Please , that one with the magic wand step forward and be our leader.

Freedom of expression is prevalent here. The moderator seems good unlike Mahindra Rajapaksha and the LTTE!

Dr. Kathir

These commentators go on as if there was a choice between establishing Tamil Eelam through force and accepting a federal solution within a united Sri Lanka;

In my view there is no choice because choice does not exist. The Tamil militant groups collectively and the LTTE single – handedly have destroyed all such possibilities.

The reality today is that India and the International Community will not tolerate a Tamil state in the Island. Continuing to fight therefore is to take on not only Sri Lanka but the entire world. Already the world is backing the Colombo regime in many ways.

The world is only against a separate state but it is for Tamil equality in the Island. If the LTTE declares a moratorium on the fighting and opts for a federal solution even as a tactic it will have the world on its side. Also the hardline Rajapakse regime will be isolated.

But the LTTE instead of pursuing a rational course follows a suicidal path. Its supporters are cut off from reality while commenting here.

These are symptoms of irrational logic. We have to be rational.

This is a paramount, well-understood by all truth that ‘Medamulana’ Mahinda uses the APRC as a cosmetic exercise to hoodwink the IC in part, and con the world in whole.

He will continue with his myopic ‘chinthana’ without hesistance and thereby forclose any chance of a viable and acceptable option emerging from it.

Unless otherwise the LTTE outsmart him militarily, there is no silver lining in gloomy srilankan political sky.

May The Almighty Bless the Tamils!

Dr. A.R.M.Imtiyaz : This statement is strong in its message and accurate in its agendas.

My point is here is that the birth of Tamil Tiger movement has roots in Sri Lanka ’s history. In my understanding, they are the byproduct of five decades’ old failed politics and policies of the Sinhalese political class. There was not an overnight decision among the ordinary Tamils to approve the agendas of the Tamil Tigers: the failure of Sri Lankan polity to meet the demands of the Tamil moderates was a key foundation for the origin of the Tamil extremism in Sri Lanka . Instead of listening to the Tamil leaders and accommodating their reasonable demands, the Sinhalese ruling leaders of the time assaulted and stoned the Tamils and their leaders, and even hired the Sinhalese to become butchers to kill innocent Tamils and moderate leaders.

Tamil academics : Strengthen the Hands of LTTE

the international community for acting not only without a sense of morality but also without a sense of reality.

Defying the ban of LTTE, and other restrictions placed on the freedom of expression of the Tamils living in EEC nations, Britain, USA, and Canada, Tamils everywhere must strengthen the hands of the LTTE that the demonic powers that seek to destroy the Tamil and decimate the Tamil population in Tamil Eelam. We must act in unison to save the Tamil race and nation from extinction.

Our poor sisters and brothers – now working as slaves under the poorest conditions in the inhospitable Middle East with their families here broken – will return to build a new Sri Lanka where their labour will be accepted with honour and diignity.

The Sinhalese can again go to Nagadipa and the rest of North-East without hesitation and Tamils can settle and move around freely anywhere in the South without the indignity of insults in Check-points, brutal incarceration in Police Stations, abductions; where uniformed men now serving with fear in the North-East can return to their homes and families and more productive employment sans their uniforms. Where Sri Lanka will have a more friendly and meaningful National Flag and a National Anthem sung in 3 languages. It will be Sri Lanka that is the object of all simple, peace and innocent Sinhalese, Tamils, Muslims and others in this lovely land.
