Dutch PM: "Let us rejoice. Lets be optimistic. Dutch can do it again. The VOC mentality across borders in dynamic ways."

Sri Lanka: "The office of the High Commissioner(UNHRC) can not be the new equivalent of East India Company (VOC) that Sri Lanka shall not subscribe to" 5:43

The statement made by Dutch Prime Minister, Jan Peter Balkanenda in the Dutch Parliament was not just a couple of wrong words spit out of the mouth at the wrong time, at the wrong place. It was reflected the needs of West Europeans. Its was well proven during Sri Lanka war against separatist terorism. Sri Lanka's humanitarian operation should not have been a crisis at all, If European had no hidden agendas. They must be happy that LTTE terrorism is finally wiped out but Europeans have made such a huge drama from unintended civilian casualties during the last stage of Sri Lanka war (the largest humanitarian operation in the world which rescued 300,000 civilians from the most ruthless terrorists). The west media and NGOs had anti-Sri Lanka propagandas for the last two years during the war against LTTE terrorists.

Dutch society is proud of its history and they are looking for opportunities together with former West European colonials to have a power base in the Indian ocean.

RESEARCH
Against history: the role of history in current Dutch society

Finding from a research: Dutch society is strongly influenced by its history but past solutions for current societal problems that are based on historical analogies are wrong and even dangerous.

Research limitations/implications This paper is focused only on Dutch society. It would be interesting to see whether the Dutch situation is also applicable to other Western European countries.

Practical implications To make the Dutch society more future-oriented there are four recommendations: make the future a subject in schools; extend the Dutch government mandates to eight years; force managers and politicians to measure their investments, plans and ideas against future developments; and the foundation of a future museum and a canon for the future.

Originality/value Most futures researchers do not oppose history as a guide to the future because they often (wrongly) see the past as a source of information and knowledge that can serve the future.

Update: May 24 2011 (Island) Dutch Judiciary accuses LTTE leaders of extortion. The Dutch judiciary says that Tamil Tiger leaders in the Netherlands have played a prominent role in financing the civil war in Sri Lanka. The 10,000 Tamils in the Netherlands, police say, were under the iron grip of the guerilla group. The investigation into possible criminal activities by the Tigers in the Netherlands has been ongoing for the past two years under the code name 'Operation Koninck.' http://www.island.lk/index.php?page_cat=article-details&page=article-deta...

  • June 9 (Island) Lanka appreciates Dutch probe, highlights limitations in global action. Until the collapse of the LTTE in May 2009, the Netherlands hadn't given the go ahead for a comprehensive investigation targeting the LTTE, though the Dutch Intelligence and Security Agency (AIVD) recommended action in October 2008. Sjors van Beek, in an explosive article captioned 'Cover for Tamil terror' carried in Norwegian paper Binnenlands Bestuur, dealt with what he called a Mafia-like extortion racket

  • Dutch VOC mentality. Preach humanity, support terrorists! Dutch Govt officially Supported LTTE terrorits.

    Jan 24 (Island.lk) "Netherlands: Italy, France felt US behind move, opposed LTTE proscription by EU" A classified US diplomatic cable, captioned ‘Tokyo co-chairs pre-meetings’ has revealed an attempt by the Netherlands to thwart an EU statement targeting LTTE over continuing terrorist attacks in spite of the CFA.

  • When I hear abuses from Europeans, I doubt if they are genuine on Human Rights? If they are genuine, why dont they discuss own human rights abuses? Why did/do not talk of invasion in Iraq and Israel? They defend their own abuses and stick their fingers in other issues. Sri Lanka won a great war. A war against most inhuman terrorist group who used 300,000 Tamil people as a shield. Govt didnt give up like other times. Casualties are inevitable in wars.

  • Those white flag surrender of terrorists at last stage of war was a suicide when they were boxed to 1sqkm surounded by heavy military. Europeans wanted to continue this war and save those bunch of terrorists. EU, USA had evacuation plans save 300 LTTE cadres and the leadership to continue Elam war. So EU, USA can sell their militaryware. We should not let this war crime panel against Sri Lanka. We must protest in masses nationally and internationally. Like those Tamil Diaspora did to save LTTE.

  • Finally Dutch realizes Sri Lanka.

    July 3 (MoD) The Netherlands' Ambassador to Sri Lanka Leoni Cuelenaere who called on Prime Minister D.M. Jayaratne yesterday said her government appreciates the stand taken by Sri Lanka on international pressures. The Government of the Netherlands appreciates the diplomatic and strategic position upheld by the Government of Sri Lanka with respect to the pressure exerted by certain countries in connection with the internal political issues of the country

  • Netherlands backs IOM programmes in Sri Lanka

    July 3 (IOM) The Netherlands has pledged EUR 2 million (LKR 277,820,000) to support two IOM programmes that are helping IDPs to return home and reintegrating former LTTE Tamil Tiger combatants into civil society. The contribution of EUR 1 million to each programme will allow IOM to continue to help families to return to their home areas in the north and east of the country from Menik Farms and other displacement camps in Vavuniya

  • Dutch people have power in the netherlands not Maroccan or Turken. Dont be hypocrite you are suggesting Sri Lanka should be divided in to 2 or 3 states to give minorities more power., Why dont you do a pilot programme in the Netherlans and let us know. SL never discriminated Tamils like Dutch did in South Africa or treated as slaves like your Balkanenda boasted VOC time. Diversity within united country is the solution. SLTamils brought by Dutch in 1600 as labour, their homeland is Tamil Nadu.

  • they did was dividing ethnicities and spreading flithy deceases. White men always thought that they discovered new worlds that is how ignorant they were and still are. People from Africa came to Andaman Islands and started a civilazation in Asia. And king Vijay came to Sri Lanka 2500 years ago. The white race only exists for 6000 years. Dutch prime minister is a fucking faggot.
