This is what Sinhala nationalism has turned out to be.

Joy is in giving. To overcome greed one should generously give.

The south should allow Tamil nationalism to prosper by giving them Tamil Eelam generously.

“1. They have accepted and agreed the legitimacy and the political ability of the Sinhala nation and their state in the south”

was there ever a doubt that there is a legitimate and democrtically elected nation over both the north and south?
i dont think that the Sinhala or sri Lanakan people should just start a negociation stating they only have a legitimate authority to the south….

Jaffna muslims and singhalese who were chased have a right to the north also for a start to talks.
