Genocide in Sri Lanka? Yes indeed, but...

Extremely good article.
I hope the so-called neutral people of the world also read this and get themselves educated.

Chanaka, you made a lot of good points too. Specially this, "Tamils in north have all the rights to defend there selves from LTTE and as government of Sri Lanka is responsible to protect them, People in Noth are not stakes of some people in world or LTTE to fulfil there own belly."

People of Sri Lanka have given a good answer to the world by the Provincial Elections held this week. A landslide victory for President Rajapaksa's party. Well, hope the world realizes that the government acts in the interest of the people of this country, by looking at this win. Unless of course they accuse this 20 million people, that's us, of fully supporting these so-called "crimes" committed by the SLA and the Government as per let known by the "always truthful" and "full of virtue" LTTE.

The 2001 Census shows the Sri Lankan Tamil population in the Colombo Municipal Council limits as 29.7%, almost one third the population of the capital city.

Well. it show's that from Ramayana age the percentage of Tamil people in Sri lankla is getting reduced by you (non sense Chauvinise people - I don't mention about all Sinhalese people).

Once it (Ilankai) was land of tamils. But you people only foreigners. Even you can't digest to be under tamil name of Ilankai. Why did you change the same to Sri lanka. That is where your blood thursty GoSL should be understood.

Are you thinking you are the honest people in the world and after death you will be sitting in front of Budda in first bench.

Thamizheezha Viduthalai Puligal Vazhga! Vazhga!! Vazhga!!!

words fail me. guys, he's a one off..

I think where the word genocide comes into it is that, if the situation was reversed, i.e. if its 200,000 singhalese stuck in the warzone, being killed and suffering major injuries everyday with no food or medical  supplies, the government would put a little more effort into saving innocent lives instead of lying about the number of people dying. There would be an uproar. But no, its only the tamils dying isn't it. Thats where racism comes into it. Did Mahinda do a remembrance speech for all those who died recently in his independent day speech? NO. He didn't want to admit to the world that people were dying. Do you wonder why Tamils feel they are being targeted... Also, I must say, for most of the sinhala people in here, its all about winning the war against the ltte and putting an end to the ltte. What about what happens to the civilians while this process is being achieved. Is a military victory that important at the expense of hundreds of thousands of lives?? At the end of the day, the ltte and the government are not protecting/considering human lives and are rejecting the pleas of the UN and ICRC. Do you still feel its an internal matter? This is why the international community must intervene and do SOMETHING

Yes indeed, Tianna. The word GENOCIDE evokes such memories. Kent/Dollar farm massacre, Kattankudy Mosque massacre, Arantalawa Bhikku massacre, Anuradhapura Sri Maha Bodhi massacre and the massacre of unarmed policemen in the East is to name a few.

It evokes memories of the following also from the past 3 years alone...

Allaipiddy massacre 2006, Chencholai bombing 2006, 2006 Trincomalee massacre of NGO workers, Pesalai church attack 2006, Vankalai massacre 2006, Madhu school bus bombing 2008 and now over 2000 dead in recent months.

Hey agent

It is better, you can write your comments to a neanderthal man. not to me.

You please recommend to remove your israeli goverment. and you (jews living in israel) can become a citizen of palestine.

What a dual standard you are following. your eyes become blind when it comes over my comment on israel.

I still hope you are gaining a lot of money through selling arms to Sinhalese army.

what is the loss you are going to get if Srilankan army kills Tamil people or even when LTTE kills SLA soldier. as long as war continues you are going to be richer. you may give some fraction of amount to Hiranya too.

Let us come to Tamil (Indian) fishermen's case. Does SLA army has any right to shoot at them even though they enters in srilankan area( I mean in sea). Even Pakistan army is very humanitarian in handling Indian fishermen.

What does our Indian goverment do when it happens. It's like you. that is why tamils in india supporting LTTE rather than GoSL. If this trend continues one day will come when a question will rise for seperate Tamil nation in India.

I am not only critisizing Indian national congress. I hate even BJP( rest of inda) who is keeping silent on this and other hindi or north indian parties who are all keeping silent.

You know tamilnadu is number one state to supply releif materials to earthquake affected gujarat or Storm affected Orissa. They(Tamils) are true citizen of India rather than others. when it comes about mentality of other states we have no other go than a seperate Tamil nation.

Let come to the main issue here. Terrorism is an outcome the government's mistakes. There should be a cause for a terrorism to originate. Tamil people were taken out from the basic rights and were reduced to animals. I know this because I have visited these places. To tell you the truth the LTTE or the Srilankan government are both killin tamils. But since the government were the cause of theis root problem is Srilanka and killed far to many tamils that the population have drastically been reduced in the past few months, this has cased an uproar among the dispora of tamils around the world. LTTE killed the tamils they hated and those who were against the ideologies imposed by the LTTE but ironically supported the same cause against the government. When your entire family is being wiped out by the Sri lankan army its not like that individual is going to accept the fact and stay clam, the individual would rather join the group in this case LTTE and try to kill the army. Its so sad because they don't support LTTE but because they killed their family they are forced to join arms with them. Same with Sri lankan army who come from poor families to earn a bit of money to save their family fight againest their own brothers to earn money. Sri lankan people should realize its government and its political leaders are corrupt. The foreign aid money sent to Srilanka during tsunami entirly went to Rajapaksha building his underground home. It didn't reach the Singhalese or the tamil.

hey Isuru Thilakarathne could you check out this lame story
"Shame: Government of Sri Lanka uses Child Soldiers"
by some idiot called kottiyanimal and correct that please?

Hi Ezhumalai (or Elumalai..don't worry, I can pronounce "zha")

Please read my reply inline

"It is better, you can write your comments to a neanderthal man. not to me."

Now..now..now... I did not call you a Neanderthal man...! Take it easy. Since you have mentioned that old name of <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 />Sri Lanka and that it should be changed to the old name,I just wondered that why not we change it back to the pre-historic name itself. I merely asked you because you seem to know that also. The 5023 BC sensus shows that there were 59.321 % Neanderthal, 27.393% Australopithecus and the rest were Tamils in this Island, what is presently called Sri Lanka. Yeah, you are correct. There were no Sinhala people at that time.

"You please recommend to remove your israeli goverment. and you (jews living in israel) can become a citizen of palestine."

Come oooon, Ezhumalai. I AM the Israeli government. Why should I remove my own puppet government? I am the god almighty who manipulate, make and break governments all over the world. I am the kingmaker who controls the happening around the word. That is including the Hamas and Israel. I will tell you once secret. Don't pass it to anyone. Have you read about the underground tunnels in Gazza? Through them my secret organization supply crude rockets to Hamas to fire at Israel. It is just that whenever I feel like making huge profits, I start a conflict somewhere in the world so that I can supply arms.

"What a dual standard you are following. your eyes become blind when it comes over my comment on israel."

Translation please....!

"I still hope you are gaining a lot of money through selling arms to Sinhalese army.

About arms selling, please read my reply above. Your guess is correct. I owe Hiranya huge amount of money (running into millions of dollars - dallars for you). But hey, I don't have any problem dealing with LTTE too. If you would like to do a lil' part time business, we can get into a deal. I know..I know, that you have close tie-ups with "Birathar Pirapaharan". Please let me know if you are interested. I used to do some business with "Birathar" before, but my broker at that time, unfortunately stepped on a land mine planted by LTTE. May his soul rest in peace.

"Let us come to Tamil (Indian) fishermen's case. Does SLA army has any right to shoot at them even though they enters in srilankan area( I mean in sea). Even Pakistan army is very humanitarian in handling Indian fishermen."

Not SLA army. Just SLA.

Now, coming back to orbit, I can arrange a small trip for you in a fishing boat from Gujarat. Destination is Karachi of Pakistan. You will have no papers. You can experience the humanitarian handling of Pakistan navy and cost guard. Please write  your experience in NP once – rather if – you come back.

BTW, it is either navy or cost guard protects Pakistan waters. That is what Musharaf told me last time (he is a close friend). But I don’t know whether the new one, Zardari , handed that duty over to their Army. Let me check. If that is the case, I assure you that the kind of humanitarian treatment you are going to receive will be beyond all your expectation. Are you game?

"What does our Indian goverment do when it happens. It's like you. that is why tamils in india supporting LTTE rather than GoSL. If this trend continues one day will come when a question will rise for seperate Tamil nation in India.

You ain't get it, did you? That is historical, sweetheart. Sinhalese and White North Indian Aryans are related. Actually Sinhalese are Aryans too ( I thank you a million for educating me and the other ignorant NP members who write here).  So when LTTE get the support in terms of money and materials from various sympathizers from within tamilnadu and the Diaspora, how do you expect White North Indian Aryans keep quite? See, I am telling you one more top secret. They, the Hindi and Sanskrit (Indi and Chamachkritam for you) speakers approached me secretly. Lo..! Now I supply latest weapons and technology to Sri Lankan army in a big way.

  "You know tamilnadu is number one state to supply releif materials to earthquake affected gujarat or Storm affected Orissa. They(Tamils) are true citizen of India rather than others. when it comes about mentality of other states we have no other go than a seperate Tamil nation."

Happy Birth Day...
