Forget prabhakaran and all i am talking of the common tamilians there, HINDUS...we never stick for each other when gujarat happened the whole of middle east was there to help them or at least voice an opinion but in our case we support the lankan govt gimme a break these congress is the roota cause of all problems today from kasmir in north, bengal in east and down south. i agree their means to get freedom or autonomy is not right but thats coz they have no support, we should screw over ta lankans diplomatically i mean after all they are just an island so close to such a big giant...
Sri Lanka would have been peaceful if LTTE had accepted Rajiv-Jayawardane agreement. But Prabakaran wants to rule Eelam as a dictator. He first killed his own brothers then he started attacking IPKF. Rajiv also did a blunder by not sending Madras regiment that knows Tamil. As IPKF consists of mostly north Indians, they treated Tamils as enemies and even indulged in rape,killing, etc. This infuriated Sri Lankan Tamils and breed more militants. Now the problem is more complex. Both sides have to come to a common understanding and make the region peaceful. Fighting will never bring peace rather make the lives of people more horrible.

Ltter had accepted the agreement read before making half baked comments. In fact Pirabaharan made a public speech in Jaffna stating that this this agreement tis the starting point. th problem started when many anti Tamil Indian diplomats and Colombo and Delhi plotted with the Sinhalas and stabbed and betratyed the Tamils. Havnet you reada famous Indian generals book regarding how Dixit asked the Indian army to kill Pirabaharn when he was to attend the meeting. Th enaive and blundering Rajiv and these anti Tamils were th cause of all this problems and because of this India and the EElam Tamils lost a golden opportunity. The crafty and shrews J R Jeyawardene and the Sinhalese had the last laugh. Th ecountry was divided in to Tamil and Sinhlal Kingdoms throughout its history. It was th eBritish who united it in 1833. It was never a disaster when it was divided. Has only become a disasiter after the British united it as like the typical arrogant white colonialist. They divind people who were united and unite people who are better of divided ( eg Africa) they never take in to consideration of the traditional and hisotric ethnic hatred and rivalry between various people. Whem stranga colonial power or a dictator rules them . things are peaceful on the surface egformer Sovet Union Yugoslavia but when this crumbles thes com eon to the surface and unless all people are gratned equal rights it broods disaster. Look at Yugoslavia. The British when they left did not provide adequate

protction for th eminority Tamils. they did not bother or they wanted these states to fail. therfore the Gencidal Sinhalas have since indepedence have use thier majority to deny the Tamils thier just rights. Each succesive Sinhala governmet had become worse. TO the Sinhalas the handing over of the EElam Tamils to them on a platter by th BRitish was a dream come true. They ahd always hated them and eyed these ancient Tamil lands but were unabel to anything for the past 2500 years. If the current situaltion oif the Tamil is not a disaster then wht else is. So you want them to be killed ethnically cleansed denied the use of their language culture etc. iN a united Sri lanka . Who tore the 1987 Indo Sri lankan agreement not Pirabaharan but the Sri Lankan goverment in 2006. The Portuguese and the Duthch colonial powers realised that uniting the Sinhalas and Tamils iunder their control , would have been a disater, as they were awaree of the ancient enemity between these two people. The Bristish were not aware of it or did not care or did this deliverately to rule the country. If two people cannot get toghether and the country is in ruins it is a disaster and it is better to seperate. You talk of India and Pakistan. BUthave you ever thought that if there was still a large and restive minority Muslim population ( around 30%) in undivided India, on its western eastern northern and throughout India, not loyal to India , what the consequenses woul dhave been for modern India.
Their name should be liberation cowards of tamil eelam. They r the ones who mastered the 'art' of brainwashing kids and women to suicide bombings. This current PM is the weakest PM , he should , for once show some balls and take a hard stand against these LCTE terrorists.

You are th4 moron and I think you are a Sinhala can always tell when a Sinhala comes here and the way they leave messages, even when they take North Indian or some strange nick name, The Tamils lost theoir independence to the European colonnial powers the same time as the Sinhala s lost theirs . That was not a thousand years ago. The Tamil Kingdonof Jaffna and the Sinhala Kingsom of Kotte was captured aorudn 1620 by the Portuguese. The Sinhala kingdom of Kandy and the independent Tamil Vanni was captures by the British in 1815 and 1820 respectively . It was the British who united the Tamil and Sinhala speking parts of the country in 1833 as one country, this was done for thier administrative convenniance. Prior to that there was not country called Sri Lanka it was always divided on liguistic and ethnic lines as seperate kingdoms. The Prtuguese and the Dutch also recognised the seperate identies of these two people and also were aware of the mutual enemity and rivalry of these two people for the past 2500 years and ruled the Sinhala and Tamil speaking portions in the island which was under their control as seperate colonies. Dont try to spread lies and misinformation. You are typical Sinhala. People can check these facts on the internet.

U moron , when did IPKF loot and rape your so called innocent tigers?? They were of course a killing force to finish off these scumbags sorry excuse of terroists cowards. And those tams who r saying that LCTE is justified for their terror activities cos they ruled northen SriLanka 1000 yrs ago, so what? By your logic every muslim terrorist is also justified in their activities against hindus cos they ruled India for 800 yrs. By your logic even PPl from Turkey should start a terror campaign against India cos Qutub-u-din Aiybak built Qutub minar 7-800 yrs ago???
these guys should be killed at point blank range. and anyone supporting these idiots(the tams) must be booked under pota. but forst, the stupid upa with its stupid black goggles wearing coalition partner must be booted out of power

ANd what do you propose for the IPKF soldiers and the Indian Diplomats who advised the blundering Rajiv Ghandhi. and caused the death of thousands of innocent Tamils in Sri Lanka. And what does the mirror propose for the genocidal Sri Lankan government. I presume he sits and applauds them bombing and shelling Tamil civilians. Killing them ethnically cleansing them making them refugees in thoer own countries and overseas. these are acts of non violence and peace . We do not want brainles anti Tamils like you here. We can read between the lines how much you hate all Tamilians ( both Indian and Sri Lankans)
Does not make it the truth. There was a Jaffna Kingdom .. Sri Lankan Tamils are there for more than two thousand year at least .. In Sangam Literature itself there is mention of Karikala Chola having bases there.
Saivite Nayanmars, 1500 years ago have sung hymns in praise of Tamil Shiva Temples in Thiruketheeswaram and Thirukoneswaram.
There is absolutely no doubt they have right to their lands if equality is not given.
CHeck Pandyan and Chola Kingdom Maps, North East of Sri Lanka is ruled by Tamil Chieftains only.

HI Jackson you are right. 1. Can you please name any single incident that LTTE committed on foreign soil in the past 10 years. 2. They are freedom fighters 3. They have army of their own 4. They have conventional military capabilities 5. They are fighting for the cause of the oppressed minority Tamils 6. Had LTTE not been there, Singala governments would have killed every Tamils... It is fact.
are you sure Mr. whoever you are? when the central government is taking the support of the supporters of the very killers of our most beloved prime minister Rajiv Gandhi,who was killed by the LTTE, are you sure that you are watching LTTE, that too after your meeting with the supporters of LTTE? You are bullshi**ing.

Mr.Chavda, your sentiments are understandable. But most of the readers of this forum support the supporters of the killer of the father of the nation, bapu. What is your take on that ?

You are right Mr.Chawda.This Moily in charge of TN Congress has justified the eulogizing of Killer Tamilselvan by the CM of TN.If this is the way the congi's are handling the matter,there is a doubt about their intentions.
