Ha tamilboys and the other boys gone crazy! Why is he posting a no related article in all these discussions!
If he was warned that is his business to write only in a stanadard conforming to the conditions he accepted whe he signed up. That is no excuse to say the others are also not conforming to the conditions.That's the job of the Administartor to delete them- If he doesn't like anybody's abuse complain it to the admnistrator, not follow teh abusers!

Well done Admin get rid of all those abusers who cannot argue here decently! They bring the quality to a very low status.

MR.GRW1
I DON/T UNDERSTAND WHY YOU GUYS ARE BARKING OF TERRORIMSM?

WHAT YOU HAVE DONE TO TAMILS IS DEMOCRACY SINCE 1948
HOW DO YOU JUSTIFY THAT?

I DON/T SEE A MEMBER WHO IS FROM MAYORITY REMORSE FOR WHAT THEY HAVE DONE TO TAMIL

HOW DO YOU CALL THAT MORE THAN 65000 TAMILS WERE KILL BY SL?

ARE THEY LTTE?

Dear Kumara,
You are clearly a relatively new member. There are 100s of occasions Sinhalease members condemning atrocities. There were members like Aritha who condemned the Sinhala only act. Nemerous occasions I have condemned the sinhala only act and the miscarrage of justice in Bindunuwewa.

Many members have condemned and still do condemn 1983 riots, which as every body agrees was a shameful act.

I have also condemned (and so have the others such as Magha) the assasination of Mr. Sivaram, Mr. Nirmalarajan, Mr. Amirthalingam and Mr. Kumar Ponnambalam. In addition I have condemned the asssination of Dr. Neelan Thiruchelvam etc.

These posts are old and you wont be able to see them. But there are many Sinhaleae who have condemned injustices against communities.

Fact of the matter is US don't love Tamils or Sinhalese but them selves. They will manipulate our idiots until they deliver. We will cheer from either side when the opposition is pinched.

It's what happenned during the past and it will continue so long as our ignorant SRILANKANS think they are loved than others. It's just a matter of time both of our communities fast track whole country and nation of Sri Lanka.

Until then enjoy barking guys!!

SPECIALFORCES,

What are you talking man? How can Cowered Velu can be equal to Ranna Ponil? Velu had some kids to my knowledge whereas Ranna Ponil doesn't have any.

RaviG,

I partially agree with your comment. But in this case US is under severe preasure from there own authorities. Hence, now they are extra careful when dealing with the terrorist organisations, or else the government will have to pay the prize in next elections.

SF (specially for you and other) : i pasted a thing that Sinhalas have to understand.

Capital Hill warms to 'Occupier' theory on Suicide attacks

TamilNet, July 11, 2005 01:39 GMT

Faulting the U.S policy makers for misreading suicide terrorism as a function of Islamic fundamentalism, Robert A Pape of University of Chicago says that most suicide attacks are undertaken to drive away occupying forces, Washington Post said in an article Sunday reviewing Pape's recent book 'Dying to win.' 'Several of the 18 legislators at the Capitol Hill briefing found his
Prof Pape's
ideas interesting,' the paper added.
'What over 95% of all suicide attacks around the world since 1980 have in common is not religion, but a clear, strategic objective to compel a modern democracy to withdraw military forces from the territory that the terrorists view as their homeland,' Washington Post quoted Prof Pape as as saying.

Senator Richard Lugar (Republican, Indiana) was impressed with the analysis, according to his spokesperson and Senator Craig Thomas (R-Wyoming) said he found the analysis plausible, the paper said.

Marc Sageman, author of 'Understanding Terror Networks,' faulted Pape for putting 'al Queda in the same basket as such secular organizations as Sri Lanka's Tamil Tigers and Palestinian groups in Lebanon. Pepe may be right about the Tigers and the Palestinians but he misunderstands al Qaeda, the review said.

Another analyst, Peter Bergen, author of 'Holy war Inc' called Pape's theory 'kind of brilliant.'

Michael Schuerer, former CIA analyst, says Pape's statistics 'definitely show that people are attacked by suicide car bombs not because of who they are or what they believe...Instead people use car bombs to attack occupying powers,' Washington Post further said.

Interesting, ppl should understand that Al-queda is different of LTTE . They have differents geo-politics view !

Its refreshing to note the return of SK63 & long lost
Lakshmi Gajan Paramasivam from Australia to the fold.

Lakshmi, some try to be OZ before they could be considered to be mainstream. This is like some who develop accents just to indicate they have been overseas.

let it be from any community, yakko Sri lankan attitude can never change in a trues Sri Lankan whether he comes from Tim Buck Tuk.

Looking forward for an input from Aritha Spice as well.

Whatever the race, your inputs are weighed & measured fron SL standards. Quote from Lakshmi.P

US or no US, lets get back to our merry ways as the west got lot to learn from our easy going ways.

Even, VP m,ust be lazing away in Wanni comfort with some juicy KK mangoes & Murunga Curry & a meal served on a banana leaf. If they have changed, then they are not worthy of being branded SL terrorists.

Thank you Samanj for the warm welcome back message. I was with the Australian prison system and the Mental Health system, getting the direct experience of those systems. I now feel more wholesome. Good to know you missed me. I feel valued. Thank you deeply.

I like your statement about 'yakko Sri Lankan attitude'. It indicates that you think Sri Lankan and not Sinhalese, Tamil or Muslim. One thinks at the common level at the two ends. One who has done the higher intellectual work thinks at the higher common level. I believe I belong in this group. One who has done least work and therefore accepts 'fate' thinks at the lower common level. I believe that the Sri Lankan doctor who 'judged' me belongs in this group. All others who take sides belong in the rich middle class.

You say 'US or no US, lets get back to our merry ways as the west got lot to learn from our easy going ways'.

The West is learning from us but without due respect at the higher levels. Sri Lankans are less stressed because they intuitively fall back on Truth through their respective religions. I believe that as long as we do what we can we are rewarded as per our feelings, through the system of Natural Justice which works on the basis of Truth. Even if it is a low key activity, if we find Truth, we will carry it eternally and give it various manifestations as per the relevant environments. The West tends to work on the basis of the physical body alone. We Easterners tend to work on the basis of rebirth about which we have intuitive wisdom due to our elders who found that there is life beyond the body.

I feel touched by your expression 'Even, VP m,ust be lazing away in Wanni comfort with some juicy KK mangoes & Murunga Curry & a meal served on a banana leaf. If they have changed, then they are not worthy of being branded SL terrorists.'

I believe that the war has improved both sides. Recognizing this is the best way to honour the dead. My cousin whose birthday it was yesterday was killed by the Tigers. I was told that the hierarchy did not know about this. Likewise there would be wrong doings by the Sinhalese forces which the government also would not be aware of. All I know is that my cousin Krishna was not a violent person and therefore was not a terrorist on any side. Hence I know that those who killed him feared themselves and read themselves through Krishna. It's an imaginary fear. We need to help surface each other's fears and consciously and expressly address it. This is where the West can help us through the system of democracy in which they have invested more than we have. But where Truth is known to both sides that must be recognized above any system ? democracy and autocracy included. Truth / Love is the end of all systems. Once we find Truth / Love we must lose consciousness of rights and wrongs on the way.

I preferred Ambalavi mangoes to KK. But now I have renounced mangoes to share the pain of a White Australian friend who died of cancer. Pain sharing is the shortcut to ownership. I did it out of love and the ownership benefits flow automatically. Whether it is people or country, if we genuinely love we would accept their pain and weaknesses as ours. Otherwise it is only attraction and not love.

Thank you again for the warm welcome. I needed it.
