RE:RE:RE:Sri Lanka is not India's pariah

their revenge on these Unfortunate Sri Lankan Tamils who have noting to with their predicament in Tamil Nadu in the 60s and 70s. These original Tamils largely of Vellalar descent are also suffering from the same source like the SOuth Indian Tamil Brahmins. The DMK is l;argely made up of these Tamil Nayakas ( originaating from the Vijaya nagar empire) they made teh Vellalar pwerless at teh beginning f their rule by taking away their land. The other elite caste amongst the old Tamils the Brahmins were not touched much at that time as the were mainly the temples teaching or in similar professions. Really not much of a danger to these new elite. However during the British rule the Brahmins got educated and became powerful Iam not defendng the dsicriminatory caste practices of Brahminism etc . But these Brahmins became a threat to these new Tamielite. So through their newly formed Dmk which was largely made up of Tamilians of Telugu heritage they started to turn th elargely poor and opressed Tamil masses aginst the Tamil Brahmins, sone of teh discriminatory practices practised by the Tamil Brahmins againstthe lower non Brahmin caste helped this. The irony is many of the Sinhla aristoracy which are spearheading the Tamil Genocide are also of this Nayaka heritage, They are the Tamil Nayakas of the VIjayanagar empire, The Bandaranaikes Ratwates,Jayawardenes, Wickremesinhes. SO the Tamil BRahmins are ironically supporting the same people who screwed them to Kill the Eela, Tamils
