THis is childish in nature. it is like, you get angry with your brother, go to neighbor house and tell them not to play cricket with you brother.

How sri lankan can live with this kind of fellow citizens?

you stupid americans you have no idea of the truth in Sri Lanka. when China has the support of every small country that you have alienated we will all have to pay with our freedom

Every Tamil knows the how cruelly their people are treated in Sri Lanka and hoe courrent government is ethinically cleansing Tamils. Militarising Thamil Eelam should be stopped immidiately and to achieve it , Sri Lanka should be economically pressurised.

Americans should understand that they are funding for ethnic cleansing by buying the Sri Lankan goods.Also boycott Sri Lanka should be spread out to UK , Europe and Australia as well.Tamils have taken democratic path to achieve their freedom and world should support this.

Tamils in Sri Lanka knows how the so called LTTE Tamil tiger leaders (whom we thought were the saviours) treated tamils during the last phase of the war. Sattelite video’s clearly showed how they used innocent tamil civilians as shields at gunpoint and killed or chopped off legs of who ever tried to leave their areas. Now the war is over and the terrorism is gone and Everyone in Sri Lanka are enjoying that freedom of not having to think of LTTE suicide bombers. Sri Lanka may not be the perfect ideal country.. for godsake it was terrorised for 30 years and its just trying to come up and stand on its legs after a brutal war waged by a power hungry group of people. These LTTE supporters looking for different avenues and are trying to suppress Sri Lanka to take revenge. Woeful at its best!! Just some information of people who have created this organisation: Where were these people Born? They were Born in Sri Lanka or their parents were born in Sri Lanka and they received free Education and health and what not from Sri Lanka (which any Sri Lankan citizen gets) and now they are targetting the same country becuase they couldnt win a war they waged against the government. Do you think America will be safe with them. They are oppotunists. I am sorry none of the SriLankan Tamils are with you except for extremists. You are just trying to squeeze the ecenomy of the country your Tamil brothers and sisters are living peacefully with Sinhalese and Muslims and Burghurs. What happens to them? do you think of that for a moment while you get priviledges in USA/UK/Europe etc? Sorry, but you will be cursed for this.

I am a victim of Sinhala Buddhist racialism, riotism and colonizeism. All the Sinhala Buddhist have to be in our shoe to feel the pain of 1956, 1958, 1964, 1971, 1974, 1977, 1981, 1983, 1995 and 2009 poision gas massacre with the help Indians and Chinese and Pakistan.

These people will stop at nothing. They do not want to give up their efforts to carve out a separate homeland for Tamil people in someone else’s country. History will show that they have time and again invaded Sri Lanka from South India and cause destruction and mayhem with a view to occupy the nation and annex it to their country – India. However, in the latter periods, when India stalled their plans to make Tamil Nadu – which is the Tamils’ real homeland – a separate state, they decided to bring the separate state issue across the Palk Straights to Sri Lanka. When they realized that the Sri Lankan people will not let them achieve their dream, they resorted to thuggery and terrorism – first by ethnic cleansing the North and East of Sri Lanka by massacring innocent Sinhala and Muslim population and chasing them out of these areas. Then they went a step further by bombing populated and commercial areas of Sri Lanka killing hundreds of people and destroying public property. Over the past 27 years, the consecutive governments of Sri Lanka had been unable to effectively confront this barbaric terrorist group – known as the Tamil Tigers – due to pressures from their sympathizers from the West and also India – the latter being the ones who trained and armed this terrorists group in the first place. However, the present president of Sri Lanka – Mahinda Rajapakse – came into power assuring the people that he was going to deal with the terrorists appropriately – and so he did taking the battle to the terrorists’ turf – and wiped them off the face of Sri Lanka for good. However, the terrorist supporters overseas have not stopped their tactics and continue to antagonize Sri Lanka. But although some if these Western governments still show some amount of sympathy to this terrorist group and their supporters the people of these countries have begun to realize who these protesters really are. They have realized that these people who have come over to their countries as fake refugees are actually the fund-raising front of the Tamil Tiger Terrorist group and are being a liability to the tax payers of those countries. Furthermore, they still continue to cause havoc in these host countries with their terror activities creating great inconvenience to the people of these countries. Its time these Western nations took appropriate action against these tamil terrorists and curtailed their activities – otherwise they will also have to experience the terrorism that plagued Sri Lanka for almost three decades.

Stop buying SriLankan items, it is covered with blood & promotes government terrorism.

You guys take the easy way by creating this situation of a fake genocide and atrocities to go over to these western countries and successfully gain residency there. Once you achieve this, you take the next step of living there as refugees and taking the government subsidies and “dole” which you eventually syphon out to the coffers of the terrorists in Sri Lanka. One thing is for sure – you guys are absolutely clever in your cunning tactics to convince the suckers of the west of your fake refuge situation and live it up at the expense of the tax payers of those countries. At least do something useful – have the gratitude of paying back to these countries that have taken sympathy on you guys – by working and being useful citizens to them without being a liability to them by organizing protests and blockages of their streets and wasting their time and money. However, its no surprise you fellows act this way – which was the same way you would have acted back home anyway. At least Sri Lankans can be happy that their riddance is now someone else’s liability!

@ PATRIOT,
You are doing justice to Rajapakshe and indeed justify genocide. But how are you going to give justice to Tamils. In your view Tamils are immigrants and singalease are original inhabitants of the island. You are not going to change that idea forever and therefore you are not going to give justice to Tamils. In order to judge something you should read two sides of history i.e front and the back page of the history. When you read just one side you assume that singalease are good and Tamils are bad as if Tamils are asking for something they do not deserve. Tamils ruled srilanka since time immemorial and will continue to rule regarless of any goverment comes to power. Tamils are expecting there mimimal wish to have a liberated land. that is all. All they want is their homeland free from singala colonisation. If you don’t give, then we will have to take it forcibly or nature will do it.

@Sri Lankan

The whole world knew now how Racist Mahinda treated Tamils with – chemical bombs, blanket bombs, killing civilians and children’s, executing surrendered political leaders and kept the entire Vanni population in the concentration camps.

There’s no “two sides” to a history – history is recorded in historical books and there’s no other side to it. Your so-called theologicians like Anton Balasingham were trying to fool the rest of the world by turning history completely around to suit your kind – telling the rest of the world that you guys were the original inhabitants of Sri Lanka. But people like him were successful in this attempt because most of these “rest of the world” were ignorant suckers to believe these tall stories. First of all, if you guys actually were the first inhabitants, then what happened ? Did some sexual inadequacy in your kind prevent you from breeding and populating the country – while the Sinhalese were only having sex all the time and reproducing at a rate?????? Beats me!!!! Was it that Tamils suffered from erectile dysfunction and the only hope for their women was to have sex with the Sinhalese men? Pardon me for my logic – I am not trying to insult you guys – but is that what you are trying to imply? Be realistic mister – you know the history – the real history – not what Anton Balasingham had dreamt about and cooked up. Sinhalese never were worried who were co-habitating with them. As a matter of fact, thousands of years ago, when the invading Chola king Elara was finally defeated and killed, not all of the Dravidan army returned to India – some of them stayed back because they had settled down in Sri Lanka. What we cannot accept is that when you are a minority and you are still accepted as part of the community in the country, you were still trying to go further by trying to claim stake to part of the country as your traditional homeland whereas you know very well where your origins are! And your terrorists like prabhakaran killed innocent Sinhalese people with his ethnic cleansing tactics to chase them away from the North and East of their own country. Well enough was enough. That’s the reason why it came to this present situation. Its not only you guys who have the right to feel for your own kind – we too have the right to feel for ours – and for the truth. Sinhalese are a proud race no doubt – but an extremely tolerant race too. That’s the reason why in our Buddhist temples we still have little kovils containing Hindu deities and gods and we respect them and worship them – while all you guys have been doing from the time of history was whenever your ancestors invaded Sri Lanka they damaged and plundered the Buddhist shrines and temples. Even now, none of your politicians have remorse for all the atrocities that were committed by terrorist prabhakaran and his murderous outfit. You guys prefer to justify his barbaric deeds. Well, as you are now well aware, we have managed to wipe out the tamil terrorism from the face of Sri Lanka once and for all – and will be vigilant not to let it repeat. Time will heal this feelings and build mutual trust between us, and we shall be able to co-exist without any prejudice once again. But it takes two hands to clap – but if one side doesn’t want to cooperate – then there will not be any reciprocation from the other side. So, as long as you guys continue antagonizing us and still trying divide our motherland, we shall not give up our right to resist it and fight any one who tries to do so. You can understand from this argument alone to what extent our mistrust has gone – but believe me, we as Sinhalese people forget and forgive in a short time – and you have the opportunity to reach out to take our hands that we have already extended to you and come back to Sri Lanka and coexist with us as we had done before. Its all up to you – you have two choices – live and let live OR stay where you are!

PATRIOT – you do justice to your name. May your patriotism do good to the Sri Lanka you dream of. However patriots and hero’s turn into traitors and zero’s very quicky in Sri Lanka.

I read that the Sinhalese society is devided by caste differences. I also read that the underlying reason why Fonseka is treated the way he is today, is becuase he belongs to the Kuruve caste. Its a known fact that the Sinhalese society remains dominated by the Govigamas (to which Rajapakse belongs). Do you think patriots like you irrespective of your caste will be treated equal in the Sinhalese society?

I invite all readers to check the following link. The images are very disturbing – so are the details of hundreds of massacres carried out by the tamil tiger terrorists on innocent people during three decades of their barbaric reign.

http://www.sinhaya.com/Massacres.htm

(cut-and-paste the above)

Why is it that everytime somebody asks a question to a Sinhalese, they start from 1985 ang go on about LTTE atrocities like a parrot?. Not just PATRIOT, almost all Sri Lankan ministers and delegates do this in international television. Next time before you ask a question to a Sinhalese, please tell him/her to cut the crap and answer the question. PATRIOT – Now will you enlighten us by talking about why Fonseka a Kuruve caste member is treated like a dog?

You are an idiot Murugan. The caste system which indeed prevailed amongst the Sinhala people also a long time ago, totally diminished and does not exist at all now. Its in Jaffna and other Tamil dominated areas the caste system still prevails. I remember when my uncle was living in KKS, I used to visit them often. I remember there used to be workers at this particular factory complex who were also sent to the houses where my uncle (who was the factory manager) and his family lived amongst all other managers’ houses to do the gardening and other labor chores. My aunt used to ask them to sit down with them and give them a cup of tea and talk with them because we treat them like humans – whereas just next door, there was a Jaffna Tamil man who was one of the other managers, but he and his wife used to treat these workers like crap. These poor workers – who were also Tamils – were mortally scared of these people – and would dare not even look them in the eye. They would dare not sit in the presence of this manager or his wife – nor did they get a cup of tea – but tap water which was given to them in something that looked like either a coconut shell or perhaps some other palm nut shell. This manager’s wife would just yell at them for no reason. I understood later that it was because this manager and his wife are supposed to be from a high caste while the poor workers were from low caste. I also observed this while traveling in a bus from KKS to Jaffna with a friend when a well dressed older man got into the bus and there was only one seat left next to an old woman who didn’t seem to be that well dressed. The man who got into the bus just went upto the where the old woman was seated and looked at her in a stare and that poor woman immediately got up and left the seat – allowing the man to occupy the seat by himself though there was enough room for them both. I turned to my friend – who is also a Sinhalese but used to live in the North and was very fluent in Tamil – and he told me softly that the man must be from a high caste – and it is mandatory that the woman who must be from a low caste had to get up and not only offer him the seat, but not allowed to sit next to him either !!!!! The poor old woman was then standing next to me – and I immediately got up and offered her my seat – which is something we have been taught in our culture and by our parents – to respect age. The old woman didn’t want to sit at first but finally did when she realized I was insisting her to sit on that seat. I then noticed to my amazement that almost all the people in the bus including the conductor – looked at me with disapproval when I did this. I was so confused and didn’t understand what it meant until we got off at Jaffna bus stand and my friend told me that I shouldn’t have done that because “its not the system here – the caste system does not allow things like what I did”. This is a true story and happened in October 1977. I must say though that the ordinary people of Jaffna were lovely and friendly. I used to go to the tavern across the road and the man there used to keep me a whole bottle of Thal toddy every evening. Although I couldn’t speak Tamil I got on well with all those simple people who used to come to the tavern – and communicated with some of them who knew Sinhalese and English. So don’t tell me about the caste system my dear murugan – you guys are obsessed with this caste system and will never change.

Murugan, as for your question, whatever the caste of Sarath Fonseka belongs to is immaterial. But if he’s a traitor, he will be treated like one. Moreover, if he has committed shameless acts of treason, then he will be heard and punished accordingly. Sri Lanka has laws – not the Kangaroo types when the Tamil terrorists were controlling the North. By the way, I don’t even know what the kuruve caste is or if such things even exist. None of my friends or family know this either because it doesn’t exist amongst the Sinhala people anymore.

Why don’t you try Tamil Nadu once again (like you guys did prior to your claims of Nothern Sri Lanka) – when the then Indian Prime Minister Indira Gandhi kicked those Tamil separatists out and foiled that attempt? I am sure with no strong leadership in India now you might be successful in establishing a separate Tamil nation in Tamil Nadu – independent from mainland India.

Patriot – do you mean to say that this article from Sunday Leader is constructed from thin air:

>In the ensuing post-poll purge of the military, the Karave have disproportionately been targeted. Other Karave generals have been sacked from the armed forces. Karave Buddhist monks had been arrested. Much to my chagrin, caste may still be alive in Sinhala Buddhist society, albeit as an undercurrent.

http://www.thesundayleader.lk/2010/02/14/the-sinhala-caste-equation-and-fonseka-arrest/

>In the late 1800s, Charles Henry de Soysa, the foremost Karave philantrophist, had hosted a banquet to the Duke of Edinburgh in Colombo, an event boycotted by the Govigama political elite led by Solomon Bandaranaike. Dr. Marcus Fernando, a Karave leader of no mean accomplishment, ran for the Educated Ceylonese seat at the 1911 elections. The Govigama elite, led by the Senanayakes, successfully defeated him and ensured the victory of Sir Ponnambalam Ramanathan, a Tamil candidate, instead. The Govigama preferred Tamil leadership to that of the Karave Sinhalese. That was treachery on the part of the Govigama.

And how about this one: Caste factor in Sri Lanka politics (http://www.island.lk/2010/01/03/features12.html):
>He then told me (something which I, a Wariyapola resident for the last decade or so, did not know) that the winner in Wariyapola, usually a Goigama candidate, has to have the support of the Kammal and the Badahala people who have influential vote banks. He opined that Karawe candidates can never win seats in the NWP and Central Province even if they are “kingfishers”.

Patriot – Looks like you are patriotic to a nation that you truly do not know. A nation that will not reward you unless you are not from the right caste. Fonseka or you- you folks can never be the true sons of Sri Lanka – no matter how many Tamils you kill or torture.

http://thelede.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/03/16/jailed-sri-lankan-opposition-leader-calls-charges-against-him-bogus/

Jailed sri-lankan opposition leader calls charges against him bogus and calls for world wide protest from the “singhalese community” against oppressive Rajapakse regime.

Rajapakse and Gothbaye are evil forces.

Funny, how the internal problems are surfacing now. Hello India, hope you are listening, use the golden opportunity!!

@Patriot,
You have no sense of History and how it is written by two sides of a community. History always have a back page. I think you are in kindergarten to believe whatever your history books say. That is what children will do. matured would take all the references from different authors and then they come to a conclusion after thorough analysis. How come an Indo- Aryan language was born all of a sudden in south srilanka when the whole of south india speaks Dravidian language. Why Tamils from the south did not settle in srilanka even before you aryans came from far north of India. Why did our poet saint Gnana Sambandar sang songs in praise of Tamil God in Eelam. How did Gathirgamar kanda came to existence. Why did Tamil language became a classical language and been attested as the oldest language of South Asia. Why not singalease?. did singalease have grammar at 500 bc. Please ask an archeologist to know who were the first inhabitants of south asia . Is it Tamils or Singalease. We tamils were existing even before the oldest Indus valley civilasation. Do you have any such civilisation. Firstly singalease are not civilised even now and how come you will have a civilasation. First go to history teacher to know the other side of history. I am a history student and I know better than you abt history.

Muruga. You guys and your fake theologicians like Anton Balasingham created so-called history to suit your Tamil separatism claims. These are nothing but myths and not found in any ancient scripts.

Tamil politics in Sri Lanka has always been based on myths. The propaganda machines of the extremist Tamil political parties and the LTTE, both here and abroad, blatantly falsifying facts and propagate myths. The so-called Tamil intellectuals living comfortably in Western Capitals was responsible for not only for inventing some of these myths but also giving a false notion of factuality to them.

Some of these myths simply through constant repetition have gained currency as facts. The expediency of the two dominant political parties – UNP and SLFP in their bitter struggle to come to power and maintain it have bought and even given into some of these myths. In the end, not only the Tamil political parties and the LTTE, but also the two main political parties, UNP and SLFP with its coalitions and some of the Sinhalese liberal intellectuals who toe the lines of the politicians of these two parties are responsible for propagating these myths.

Unfortunately it is the Sinhala people who have been victimized in this saga of myth making. Thus it is very important for us to know what these myths are and to counter them with facts. The myths range from the characterization of the problem to its various facets. Here are some of those notorious myths :

Myth: There is an ethnic problem in Sri Lanka
Myth: Tamils are a nation in Sri Lanka
Myth: There was an independent Tamil Kingdom in Sri Lanka
Myth: Tamils were the original inhabitants of Sri Lanka
Myth: Tamils have a longer historical continuity than the Sinhalese
Myth: Northern and Eastern Provinces are the Traditional Tamil Homeland
Myth: Sinhala Buddhist civilization did not extend to Northern and Eastern Provinces where a Tamil civilization existed.
Myth: All Tamils supports Eelam
Myth: All Tamil speaking people supports Eelam
Myth: Tamils are one of the two majority communities in Sri Lanka.
Myth: Tamils do not have freedom of movement in the country.
Myth: Tamil do not have political freedom
Myth: Tamils do not have freedom of expression
Myth: Tamils have been displaced by colonization schemes
Myth: Sri Lankan governments have been Sinhalese governments
Myth: UNP and SLFP are Sinhalese parities
Myth: Tamils are discriminated against by the Sinhalese
Myth: Sinhalese areas are unsafe for the Tamils
Myth: Sinhalese are extremists and intolerant of minorities
Myth: Tamils want a just and fair solution.
Myth: Tamil political parties are moderate
Myth: LTTE is the sole representative of Tamils

(continued….)

Myth: There is an ethnic problem in Sri Lanka

Reality:
The problem is the brutal Terrorism directed by the LTTE, popularly known as Tamil Tigers against the people especially the Sinhalese and the Sri Lankan state. An ethnic problem is fundamentally a social problem.

An ethnic problem exists when a majority ethnic group discriminates the minorities in the social and cultural sphere on the assumption that the majority is superior and the minorities are inferior in social and cultural terms. In Sri Lanka, the Sinhalese do not perceive them to be superior to the Tamils and Muslims but that they are culturally different. In the everyday life and in social cultural and economic interactions, there is no evidence of Sinhalese discriminating Tamils and Muslims.

We only need to go to any city, town or village in Sri Lanka to find proof that there is no ethnic problem in Sri Lanka. Tamils and Muslims live amidst Sinhalese. Every city and town is dotted with Kovils, Mosques and Churches along with temple. On the other hand, the Sri Lankan state and its people, specially the Sinhalese are under terrorist attacks by the racist LTTE since late 1970s. The tenacity and the destructive power of the terrorists has steadily increased since then.

If one go to the LTTE controlled areas in the North and East and in the recent years the LTTE infested plantation areas in the central highlands the ethnic problem is clearly visible by the non-presence of the Sinhalese. This is not by choice by the terror unleashed by the racist Tamil extremists. If there is an ethnic problem in Sri Lanka it is created and maintained by the Tamils.

LTTE has assassinated a President, Presidential candidate, several Ministers and MPs, a foreign (Indian) Prime Minister, over 200 Sinhalese Buddhist Monks, over 4000 innocent Sinhalese civilians and over 15,000 soldiers. Interestingly enough, LTTE has also assassinated the leaders of all the rival Tamil terrorist groups as well as the leaders of the Tamil political parties e.g. Tamil United Liberation Front.

They have also bombed the two most sacred places of Buddhist Worship in Sri Lanka – the Sri Maha Bodhi, the oldest tree in the world with a recorded history and the Sri Dalada Maligawa, the shrine which house the Tooth of the Buddha. LTTE has also bombed the economic center such as the Central Bank of Sri Lanka, World Trade Center.

Sri Lanka certainly has a terrorist problem unleashed by the racist Tamil extremists led by LTTE.

Myth: Tamils are a nation in Sri Lanka

Reality: Tamils are an ethnic group in Sri Lanka.

If we define nation as a state-centered category, then there is only one nation in Sri Lanka and that is Sri Lankan. If we define nation as an ethnic-centered category then also there is only one ethnically defined nation in Sri Lanka and that is Sinhalese as only the Sinhalese qualifies to be a nation within the territory of Sri Lanka.

Tamils are an ethnic group. An ethnic group is defined as a human grouping bound by culture. The cultural criteria which defines the ethnic group can be the language, religion, historical experience, skin colour, etc. Thus in the case of Tamils we have two distinct ethnic groups. Sri Lanka Tamils (which two is socially divided into three, Jaffna Tamils, Colombo Tamils and Batticaloa Tamils) and the Indian Tamils.

The concept of nation is always used for the creators, defenders and perpetuators of a civilization. Thus Sinhalese, being the creators, perpetuators and defenders of the Sinhalese civilization, are a nation. The Sinhala civilization is over 2500 years old. Tamils on the other hand did not create a civilization of their own in Sri Lanka. Jaffna is the place where the Tamils were numerous but it was not the center of Tamil civilization, which was located in South India. Nation is more than thick density of population of a people speaking the same language.

The Tamil nation exists in Tamil Nadu in India. It has been a historical fact. Kaweri valley has been the center of that Tamil civilization. Northern and Eastern Province were never a center of Tamil civilization. One has to rewrite the Tamil history not only here but also in South India to define Tamils in Sri Lanka as the Tamil Nation. This is a total disgrace and denial to the Tamils in Tamil Nadu who really constitute the Tamil Nation.

Myth: There was an independent Tamil Kingdom in Sri Lanka

Reality: There was a regional Tamil ruler in Nallur for a very brief period.

In the minds of the people and the rulers of this country from 6th Century A.D. the Territory of the Sinhala kingdom was the entire island. So the term Sinhaladipa and Dammadipa. Even the word eelam is only the Tamilized version of Sihala the name given by the Sinhala people for the island. There was never a concept of a Demaladipa. On several occasions during the history of two thousand five hundered years the regional rulers emerged on a few locations e.g. Kelaniya, Ruhuna, Nallur, However, these regional centers were subsequently brought under central control of the King of the country as their existence was considered unacceptable and wrong. In the case of the Nallur kingdom, the task was achieved by the Portuguese. We must note that from a two and half millennia history Nallur regional rulers lasted less than 200 years.

Compared to what the Sinhalese have built in the Dry Zone Plains running all the way to Nagadipa in Jaffana , the so called Jaffna rulers disappeared into oblivion without leaving a trace of their existence.

Myth: Tamils were the original inhabitants of Sri Lanka

Reality:
No one really knows definitely the ethnicity of the original inhabitants of this island. The Tamil ethnonationalists say that the tribes lived in pre-Vijayan era were Tamils. This is nothing but wishful thinking. What is most ironic and even hilarious about this claim by the Tamils is that they accept the existence of the tribes of Yaksha, Naga and Deva, based on the information only available in Mahawamsa all the while condemning and rejecting Mahawamsa as cooked up history of Sinhalese.

If the Tamils were original inhabitants and the three tribes were the Tamils themselves, one is at a loss to understand the lack of historical continuity of them and any archeological, documentary or even oral-tradition evidences. However, the Sinhalese can make a better claim to be the original inhabitants on the argument that the present Sinhalese were the descendants of the original inhabitants of this island and the immigrants who came with Prince Vijaya in the 6th century B.C. The Tamils were possibly the original inhabitants of the areas that fall within present Tamil Nadu Province in India

Myth: Tamils have a longer historical continuity than the Sinhalese

Reality: Sinhalese have the longest historical continuity and permanent Tamil settlements started only in the 11th century.

From the early periods of our history people from South India may have migrated into the island. There may have been Tamils among them as well. However, according to the historical evidence these isolated immigrants have been integrated into the main stream Sinhalese-Buddhist society. What is important is that this integrated process happened ceaselessly and without any violence. The accommodation and integration of outsiders by the Sinhalese-Buddhist society has been an intrinsic quality of the latter. Thus whatever their original identities, upon coming here they all became an integral part of the Sinhalese-Buddhist society.

There is hardly any historical, archaeological, literary evidence to prove the continuation of Tamil settlements in the island longer than that of the Sinhalese. It was only after the 11th century parallel to the drifting of the Sinhalese-Buddhist center southwestward, that Tamils began to migrate in sufficient numbers to have permanent settlements of their own in the northern parts of the island. This is the conclusion of a meticulous historical research carried out by K. Indrapalan, a Tamil Professor of History. The permanent Tamil settlements in the eastern sea board came much later.

However, as these facts do not support the modern day so called “Tamil historians” , Indrapala has been made terra incognita. Other than these self-appointed Tamil historians who falsify the history to legitimize the separatist claim, there isn’t any credible Tamil historian who could prove this Tamil myth. Apparently, the few copies of Indrapala’s Ph. D. thesis are now missing. This and Tamilizing Sri Lankan history are nothing but acts of intellectual terrorism of Tamil ethnonationalists.

Myth: Northern and Eastern Provinces are the Traditional Tamil Homeland

Relity: There is no Tamil Homeland in any part of this island.

Northern and Eastern Provinces were administrative divisions initially created by the British. The criteria for demarcating these provinces were

1. Easy access from the coast.
2. Administrative convenience
3. Cartographic convenience (Southwestern border of Eastern Province)

Thus we have several long and parallel-to-the-sea provinces. Subsequently, the borders of these provinces were changed several times by the post-Independence Sri Lankan governments for various administrative reasons. There is no record by anyone anywhere to claim that the British were demarcating a Tamil Homeland when drawing the boundaries of Northern and Eastern Provinces.

Thus it is extremely insensible and unthoughtful for the Tamil ethnonationlists, this include even known Tamil academics (e.g. S.J. Tambiah, A.J. Wilson and S. Arasartnam) and lesser known academics (e.g. C. Manogaran) and self-appointed “academics” (e.g. Satchi Ponnambalam), not to mention all the Tamil politicians and of course LTTE to accept the administrative boundaries as that of Tamil homeland. The Tamils ethnonationalists must be eternally grateful to the British colonial masters for their visionary favour!

For a geographical area to be a defined as a homeland of a particular group of people certain prerequisites must be met.

1. A distinct civilization must have emerged from that region.
2. The existence of a politically autonomous entity over a significant length of time.
3. A long continued habitation by the same people
4. The concept of a homeland must have historically evolved in the minds of the people.
5 The cultural landscape must reflect the culture of the people All these should have objectively acceptable credible evidence.

The areas of Northern and Eastern Provinces do not satisfy any of these prerequisites and Jaffna peninsula which is predominantly inhabited by the Tamils are most numerous satisfies only the last of the above conditions. (Tamilnadu of course satisfy all these conditions). Thus it is not only factually incorrect but also a disgrace for the Tamils to consider a piece of earth that does not satisfy the above requirements as Tamil homeland. On this basis anyplace with a sizable Tamil population can become a Tamil homeland!

Myth: Sinhala Buddhist civilization did not extend to Northern and Eastern Provinces where a Tamil civilization existed.

Reality: No distinctive Tamil civilization existed in any part of the island but the Sinhala Buddhist civilization spread all over the island.

First of all, the present distribution of Tamils (the maximum spatial spread of Tamils in the history in the island) in the Northern and Eastern Provinces is limited to a few definite areas. This includes Jaffna Peninsula and the adjacent lands in the mainland, Batticaloa and the vicinity and a few littoral areas in Trincomallee. Thus to say that the entire Northern and Eastern Provinces came under a Tamil civilization is nothing but a blatant lie.

Second, the toponymy (place names) in the Tamil areas indicate that most of the current place names are Tamil translations of the original Sinhalese names. Third, there are over 600 ancient Buddhist shrines big and small distributed all over the Northern and Eastern Provinces. Archaeology Department has identified them on the ground and mapped them. However the civiliztion-cleansing and cultural-cleansing programs which TULF started and perfected by the LTTE have almost totally destroyed the evidences of most of these ancient shrines.

Fourth, in spite of these sacrilegious activities of the Tamil extremists, a large number of scared Buddhist places of worship (e.g. Nagadipa, Seruwila, Dighawapi) remain in these two provinces. Fifth, many a evidences of Sinhalese-Buddhist hydraulic civilization is abound in these two provinces. There are numerous stone inscriptions of Sinhalese-Buddhist kings are found in these two provinces. Sixth, the official records and communications of Portuguese, Dutch and English amply prove that these two provinces remained under the suzerainty of the Sinhalese Kings.

It is only in the 12th century that permanent Tamil settlements emerged in Jaffna and thereafter Hindu Tamil culture has spread outward. But it did not create a distinctive and a unique Tamil-Hindu civilization distinctly different from that of Tamil Nadu as the Sinhalese did.

Myth: All Tamils supports Eelam

Reality: All Tamils do not support Eelam

Yes, all LTTE supporters and sympathizers here and abroad support Eelam. Some of the Tamil people who have been treated brutally by the LTTE and other Tamil terrorist organizations that have supposedly entered into democratic politics oppose Eelam. Some of the former terrorist organizations now with representatives in the Parliament and support the government openly opposing Eelam.

Another group of Tamils specially the middle class and wealthy also oppose Eelam as their livelihood is totally dependent on the country at large and among the Sinhalese and not on an exclusively Tamil Eelam. Further they fear that if Eelam is ever realized that they would be the first to loose as it might compel them to leave their present jobs and status and settle inside Eelam. More than anything else they fear to live under LTTE which is authoritarian, undemocratic, brutal, unpredictable and intolerant of traditions of Hindu culture and society. The number of Tamils killed by the LTTE (a rough estimate is around 4000) is far greater than those who died as a result of the war. Those Tamils whose children were forcibly conscripted or abducted by the LTTE to fight for Eelam. A large number of Tamils in the East also opposes Eelam.

Unfortunately, those Tamils who have left for greener pastures, including academics, who live comfortable lives in Western Capitals extend unreserved support to Eelam and thus LTTE. Obviously, they may be trying to pay in dollars for the guilt of enjoying western standard of living while their brethrens are suffering under brutality of LTTE. A large number of Tamils have refugees as a result of LTTE attacks and strategy.

One of the sorry ironies in this saga is the support extended by Tamil political parties to Eelam and LTTE. What this means in real terms is nothing but endorsing and legitimizing terrorism, assassinations, destruction, and all the miseries directed against not only the Sinhalese but also the Tamils themselves. The Tamil political parties in Sri Lanka thus become unique in the world as representatives who assures not the welfare of their people but their destruction.

Myth: All Tamil speaking people supports Eelam
Reality: Tamil speaking Muslims oppose Eelam

The concept of a “Tamil speaking people” was devised as a strategy by the early Tamil political parties e.g. Illankai Tamil Arasu Kadchi (Lanka Tamil State Party erroneously translated as Federal Party) to co-opt Muslims into Tamil political strategy of separation. However, Muslims realizing the covert intention of the Tamil political parties and subsequently the Tamil terrorist movements, disassociated with this concept and rejected Eelam altogether. Muslims have openly declared that they do not want to become a minority within a minority. The fate of the Muslims at the hands of the LTTE has galvanized the Muslims to openly oppose Eelam and LTTE. The Muslims fearing the extremist Tamil claim of homeland, have resorted to demand the southern Eastern Proavince as a Muslim region pausing a direct challenge to Tamil homeland.

Myth: Tamils are one of the two majority communities in Sri Lanka.
Reality: Tamils are a minority in Sri Lanka.

Tamils in Sri Lanka considered them to be one of the two majority communities (other being the Sinhalese) under British dominance. The British themselves nurtured this position for their own reasons during the colonial rule. Thus the Tamils elites were reluctant to accept that they were a minority in Sri Lanka. They then cultivated this mentality among the ordinary Tamils as well. They tried all tricks in the bag to artificially remain a majority. First by opposing universal adult franchise and second by demanding 50% of the seats in the Parliament for the minorities they tried to cling on to the artificial majority status they enjoyed under British. The British at the time, however, rejected this by arguing that any artificial measure to reduce a majority to a minority and eleveate a minority to majority is bound to fail. The pathological inability of the Tamils to accept the fact that they are a minority was expressed by the dictum proposed by S.J. Tambiah -a Tamil academic living in the West, as a “minority with a parity claim”.

Tamils are and will be a minority under the democratic system in Sri Lanka. This is not the fault or a conspiracy of the Sinhalese. It is the plain fact. In fact current fate of the ordinary Tamils in this country at large and in Jaffna and the East in particular is a result of the continuing inability of their extremist political leaders to accept the fact and the reality that they are a minority. When the parity cannot be achieved through democracy, the Tamil leaders have resorted to violence and terrorism. What a leadership!

Myth: Tamils do not have freedom of movement in the country.

Reality: Tamils can move anywhere in the country but the Sinhalese cannot go to the LTTE controlled areas in the Northern and Eastern Provinces and to most of the so called “border villages”.

The argument of the Tamil ethnonationalist that their free movement is strictly curtailed in Sri Lanka is a total lie. One only needs to step outdoors to find evidences of the freedom enjoyed by the Tamils and other minorities to travel and live in any part of the country.

Taking advantage of this freedom, the LTTE has dispatched suicide bombers and other terrorists to many parts of the country. The government is thus forced to establish check points along the highways and at entrances to government offices and other important economic and religious places where people gather. Everyone, including the Sinhalese who are the victims of Tamil LTTE terrorism is subjected to search at these points. It is common sense that LTTE terrorists are Tamils and they speak Tamils. Tamil terrorists do not travel with a identification badge from Prabhakaran. Thus, it is natural, that suspecting Tamils are checked more carefully at these check points to ascertain their bona fide. This is not curtailing the Tamils’ right to free movement. This is ensuring the Tamils’ right to life, Tamils’ right not to be assassinated and blown to pieces by their own so-called liberators.

These search operations are maintained as a measure of public safety. Thanks to these security measures, we have some consolation that we, including the Tamils, can come home every evening alive. However, there are no Sinhalese in Jaffna peninsula, other parts of the Nothern Province and the LTTE controlled areas. Some of those Sinhalese who lived in these areas , including the so called “border villages” were brutally massacred by the LTTE who have engaged in an ethnic cleansing exercise which can only parallel that of Hitler in brutality. Others had to flee from their ancestral homes leaving behind everything and find a new life in refugee camps. These areas have now become no-go and no-come zones for the Sinhalese.

In the rest of the country Sinhalese parents daily worry about their children until they return from schools, the wives/husbands until their husbands/wives come from work for fear of LTTE bombing. The Tamils either do not have or are prevented from expressing such a fear of LTTE bomb threats.

Myth: Tamil do not have political freedom

Reality: Tamils have the political freedom not only to exercise their democracy but also to engage in terrorism.

One only need to do the following to find out the political freedom enjoyed by the Tamils

1. The Number of Tamil political parties registered.
2. The number of Tamil political parties contested in the previous Parliamentary elections
3. The number of Tamil political parties represented in the Parliament
4. The number of Tamil Members of Parliament
5. The number of Tamil Cabinet Ministers
6. The number of Tamil Deputy Ministers
7. The number of Tamil Provincial Councilors
8. The number of Tamil members in Local Government bodies.
9. The number of Tamil voters in Northern and Eastern Provinces
10. The number of Tamil voters in the rest of the country.

The picture emerging out of all these is that Tamils enjoys political freedom in the same way as others in Sri Lanka, outside the LTTE controlled areas. In the LTTE controlled areas, no one except Prabhakaran himself, not even his deputy as we had come to realized, enjoys political freedom. Since late 1970s the Tamils who live under LTTE grip have not had the opportunity or freedom to vote in any election. While the Governments have made every effort to hold elections in these areas, the LTTE never allows it.

The Government have held elections in areas that were liberated from the LTTE. Although, the LTTE tries to prevent the Tamils from voting in these areas through threats and intimidation, the ordinary masses have defied them and exercised their right to poll. The aversion of the LTTE to political freedom is arises from the fear that it will shatter the myths that they are the sole representatives of Tamils, that they are the liberators of Tamils, that they enjoys the unreserved consent of the Tamils. The last thing that the LTTE wants is to allow free political expression for the Tamils in the areas controlled by them and elsewhere in Sri Lanka as well as in the heartlands of England, Canada and France where sizable Sri Lankan Tamils reside . What happened to Neelan Thiruchelvam says it all.

If there is ever a concept called “political freedom for terrorism” then the LTTE enjoys this fully and at will all over Sri Lanka and only the Sri Lankan armed forces and police spoiling it.

Myth: Tamils do not have freedom of expression
Reality: Tamils enjoy the freedom of expression to the extent allowed by the LTTE.

One only needs to do the following to find evidence for the level of freedom of expression enjoyed by the Tamils.

1. Read Sri Lankan dailies or weekend newspapers published in Tamil and English
2. Read the newspapers published in Jaffna
3. Listen to Voice of Tigers
4. Follow the proceedings of any national conference on the ethnonationalist problem in Sri Lanka.
5. Follow the Hansards
6. Listen to the Radio and TV debates and Talk shown on the ethnonationalist problem in Sri Lanka.

Although advocating separatism or supporting separatism is a constitutional offence in Sri Lanka, the Tamils, this time not only the LTTE terrorists, but also Tamil politicians, academics, columnists and even the man on the streets commit this offense at will without any fear. This clearly shows the , level of freedom of expression enjoyed by the Tamils in Sri Lanka.

The only limitation for the freedom of expression is the LTTE’s threat. Thus no Tamil dare to criticize LTTE. Those who defy this have to pay the supreme price or go hiding. The number of Tamils who met this fate (including Mahattaya, the once second in command of LTTE to Neelan Tiruchelvam, internationally respected human rights lawyer and Murugyya Asokan, who refused to send his boy to become one of LTTE terrorists) is too long to present here. The LTTE has taken the freedom of expression to a new level by permanently shutting the opposing views and criticisms.

The nature of freedom of expression in Sri Lanka defies any rational analysis. While the Tamil terrorists enjoy the full freedom of expression guaranteed by the state against the state itself, the law-abiding Tamil citizens are denied this freedom by the very terrorists. Now who is responsible for the denial of freedom of expression of the Tamil people? However, the Sinhalese, who have been on the receiving end of Tamil LTTE terrorism, are branded as extremists, chauvinists, and racists when they merely mention these atrocities by the Tamils and as trying to disrupt peace and create ethnic disharmony by the government.

The best example of the denial of expression was when one of the vice-chancellors appointed by this government refused to authorize a student organization because the word “Sinhala” appeared on the name of that organization. They were asked to come back without the word Sinhala.

Myth: Tamils have been displaced by colonization schemes

Reality: No Tamils were displaced by colonization schemes but over 200, 000 Sinhalese were displaced from their ancestral homes due to colonization schemes.

Colonization schemes were located in the areas in the North Central Province, Eastern Province and very little in the Northern Province (due to no rivers) where there were ancient tanks (reservoirs) built by the Sinhalese-Buddhist Kings. These areas continued to be populated by the Sinhalese although the population density was low. These tanks, after over a millennia of neglect, were rehabilitated first by the British and then by the Sri Lankan government and the Sinhalese selected from the thickly populated areas were settled in these areas. Most of the settelements and irrigated paddy lands were developed by clearing the jungles. According to British reports, Tamils refused to settle in these colonization schemes. No Tamils were displaced in the process of rehabilitation of these ancient irrigation works. The Gal Oya scheme, a new reservoir project led to displacement of some Tamils but they were provided with alternative lands in the vicinity.

On the other hand under the Accelerated Mahaweli Development project launched in the name of national development over 200 000 Sinhalese people who lived in the prosperous valleys of Hulu Ganga (Teldeniya) and Kotmale Oya, lost their ancestral lands for ever. They were settled in the System C and B in downstream Mahaweli. Thus if any, who lost their lands, it was the Sinhalese.

This was not the first time the Sinhalese had to sacrifice their land. In the mid 1800s after the Uva Rebellion the British selectively and also indiscriminately killed a large number of Sinhalese in the central highlands and even a larger number of Sinhalese fled these areas. Then in late 1800 a large number of Sinhalese lost their land to the draconian land laws of the British colonial rule. These lands which once belonged to and occupied by the Sinhalese were converted to plantations and Tamils who were brought from India to work as labourers in these plantations were settled in these areas. Today the Indian Tamils have begun to claim the ownership of these lands as “malainadu”.

The ethnic riots in 1983, 1986 and 2000, the Indian Tamils have engaged in a calculated strategy to chase away the few Sinhalese who live in isolated villages in the plantation areas. It has been the undeclared policy in the plantation areas not to allow the expansion of Sinhalese villages. A clear example of this is the destruction and removal of the Buddhist temple built by the villagers of Bogahawatte. All requests by the villagers have fallen into deaf ears for the last 20 years. However, the number of Hindu Kovils and Christian Churches are mushrooming in the vicinity. The ethnic cleansing by the LTTE has completely forced off the Sinhalese from the Jaffna peninsula and the LTTE controlled territory. The total number thus displaced was over 100,000.

While no Tamils were displaced by the colonization schemes, the British plantation scheme, the Mahaweli scheme, the ethnic cleansing scheme and the Indian Tamil’s malainadu scheme together has displaced over a million Sinhalese during the history of this country. Some of them had to make the supreme sacrifice as well.

Myth: Sri Lankan governments have been Sinhalese governments

Reality: Sri Lankan governments have accommodated the minorities and their interests to the neglect of the Sinhalese interests.

Tamil ethno nationalists and especially the LTTE terrorists have always refered to Sri Lankan government as Sinhalese governments. However, we the Sinhalese find it very difficult to believe that the post-independence governments have actually being Sinhalese governments, although we wish that it were the case. If they were Sinhalese governments why then there has been so much resentment against these governments from the Sinhalese. What was the need to have a Sinhala Commission appointed by the civil society to look into the grievances of the Sinhalese after 50 years of “Sinhalese governments”.

It is true that the post independent prime ministers and Presidents were Sinhalese in ethnicity but in their policies and politics they have not behaved as Sinhalese. In fact, if they did pay any attention to the Sinhalese, it is only to come to or to stay in power (e.g. SWRD Bandaranaike’s Sinhala Only Bill, elevating Buddhism to constitutional status by Sirmavo Bandaranaike’s 1972 consitution). In practice they meant nothing for the Sinhalese save rhetoric. Even Buddha Sasana is manipulated and misused by the so called “Sinhalese governments”. These governments have never genuinely and sincerely supported the Sinhalese. We only need to see what has happened to Sinhalese language and Buddha Sasana in the post-independence Sri Lanka.

If the post independence government were in fact looking after the Sinhalese interests, the Sinhalese should have been better off economically, socially and culturally and politically. Sri Lanka would have been like Malaysia where Sinhalese would have become the Bhumiputras. Kandy, Anuradhapura and other cities that were the ancient political and religious centers of the Sinhalese-Buddhits would have been exclusively Sinhalese-Buddhist cities. Tamils and Muslims would not be serving in the Cabinet. Tamils and Muslims would not have received the political bargaining power they now enjoy. Tamils and Muslims would have been reduced to the second class citizens. If the post independence government have been Sinhalese governments, the name of the country would have changed to “Sihaladesa”. This is no at all different to Norwegians having Norway, French having France and Germans having Germany!

Myth: UNP and SLFP are Sinhalese parities

Reality: UNP and SLFP are multi ethnic parties.

The Tamil ethnonationalist claim that UNP and SLFP (and its coalitions, SLFP has never formed a government alone) the two main political parties of the country are Sinhalese political parities is absolute parse. They are multi ethnic in its membership, organization, management and policies One only need to examine the Parliamentary and Provincial and Local Government candidate lists of the two political parties, and the composition of the cabinet to ascertain the multi ethnic constitution of these parities. Very often the two parties have nominated minority members for electorates where the Sinhalese are the majority.

At the height of Tamil ethnonationalism in Sri Lanka the PA’s national list included Vartharajah Perumal. He is not just a Tamil, but a Tamil who declared UDI for Eelam. His name should really be in list of criminals who violated the constitution. The election results (when they were conducted fair and just) are also a good indicator of the minority support for the two main parties even in the areas where they are majorities. However, the Tamil political parties have been exclusively Tamil while the SLMC exclusively Muslim. The minority political parties have never been interested in national issues but concentrated only on issues and fantasies confined to themselves. Thus, they have been reduced to inward looking ethnic political parties.

The birth of Sihala Urumaya, a new political party, is the best evidence to prove that UNP and SLFP are not Sinhalese political parties. The main reasons for the emergence of Sihala Urumaya, according to party documents is the failure of the post independence governments formed alternatively by the two main political parties to address the grievances of the Sinhalese. Even yet, Sihala Urumaya is not an exclusively Sinhala political party. While protecting the birth rights of the Sinhalese as the creators of the Sinhala civilization which is the foundation of this country, Sihala Urumaya will ensure and safeguard all the democratic legal rights of all of its citizens irrespective of their ethnicity.

Myth: Tamils are discriminated against by the Sinhalese

Reality: Tamils are treated as a different ethnic group.

Discrimination (practice) arises from prejudice (attitude) in the society. Prejudice here is the thinking that one’s ethnicity is superior and the others are inferior. If Tamils are discriminated, then the Sinhalese must be thinking of themselves as superior in ethnic and cultural terms to the Tamils. But this is not true. In the 19th and early 20th century there were some attempts to identify Sinhalese with Aryans and thus to consider them superior to the Tamils. However, this view has died a natural death. Sinhalese only consider the Tamils as a different ethnic group having a different yet related culture. In fact in cultural terms there are more commonalities between the two groups than one would first assume. However, the expedient and extremist Tamil political leaders and the Tamil terrorists have deliberately omitted any reference to these commonalities. Further, a group of foreign “scholars’ led by a cult of anthropologists who manipulate and interpret the Sinhalese culture still tries to portray them as intolerant villains and demons. It is only the academics who propagate this ideology for their advantage while it is not so at all at the ground level’

Sinhalese and Tamils go to same restaurants, buses, toilets and live in the same streets and villages and work in the same offices. They even go to the same Kovils. They intermarry. However, Tamils have separate Tamil medium schools and universities exclusively for the Tamils. Same is true for the Muslims. Thus, if at all, it is positive discrimination. Hindu Gods are housed in Buddhist temples and homes. Sinhalese attend Hindu festivals and prey to Hindu Gods. In fact the integration is so much that ordinary Sinhalese would not know that many of the Gods they prey to are from the Hindu pantheon.

Until recently, when the Tamils came to be identified as extremists, terrorists and murderers, thanks to LTTE and other such terrorist movements, Tamil were seen as industrious and hardworking people worth emulating. Given the corrupt nature of the UNP and PA politicians and the government, Prabhakaran is admired for his commitment to the cause, although the cause is rejected.

Myth: Sinhalese areas are unsafe for the Tamils

Reality: Sinhalese areas are the safest areas for Tamils while LTTE controlled areas are the most unsafe and the Sinhalese areas have become unsafe for the Sinhalese because of LTTE Terrorism.

The following points will prove this. The percentage of Tamils living in Sinhalese majority areas (outside Jaffna and Batticaloa Districts) have steadily increased during the post independence era. . While the extremists Tamils ethnonationalists and LTTE terrorists paint a picture of Sinhala majority areas as being unsafe for Tamils, the ordinary and not so ordinary Tamils have, in large numbers, thought otherwised and moved into and live in Sinhala majority areas. The percentage of Tamils living among the Sinhalese today is higher than ever in the history of this country. The self-evident answers to the following questions will help us understand the real picture.

1. Where do the TULF MPs live?
2. Where do the TELO MPs live?
3 Where do the EPDP MPs live?
4. Where does the Mayor of Jaffna Live?
5. Why are Tamils fleeing the LTTE controlled areas?
6. Why are Tamils moving into the army controlled areas?
7. Has the number of Tamils business establishment in Sinhalese majority areas increased over the years? 8. Has there been an increase in the number of Tamils business establishment in Sinhalese majority areas since 1980 when the LTTE terrorism intensified .
9. Has there been a mass exodus of Tamils from the Sinhala majority areas into the LTTE controlled areas.

While the Sinhala majority areas are becoming the safest place for Tamils in Sri Lanka, the LTTE controlled areas are becoming the most dangerous place for Tamils for the following reasons.

1. LTTE has used the Tamils as human shields in its guerilla attacks against the armed forces of Sri Lanka. 2. The ordinary Tamils have been used as a part of their guerrilla strategy. For example, the Tamils were forced out their homes and made refugees when the army decided to flush Jaffna peninsula of the LTTE terrorists. 3. LTTE terrorists extort money from Tamils at will.
3. LTTE terrorists torture and kill Tamil who opposes them.
4. LTTE terrorists forcibly recruit young boys and girls as soldiers without their or their parents consent and get them killed in the battle front.
5. LTTE terrorists brainwash the children into hate-souls and suicides.
6. LTTE terrorists create a war culture among the young who have come to despise the value of centuries long Hindu culture which taught them good and bad.

As a result of the LTTE terrorism in the LTTE controlled areas, the standard of living of the Jaffna Tamils (remember that LTTE has ethnically cleansed the peninsula of people of other ethnic group) has been reduced to levels before Independence. The people in these areas have been victimized by a war culture, fear, poorest standard of living, authoritarianism, unmarried women, limbless men, dead people by the liberators who were once adorned by these people as “boys”.

Myth: Sinhalese are extremists and intolerant of minorities

Reality: Sinhalese are the most accommodating ethnic group while the LTTE Terrorists and the racist Tamil ethnonationalists are the extremists intolerant of others.

Extremism and intolerance if exists must be reflected in reality. It does in Sri Lanka. There is one ethnic group, which gave rise to a terrorist group. The shortsighted and extremist politicians of this ethnic group nurtured the creators of this terrorist group. The politicians and the people of this ethnic group secretly endorsed terrorism and assassinations directed against the Sinhalese and the government. No one ever wanted to speak against this terrorist group first by their own choice and later because they had no choice. As pointed out, now it has become the most ruthless terrorist movement in the world. This ethnic group is Tamils in Sri Lanka.

The ordinary Tamils were brainwashed and pushed towards extremism first by the Tamil ethnonationalist political leaders and then by the LTTE terrorists. Not so ordinary Tamils who live in western capitals have intellectualized this extremism and intolerance. And now the Tamils find themselves unable to transcend their extremism and intolerance as they are under the LTTE terrorists guns. The TULF whose original leadership was completely wiped out by the LTTE finds itself incapable of even naming LTTE as responsible for these assassinations. Instead they lobby the British Government against the possible ban of LTTE in Great Britain. Such is the extremism and intolerance and hypocrisy of Tamil political parties.

The following ground realities will indicate clearly as to who are extreme and intolerant. 1. No Sinhalese live in LTTE controlled areas. 2. The number of Tamils living in Sinhalese areas have increased over the years 3. Over 400 Sinhalese- Buddhist monks have been killed by the Tamil terrorists. 4. No Tamils were harmed even when the two most sacred Buddhist shrines in the country, namely the Sri Maha Bodi and Sri Dalada Maligawa was attacked and bombed by the Tamil terrorists. 5. The number of Sinhalese infants killed by the LTTE is over 300 6. The number of innocent Sinhalese killed by the LTTE is over 4000 7. The number of times the Tamil political parties condemned LTTE for these attacks is zero. Instead they continue to blame the “Sinhalese government”.

Myth: Tamils want a just and fair solution.
Reality: Tamils want to break Sri Lanka into two pieces and establish a separate state.

There are several problems with the assumptions and the strategies of the Tamil political parties which have now gone into oblivion for all intent and purpose and the LTTE terrorism has taken over that role of course through terror. The assumption that Tamils aren’t a minority, that by being a statistical minority they have become second class citizens; that Sinhalese are extremists and intolerant; that livening under “Sinhalese” governments is a disgrace; “Sri Lanka” army is occupying “Tamil homeland”; and that LTTE is engaged in a liberation struggle are completely wrong. The Tamil demands have always emanated not from any ground realities but through the above wrong assumptions. In a recent confrontation this came out very clearly when TULF agreed that it is not Tamil grievances but Tamil aspirations that is central to their struggle.

We too sympathize with the Tamil aspiration of not having a state of their own. But it was not the fault of the Sinhalese Tamils do deserve a state going by the “right to self-determination”. Tamils should have got their separte state in Tamil Nadu (Madras) which was their cultural and political hearth. It was denied to the Tamils first by the British and then by the Ghandhi-Nehru rule in India. Thus if the Tamils in Sri Lanka want to fulfill the aspiration of the greater Tamil diaspora, they should negotiate it with the British. Perhaps the British may be kind enough to pay for the political crime committed as imperialists by curving out a part of England as Tamil homeland. Or the Sri Lankan Tamils should negotiate with India and forced India to declare Tamil Nadu free and sovereign.

Here in Sri Lanka, operating on wrong assumptions Tamils political leaders have been unreasonable, unjust and unfair from early days. First, they opposed the introduction of universal adult franchise, then demanded 50/50 distribution in the Parliament between Sinhalese and minorities. They opposed the national flag and some Tamils in Jaffna raised the nandhi flag on the Independence day. They defaced the letter Sri in the number plates arguing that it is domination by the Sinhalese. The Tamils parities competed with each other at the election campaigns in Tamil areas to vilify the Sinhalese as the worst enemy of Tamils. Then Tamil agued for a Federal State where Northern and Eastern Provinces will be exclusively Tamil and other areas will be for all ethnic groups including the Tamils. Then from the mid 1970s they wanted a separate state. The Tamil political strategy which was mostly peaceful up to 1970s changed it course and took a terrorist turn directed against the Sinhalese masses, Sri Lankan government and also those who oppose the Tamil terrorist agenda. Tamils themselves were not spared if they cross path with the terrorists.

We wish that Tamil aspirations will be realized one day in Tamil Nadu where it should have happened if not for the imperialists from the West and then the East. If terrorism is fair and just, if killing is fair and just, if sacrilege is fair and just, if suicide is fair and just, if extortion is fair and just, if using innocent people as human shields is fair and just, if the use of child soldiers is fair and just, then Tamil politics is fair and just.

Myth: Tamil political parties are moderate
Reality: Tamil Political parties are opportunistic and irresponsible and extremist.

The behavior of Tamil political parties remind me of the “crab’s advise”. While being extreme and dangerous in rhetoric against the Sinhalese and the Sri Lanka government, the Illankai Tamil Arasu Kadchi, TULF and other political parities were calling themselves as moderates. In fact it was the ITAK and its successor TULF’s rhetoric and its agitations in Jaffna that misled the youth eventually to take arms. TULF kept a blind eye for its youth wing becoming a terrorist organization. The initial killings by these youth were hailed as heroic acts of Tamils in its goal of achieving a separate state. The extreme rhetoric of some TULF leaders and their next of kin treated the Sinhalese with such a contempt (e.g. Sinhalese’s skin to make shoes for Tamils) that Tamil youth considered Sinhalese to be the reason for all ills.

TULF’s language not only in Jaffna but even in the Parliament is filled with extremism and irresponsibility. When the TULF failed to deliver its utopian promise of a separate state, the task was then taken over by the Tamil youth turned terrorists. Inability to see the reality is a pathological problem of the Tamil political parties. Even when theirown founders and other leading figures are being assassinated, TULF fails to condemn the LTTE. Even when the young Tamil children are conscripted into terrorist armies, the TULF fails to condemn the LTTE. Even when the Tamil people are used as human shield in its guerrilla attacks TULF fails to condemn LTTE. Even when the LTTE extort money from the innocent civilians TULF fails to condemn LTTE. Even when the moderate Tamils begin to speak their mind, they were brutally gunned down, TULF fails to condemn LTTE. Even when the most sacred places of the Sinhalese-Buddhist among whom the live are bombed, TULF fails to condemn LTTE. Even when the Buddhist monks are assassinated in hundreds TULF fails to condemn LTTE. When infants, young boys and girls, women and elederly are brutally murdered in hundreds TULF fails to condemn LTTE. The behaviour of other Tamil political parties are not different. Tamil political parties which are condemned to follow extremism in rhetoric cannot condemn LTTE which puts these rhetoric into practice.

The latest manifestation of extremism of Tamil political parties became evident when they lobbied the British government not to ban LTTE from the British soil. Certainly, we are at a loss to see how moderate they are. Tamil people are still waiting for a moderate political party, which sees the reality not fantasy.

There are several myth on LTTE as well. The chief among them are

LTTE is the sole representative of Tamils
LTTE are Freedom Fighters
LTTE fight only against the Sri Lankan armed forces
LTTE is an organization with high morals
LTTE respects war conventions and does not involve children
LTTE is only a passive reaction to Sinhalese discrimination

The various terrorist activities of the LTTE in Sri Lanka and abroad are more than enough to dispel the above myths (An analysis of the LTTE’s long list of terror is a subject matter of a much lengthier article. It is well known that the LTTE is one of the most ruthless, senseless terrorist organizations in the world today. One may argue that it LTTE is a liberation army and only the Sri Lankan government and the Sinhalese are treating it as a terrorist organization. No and far from it. The United States has banned LTTE as a terrorist organization. United Kingdom is in the process of declaring so. The leader of LTTE, Prabhakaran is one of the most wanted terrorists in the world according to Interpol. This terrorist is according to latest available reports is responsible for over 90,000 deaths.

Conclusion

It is a fact that there is no ethnic problem in Sri Lanka and that the problem is simply LTTE terrorism directed against the Sinhalese and the Sri Lankan state and also anyone including Tamils who opposes it . It is a myth that there is a Tamil homeland in Sri Lanka and that the creation of a separate state of eelam will solve the problems of the Tamil whatever they are. We are yet to identify factually, not mythically the real problems of the Tamils that are different from those of the Sinhalese. Thus the first step in finding a solution to the problem in Sri Lanka is simply to understand what the problem is not mythically but factually. Thus it is very important for all to dispel the myths about Tamil ethnonationalism and LTTE. The half informed foreign journalists, international peace makers who are more concerned about making a name than solving a problem, so called Tamil intellectual who are trying to pay for the guilt of living a luxurious life in the west, the misguided Tamil politicians who are not willing to accept that Tamils are a minority in Sri Lanka and that there is no Tamil homeland here, the LTTE who thrives upon an utopia of a separate state of eelam and the ordinary Tamils who have suffred the most from the wrong rhetoric, policies and strategies of Tamil political parties and the terrorist movements must dispel the myths and must accept the reality.

The biggest challenge for Sri Lanka today is nothing but to protect the state, the Sinhalese, other minorities and the Tamils themselves from LTTE terrorism. It is the constitutional duty of the state to do so. It is the moral duty of the Sinhalese as creators and founders of this country to do so. It is the politically correct thing for the Tamils of all walks of life to help the Sinhalese and the Sri Lankan state to bring an end to LTTE terrorism before the LTTE will bring an end to the Tamils of Sri Lanka. Time is still with good people.

Patriot – What is the point in stating something that has already been stated several times.

Why is it that you do not want to aknowledge the fact that Fonseka is being framed because of his caste? How is it that somebody who dedicated his life to establish the Sinhalese supremacy in your island can suddenly become a traitor?

Is Sri Lanka just for the Govigamas? Does this mean that now Karawe’s are joining the list of outsiders?

@Patriot,
What abt the other myths in your country?

Myths : 1. Srilankan soldiers kidnapped and raped Tamil women
2. Srilankan govt burned Tamil library in Jaffna

So, there are so many myths in the island is’n't it Patriot. Now it is time for you to prove that all the above are myths. Please do your home work now Patriot.

There’s no point in talking with someone who refers to “things that have already been stated several times” and they themselves start repeating “the same things that have already been stated several times”. To make a long story short, your big lies to fool the west to get your so called refugee status and then make a nuisance of yourselves to them eventually is not working for you guys either now because the people of those countries now realize who you guys actually are. And certainly we are not bothered about them either. You don’t acknowledge the barbaric atrocities that criminal prabhakaran and his band of chickens have done to all people of Sri Lanka whether they are Sinhalese, Tamils, Muslims or whatever. So be it – we have managed to wipe out that crap from the face of our country and it will never happen again. I do not wish to continue this conversation with a couple of terrorist lovers like you guys but let me tell you something, if you guys are thinking of continuing to terrorize us once again, be prepared to meet your beloved ugly thalaivar sooner than you wished!

@Patriot

It is very unfortunate that true winner of presidential election – Mr. Fonseka is behind the bar and war monger and cold blood murderer Rajapakse is ruling the jungle rule in Sri Lanka. It is the right time for all peace loving Tamils and Singhalese joined together to fight for their free two states – Sri Lanka and Tamil Eelam.

Two state solution is the perfect as the case of Palestine and Israel.

Karawe community in Sri Lanka should uprise against the barbaric Govigamas. Long live Fonseka and Karawe

The author must be WickremasingHAM. !!!!! All Snhala people have been warned abput this last ditch effort by you losers to create prejudice amongst the Sinhalese. Will not work. We have a great time laughing at you bloody losers.

Patriot, The obejecive of my higlighting the treachery of the Govigama is not to split the Sinhalese. But to make you realize that its easy to call somebody a traitor or outsider. This majoritarian viewpoint and “we are the only original inhabitants” mentality will only marginalize you exponentially. Today Sri Lanka has antogonized the Tamils. If this mentality continues, it wont take much time for the Karawe’s and other Dravidian Castes among the Sinhalese to feel marginalized also. Bottom line is – instead of shouting against the Tamils – you should work with moderate Sinhalese towards the release of Fonseka and reconciliation – even if it means giving what they ask.

As I said before – it won’t work. Don’t worry about Sarath Fonseka or the Govigama or any gama, Just worry about yourselves now – because your hosts are now getting tired of you fellows and its just a matter of time until al you fellows get deported. Then you can all go back to your homeland in Tamil Nadu and start your third phase of Tamil Homeland there.

>Then you can all go back to your homeland in Tamil Nadu

Where will you go Patriot?. Wont we all have the same problem when we all meet in Africa – from where (presumably) the Human journey started ? Or do you have a point in time in history where we should all stay put?

@ pat RIOT

Good work Mr. Roit.

You singhalese has started to accept that you ‘people’ rioters, rioting against justice and truth.

Good that you accept the truth by naming yourself as riots, murderers, homicides, genocides etc.
Killing innocent Tamils for past 60 years you Sinhalese deserve such names and the World you welcome that.

By the way how much did Sinhala government pay you (dole) for ur hard work from the Taxes paid by our Labour brothers working hard in the Tea estates.

Your economy stands in the hard of Tamil Labors in the Tea estate.

Your economy stands in the hard work of Tamil Labors in the Tea estate.

Who is this idiot “shotgun Murugan”? are you a relative of “jackpot jango”? or “fucked up Prabha? shotgun – my ass.

It is very clear …you LTTE diaspora not happy about Sri Lanka …so find some other country.

well said Ravi …these tamils are a bloody joke …. good entertainment value

How touchy the recent commentators are *smile* For a blog, if they can become so aggressive, think of the fate of people who were fighting for life & pride!

These sour losers will go on and on with their Eelam dream – and a dream it will always be as long as the Sri Lankan people stand united and fight against such future terrorist elements. They are nothing but “all fart no shit”!

@Ravi

You are right. We are not happy with Soori Lanka, Due to that reason only we are seeking a separate Democratic peace loving Tamil Eelam.

Here is what DBS Jeyaraj has to say about the Karawe discrimination: The Rajapakse regime has commenced working the “caste” campaign within Army rank and file in a bid to dent and damage the solidarity shown by soldiers to Fonseka. There are also rumours that some officers from the Karawe caste group are being treated shabbily..

Patriot – Unless you work towards bringing the Karawe’s back into your fold (by releasing Fonseka), the next time around you fight the Tamils (or India – as per Fonseka’s prediction), there will be no good fighters in your Army. You should know that most fierce soldiers of your Army are Karawe and Salagama (also of South Indian origin). So i suggest you forget the Diaspora and focus on Karawes to stay upto your repute.

Why are these other tamil guys talking on behalf of all Tamils from Sri Lanka? I am an up country Tamil and I know how the Jaffna tamils treat us. Now they are trying to get us to support them in their dirty senseless war. their useless war cost lives from all sides. I live happily in Colombo among all races and I dont have any problem except with the Jaffna fellows who think that the vellalas are the superior tamils in the whole world. they treat us and even the Batti tamils like shit wherever they see us. Thank goodness this thing is over now and these fellows can shout at the top of their voices from wherever they are but please dont come back to our country.

WELL SAID MURUGESU. I AGREE BUSINESS IN SRI LANKA IS BOOMING. MANY PEOPLE IN THE WEST WHO DIDN’T KNOW OF SRI LANKA ARE NOW AWARE OF THE COUNTRY THANKS TO THESE IDIOTS WHO ARE ADVERTISING IT FREE FOR US AND THEY ARE AWARE WHAT KIND OF BUSINESS WE DO AS WELL!!!!! BUSINESS PEOPLE DON’T CARE WHAT YOU IDIOTS ARE TALKING ABOUT BECAUSE THEY ALREADY KNOW WHO YOU ARE BECAUSE YOUR GUYS HAVE BEEN CAUSING TROUBLE EVERYWHERE. IN USA YOUR IDIOTS WHO ARE PRETENDING TO BE REFUGEES HAVE GOT A REALLY BAD REPUTATION AS THIEVES, THUGS AND DRUGGIES AND THE PEOPLE OF THESE COUNTRIES HATE YOU AND ARE DEMANDING THAT YOU ALL BE SENT BACK. BUT PLEASE DONT COME BACK – STAY THERE AND ENJOY YOUR BULLSHIT AT THE COST OF THE TAX PAYERS THERE.

stop the genocide in central india – stop operation green hunt –

Dear Sinhalese Brothers and Sisters,

let us also conduct similar protest to save Sri Lanka from the Mahinda & Co jungle rule.

Well said Bikhu Bhamse and John Paul. We are experiencing the same problem with these Hindu Terrorists in Sri Lanka where they think they are (their) god’s creation for mankind. They ethnic cleanse any area where they live and kill people from any other community and for the past several decades even took arms and became one of the most ruthless terrorists groups in the world. Fortunately Sri Lanka elected a brave President who declared enough is enough and tool the war to the terrorists’ own backyard and completely wiped out this bad rubbish from the face of Sri Lanka. These Hindu terrorists were responsible for the killing of several Buddhist people and bombed their temples and also were responsible for the killing of a large number of Catholic pilgrims to the holy church of Madhu which is located in the formerly terrorist held areas. Thank goodness these bastards are now gone for ever.

Folks supporting SriLankan President – no one in India is saying we dont have problems. Of course, we have problems as any other country in the world has. But certainly not as bad as the state of your country, where your own citizens in hundreds of thousands are in camps waiting for water, food & sanitation.

When the government sponsors genocide in your state on your own people, certainly the products which come out of it must have been packed & washed in blood! Come on guys, we all know that.

@Patriot,

Terrorists are defeated according to you. But what about the terrorists leader Rajapakshe. He is still alive and killing thousands and terrorising both singalease and Tamils. When are you going to wipe him from the face of srilanka? Until blood thirsty Rajapakshe brothers are alive, terrorism will always be there.

Guys,

This is great. Bring moderate sinhalese also in the protest .

@kumaran

no prob …find your peelam within TAMIL NADU …because you won’t EVER get it in Sri Lanka.

hey what happened to my request for more tamil women without panties …come on be a sport ..don’t delete my comments ..only supporting your fantastic intellecutal plan …come on ladies help this cause …. take off your panties

you guys are brilliant …never heard of any other group ..getting women to take off panties ..wow ..come on ladies show your fanny and support this cause

I am not even Sri-Lankan, but when I read this blog, it is clear to me that patriot, greg et al are very seriously mentally deluded.

The war in Sri-Lanka is over according to both the president of that country and the UN. So why on earth are you shouting and yelling at Sri-Lankan refugees for… .

Patriot, I think you do not understand common sense. I have been to the tip of South India during my travels. You can see the island of Sri-Lanka from there with all its beautiful trees. Are you telling me that the South Indians, who themselves are accepted in the books of history as one of the most ancient peoples in asia, did not during ancient times think about taking a boat to visit this island. That is like saying that we are not the original inhabitants of the isle of mann etc..

You must be some form of pleb if you cannot fathom this common sense. It is clear to me and many others, I am sure, that Sri-Lanka was inhabited by two different communities. Two different languages, two different cultures and two different pre-dominate religions. Think of it this way, from a change of variable position, if South India was in fact buddist and closely related to the majority population of Sri-Lanka wouldn’t you then say that your majority community in Sri-Lanka is in fact the original inhabitants because of your close proximity and relation to the southern Indian mainland..

Ah-alas, this is not the case though.

That is the real truth. I agree that it should be one united island, but if the people do not agree, then they have every right to go their seperate ways. It is that simple.

Sri-Lanka has and will always remain divided. Just because a few extremist racist bigot individuals like you say it is a united.

Which political parties in the world is named after their respective countries. We do not have a party called the Great British Labour Party, or the United States Democratic party or the United States National Party. Only when you go to Sri-Lanka do you see political parties named after the communities they represent.

Tamil diaspora protests against defeat of terrorists. Tamil diaspora urging boycott of Sri Lankan products. Tamil diaspora gets their own in UN to pressurize action against Sri Lanka for defeat of terrorists. Great!!! But what’s happening. Tamil so-called refugees are now being turned back from the West and Australia because they are untrustworthy. Secretary of State of US congratulates Sri Lankan president for his successive polls wins. Sri Lankan stock market on the rise. More investments pouring in. Jaffana being developed and Tamils now living there sans fear from terrorists. You Tamil diaspora living in those Western countries can stand on your bloody heads and scream but nothing will happen. Your hosts are getting tired of you guys and are learning the true colors of you Tamil diaspora. Its only a matter of time until they start throwing you out of their country – and then you will start crying “genocide” against them too. Sri Lanka is prospering and will continue to do so while you guys are protesting and blocking roads there and dancing the “kavadi”! Please continue doing so because we find you guys amusing and entertaining.

Patriot the fact that you are on here posting shows that the war is not really over for you. If everything is so awsome for you in SLofShit, why is a sinhala fuckwit like you still posting. Could it be because you know that the war IS NOT over, and this guilty complex you have for what you have done to the Tamils has transformed into fear of “oh no the Tamils could rise again”. The more mundane Sinhala faggots like you who post, the more you inspire Tamils to rise.

Stupid Sinhala rat. Thanks to you people Tamils still have a movement. There would never have been a Tamil Tiger movement if not for the Sinhala. Sinhala fuckwits’ economy has been depressed so badly that SinhaLanka is the lowest of all asian countries on the economic index. So your happy that your stock market has risen for a day, when you Sinhala motherjords are still poor. Don’t worry Tamils in the west are prospering and looking for round two.

What’s wrong Sinhala banjord, are you still unemployed in some small shanty village with a shitty lower tier university education spending your time browsing these forums with your 1/dollar a day payment. Keep increasing your jobless to join an army that you cannot pay for. You’re on emergency loans, keep borrowing more debt on the debt you already owe to the world. You think the Chinese and the Indians want to visit your stupid shitty lands and pay whiteman money for your services. Your having a laugh banjord…

Thank you Sinhala Patriot Prick, for reminding me why I hate you Sinhalese so much. No peace for us – no peace for you.

Miggy? What the fuck’s that? Or is it Piggy? Hey, Punde piggy. Thalaivar’s mother turned away from Tamil Nadu – the birth place and the real homeland of all Tamils. A poor sick old woman who was only looking for treatment for her ailments. Of all people – the hero of all Tamils, Karunanidhi – is now trying to wash his hands off this incident. The Tamils world over will now demonstrate in front of all the Indian embassies – especially in Canada, Australia, Norway and UK. Or will they?????? You guys have no principles even about yourselves. What a pathetic lot – I wouldn’t even wish for even an enemy to be reborn as a Tamil. You guys are the hell on Earth – the cesspit of all humankind. That’s the reason why you guys are the best in the business of toilet cleaning too. Liberation Maggots of Tamil Peelam! Now go and Dance the kavadi with the toliet cleaning brushes sticking out of your asses you punde idiot. The super hero Thalaivar who promised never to surrender to the enemy – eventually decides to surrender like a mouse – after all his child soldiers had been sacrificed. What a pathetic bastard. What a scared fat little coward shitting in his own tiger striped pants. And after he was killed, there was no brains to be found in his vacuum head! But then all Tamils are like that – empty headed monkeys.

Federal solution based on shared sovereignty in Sri Lanka was the highlight of the TNA manifesto released Friday which is kinda sorta Totally going back on Tamil Eelam. While irreversibly committing on a federal solution, the mani-fest-oooh is ambiguous on the nature of the sovereignty of Eezham Tamils and their right to self determination, which is indirectly admitting that TNA and Eelamistan for all intents and purposes are truly FOOKED.

Sections on the TNA stand expressed in the election mani-fest-oooh on finding a political solution and matters of immediate concern follow: Our Stand On The Political Solution

The Tamil People are a distinct nationality above all other beings (apart from our glorious white masters, of course) and have inhabited the island of Sri Lanka since 100000000000000000000 B.C.

The contiguous preponderantly Tamil Speaking Northern and Eastern Provinces are the historical habitation of the Tamil Peoples™ (which supported by Khazillions of archaeological sites and ”Yalpanam Vaipomalai” which was upon the request of our Dutch White Masters for whom we Vellalars happily plucked tobacco).
The Tamil People are entitled to the right of self-determination® (and NOT Eelamistan since of 19/05/2009)
Please we humbly BEG of you to re-merge Northern and Eastern provinces like Rajiv the Homophobic Gandhi did (who we the Tamilians totally did not kill).

Direct foreign investment in the North and East should be facilitated so that our Commode Scrubbing diasspora would be able directly invest in Tamil Homoland and other employment opportunities such as Toilet cleaning, gas pumping, dish washing and shoe shining should be created for our youth.
Avenues for tertiary education will also be set up so that Tamils yet again can be over-represented based on rigged exam results.

Matters Of Immediate Concern For Our People:
There must be meaningful de-militarization in the return to the pre-war situation as it existed in 1983 by the removal of armed forces, military apparatuses and High Security Zones from the Northern and Eastern Provinces so that our sole representatives™ the Liberation Tigers of Tamil only Eelam regroup and reform and conduct fresh totally righteous attacks on the Sinhala only Army. And only Tamil People who have been displaced in the North and East due to the conflict must be speedily resettled in their original places; housing provided, their livelihoods restored and their dignity respected, but not the Sinhaloids or the Muslimians.

Compensation must also be paid only for Tamils for the loss of lives, to those who have been maimed and to those who have suffered losses as a result of the military campaign, but not the Sinhaloids or the Muslimians.

Sole representatives™ who are detained without charges must be released promptly and a general amnesty should be granted to the others, as an initial step towards negotiating with terrorists freedom fighters.
Commode scrubbers who fled the country over the last 30 years in search of greener pastures in the lands of our white masters also must be permitted to return to their homes, block highways, jump in rivers, self-BBQ and go on Big McHunger strikes™.

A comprehensive programme for the resettlement of the Eelamish People and their rehabilitation and development of the North and East including the creation of employment opportunities such as commode scrubbing for the youth will be undertaken with the active participation of the Eelamish Diasspora and the Eelam-friendly International Community.

We will emphasize the need to establish a ”SPECIAL” commission.
We will take necessary steps to raise the standard of living of fishing communities in honor of Desiya Thalaivar who is from the superior Karaivar (Fishmen) Caste.

We will do everything in our power to secure employment opportunities to unemployed toilet cleaners and shoe shiners.

Prof. Meapaiyah Pakatakaram Ponnarajah aka. MPP

I didn’t even bother reading that. If the Sinhala can’t write himself – he must copy of some other Sinhala who can write.

Always the way. Bye Bye Sinhala fuckwit. Everyday I think of what it is to be a Tamil and one day your going to see that reality.

HERE IS A VERY DISTURBING NEWS ITEM PUBLISHED IN INDIA :

Panaji (IANS): Police are keeping an eye on Sri Lankan Tamils possibly working on fishing trawlers and in the mushrooming hotel industry in coastal Goa after the union home ministry warned of infiltration by surviving cadres of the decimated Tamil Tigers.

“The home ministry circular was forwarded to us by the state home department Monday. The instructions are to keep a vigil on ghettos where Tamil-speaking persons tend to stay,” a police official told IANS.“We have also been asked to keep an eye on fishing trawler hubs and source information on any possible LTTE sympathisers working in the hotel line (industry),” he said.

The official added that immigration records were also being scanned to see if any Sri Lankan nationals had landed in Goain recent times. Superintendent of Police Omprakash Kurtadkar, who is in charge of Goa Police’s foreigner’s branch, has issued a circular to all police stations and immigration points to look out and maintain surveillance for suspicious Tamil Tiger sympathisers.

“A lot of Sri Lankan Tamils are found indulging in illegal activities. Efforts should be made to locate them,” the circular reads. Some years ago, the state police and Indian customs officials had seized a global positioning system (GPS) equipped fishing trawler registered in Sri Lanka which had strayed into India’s territorial waters.

Fearing infiltration by surviving cadres of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) – after the rebels were decimated last year – the Indian home ministry has ordered all states to look out for them. – (IANS)

THIS IS VERY UNFAIR. WHY DOES THE INDIAN GOVERNMENT TREAT US THIS WAY. AFTER THE WAY THEY TREATED US IN THE PAST AND ACCOMMODATED US AND SUPPORTED OUR CAUSE, WHY ARE THEY ALSO TURNING THEIR BACKS ON US,

I URGE ALL OUR THAMIL BROTHERS AND SISTERS IN INDIA TO STAGE PROTESTS AGAINST THE INDIAN GOVERNMENT AND ALL THE STATE GOVERNMENTS FOR TREATING US THIS WAY. WE MUST ALSO STAGE PROTESTS OUTSIDE ALL INDIAN EMBASSIES ALL OVER THE WORLD – ESPECIALLY IN CANADA, UK, AUSTRALIA AND NORWAY AGAINST THIS TYPE OF CRUEL TREATMENT OF OUR THAMIL PEOPLE.

LONG LIVE THAMIL EELAM!
