SL must answer to the killing of thousands of Tamils, if not now, in the future. India may not be an "asian super power" in two years, already its torn in north east and kashmir, china and pakistan will collapse one day. we will move inch by inch, but will get there
The only genocide happened in SL against were by your forefathers and their tamil henchmen! The only ethnic cleansing happened in Sl was by your pussy cats against the muslims and sinhalese who were living in North of Sl before 1980!
hey fuckvit, how about real history instead of heresay and romanticism? I guess a grade two kid in SL knows better than you. By the way, is spanish a main language of US? is chinese ,hindi mail languages of US?
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.
you need to be living in sri lanka to see the true discrimination that goes on against tamils...it is not enough to be living abroad and to tell tamils to suck it up...one should not feel unwelcome in their own country!
yeah the tamil tigers mayb suicide bombers and it may seem like a big crime but its not the gouvernment is dropping bombs on tamil human beings, and they killed over 50 000 tamils in like 2 days, more than 100 tamils in less that 1 single hour, and more are dying due to lack of medicen and etc
When it comes to Sonali - She has some good points as Lasantha also did. But nothing of their work and standing up against the govt oppression of sinhalese and other sri lankans, includes getting the Tamil seperatists your so called Tamil homeland in Sri Lanka. U won't find people who are more against LTTE than these two.
Your whining and crying for nothing has no place in Sri Lanka.
Mother Sri Lanka will guide all of us who want to be true Sri Lankans.
* Three Kingdoms, one country. The King / cheiftain of the Jaffna Kingdom paid taxes to the Singhala king in Kandy who ruled the whole country.
There was never ever a permanant independant Tamil country in Sri Lanka. Look at Sri Lanka. There is no evidence of Tamil dominance in Sri Lanka. We have to stop wasting our time with these types of nonsense theories and look how we can live peacefully.
U are the one who needs to wake up & face the truth. Sri Lanka is the home for all Sri Lankan Tamils.
But some gold digging refugees like yourself have a complete different perception of the situation, just so that u can justify to yourself the sorry made up stories of discrimination & oppression.
SL has a written & proven history of over 2500 years. Eelamist theories about kingdoms etc are very new, ca. 61 years. There's no truth to these theories.
"A Tamil Sri Lankan Patriot. " ??? you are obviously a sinhalese.The government itself has plastered the countryside with enormous placards lauding the military with the slogan, in Sinhala, the language of the Sinhalese majority to which I too, belong, stating: Soldiers, our race salutes you! Not the people, not the country, but the race. - Sonali Wickrematunge
Sonali is a Sinhalese. If she critisizes the govt that means that not all singhalese agree with the govt. I think that just proves the whiners amoung us Tamils are so wrong.
As to the slogan itself: There 's no word for race in Sinhalese (like sanskrit). The word Jathiya is used to say national as well as race. The slogan prob. is meant to say that Sri Lankans salute them.
Pointing fingers & making big deals about nothing is how this problem started.
She didn't critisize SL govt. because didn't agree with SL govt. but her husband was killed by the SL Government for bringing out the attrocities. Its not whiners, they are good people standing up against oppression. So you think you know more Sinhala than an editor of a truthful magazine ?? You can wake up people who are sleeping but not who are pretending to be sleeping.
There is no history in the world that a freedom struggle has been crushed. period.
Ofcourse she critizises the govt. Don't talk about internal SL affairs to me. I guess u are a 2nd or 3rd generation Tamil refugee, so u don't know what is happening in SL.
This is not about knowing more sinhala. There is no word for race in sinhala. The Tamil extremists like u critisize the sinhalese and say look they don't want to include others, so they don't have a word for it. U guys twist turn anything and everything to make the sinhalese look bad.
It seems these days that many individuals find it easy to say that most reporters or people commenting on the recent war in favour of the Tamil majority or LTTE are supporters of terrorism HOWEVER These 3 incidents took place WELL before the LTTE were born. WHO DO YOU HAVE TO BLAME?

Hey Mr leadusmother can you expalin what else you want as tamil ? free education,free hospitals,right to vote for your representative. i accept the facts you said 1983 it was genocide. but its 26 years ago, SL changed a lot. now SL ready for new beginning. may be you had da hash memories. so as me i lost my father due to this WAR. but ill tell you LTTE is not your solution. you are living in past , but SL is now changed . you can be a part of new sri lanka. coz we bealive u r part of us
Mr. Abtharan, your General Fonseka's comments follows:
"I strongly believe that this country belongs to the Sinhalese but there are minority communities and we treat them like our people...We being the majority of the country, 75%, we will never give in and we have the right to protect this country...We are also a strong nation ... They can live in this country with us. But they must not try to, under the pretext of being a minority, demand undue things." and youstill believe your politicians?!
You says that SL has changed now, do you know what growth means, what change means?,even US had slaves decades ago. But it grew leaps and bounds to the level of having a black President. Can you pls show me just one such sign of change in SL. Your politicians/buddist monks have raped your country & your minds. There is no gurantee that another 83 july will not happen, there is no gurantee that another of our library will no be burnt.I think we have had enough.
I DON"T want to be hating on sinhalese but their fucken government they worship is noting but cold hearted murders .. they bomb school and hospitals ... rape our sisters and kill our brothers.. the evidence is right there.. yes LTTE did some unforgivable thinks as well..BUT PEOPLE HAVE have understand that Tamil got it Alot worser then Sinhalese people... OK lets forget about the past now.... what sri lanka is doing to Tamil civilian RIGHT NOW!! is genocide .. and it must STOP !!!!
Burnt the liabraries to decrease to literracy rate and education of tamil people and give them no hope, and theres more. All the symptoms of genocide like rwanda and germany.
From education, to civil service, to businesses and private sector, to land-ownership in Colombo Tamils are enjoying more than their fair share. How would it be possible if there is so-called discrimination against Tamils in Sri Lanka ?
Tamils are in Colombo because they had no choice but to move away from their homes due to the war, just because they live and have business in Colombo does not mean we are being treated equally. Can you answer this question: Why did the Sinhalese burnt the Jaffna Library ? Why did the government did not protect the Tamils during 1983 riots ? How SL govt. indiscriminately killing its own people using Multi Barrel Rocket. Do you understand the intention. That's Genocide.
Fact: A person from the majority Sinhalese cannot buy a piece of land in the North (prevented by a pact), but the Tamils can buy land anywhere in the country. Statistically speaking, Tamils are occupying more than their share in universities, in the civil service, the government and even in the private sector. From Sea Street to 4th Cross Street , there are certain trades and industries that "belong" to the Tamils, and no Sinhala or Muslim merchant can penetrate that.
I agree completely. I am a Tamil myself. I don't know why these people are whining.
We have free education, free medical care, free school books etc etc and even today 30% of the students in the Colombo univ are Tamils. We are only 4-5% today. 99% of the students in the Jaffna univ are Tamils.
Where is the discrimination?
Everybody should take a pause and look in to the facts. We were never discriminated. This is such a big lie that got out of hand.
where is the discrimination if your a real tamil you would know it which you are not i used to live in colombo i had many singhalese friends we used to play cricket but wenever i got into a fight with a singhalese person for the game all these singhalese will crowd up on me and call me themela pariah(fucking tamil) theres alot of discrimination if u were tamil you would know it
they attacked temples and mosques, brutally executing monks, priests and innocent people while they were praying. From Aranthalawa, Dimbulagala and Sri Maha Bodhiya to Kandy , the barbaric LTTE terrorists didn't even spare a temple or a mosque. It's the Tamil terrorists committing genocide in Sri Lanka , not anyone else
Sinhala and Muslim communities living in the North and East not so long ago. Where are they now? Who has systematically eliminated them, chased them out of their own homes? Who has chopped the heads off the infants, split opened pregnant mothers, stamped their wombs, killed every Sinhala person in sight and torched their villages? Starting from the Kent Farm and Model Farm, the Tamil extremists have eliminated the Sinhala and Muslim communities from the North
tamil tiger flag flaying aroud the world. no one give fuck about SL government they know who is terrorist.
SL armfoce kill child newborne and unborne . they kill any one report again Sl government recently they kill sinhela reporter LASANTHA WIKRAMATUNGA. CANADA US UK rest of the countrey must kick SL high commission out of here . sinhela mob attack tamil in australia they wearing SL cricket jercey
in Darfur (2003), in Rwanda (1994), and Holocaust (1940s), then this is your chance to stop the genocide against Tamils in Sri Lanka.
Please join the Canadians Tamils rallying at the Parliament Hill to save the Tamils in Sri Lanka. -- " Better to light one small candle than to curse the darkness
of press to show the outside world what s really happening.. Please we beg you, HELP US.. their bein raped, bombed and now the government are using chemical weapons to kill a massive amount of people. ITS NOW OR NEVER
leadusmother,Hilarious! Your country is shrunk to 20sqkm. Pls appologize me for my poor education because I went to a school in a remote village in Sri Lanka where I had to study under a home made kerozin lamp and not like you in high class college in West/Europe thanks to barberic LTTE. Probably English must be your mother tongue and mind you, English is my second language and hardly use it. Intention of SL is very clear, to eliminate LTTE terrorist from this earth and save our fellow citizens.

Fein, Why dont you procecute President Bush against invasion of Iraq and genocide of Iraqis? There is no genocide in Sri Lanka. Genocide done by LTTE, ethnicaly cleansing Sinhalese and Muslims in the North and Eat of Sri Lanka. 54% of Tamils are living with Sinhalese in South of Sri Lanka. Gen Fonseka is the best commander we ever had backed by best president. All Sri Lankans are behind him and GOSL. You gonna start a real genocide if your dreams ever comes true. Peace to all. LTTE to hell!
First of all, the spelling of our country is Eelam, NOT Ealam which clearly shows your level of education, which I am not surprised after looking at your user username and comments. You are yet another poor Sinhalese soul carried away by the emotional rhetoric of Sinhala politicians since Mahavamsa was written. The world already knows the real intention of SL, its just a matter of time they need to act, forgetting their strategic interests in SL.
Sri Lanka is a democratic country. Its leaders and policy is the wish of people. Very sorry, any nation has the right to defend themselves. Sri Lanka had enough and now they fight back, because it was LTTE (and its supporters/employees) who shouted so far and its the time to stand on feet. Go on Sri Lanka, do not listen to others who have NO heart for Sri Lanka, they are just looking forward to light their cigars from the fire in your beard...
Please keep hands off the Sri Lankan peace process, the people leading it and the people behind it. Even though Sinhala people are calm, fair and accommodating, they are not stupid. Watch your backs, Sri Lankans know what is behind all forces. We respect humanity only, nothing more. Genocide was happening for Sinhala people and now the time to put things right. Any nation should be left in their peace. Not to be invaded. We are with all Sri Lankan leaders. No one can harm them!!
utubemadu - sinhala leaders have done enough openly to show the world that they are entitled to face genocide procecution. Its just the beginning with Sarath Fonseka and Goth. Rakapaksa. and you can keep counting....
Lakshman Kadirgamar, Dr Neelan Thiruchelvam, Dr Rajini Thiranagama, Alfred Duraiappah, K Sivanesan, T. Maheshwaran, Nadarajah Raviraj, Joseph Pararajasingham, Saranabawan Shanmuganathan, Appapillai Amirthalingam, V.Yogeswaran, K Alalasundaram, S Dharmalingam,
All intelligent and brave Sri Lankan Tamils. Some perhaps the most gifted Sri Lankans of their Generation. They are the known names among unknown thousands KILLED BY THE LTTE. please stop this farce.
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.
I agree that the internet is an unreliable source but its stil the only thing that connects one person from one place to another. Yet u wound not have heard about it this issue but they've confrimed it the canadian government has confirmed that truth. just today.
Tamil despora you done nothing to innocent in north,look how much LTTE destroy,you need to overcome your hate,fain is just a shit who will take your money,pay this money to build schools in north and east
That's what I'm wondering because it's getting out of hand. I heard that there is no allowance of any contact or peacekeepers though. I'm not sure. It's just what I heard.
The genocide of Tamils should be made aware to every countries in the four corners of the world. The Sinhalese government should be exposed of its atrocities.
Very true seldomseennow, the LTTE has found another gullible westerner to pull the guilt strings and distort the facts. This is a hateful propoganda film made by violent people. Lies can never prevail. The truth will come out in the end.
I am afraid that you are the one that is being used as a pawn to promote a WAR that needs to end. If I am so gullible then I will conclude attempting getting anymore "facts" from you. I have not seen anything that has solidified your statements and you seem to be changing sides on a regular basis as well.
I agree with TamilTruth. I can't believe you'd believe all that nonsense on the Internet when you should be listening to people who lived through the experience. The Internet doesn't always have the right information and is usually portrayed by racist opinions. If you're so ignorant about the situation, please don't comment until YOU educate yourself.
Yes the side for PEACE. Both sides deny atrocities, you call bluffs yet have not facts. I am NOT on any side but the side OF PEACE. You both seem to be on the side of WAR.
Uh Jessieinamercy uh 32 NATIONS DECLARED THE LTTE TERRORISTS, they killed Ghandi and other politicians, they are drug dealers, kidnappers, credit card fraud and engage in every crime imaginable. MY GOD YOU ARE SITTING IN FRONT OF A COMPUTER GOOGLE IT AND YOU WILL SEE THOUSANDS UPON THOUSANDS OF CRIMES. Don't be a foolish, uneducated ostrich. On the side of war? How goofy is that? Please tell me how denouncing murderous terrorists makes someone for war. IT MEANS I AM AGAINST IT DUH?
Rajapakse government used America's war on terror in a very opportunistic way to destroy a whole ethnic group's just resistance against an oppressive government system, in which racism is institutionalised to its core.
"Genocide is the deliberate and systematic destruction, in whole or in part, of an ethnic, racial, religious, or national group."
More than enough evidence in Sri Lanka to meet the meaning of the above statement.
I have stated time and time again I DO NOT condone promote or support the killing of ANYONE or anything except people who are rapist murders and actual THREATS to PEACE AND INJUSTICE and been given A FAIR TRIAL.
Your name calling and BLIND accusations toward me NEED TO STOP NOW.

you must educate yourself and do research as I have becuase you are positively ignorant and uninformed on the topic.

Think about it.
If you can so easily lie about me and what I represent, you are lying about more than just that. I have NEVER supported aided or abetted any terrorist and NEVER will!! I am doing my research and YOU ARE ATTACKING ME AGAIN, as you have done from the start!

if you are for the ltte - like you are - then you ARE for murder of innocents as 32 nations have documented their atrocities against innocent men woman and children. It's like being for the Nazi's. The ltte are the NEW NAZI'S what do you not understand about that? Their crimes and murders are well documented. If you were educated on the topic then you would know.

the hater is jessinamercy- anyone who sides with a terrorist group is a hater. I am AGAINST the terrorists so that makes ME a hater of terrorists so what is wrong with that? so I suppose you LOVE the ltte terrorists but in that context hate is good and love is not. hate of evil is good love of evil IS NOT.
oh so now you admit you are clueless. So I will educate you - ltte declared international terrorists by 32 nations committing rape, robbery, fraud, drug lords, kidnappers and murderers of innocent woman and children READ ABOUT IT JUST GOOGLE IT. "hiding behind youtube account"??? roflmao what do you want my name and address etc? is that what you would like??
what do you mean by attack? do you mean physically or verbally? but then YOU attacked ME FIRST so I guess YOU are actually attacking "someone in your own country" roflmao!!! So you would not side with someone against the mass murder of woman and children by the ltte? So you would not side with the british against the nazi's just because you didn't like some british guy? etc?
I have decided that sedomseenow is one of the Americans that are promoting hate and injustice, and attempting to skew fact with blind rage (FYI). This individual is one of the extremists here in America that condone hate and murder without getting the whole story. (IE dis trust and hatred against ALL middle eastern cultures etc.) I find it funny that gerdes01 states these are the people that are horrible yet he has a supporter that is one...Ironic isn't it?

Ie dis hate and distrust against all middle east cultures-I find it ironic that she is a fan of maravan who is ltte aider
Where you get the details that LTTE kills innocent people? Unless LTTE claimed the responsiblity, it is NOT true.
It is a Srilankan government and their associates are the one who set off bombs in the South of Srilanka and blame it on LTTE so that they can justify their genocide campaign against Tamils.
There he goes again, calling names. We are not in fourth grade anymore seldomseennow. This is why I blocked you. Failure to have an intelligent and respectful conversation will be your downfall. Name calling just makes you look like a bully.
there she goes again aiding and abetting and enabling the mass murderer terrorists ltte killers of woman and babies and Jessinamercy condones this and is for it and loves the vile ltte mass murderers declared terroirsts by 32 nationas. DISGRACEFUL DISPICABLE HORRENDOUS Failure for Jessinamercy to have a intelligent respectful conversation will be your downfall. Oh yea right like someone for the mass murders of innocents and who supports the ltte murderers deserves respect? i think NOT
jessinamercy-oh I'm all broken up oooohhhh you blocked me. How will I sleep? VERY VERY WELL why is your name "mercy" when you support mass murdering ltte who show NO MERCY to their victims who beg them for life only to have their precious lives snuffed out usually by having their heads chopped off with a vile machete?

From education, to civil service, to businesses and private sector, to land-ownership in Colombo Tamils are enjoying more than their fair share. How would it be possible if there is so-called discrimination against Tamils in Sri Lanka ?
ABTHARAN 2 years ago
Tamils are in Colombo because they had no choice but to move away from their homes due to the war, just because they live and have business in Colombo does not mean we are being treated equally. Can you answer this question: Why did the Sinhalese burnt the Jaffna Library ? Why did the government did not protect the Tamils during 1983 riots ? How SL govt. indiscriminately killing its own people using Multi Barrel Rocket. Do you understand the intention. That's Genocide.

Fact: A person from the majority Sinhalese cannot buy a piece of land in the North (prevented by a pact), but the Tamils can buy land anywhere in the country. Statistically speaking, Tamils are occupying more than their share in universities, in the civil service, the government and even in the private sector. From Sea Street to 4th Cross Street , there are certain trades and industries that "belong" to the Tamils, and no Sinhala or Muslim merchant can penetrate that.

I agree completely. I am a Tamil myself. I don't know why these people are whining.
We have free education, free medical care, free school books etc etc and even today 30% of the students in the Colombo univ are Tamils. We are only 4-5% today. 99% of the students in the Jaffna univ are Tamils.
Where is the discrimination?
Everybody should take a pause and look in to the facts. We were never discriminated. This is such a big lie that got out of hand.

they attacked temples and mosques, brutally executing monks, priests and innocent people while they were praying. From Aranthalawa, Dimbulagala and Sri Maha Bodhiya to Kandy , the barbaric LTTE terrorists didn't even spare a temple or a mosque. It's the Tamil terrorists committing genocide in Sri Lanka , not anyone else

Sinhala and Muslim communities living in the North and East not so long ago. Where are they now? Who has systematically eliminated them, chased them out of their own homes? Who has chopped the heads off the infants, split opened pregnant mothers, stamped their wombs, killed every Sinhala person in sight and torched their villages? Starting from the Kent Farm and Model Farm, the Tamil extremists have eliminated the Sinhala and Muslim communities from the North

leadusmother,Hilarious! Your country is shrunk to 20sqkm. Pls appologize me for my poor education because I went to a school in a remote village in Sri Lanka where I had to study under a home made kerozin lamp and not like you in high class college in West/Europe thanks to barberic LTTE. Probably English must be your mother tongue and mind you, English is my second language and hardly use it. Intention of SL is very clear, to eliminate LTTE terrorist from this earth and save our fellow citizens.

Fein, Why dont you procecute President Bush against invasion of Iraq and genocide of Iraqis? There is no genocide in Sri Lanka. Genocide done by LTTE, ethnicaly cleansing Sinhalese and Muslims in the North and Eat of Sri Lanka. 54% of Tamils are living with Sinhalese in South of Sri Lanka. Gen Fonseka is the best commander we ever had backed by best president. All Sri Lankans are behind him and GOSL. You gonna start a real genocide if your dreams ever comes true. Peace to all.

Mr. NoEalamInSL
First of all, the spelling of our country is Eelam, NOT Ealam which clearly shows your level of education, which I am not surprised after looking at your user username and comments. You are yet another poor Sinhalese soul carried away by the emotional rhetoric of Sinhala politicians since Mahavamsa was written. The world already knows the real intention of SL, its just a matter of time they need to act, forgetting their strategic interests in SL.

Sri Lanka is a democratic country. Its leaders and policy is the wish of people. Very sorry, any nation has the right to defend themselves. Sri Lanka had enough and now they fight back, because it was LTTE (and its supporters/employees) who shouted so far and its the time to stand on feet. Go on Sri Lanka, do not listen to others who have NO heart for Sri Lanka, they are just looking forward to light their cigars from the fire in your beard...

Please keep hands off the Sri Lankan peace process, the people leading it and the people behind it. Even though Sinhala people are calm, fair and accommodating, they are not stupid. Watch your backs, Sri Lankans know what is behind all forces. We respect humanity only, nothing more. Genocide was happening for Sinhala people and now the time to put things right. Any nation should be left in their peace. Not to be invaded. We are with all Sri Lankan leaders. No one can harm them!!

Rajapakse government used America's war on terror in a very opportunistic way to destroy a whole ethnic group's just resistance against an oppressive government system, in which racism is institutionalised to its core.
"Genocide is the deliberate and systematic destruction, in whole or in part, of an ethnic, racial, religious, or national group."
More than enough evidence in Sri Lanka to meet the meaning of the above statement.

Where you get the details that LTTE kills innocent people? Unless LTTE claimed the responsiblity, it is NOT true.
It is a Srilankan government and their associates are the one who set off bombs in the South of Srilanka and blame it on LTTE so that they can justify their genocide campaign against Tamils.
