckerboy stimulation using a fig leaf about kottu terms prohibiting revealing of blogger identities. (btw indi demands that nibras bawa limit himself to outing indi. lol. funny that. someone might take those words,literally, one of these days). you can also see some of the suckerboys bobbing their heads in gratitude underneath in the comment section of the fig leaf post. ( as for my comment see pps below).

anyway this fig leaf will be adequate, if consistently used.
but he forgets to mention that by the same count he should ban his primary blog, indi.ca (he is still in denial about his (part?) authorship of padashow.wordpress. so i am not referring to that here) which attacked me using my real name ( as i have said from the first i like to keep my name private but give it to anyone who asks on a reciprocal basis).

when will these ppl ( both indi and his suckerboys ) understand the meaning of word hypocrisy ? never perhaps.

they will continue to live in the self created cocoon where they are protected from reality, honesty and truth (all of which can be bitter sometimes). they find sniffing mothballs and fantasizing in cocoon silk less risky, i suppose.

meanwhile, all other readers of blogs, who prefer fresh fruit and red meat to dead moths, better start using feed readers ( google reader highly recommended ).

෴

ps
i do expect to be banned from kottu myself one of these days.
while only about 10-15% (on blog posting days, otherwise 1-2%) of my readers come from kottu, that is still too large given the absolute numbers involved. so put this blog's feed in your feed readers if you came here from kottu.

pps
btw i left the following comment (comment-233014) in indi's blog but as usual in recent months he has censored it (as of now) . he has a perfect right to do as owner of blog .

man, these cocooned bloggers of sl ( about 10% of sl blogospshere at most, though more in kottu since majority of sl bloggers are deliberately excluded from it ) are doing their best to keep alive a dead stale arguments that concerns nobody but each other .

everyone involved and their blogs now smell of dead mothballs.
ppl who are tired the this petty self absorption are invited to read a fresh blog with red meat (and delicious bitter sweet fruits) in it (like mine ) :-)
and to use a feed reader instead of kottu. ( google reader highly recommended )

anyway this new exclusion give rise to interesting questions
is indi going to throw this blog out of kottu?.after all he used my real name (which i like to keep private but give to anyone on a reciprocal basis) to attack me in this blog .
hypocrisy anyone?

i expect this comment will censored as all my recent comments ( afraid of the truth ? btw blog owner has a perfect right censor, but censorship it is ) . and may even result in my exclusion from kottu according to arbitrary terms of kottu . :-)

over 35k hostages of terrorist ltte escape + how to recognize pro terrorist propaganda in news about civilians and "safe zone"

post updated with video, see below.

it is clear from variety of sources that during past day 35000 or more civilians held as human shields by tamil tiger terrorist pussies in so called safe zone and elsewhere have escaped from them in spite of pussy attempts to deter them, (using shootings and suicide bombers, 3 such bombers have killed at least 17 innocents so far ) and natural obstacles like lagoon ( some ppl have waded through chest high in water). ppl have been escaping at the rate of about 500 on average daily, some days more, some days less, from january.

as i said before plight of tamil civilians have only reinforced the truth so obvious to everyone but the pro terrorist peaceniks; "ltte does not care for tamils and is only using them as human shields both literally and in propaganda. ...civilians will never be safe as long as they are under the ltte, ceasefire or no ceasefire, safe zone or no safe zone.anyone under ltte will be used either as a shield or a weapon."

i asked then whether peaceniks will acknowledge the truth now? and predicted that they will not, that they already know it and except for literal idiots among them, they are acting so by deliberate choice. as such they should suffer the same fate as nazi collaborators in europe bc the crimes are similar. (for specifics as to who i mean by peaceniks pl read the linked post or ps below )

during past few months these ngo peaceniks and their pro terrorist tamil diaspora backers have tried to influence foreign governments and un to force a ceasefire ( as if we did not have enough of murderous ceasefires ) on sri lankan government and let ltte mass murderers breathing space to crawl out of the hole. for this purpose they have used selective and biased reports about the so called safe zone, camps where escapees from terrorists temporarily settle, and demonstrations in foreign cities.

here are some points that distinguish ltte (and terrorist parroting peacenik ) propaganda about these things from factual reporting.

terrorist propaganda,

• ignore the fact that government set up the safe zone in the first place.
• are full of unsubstantiated reports that government is attacking civilians in safe zone.
• ignores the ltte military build up in the safe zone in spite of clear proofs ( including visual ).
• ignore the fact that governmet has been supplying food and medicines to safe zone ( and the fact that ltte commandeers most of these)
• ignore the fact that ltte has held not only innocent civilians and used them for its military purposes, but that it has held un and ngo workers for the same purposes as well.
• make unwarranted comparisons between nazi concentration camps and camps where civilians escapees are temporarily settled to which un, red cross and some other ngos have access.
• repeat the unsubstantiated 100,000 as the number of civilians trapped in ltte control. it was "100,000" in january it is "100,000" now, in spite of 500 average daily escapees who populate the camps mentioned above.
• imply that any military action to finish off ltte will be the death of the "100,000", in spite of the remarkable fact ( for which sri lankan military should receive more recognition) that civilian deaths in military actions from 2006 to now, has been minimal compared to other such wars .
• use demonstrations in foreign cities to push the racist agenda that ltte = tamils and the laughable claim that ltte is fighting for tamil rights, when vast majority of tamils in sri lanka and lot of tamils in diaspora do not support terrorist tigers, and ltte has been the number one cause of tamil suffering.
• ignore the fact that these foreign demonstrations are organized by terrorist fronts
• do not mention that in past month terrorist front groups in norway attacked the sri lanka embassy there, violating a law that even ancient barbarians respected and that pro ltte norwegian government has yet to arrest the perpetrators in spite of video evidence. it is not by coincidence that lot of pro terrorist ngos like center for policy alternatives (cpa) , free media movement(fmm) , inform , and other ngos have norway or groups in norway as principal donors.
• neglect to mention the fact that most of noise coming from foreign governments come from places (like india , britain, and norway ) where there is a tamil population (with attendant and intimidating pro terrorist criminal groups) and where elections are underway or soon expected. noise is mostly confined to parties or individuals politicians who will be affected by tamil voting. in other words these are despicable attempts at pandering to racism to score political points locally. thankfully most of the grown up responsible politicians in those countries ( perhaps well aware of their countries less than stellar historical record) are staying well away .

i can probably make some more points but will stop for now.

now if you see any "news" report that does any of the above please protest any way you can (write/email to editors and news organizations, comment on blogs, use social media like facebook and twitter etc) . feel free to use the points i make above .

every single contribution is important bc only relatively few sri lankans have the economic resources to engage in such protest against ltte propaganda through internet etc. it is also important bc most foreign news organizations do not have real news sources in sri lanka and rely on second hand sources that have been tainted by terrorists sympathizers like bbc sri lanka service or ngos like cpa ( which is still sometimes called "independent" in news items when it has repeatedly shown its pro terrorist bias, among other things when it publicly lobbied to stop the eu ban on ltte) .

do not be discouraged by attacks from pro terrorists or censorship. your point ( based on factual truth after all ) will get through eventually, if the news organization has any honest ppl. if news organization is corrupt and false to the core, it will fail or sink into obscurity in the long run.

here is a rupavahini video of civilians escaping from terrorists via youtube channel of lkwebnews. visit lkwebnews for more srilankan news videos .

ps
by peaceniks i mean people who think peace is worth any cost (even cost of human rights, justice, democracy, and freedom ). that is people like paikiasothy saravanamuttu, jehan perera, jayadeva uyangoda, sunila abeysekera, sunanda deshapriya, nimalka fernando, rohan edirisinha, jeevan thiagarajaha, and their ilk (and their underlings like sanjana hattotuwa). and their fellow travelers in the sl blogosphere like hypocrite indi.ca/padashow.wordpress (son and tool of a corrupt political appointee) and his cronies.

btw sanjana hattotuwa's groundviews blog is an excellent example for the sort of terrorist propaganda pointed out above, you will see that posts there adhere to all or some of distinguishing features of ltte propaganda pointed out above .

pps
some of the indi padashow's suckerboys ( led these days by a certain drummerboy, but others no doubt like to be first with puckered lips) object to my use of words like "pussy" (used by me exclusively for cowardly tiger terrorists, and has no reference to female vagina (really!) which suckerboys hate/envy), "corrupt political appointee" (fact. what else can you call corruption? it is corruption by indi.padashow's own standards, in fact with more evidence ), "peaceniks" ( what to call ppl who value peace above human rights, justice, democracy, and freedom as documented by their won actions and writings, esp with regard to sole representative status of ltte) , etc. btw "padashow" is the name of a blog indi and perhaps others, use to attack ppl while denying authorship.

bc facts and honesty wins out in this blog over cronyism, sorry, i cannot do without those words, boys. in fact i will write more about these suckerboy attacks on me with relevant links soon when i have the time.

meanwhile, i hear that indi padashow is campaigning for his latest squeeze shiral lakthilaka (indi's former idols include mervyn silva, mangala samaraweera etc. all his daddy's potential or former political benefactors),a peacenik underling, who wants to get elected to western provincial council and subsist on taxpayer money while doing nothing, now that ngo peacenik business is turning out to be a dead end.

i cannot confirm this, but indi reportedly tried to perform the same services for duminda silva, (ranil's favorite in last pc election but this time in upfa), before settling on lakthilaka; it seems duminda kicked him out saying he prefers teenage girls to nerdy men. lol. anyway problem with lakthilaka's campaign is that it is run from trinco hotels while electorate is in colombo.

ppps
talking about trinco hotels, isn't it ironic how peacniks and friends enjoy the fruits of military and political actions against terrorists (safe eastern province beaches ) while denouncing and misrepresenting them. more hypocrisy anyone?
