RE:RE:Sock it to them

Mr. Seth,
I agree with your point of view but I believe that you need to do a better job of convincing others that Tamils of LTTE are really fighting for the just cause. Being Gujarati, I have no business of getting involved with Tamils vs. Sinhala issue. However, I had eye opening experience when I visited Sri Lanka in 70's. Based on my experience I can sat that it is a religeous issue and until there is harmony between priests of both religion, nothing is going to be resolved. That means that Hindu Shankaracharyas need to accept Budhism and Budhist need to be convinced that there will not be a repeat of what happened to Budhism in India - LTTE controlled areas. Just a short history - Shankaracharyas were responsible for opposing Budhist and embracing Muslims to defeat and eliminate Budhisnm from India. That is what Sinhala people are afraid of.
