Traitors All (a poem)





by KMR Devpriya Abhayasinh

[December 13, Colombo, Sri Lanka Guardian]

1. Ra-nil, MM, JJ, and a host of gormless ones
Traitors all unabashed for more than once
Thirty pieces of silver was all that Judas got
Corrupted to the core Lanka's leaders what's their lot?

2. Norway, UK, Japan led by Yankee USA
Gang of the West doth corrupt to find a way
New imperialism, new colonialism, we cry has reared its ugly head
Once more alas to rape mother Lanka with traitors' aid.

3. History repeats yet again conquistadors of the West
No longer fighting each other to exploit the rest
Ganged-up to seize and share wealth untold
Weak nations lay hapless unable to hold.

4. Tigers few were unleashed to maraud a peaceful race
Who filled their war chest and made a case?
One third of the land and two thirds of the coastal belt
Carved up by the West to pillage as the tigers felt.

5. A fascist hold doth the tigers have on a hapless race
Spurred-on by the Gang of the West in relentless pace.
Do they care, a tear shed, on the evil they unleash?
Greed doth make devils of conquistadors as they relish.

6. Diego de Garcia, an islet, in India's sweltering ocean
Yankee pigs did wrest control, a base was the notion.
"Swept and cleansed" we want that islet so Britain was told
"Gas the dogs and ship the natives", a move so bold
To Seychelles and Mauritius with no wealth to hold.

7. Who cried for them was it the Union of Nations?
A toothless body with no power worth a mention.
No one bold to raise the issue save Charles Wheeler
For 2000 natives no justice, Oh! so bitter.

8. Lanka's fate before the relentless Gang of the West
Lay sealed like Garcia's as they plot to wrest,
Black gold they found manifold deep in Lanka's coastal belt
Phosphate stocks yet untapped so vast they felt.
A strategic base so ideal aspires the Yankee beast
Hidden agenda yet to unfold to control Asia's East.

9. Does the West fear the rise of Bharath to super power?
The demise of Yankees as of Britain and France with its Eiffel Tower?
Would the Yankees be skittled-out by China a hyper power?
A way must be found to destroy these two by sheer will power,
Yankees do plot fearful of a new world order.

10. "Divide and Rule" a proven way by Britain of yore
Vast empires they held and riches manifold did pour
Surely what worked then should work even now!
A system tried and tested to fail they cannot see how.

11. Militant activists, separatists, let's breed them all
Labelled "Rebels with a Cause" we support, they cannot fall.
The name of the game 'tis political subversion
India and China embroiled in chaos and confusion
Fighting terrorists at home, "Freedom Fighters" to the West,
Destabilised like Russia today, this is no jest.

12. NORAD, INGOS, peaceniks from the West are effective tools
Seemingly to give aid but rather to make fools,
IMF, World Bank, usurers with a string
Hold Mother Lanka by the throat, what a rotten thing!
Corrupted leaders blinded by power and greed
Compete as Yankee puppets and pay no heed.

13. Wijetunga, a President. true patriot he was though UNP,
"Racial discrimination? Never. Only terrorist problem" says he.
"Resign" said Madam, PM she was,
"I want your job, it's time you quit wars".

14. President-elect, Dissanayake, a patriot though UNP
Trailed well behind by Madam, "I despair " said she.
Singapore went she with Maharajah's wife in tow,
What conspiracy hatched we do not know.
But alas next day tiger bomb did blow
Poor Gamini, nation's champ he was no more.

15. Ra-nil and Satellite, peas in the same pod
Crazed by such power do they fear no God?
A web of deceit they fling o'er friend and foe alike
Spun for them by West's Gang to the nation's dislike.
Dollars jingle in their pockets to betray
Mother Lanka, "Have they no shame" we say.

16. Rich and powerful he was, Madam to corrupt he tried,
Fifty million dollars, so tempting but "No" she cried.
As time went by, innocence lost, power crazed Madam became
Fattened Swiss account? Corrupted by West, learnt to play the game.









17. Vasantha Raja, a cross-bred tiger, from UK she met
To make National TV's head o'er others she let.
"Has she gone bonkers and lost her marbles?" folks did fret.
Ere long tiger moles, one by one did infiltrate,
Vasantha Raja did this ensure at any rate.
National TV now to become 'Voice of Tiger' to howl,
Back in her senses she kicked him out to bare his teeth and growl.

18 As DPUs hit the tiger leaders, to snuff them out one by one,
They cowered and shivered in their bunkers, life could not have been much fun.
Tiger Cash by the millions flowed, to boost Ra-nil chances
PM soon to become at the next General Elections.

19. Favours returned by the Millennium City betrayal,
DPU's Cover blown-off by coppers bent so disloyal.
Madam, though C-I-C, lifted not a finger,
To release DPUs and lock-up the copper.
Alas! Tigers took revenge sweet as they did ensure,
DPU squad wiped out whole as tiger gangs roamed secure.

20. "Memorandum of Understanding", a so-called cease fire treaty,
Gave sole advantage to the tigers written with no sincerity.
Drafted in Oslo with tiger's much input
Rushed through by Ra-nil a traitor to boot.
Shown not to the President, CFA has no validity
Scant regard to our Constitution, What stark stupidity!

21. "A-9 is ours" said tigers who taxed the traffic that rolled by,
Millions they earned no doubt, for bombs and arms piled high.
Suicide bombers they sent and pistol gangs on fast bikes
Shoot and waste intelligence units and Tamils they dislike.

22. Where's our security? Confined to barracks?
No Check-point-Charlies to stop these wanton attacks?
Nation's safety corrupt leaders do abandon
In bomb-proof cars they are safe, so off to London.
How much dollars are they paid to turn a blind eye?

23: Transmitter large and powerful used solely by the army,
Duty free got through by Norway, sent to tigers how barmy!
Ra-nil such a traitor, Lanka's PM he was,
Used the army to carry free to Vanni across.
How demeaning! Lankan army's morale so undermined,
Public enemy No: 1, Ra-nil be determined.

24. Obtained by Norway for peaceful purpose no way,
Transmitter for use to eavesdrop on army say,
In times of war to jam military communication,


Such treachery unpunished, no way, our determination.
The fate that await traitors, ere long people will have their say.

25. Bunkers they built on State lands contra CFA,
"Who cares" they say, "It's our Eelam State today".
TNA the tigers formed, timed for General Elections that day,
Gained seats in Parliament by fraud scathing EU Report did say.

26. "Mad dog an English woman" off she dashed to the Vanni,
To patch up things so bad when Karuna split with VP.
Such concern from HC though tigers proscribed in UK,
Tigers divided will they fall? West's plan in disarray.

27. Twenty ship loads of arms did tigers bring ashore and rest,
When Ra-nil, PM, turned blind eye at Norway's behest.
Navy's Captain duty conscious sank one ship,
Ra-nil livid blew his top at a patriot let rip,
Dollars more to Swiss account as Lanka insecure, aiyo!

28. Tigers elect themselves as sole voice of the Tamil people,
What arrogance to do so, democratic rights to stifle!
Anandasangaree, what a great hero you are!
You defied the tigers to trod freedom's path so far,
The Nation salute you Sir for your bravery unsurpassed.
We greet you, "Vanakkam" treacherous leaders by-passed.

29. The Yankees gift us a warship a de-commissioned one,
Rust bucket for target practice when it can no longer run,
Million dollars by two they charged us to 'refit' this 'gift',
Just a lick of paint, but no fitted guns, that would cause a rift.
Corrupt Madam gave in, "Let us not hurt US feelings".
What fun tigers will have this rust bucket for targeting!
Lord save the navvies who sail this ship!
For sink it will as tigers let rip.

30. Madam, off she went to UN to mouth parrot-wise
Speech by Solheim perhaps, to laud Norway sky high.
Two faced Norway taking sides with tigers, so obvious,
She scant deplored before the world body, so insidious!

31. 'Joint Mechanism' she called it, to split the Tsunami aid,
Drafted by Norway, to tigers a billion must be paid.
Does she not know how a billion will be spent?
On arms galore to wage war by tigers hell-bent.
P-TOMS a back door to tiger independent.

32. Who needs a Parliament to debate this issue
Decreed already by the West only to be pushed through.
Ministers, MPs, and the Nation left equally in the dark,
Corrupt leaders and the tigers privy to this treacherous lark.
How dare she ride our Lankan people rough-shod!
"Who cares" she thinks I have my kids and life abroad.

33. What stark betrayal! Shame on you Lanka's President!
To terrorist yoke you sell-out our Lanka independent.
"Joint Mechanism" is surely back door to a separate state,
What follows next is eelam, I do predict, whole nation's fate.
Surely, no soothsayer you need to foretell what's crystal clear!

34. 'Final Solution' is on its way the tigers boast,
To kill the Sinhalese in a Nazi holocaust?
'Tis more insidious, to seize whole of dear Mother Lanka,
From South India to secede, New Tamil Nadu to form, amma,
Maha Dravida Nadu, empire large for 'Tamil Nation', ama?

35. Whilst Buddhist monks fast unto death in peaceful protest
She sweeps through them head held high in arrogant detest.
Police are let loose to disperse the monks by baton charge,
"Has she no shame to show no respect to patriots, Sarge?"
Quoth a brave young monk bloodied but undaunted.

36. Country wide she went laying into the JVPs
Her mouth no better than Mariakade's Rani's.
Clinging to power now that her term is ending,
Party Leader to become she is now a-craving.

37. The people starve, suffer, stay ever so poor,
Does the West care? Not on your nelly, I am sure.
Both in government and in opposition leaders play but one tune,
Traitors dance to Yankee rhythm, without a care, you corrupted goons.

38. Safety of the Nation totally abandoned
Tigers to roam and kill unhindered and maddened.
Even when caught to be released by peace agreement,
Who to blame if not ex-PM and ex-President?
Impeached for High Treason and brought to Court to chastise,
In other lands in East and West peoples did arise
To topple such traitors, kill the foe, to live in peace and prosper.

39. Buffoons in political arena people do realise
Hapless they await a fate they cannot neutralise.
Where is our true leader with some bravado?
A Mahathir Mohammed to stop the rot, Hey Presto!
Prince Diyasena Astrologers predict will make our day,
Is it MR and his brothers twain true patriots in full sway?

40. Stand up to the Gang of the West, make bold to lay to rest,
Their subversion and de-stabilisation we do manifest.
Do we let them rip our Motherland apart with strife?
Tiger terrorists spurred on by the West to sap our life.

41. Mahinda, our President, Prince Diyasena, no doubt,
Lord Buddha has sent to save Mother Lanka with one clout.
Hail Mahinda! Hail Gotabhaya!
With the Lord's blessings may you victorious reign!
Hail Service Chiefs! Hail our brave Lads!
For sacrifices you make to free Mother Lanka from fascist rule,
Lanka re-built to prosper in peace a happy nation, no West's fool.

42. O India! O China! I pray you to get together,
To fight West's new imperialism whatever the weather.
As allies you stand no less a chance to face this Gang of West,
To protect your peoples, your culture, your wealth at its best.

43. Billions from the West pour into the coffers of the tiger,
Puffed up, propped up, they kill and maul with such vigour.
Tiger aspirations their spurious claims the West do espouse,
Tiger rule, a fascist reign, o'er Lanka they do arouse.

44. Tigers to roam a territory vast to Tamil Nadu will extend
The Gang of the West will this ensure though do pretend
"No threat to Bharath's sovereignty or territorial integrity"
I pray, be not naive to believe this lullaby with such sincerity.

45. For Bharath in tatters will pose no threat,
To Yankee supremacy from East to West.
China too will follow suit with political unrest,
Unite I call to defeat Yankee plans at its best.

46. Where there is oil the fiendish Yankee will go
For its super power rule to grow ever more,
Britain, Norway, Japan are but poodles in Yankee lap,
To yelp bow-wow and jiggle to Bush's frenzied rap.

47. Corrupt leaders did rule in Pakistan once before,
Propped-up by the West to dance Yankee doodle so.
Musharraf ended it all when the West did plot to kill him,
Now he their bosom pal to kill Osama at Yankee whim.

48. Soviet U once a super power to reckon with,
Its satellite states broke off to join NATO no myth.
Russia weakened struggled to keep Chechnya in her fold,
Chechnyan terrorists unleashed by the West fights on so bold.
Where there is oil the fiendish Yankee has a hold.


49. Bin Laden and Taleban in Afghanistan did break the Russian back,
Who aided them with weapons and training if not the CIA pack?
When Osama bin Laden threw bombs at Yankee beast,
Sweet revenge did Yankees take to crush its foe no least.

50. Who supplied Saddam with military aid?
In his war with Iran it must be said.
Donald Rumsfeld and CIA were Sadam's good buddies
To turn against him when to Kuwait he went walkies.

51. Now in Iraq squashed, puppet regime the Yankees did install,
How long to support surely another Vietnam to befall!
From history the Yankees did they ever learn?
Power and greed for oil doth drive them ever to yearn.

52. Shah Reza Mohammed of the House of Palavi,
In Iran his throne, 'King of Kings' his title to be.
With Yankees he was too pally,
With the West ever so jolly.
Iran's oil that drew them all,
Endless flow it cannot stall.

53. Islam under threat people power did rise up,
Mujahideen they were called to fight no let up.
The King of Kings lost his crown to die in Yankee land,
Ayatollah new ruler, contra Yankees took his stand.

54. Ferdinand Marcos of Philippines with cronies danced the Yankee doodle,
His people tired of poverty so long toppled the Yankee poodle.
Treasury he plundered to squirrel away this corrupted goon,
Assets he held in billions in Yankee land in nom de plume.
O Lankan Nation! take heed even now,
To purge such traitors from our midst do vow.

55. Patrice Lumumba, President of Congo he sure was no less,
Yankee doodle he did not dance but balalaika such prowess.
Aligned with Soviet Union them Yankees he did not give a hoot,
Soviet model he aspired for, prosperity to his people took root.
Uncle Sam fuming mad so had him killed,
Their boy Mobuto the vacuum soon filled.
Lumumba University in Russia, a memorial to this day stand,
Where poor nations' youth study free the alternative brand.

56. Mobuto, President he was of Zaire, today's Congo,
He danced the Yankee doodle but not the tango.
World Bank, IMF poured money as aid,
With mineral wealth so vast the West was paid.

57. Six and a half billion in Pounds Sterling did he pocket,
Whilst his people languished so poor and prices did rocket.
The West did they care? Nay, they turned a blind eye,
For offend they could not a key US ally.

58. For fifty years and more Yankees foreign policy has but one theme,
Plunder resources of poor nations by such devious schemes.
World Bank, IMF, and Gang of West, useful tools to realize this,
Third World leaders to corrupt, such fun, their peoples future dismiss.

59. Basque separatists who call themselves ETA,
Autonomous state they claim in northern Espana.
They set-off bombs but give warning to clear the plaza,
Many years they fought with no help from Norwegia.

60. No INGOs, no peaceniks, no Britain, no Yankees help ETA,
No subversion, no de-stabilisation in Spain, our amica.
EU buddy to be supported outright in their fight,
ETA are terrorists to be put down with West's full might.
Super power Spain is not, only India and China they fear,
To be cut down and chopped up devious Yankees do persevere.

61. Velupillai, another Sadam, the Gang of West supports,
"End justifies the means", tigers' motto, Tamilnet reports,
Taught by his gurus and mentors the Gang of West,
So Yankee aims achieved when Bharath laid to rest.

62. Who the heck the Yankees think they are?
To preach human rights to Asia.
Have they forgotten so soon in Vietnam their record?
Or Guantanamo tortures so appalling, Oh my God!

63. Hungry Iraqis Yankees tortured thieving to feed families,
Lined up naked in sexual poses, dogs to bite their goolies.
"Ali Babas" Yankees called them, reviled, beaten, forced to admit
Crimes not committed, Yankees go unpunished before Hague, damn it!
Bush and Rumsfeld, hyper powers think they, the untouchables.

64. Dire warnings scientists gave about global warming,
Yankee chimneys still spew out noxious fumes no heeding.
As heat waves dry out springs, lands to become so arid,
Water of life so precious whether cold or tepid.

65. Lanka's waters the Gang of West doth eye to grab for themselves
A resource they value to be plundered from Lankan natives.
Billions paid in loans from World Bank, IMF
To tie up our water as co-lateral, with no ref.
Lankan farmers hit yet again , burdened with water tax, they top themselves.

66. Bharath and China are no Yankee poodles,
Chop-chop hurry no time to eat those noodles.
Build your economy, build your military might,
Throw those INGOS out, those spies and lackeys outright.

67. Aid packages limitless from the West with strings attached,
Do you really need them to build your countries unmatched?
India and China did both enjoy a glorious past,
Their cultures their economy, so rich so vast.
Do you need World Bank, IMF to regain your past?

68. Where were Britain, Norway, France and arrogant USA?
They were but forest dwellers, hunter gatherers day by day.
When India, China boasted glorious civilisations,
The West was living in such squalor with no illumination.

69. O India! O China! delay no more I pray,
Gain glorious futures, join forces today.
Defy the West, be no poodles to George W. Bush,
Crush your terrorists unleashed by the West, with mighty push.

70. F-18s, and seat in Security Council table,
To address the Congress, an invitation so subtle.
Would Bharath be lulled to sleep with such sweeteners?
While Yankees plot Bharath's demise, have they no heart, no tears?
They creep on you and cut your throat. Oh so insidious!

71. Where Bharath has failed China does shower us with aid,
No strings attached true leadership to the world made.
Its goals so transparent, no subversion of small nations,
China growing shares wealth with global friends true ambition.
Hail China! New leader in new world order,
We breathe freed West's imperialist yoke asunder.

72. A new virus called 'betrayal-o-coccus' in our midst doth lie,
High and low it has afflicted as the nation will surely die.
Corrupted leaders engaged so by heinous West,
To spread it thick and fast with no morals we protest.
O India! O China! This virus from West is aimed at you,
Tested first on small nations, large nations can catch it too.

73. Do you lie helpless Asia's King Pins to watch and wait,
While 'betrayal-o-coccus' doth besiege your open gate?
Close the portals, kill the coccus,
While healthy you stay yet with us.
India and China united our saviour
Small nations look to you as champs to revere.

74. Kadirgamar, Foreign Minister brave, scholarly and held in high esteem,
An honourable man, who trod a righteous path, every woman's dream.
A Tamil who campaigned to lay bare the terrorist face of LTTE,
Foreign States to ban the tigers he achieved to reject their eelam plea.
Condemned to die by tiger bullet when opportunity did strike,
"Who cares!" shrugged Kadir, "I am at peace with God".
He responded true martyr like.
Tamil masses' voice he was to reject tiger blood lust and its iron fist,
Ere long to rust as did Hitler's and Stalin's in history's distant cruel mist.

75. Gangodavila Soma Himi, a scholarly monk revered by all,
Righteous life he led, the Five Fold Way, exemplary by no means small.
Far and wide he traversed to preach the sacred Dhamma Holy Buddha taught,
A beacon of light he was to shine our path, when lost in dark desire caught.
Spiritual revival he sought, lives changed, peace and happiness to be gained,
Radical Christianity aghast as Buddhism revived his zeal unrestrained.

76. Ire aroused the zealots conspired to be rid of this Buddhist revivalist,
To Russia they lured him seemingly to confer 'Honours' for his doctrinal writ.
To preach to Buddhist laity in Moscow, Lankans eagerly awaiting.
Innocently he went only to fall foul to an old KGB technique,
Cyanide gas held to his face and forced to breathe by hired assassins clique.
Cardiac arrest massive triggered though cyanide gas in his body no trace left.
Only at death's door to Hospital taken for 'surgery' to cover their theft,
Threat removed, doors opened yet again for foul proselytism by corrupt ways,
Buddhism destroyed , political domination swayed as in imperial days.

77. For those who loved Venerable Soma Thero hear this I beg to say,
If not in this life in life hereafter, evil killers will not get away.
Their just desserts they will surely get, banished to suffer eternal hellfire,
May Venerable Soma Thero, illustrious son of Lanka, attain eternal Nirvana!

78. The Catholic Church it stands today strongly condemned,
For tiger atrocity and genocide unrestrained.
RJ, the bishop, his stripes barely camouflaged,
Some 'priests' he led hidden tigers in cloth, the nation charged.
Cassocks hiding bombs, guns and money, in cars they ferried,
Are they 'Men of God' or satan's slaves? You rightly queried.
The Archbishop in the capital you ask, "What says he?"
As mayhem tigers unleash countrywide in killing spree.
Why his lips sealed, God's rep or Machiaveli? we do query.

79. In Arantalawa, Buddhist monks by the scores in bus gunned down,
Muslim faithful at Friday prayers butchered in Baticaloa town.
Nine hundred STF on RP orders forced to surrender,
Only to be slaughtered wholesale peace treaty torn asunder.
Norway Peace Monitors, What a joke! As they turned a blind eye,
Mahinda, President, sent them packing back to Norwegia.

80. 'Crimes Against Humanity', 'War Crimes' the tigers did unleash,
Sinhala villages ravaged and huts set on fire,
Pregnant wombs slashed open, women raped in the mire.
Infants held by their legs high,
To be dashed hard on rocks nearby.
"Waste a bullet", the tigers grinned, "Why?"


81. Heads chopped-off hung on forest branches,
By their flowing tresses grim warning to others.
Their blood cries to high heaven in despair,
"Oh dear God! Your eternal justice where?"
To oppose their atrocities who dares?
To the Hague to arraign them do you care?

82. "Ethnic Cleansing" so the West in unison calls it,
Euphemism for genocide as if it's alright.
Poverty stricken Tamils and social misfits,
Brainwashed suicide killers in C-4 Kits.
When eelam wars the tigers finally lose,
Terror unlimited the tigers then choose.

83. Easy pickings, the tigers laugh, these soft targets,
To halt the Liberation Armies, no regrets,
Relentlessly the Armies inch forward to conquer
Tigers' lair, a hell hole, to hunt down Lucifer.

84. Lucifer the 'Light Bearer', a fallen angel I refer,
Prabhakaran, the 'Light Emitter', but son of Lucifer,
Forsooth, he is now but 'life's light eliminator'.
He took up the sword by the sword he shall die,
His deluded cause espoused those with him shall lie.

85. Did I hear you say RIP?
No Siree, not on your nelly.
For in hell he shall surely fry,
Though he may yell and cry, flat on his belly.
This at least Prince Diyasena will boldly ensure,
Lanka liberated from West's subversion secure.
