geographically Tamils are closed to Lanka than Sinhalese origin place.Simply bcoz of majority doesn't mean lanka is motherland of Sinhalese only.This like claiming Europeans are origin of Americas.continuous war,quarrels and discrimination finally lead Tamils to claim separate state.Sinhalese know this well but never wanted them to yield. Sinhalese still wanted to control Tamils using military, stamping them as terrorist and cheating the world.

[davemmy]

we may have elements who would want a piece of your country just because they think they are "superior". I am just a human being just like you srilankan guys. I do not support any guy who wants a piece of your country. they are scum of the earth. I dont know whether India supported LTTE but we did pay our price by losing the only untainted politician. All indians are not like the people you see, Hope and wish our relations are more transparent. please dont get manipulated by politics

[kokoinmars]

You sri lankan nigger should understand that god created black sri lankans to serve as slaves for us mighty indians. Without any guidance from your genetically superior masters, you are just demons as shown in ramayana. You assholes should be happy that we allow you to breathe. If we want, all your women would just be our sex slaves and cows and all your men would find their head and cock missing. Just keep that in mind, black ass sri lankan nigger faggots.
