You suggest that there must be equal rights for all parties. Yet, you do not wish the Sri Lankan government to tie up with any state having a substantial Tamil population. Tamils are a vastly overwhelmed minority in Sri Lanka–how do you expect them to get their rights from a racist government and a racist majority community? Are you conveniently forgetting why the Tamil Tigers emerged in the first place? They didn’t just come out without provocation. They emerged as a desperate response to Sinhalese nationalist racist chauvinism.

MIA is just as much “Sri Lankan” as Delon who was born and lives in the USA…and Gothabaya who is a US citizen… or do you have to be Sinhalese to be called “Sri Lankan”?

It is not by keeping people in internment camps, continuing sexual abuse, giving them some food and doing loads of pointless propaganda that the state is going to win the hearts and minds of the northern people. If things continue at this pace, the sri lankan government is cutting its own grave underneath its feet.

Very nicely put. I’m not against some pressure on the govt. to make sure as many lives as possible are saved. But these attempts to stop the war is to set the precedent that any terrorist group can get away with anything as long as they have a human shield to protect themselves. Certainly a worthy example for other terrorist organizations across the world to follow!

Point is “most” you live in an utopian democratic land which doesn’t exist in the real world. You want countries like US, UK, and EU lot to intervene in Sri Lankan domestic issues when they scot-free doing the same thing more or less. Atleast in Sri Lanka we fight an internal threat to security. Where as the rest are invading other sovereign countries in B52 bombers. Squeezing the weak by them is just an opportunity for those countries to momentarily tread on a delusional moral high ground pretending they respect human rights. It’s all a facade to project false morality to an otherwise f*ed up place called the world! Clearly most of you don;t know how bad the world is since you think genocide is occurring in Sri Lanka. What a degradation/misuse of a word for propaganda.

Why do you think today’s UN resolution got blocked? Because there are other countries (non western emerging power houses) that doesn’t need to kid them selves pretending to be moral. They’re no better than the earlier lot but at least they provide the ying to the yang! If UK really cared about what was happening in the NFS they can just hover one of their military satellites over the area and get real time updates – including who’s doing the shelling. Please don’t tell me this is not possible and they don’t have the resources. What the UNOSAT “leaked/provided” was just a joke and proves jack all.

Thus the logical conclusions are that they just can’t be bothered because they don’t care about the civilian plight or the government isn’t shelling! Instead of speculating they could just back allegations with evidence. Leaves you to wonder?

Point is most of you very well know the dirty tactics that the LTTE is engaging in but won’t utter a word because deep down you want them to win. Get that ellam over any sacrifice. It’s sad but few genuine sympathizers of these civilians like DBS Jeyraj (prominent blogger) has made comments on this matter. All you can do is vilify him over the Tamil national question forgetting the real humanitarian crisis.

What I’ve come to understand is that even the Tamil diaspora isn’t all that concerned for the civilians as much as they’re concerned about ellam. Shame because the need of the hour is to rise up against the LTTE. If all the Diaspora took the streets with boards saying free the Civilians LTTE, I guarantee you that LTTE will melt then and there! Civilians would not suffer anymore. But hey.. asif that’d ever happen!

Soft power always beats hard power on the long run.

Hello Dayan

So you are back in teaching. If this new teaching profession to be successful you should have begun with unteaching the Eelam you taught with Varadharaja Perumal before going underground. Chauvinistic Sinhala Buddhists are a difficult lot to teach because they have nothing in their brains except the good memory of scoundrels.

This land belongs to Sinhala Buddhists. Tamils, Muslims, Burghers et al can live as parasites. This is what the modern day great warrior Sarath Fonseka controversially stated according to some media personnel. I hope he is keenly watching all the dramas you are enacting in disguise. He is really tide up with delivering last rites to your –behind the scene- Eelam project. Hope he will answer you in real time when he is free.

Once upon a time we heard Sant Jarnail Singh Brindanwale and Khalistan. He and all his disciples attained Khalistan in Moksha. Golden Temple is back in its former glory making 100,000 Chapathi everyday to feed the Sardhajis. International Sikh Diaspora is living happily all over the globe. Why shouldn’t they when Hanuman Singh is dictating terms from New Delhi whilst Paradeshi marking time to put the progeny back in the hot seat. This is what a colleague from Maharashtra uttered over a couple of Amurtha. An ardent VHP worshipper. Another Chauvinist eh.

So you are a great fan of MIA and want our Chauvinistic Sihnala Buddhist girls and boys to follow suit. Not a bad idea. With added glamour of a cross around the neck. You take my mind back to Don Juan Dharmapala and the Goa hiphop.
