Let me say this to Raja and all others who back the argument for two nations in Sri Lanka. There are more tamils living outside than inside of the areas that you define as tamil homelands. None of these folks, including myself and my family, wish to relocate to a newly created ethnic tamil ghetto in Jaffna or Batticaloa. YOU TELL ME what we are supposed to do, if your goals is ever achieved? Of course, this is a moot point now that the crazy Sun God is dead. Was it your idea that we should all give up everything and move in an exodus to the promised land?? How do we establish our right to live in such a ghetto? I am a mixed Tamil-Sinhala person who speaks only sinhala and english, where do I belong? Can sinhala people live in your homeland too? Can they do business too like it used to be in Jaffna pre1970s?

I challenge any PRO-TIGER members of the Tamil diapora living in Canada, UK, Sweden, Australia etc to provide me an answer to this question. By the way, please add to your answer what you intend to do too (i.e. your intent to move your entire clan back to this ghetto).

The position of the tamil people around the world regardless of their allegiance with the LTTE is clear: Let’s have a referendum. Let the people decide. It’s interesting that the GOSLs response to this argument is to completely deny the existence of the historic tamil nation. Just like the Iranians, who start out with a policy of not recognizing Israel deny the holoaust , the GOSL starts with the racist premise that Sri Lanka belongs to the Sinhalese, and therefore have no choice, but to deny the existence of the historic tamil homeland. Curiously, it’s the same extreme “nationalists” who are quick to annoint President Rajapakse as the modern day Dutugemunu. Dutugemunu is of course, was according to Sinhalese history, the last Sri Lankan king to take his army to the north and defeat the great tamil king Elara to unite the island. By doing so aren’t these so called “nationalists” admitting that even a thousang years ago there was a tamil kingdom with a king named Elara?

Some of the people caught in the wanny jungle at the moment are from the villages near Trincomalee district boarder, Madawachi district boarder, Mannar, and Jaffna boarders of wanny. These peolple have been displaced and became refugees many times. The people in the kokilai, and wali oya region has been made refugees for more than 20 years.

This will give some idea about the state of these people.
