Gaja,
Absolutely. However, there is reality. India because of their huge middle class market and the fact they are considered by many western countries as a potential reginal balancing power vis-a-vis China, they have a considerable clout in the world stage.
We have to deal with them very carefully. We should always allow them in their regional leadership role withoput allowing them to interfere too much in our internal affairs. Sometimes we, whether like it or not, have to play within the Global Political landscape.

It is becoming too complicated.

Thank you Kulakottan for the second response.

I agree that India is a significant power. But it will be so only if it follows the protocols to respect the genuine work of the Tamils. First of this is to not interfere at the visible level, except when specifically invited to do so. At all other times India must help without being 'seen'. India is big enough to do this. The question is whether the people responsible feel this bigness. Their selfishness can be their undoing.

Gaja,
They with their new found Economic power getting power hungry too. They would like a destablized Sri Lanka or a country that will play second fiddle to India. They have successfully played the first part very well so far, to finally acheive the second part.

I do not think they care about what anybody think about their motives.

With Tamil Nadu also part of the new central Govt. its difficult to change. Their Foreign Affairs policy sometime ignores the Political Ledaership. we have very little choice.

Its difficult. Our choice is limited:
Do we become Bhutan and submit to them?
or
Do we allow them to create another Nepal in Sri Lanka?

Or Is there another option?
It is only possible if both sides in our conflict understand this.

Otherwise there will be unsolicited advice would come from across the Palk-streight.

Hope our majority brethren too understand this.
Bye .

Thank you Kulakottan.

I believe that the Tiger-Indian solution would be very different to any other in the past. It could be close to India Pakistan over Kashmir - with Indian playing the role of 'Pakistan' in Tiger area.

India is only as powerful as its Truth. If we stick to our Truth - no super power can beat us.

Gaja,
Truth takes a long time to offer a solution.

India's motives are very difficult to judge. Hats-off to their ability to promote their strategic Interest.

Sometime you have to go deep to understand them.
They help Somawansa, the same JVP man who was one of the many behind the Anti-Indian move during 1988, to escape the GOSL.

They are the same one who let down Ranil in 2004 and I bet now trying to support him.

If their involvement can bring peace to Sri Lanka, it would be the best, but
Whats the catch, is it 22???????

Thank you Kulakottan.

Yes, Truth takes a long time produce a solution. But once it delivers, it's permanent solution. That is the power of Truth.

Until then we have to base the solution on FACTS but not give too much importance to the judicial and political outcomes on the way. We must aim for the ultimate Truth and play the game to recognize only the outcomes that we need to - so we would continue to have motivation. All other outcomes are excessive and therefore tend to limit us to the lower levels.

We need to 'see' the real outcomes through self-assessment with little / no dependence on external elements. To the extent we feel connected to India through our Truth we must recognize them and feel motivated by their recognition. Beyond that we must use their actions and decisions as temporary media for our own globalisation.

Gandhi waited unti his Truth was recognized. Hence his universality.

Gaja,
Gandhi was lucky, he was dealing with the English. If he lived in Sri Lanka he would have also given that up and ended up like S J V Chelvanayagam who too believed in truth & non-violence and said when he resigned his seat for 'KKS' in Parliament :

'Only god can save the Tamil community'.

If god does not someone will.

Newbie,

You wrote [Yes, Sri Lankan pays the taxes and tax payer?s money is going to hand of terrorist]

Ah really ? And How ? Explain me ?

Pffff, be not ironic fool racist..

Newbie, i will ask you the same question than i asked to Sellam, who are those terrorists can you please describe their entire life , from birth to now ?...

The terror you described, is exactly the same made by sLA force who are pointed in front of university or school...

It's totally normal that children feel fear. They are terrorized by the presence of those strangers with guns in their hand... Imagine the poor tamil child who go to school seeing everyday an armed stranger in front of his school ...

How this child will react ?

Fool, your argumentation about terror is totally ironic.. because you are saying that THE terrorists are LTTE, but you don't consider SLA as a terrorist armed force...
What is your definition of terror ?

Does for you 'terror' sound with tamil ??....

Kural, the freedom fighter.

MR.Kural

I don't want to argue with you to find definition for terror. Tigers didn't pay a penny for SLAF for helicopter rides.
For you, SLA is a terrorist armed force and LTTE is an innocent freedom fighters. So, it's up to you to judge. In reality, everyone except few knows who the real terror is.

PS: I strongly believe that Tamils and Tigers are two separate entities.

Thank you Kulakottan for the response.

Gandhi was not lucky. He raised himself to the higher level through ownership of India. He did the work without expecting material returns and he learnt to live within whatever material benefits came his way. Hence he was driven by ownership. When you work driven by a feeling of ownership, you will not go up and down with material outcomes. You will know that your work has automatically given you ownership.

Gandhi was able to deal with the British. Chelvanayagam and others limited themselves to the Sri Lankan government, instead of going to the United Nations. I now defend the Tamils including the Tigers at the Australian level. Most other Tamils do so at the Sri Lankan level even though they live in Western countries and therefore have access to International facilities.

love
gaja
