Politically Incorrect’?
Reading Nalin Swaris’ article "Like a Burning Log" where he names and shames the pro-Tiger triad of Jehan,Pakiasothy and Kumar I was struck by a "politically incorrect" but easily verifiable fact.Not one of these persons can be described as representing the majority of Sri Lanka’s citizens. It is an undeniable fact that many organisations and correspondents, who regularly belabour "Sinhala Buddhist chauvinists" are headed by, and stuffed with those of "Judeo-Christian" [as Nalin de S calls it] persuasion . Any other country would have given short shrift to such "human rightists" if they were always led by members of microscopic minorities that always badmouth the majority community. Do we hear NGOs incessantly criticising Muslim attitudes in Pakistan or Bangladesh?
