M.I.A Tells of Sri Lanka Genocide to U S- World Fans -( 1 of 2 )

[skeen1995]

@sudesh215 You're probably Sinhalese so your ignorance is understandable. I am a Tamil so the fact that you said that offends me, which was probably its purpose yet I can only feel pity for someone like you who can only make blind sighted comments that no one else will understand because of your poor english. I don't hate Sinhalese people, only the Sinhalese government which is killing my people like Hitler did to the jewish people in World War 2.

[wompasdub]

She's so hot lol

[Sarj22]

its kinda funny seeing sinhalese people here... talking shit... so typical...

[musicalMaYa953]

We won the war. what now b****

[Silwathpora26]

MIA you are a good singer. But your dad administrated all 10 LTTE cargo ships.

[SwankyBerry]

I respect Maya so much. I cannot STAND when people put her down because her music is different. She's pretty much the only mainstream artist who still has substance in their music!

[breaks0]

Half the morons who put her down on yt, or in general for that matter, do so b/c of her politics. She's radical (at least she likes to use messages, icons and lyrics that wink at that), so it comes w/the territory. What happened to the Tamil population, especially in the last month of the war, was truly barbaric. And given her family history, it shouldn't be surprising that and liberation struggles in general are key to her music.

[hen750rr]

stfu with ur political shit u fucking stuck up faggots. justshut up and comment some positive shit. stop talking about terrorists shit.

[sonofthedestroyer]

We must not worry about LTTE or armed rebellion. There is a powerful tamil global diaspora and it is their duty to expose the Sri Lankan Genocide to the world in a political manner.

Sri Lanka as a nation is in the process of paying a very heavy price for supporting this genocide. They face a falling economy and a complete fascist military regime where freedom of expression has gone out of the window completely.

Maybe then all the ignoramuses who supported the genocide will realise the truth

[LvDaMuzic]

Sinhalese have no class. we ourselves were one of the victims of sinhalese. Our property in colombo was taken over by one of the riches in srilanka - The Ethirisinha group. These are the riches use sinhala nationalism to drive out tamil businesses and tamil people altogather. We know what it mean by dealing with Sinhalese first hand. This government is sheer brutal and this problem will not be solved by the end of LTTE.

[Leosuk]

Sri Lankan State Terrorism killed over 20,000 civilians in the last four days of the war. They killed 35,000 babies and woman to capture 7,000 tiger soldiers. Other countries that sponsor state terrorism like Cuba, Iran, China, and Russia blocked the rest of the world from charging SL Gov with war crimes. This doesnt mean its the end of it. Rajapacsa brothers will pay. There is no other choice but to take up arms again.

[kandy1boy]

It is so obvious that GOSL has been involved in acts of genocide and that it is systemic in the island. Ban of UN described the human tragedy suffered by the Tamils as the worst witnessed in any conflict anywhere in this world. HRC showed due process in Iraq and Kosovo. GOSL/LTTE War Crime allegations have to be investigated. Given the evidence, HRC has no option but to accede to an INDEPENDENT investigation. After 61 yrs of unrest it's clear - we need a two-state solution for peace-Kosovo.

[MarineCore88]

Government of sri lanka denies acess to no fire zone to journalists! GoSL fears journalists are going to "hurt the army". LMFAO!

[TKG2288]

Many Sinhalese would not want to split the island for the Tamils. BUT what caused the Tamils to want a separate home in the first place ?well, isn't it because the Sinhalese were given more rights than the Tamils?

[TKG2288]

it's a fact that they were unrighteous toward the Tamils, which resulted in having peaceful protest to change the laws for equality. but they beat us and chased us away, even went to the limits to killing us, and destroying everything that was owned by Tamils. after many more time of doing that, Tamils were fed up with the government that they took up arms, Which after all was the aftermath of the treatment from the majority , Government!This is purely logical in Fact.

[solomonXR1]

it was a war designed to bring down sri lanka`s economy disguised as a war against genocide.

[STiTharindu]

Name a few pls

[ARkingRA]

All you Haters, please take few minutes and read this report from the BBC;

Search for "Eyewitness 'I thought, I won't survive'" on google or on the BBC website

** Pls Read the whole thing **

[senthilvpc]

"I am not worried about the opinion of the Tamil people... now we cannot think of them, not about their lives or their opinion... the more you put pressure in the north, the happier the Sinhala people will be here... Really if I starve the Tamils out, the Sinhala people will be happy."

J.R.Jayawardene, Former President of Sri Lanka - Daily Telegraph, 11th July 1983

Given the above

Tamil Eeelam is the only way out

[babygirlcamy]

She's getting awareness!! jeeze people..

I'm tamil okey.. so i know everythinggg.. And trust me.. this is what tamil people are trying to do right now.. to get awareness.. and kugan04: Of course she's going to have to mention the genocide..You complete fool.

By the way...

PROTEST OUT SIDE OF PARLIAMENT EVERYDAY !! SAVE THE TAMILS!!!

[ma2maniac]

she is correct. and she represents the minority that is being killed. seriusly. people come here searching for her name in these videos to put sinhalese comments.

[JLRappa]

She is amazing

[kugan04]

proud that she is a tamil coz she talks about genocide.

[505alicious]

WoW. Talk about information suppressed....if you look at the playlists on this subject the majority of the videos are NO LONGER AVAILABLE. Yikes!

[atd87atd]

more than 2000 Tamil ppl hav been killed in 3 months. independent journalist are banned from the country.

[Tamilwillwin]

Singalese brothers...If you are realy human and that you realy think your gvt cares of tamils and that they are just against LTTE- Can you explain me why tamils get abducted everywhere in the country , why you prevent Aids to tamils , why no journalist , UN is allowed to go and see how well you care of tamils , and finaly why even singalese journalist get killed when they criticize the gvt..be true and get rid of rasists leaders in power if you want to save SL...

[charithpeter85]

I agree with you in some cases brother. But the thing is the pain we have for more than 30 years terrorism and the hate for LTTE is bigger than those anything. If you were a Sinhalese you may see and feel the pain. As a Sri Lankan I honestly say that I feel really sorry about the Tamils who get hurt, displaced and killed no matter who do it. If I were a Tamil I will feel the pain as you have.

Let me correct you here. Dnt ask wether we are human or not. Of cause we are human. Jst like all of you.

[Djkbrox]

Dude so tell me why ur so called LTTE are taking innocent tamils as a Human Shield in puthukudirippu and attaking our brave soilders among them????????????

And that cowardly asshole Prabakharan is hiding among them?????

There is no abduction of tamils in Sri lanka

I can assure that

Many tamil friends are living happily with us in colombo

They don't want this terrorism either

Of couz there was a genocide by LTTE killing tamil politions who stang up against them

[B12N]

Quote "There is no abduction of tamils in Sri lanka"

You shoud have saved this comment for today( 1 apr 2009 ). That would ve been a nice April fool.

[trusingam]

i think you are a very educated man!! But you are talking so much shit???

Do you really know, what is happening in the Tamil Area??? So many Tamil People are dying!! Not the LTTE is killing the people. The Singhalese Government is killing these people systematicly!! You must open you eyes. I am also a Singhalese and cant believe, what the Government is doing!! That is not right! But the MAIN PROBLEM IS INDIA NOT THE SINGHALESE! They are only slaves and doing what the indians want to!

[19618893]

India's back yard is now tainted with Tamils blood that will not easily dry.... I believe in Karma......Cycle will turn......They will pay the price one day for what they did in Sri Lanka

They call it the largest democracy, but used tamil youths to make problem in Sri Lanka.

[1982mockingbird1982]

@Djkbrox Columbo is a well developed area which has many Sinhalese civilians and is in plain sight of the International community. So ofcourse the governement wont shell bomb that area. But even publications in Jaffna such Uthayan have been targeted and many of their reporters have been threatened and killed. Some of the parties taking credit for this campaign of fear and intimidation claim to represent the interests of Tamils, but its obvious they are on the governement payroll.

[jinz0001]

im half sinhala, but well said bro...u spoke politely and graciously and wasn't rude at all by using offensive fowl words like "u sinhala bastards" etc. that rly annoys me wen tamil ppl say that coz not all sinhalas hate tamils, i myself have many tamil friends and are very good people, i feel very sorry 4 the innocent civilians out der may they b peace and every1 unites as 1

[rockinpoison89]

she's tamil ?

[djpeekay25]

I love how everyone is jumping on the bandwagon. Civilians have been dying from both sides for over 25 years. My cousin's uncle was the first documented death in the war, he was the Mayor of Jaffna and a Tamil killed by LTTE. LTTE committed genocide against the Sinhalese and Muslims in the east and the north, but there were no cries of genocide. Over 15000 Sinhalese people were killed by GoSL during the 1970s and 80s JVP time.

[karvmaga]

Thanks MIA..

[ShazamVEE]

m.night shaymalan sucks though loll.

and why would you honestly fully believe anything on wikipedia? it's a site that can be altered and edited by like anyone.

[Defecaloesiophobic]

When her dad is friends with the LTTE, would you really expect her to say anything different?

Check out the Wikipedia post on MIA and her dad (Arul Pragasum)

[STVR1]

There is a humanitarian crisis in Sri Lanka, where the Tamil minority in the islands north and east are facing annihilation at the hands of the Sinhalese-dominated government.

[candymanTD]

Actually M. Night Shyamalan is also part tamil o.O in western media...So she isnt really the only tamil person.

[CoreyRobertson2]

It's horrible what is happening, but we need to take care of our own problems (America) at this point. Humanitarian aid to the world needs to be put on the backburner while the fiscal crisis at home is being mulled. How can our government be expected to help fix the World's problems without having our domestic issues resolved? Is our government even responsible enough to be able to?

[ShutTheFuckUp0809]

shes beautiful...

[vjeyas]

We all love you MIA proud of u

[andyfedel]

how could anyone even begin to try and defend or justify this mass murder of the tamil people. if you are sinhalese you have to stop this genocide immedeately. the world is watching this disgraceful murder of a people and you are being judged by the entire world. if you are a member of sinhalese military it is your honor bound duty as a soldier to disobey any order that is contributing to this genocide.find similarities that bind all people as human beings in this world and respect all life.

[TAMILPENN]

Go M.I.A! Your the BEST!

[0627641]

it's really good that we have her..maybe her fans that are not tamil will try to understand.

[FreeTamilsInCeylon]

we do understand what's going on in Ceylon but our governments play dirty tricks over the backs of the tamils who are being denied from talking with independent human rights organizations or free media like bbc, cnn or al jazeerha.

I support your struggle and your demanding for a safe and free Eelam!

60 years of sinhalese crimes against your people are still proving that including the last SLA shelling of the hospital in PTK with clusterbombs!

[arshini01]

Maya's boyfriend Benjamin Brewer, singer  is not that bad looking. I am glad that she is supporting the tamils, she sang abt the war, but thats not enuf, well all our people around the world are doing all they can, we'll see whats gona happen!!! someone gota put an end to this!!!

[themanwhosings]

WOW - Intelligent, compassionate and a hard worker. If only more people in influential positions would do like her, and put others first.

She built a school in Africa for the poor. But the world leaders themselves could learn a thing or two from her example.

Go MIA do it.

[artsyfashion]

She is gorgeous, her and her belly.

I love her music and Slumdog Millionaire was amazing.

I respect her opinion about Tamils.

[arshini01]

her other songs were ok too!!

[ranjistudent]

MIA i am proud of you as a tamil canadian.  Go tamil eelam citizen !

[battlenoise]

Thankyou so very very much for adding this. I didn't think I could become even more of a fan than i was but this has compounded all that i believed about her. Brave,passionate,talented,funn­y,strong,beautiful and so articulate. Truly an individual trying to make a difference and give hope to the down-trodden the world over. What a woman! Feel so priviledged to be a fan and have access to her wonderful music.

[pundipundi]
