Without India there would be no LTTE. Prabharkaran’s corpse would be 15 years into feeding the earthworms. Its Praba’s Stupidity and Hubris that thought he could “Teach India A Lesson” for trying to make peace with Sri lanka. Face it Tamil Eelam has as much chance of Materializing as ‘Narnia’.

As you are also aware, tamils know the India’s interference and involvement and TNA or rahter TULF’s active role in this regard. But according to the present situation, Tamils in Sri Lanka who were a successful society in Sri Lanka with all the acheivements, now have gone down or going down in Sri Lanka. Specially in education, health, industries in Sri Lanka ( specially in North and East). In addition the able people are leaving Sri lanka or living with alternatives in foreign country and on the other hand youths are being killed in order to stop the growth of tamils. On the other hand lack of facilities like health, food also tamil people die. In these circumstances, in the event if this issue continues for another 5 -10 years isn’t it a prediction that we will be wash off from our homeland in the normal course? As far as India is concerned may be India is proceeeding on the basis that some relief should be granted to tamils in Sri Lanka but that will not be a sufficient pressure while India also having some economical interest in Sri Lanka. Therfore isn’t better to accellerate the destinations?

Thanks

Our problem is that we only look upto India for everything, but the Sinhala regime is using other powers to get the help they needed.

Learn from the enemy.

Some TNA MPs have even recently said that the LTTE defeated the 4th largest army in the world. I am immensely irritated and annoyed by this empty rhetoric. India never lost the war in Sri Lanka; Indian army simply withdrew when the GOSL asked them to do so. India never unleashed her full military might during the conflict with the LTTE.

Amirthalingam & Rajiv Ghandhi were the architects of the Indo Sri Lanka Accord and they made a supreme sacrifice defending their beliefs. Some irresesponsible elements took their lives away but their vision and belief to bring peace to the Tamil homeland in NE still live on.

Any settlement that is somewhat similar to ISA only can bring peace in the NE. The CFA of 2002 failed because: SLAF was on the street of NE; there was no peace neutral keeping force; unhindered access to arms by the LTTE. That’s why I feel the ISA gave us the most favourable opportunity to win our legitimate rights. The ISA failed because of the barmy strategy of the LTTE leadership.

Mr Sri Kanka, please ask your colleagues stop repeating the stupid story of the 4th largest army……

o There is widespread racism and state terror that has been directed at the Tamil people since Ceylon gained independence from Britain in 1948.
o The Sinhalese came to Sri Lanka about 2500 years back and claim to be Aryan race, which is a bunch of crap
o Tamils have been living in Sri Lanka for more than 30,000 years and called it Ellam.
o In 1769 the British arrived and absorber the Island of Ceylon into its huge empire.
o Before Portugese, Dutch & British came, there were three Kingdoms in Ceylon, Tamil kingdoms in North and East, one Sinhalese kingdom in Hill Country and one in Costal areas of Ceylon.
o British centralised all powers in Capital Colombo for administrative purpose , unified the whole country by amalgamating three Kingdoms into one Country and brought large amount of Tamil Labours from India to Build Tea estates and these Tamils built the national economy and earn highest amount Foreign exchange today ( US $ 900 Millon per year )
o When British left in 1947, they handed over centralised power in Colombo to Sinhalese and the first Sinhalese majority parliament stripped, (which consisted of Racist like DS Senanayaka, SWRD Bandaranayaka & JR Jeyawardena,) one million tea estate Tamils in the central hill country of their citizenship and right to vote, because they voted against the ruling party and happened to be Tamils.
o The third parliament of Ceylon in 1n 1956, under the leadership of SWRD Bandaranayaka and with the support of UNP, made Sinhalese the only official language and as a consequence large number of Tamils lost their job opportunities. LSSP leader Colvin R De Silva warned one language, two countries, two languages, one country.
o During nineteen seventies the Government of Srimao Bandaranayaka, with the support of Badudeen Mohammed, NM Perera, Peter Kennaman & Colvin R De Silva implemented the standardisation policy where Tamil student have to get much more marks to enter university, irrespective of their merit, and abolished the Constitution Drafted by Last British Governor and deleted the protection given to Tamils under that Constitution and these act angered moderate Tamil Politicians and young Tamil students and provided a strong motivation to start armed struggle, another foolish act of Sindhalese
o Major Sinhalese political parties and Majority of the Buddhist Monks are totally racist and anti Tamil.
o In July 1983 the Sinhalese thugs aided, supported and encouraged by Sinhalese politicians, Buddhist monks and Sinhalese army and police killed thousands of Innocent Tamils, burned down their houses, business premises, medical clinics and lawyers offices and ganged raped Tamils girls and this is known as ‘July Holocaust’ or ‘Black July’.
o The Tamil armed struggle gathered momentum after this foolish act of Sinhalese and resulted in the development of present day Tamil Army known as ‘Tamils Tigers’

o Some feel that creation of a Tamil Federal state or a Scottish style Tamil Parliament will bring peace; this solution will not work, because this type of political system to work, the central government should be trust worthy and Tamils have no trust in Sinhalese central government or Sinhalese politicians. They cannot be trusted, because Sri Lankan army, police and state machinery is one hundred percent Sinhalese.
o The only option for Tamils to fight Sinhalese state terrorism is to create their own state which existed before Portugese, Dutch and British came to Colonise Ceylon ‘Sri Lanka.
o WITH OUT A TAMIL ARMY TAMILS HAVE NOTHING ‘POLITICAL POWER GROWS OUT OF BARREL OF GUN – ARMY IS HE CHIFE COMPONENT OF STATE POWER’
o The ‘Tigers’ control their own territory and run it like a totalitarian dictatorship now, after winning an independent state for Tamils, they have to grant democracy to all people, otherwise Tamil people will revolt
o Tamil Army is a militant army with a cause, to disarm them is impossible and no army can fight them forever.
o The ‘war on terror after 9/11′ has been used by Sri Lankan States (past & present) to suppress Tamils and opposition descendants and get plenty of foreign aid from US, Canada, Australia, Pakistan, China and Israel. Tamils and their Tamil Army are not terrorist, but freedom fighters. The Sinhalese and International media describes the entire Tamil people as terrorist and remain silent about Sri Lanka state terrorism for the benefit of their Geopolitical agendas.
o Regardless of whether the war in Sri Lanka is recognized as a war of national liberation in the exercise of the right to self-determination or a civil war, support for the LTTE from the Tamil people cannot be criminalise. The Tamil people, whether in Sri Lanka or elsewhere, have the right to freedom of opinion and belief, the right to freedom of expression and the right to support political parties or groups of their own choosing.
o FIGHTING FOR SURVIVAL IS A FUNDAMENTAL HUMAN RIGHT

NB:

have few things to improve your statement

1.in 1970 not only racial merit system started but also Tamils already selected were sent back.is not it?
2. in 1972 traitor colvin in addition removed secular nature of the constitution and made it Buddhistic.
3.before 83 since 57 there were several pograms against Tamils
4, in the chauvinist sinhala state not only the armed forces even the civil administration is sinhala dominated. tamil usage is only when fight is made.
5lanka,elam all refer to sinhala. hence prearyan Dravidian name must be something else. may be a word starting from ‘am’ or’ ka’
5.do not gve up your rights in the south.

Wickrama bahu KARUNARATNA

1959 – Bandaranaike assassinated by a Bhuddist monk. Succeeded by widow, Srimavo, who continues nationalisation programme.

1965 – Opposition United National Party wins elections and attempts to reverse nationalisation measures.

1970 – Srimavo Bandaranaike returns to power and extends nationalisation programme.

Ethnic tensions

1971 – Sinhalese Marxist uprising led by students and activists.

1972 – Ceylon changes its name to Sri Lanka and Buddhism given primary place as country’s religion, further antagonising Tamil minority.

The above listed events occurred prior to LTTE’s arrival. The singala nation, some superior so called Tamil ideologists and UN could not solve the problem since 1948 until 1972 through peace full negotiation now the situation has been escalated up to this point. Compare to LTTE, The government of Sri Lanka, India and UN has all the power to solve the issue, but those people are more interested in killing people using their power. Mainly western world need places where they can experiment their new weapons. Now Sri Lankan internal conflict is more suitable place for that. Each and every Tamils are very much interested in attacking LTTE rather than get together and find the freedom. The interesting part that Tamils who resides abroad are forgetting what they had experience in Sri Lanka since 1948. If you look at some reports from some tamil super humans , one would wonder tamils had happy life style in Sri Lanka until the LTTE’s arrival. LTTE is the only group created all these problem.

On those days after 1987 have all these leaders stood with the India. How many times J.N.Dixit and Madam Puri requested the Tamils (including the LTTE) to be patient in spite of the loss of 13 LTTE cadres. What about the attempt on Rajiv Gandhi’s live by a Naval rating and what about the subsequent contacts of LTTE with R.Premadasa? Finally can’t Sri Kantha realize that the LTTE not only violated the laws of India when assassinating Rajiv Gandhi but also the laws of war which protect civilians. It is the hardening attitude of the LTTE rather I would say its ego that led to the present turmoil in the country. Today neither Sri Lanka nor LTTE has won the battle excepting that they have left a legacy of brutality. It is India which has won the battle. In this present complex situation the UN too is concerned with the LTTE leadership pertaining to its atrocities. If at all it can only interfere with the indirect blessings of India.

It is incorrect to state that Sinhala political parties have not yet understood the cause of the 25 year long conflict when, in fact, they are reluctant to allocate powers to the Tamils. Ranil Wickremasinghe should be given an opportunity. The fatal consequences of this cruel war that has led to a change of heart, is now seen among the Sinhalese.

The declaration of security zones are signs of reluctance of recognizing the existence of the democratic rights of the Tamils which are known to India and the Western powers. The reluctance of India to give an interview to the TNA leaders points out that the interpretation of authentic representative is not confined only to the LTTE. It is a sign that India is not accepting the LTTE leadership.
