watch and learn how a peoples determination and courage can give people to be proud of themselves.


SWRD,
this is what called a society being brought to the lower depths of poverty ,humiliation and starvation by hypocrisy. Today there are two obvious societies in the world that had took member ship with Tamils of Sri Lanka for self destruction but remained with a bloated frog like pompous to cover the absolute stupidity , North Korea with KimJong's dictatorship and Iraq killing Iraqis because USA occupies Iraq.
You, SWRD being an ambassador of similar stupidity makes the field of entertainment industry flourish with comedians.

in the meantime be thankful a Tamil student with higher marks stood aside for you to enter medical school with lower marks. so you can come here and put on your conceited airs


Oops,

I did not go to medical School in Sri Lanka and I did not take a Tamil students place for my higher education . So, just releive your methane Gas you are expelling gobbling the Tamil Trash among your fan club and not here stinking the forum.

Forget EVERYTHING else for a moment, What the LTTE has done to the Tamils, is equally bad as what those Sinhala mobs did to the Tamils in 83. Today ANY tamil would live among the Sinhalese in Wallawattha than live under the LTTE in Vanni.


anizam

true and hard to dispute but what is the solution? if not for the ltte who would fight for the tamils. even more importantly how would the tamils fight for their rights? are you suggesting the tamils should lie low and accept the discrimination? if your answer is no then how do you suggest the tamils fight effectively taking in to account all the prior peaceful attempts. cant you see it is easy to say (and also hard to disprove) that the ltte has caused a lot of hardship to the tamils but on the other hand it will be also hard for you to suggest an effective mode of fighting.

Magha,

I would like to focus on the good points of your post.

You noted that what most Tamils call the liberation struggle
of course had been given an impetus through the facts of post independence Sri Lanka.


Those
facts of post independence Sri Lanka
was exactly what this short introductory documentary showed. I agree with you on this.

But Magha I also agree that it is insufficient to examine these 'facts' in only such a brief manner, now you have got the ball rolling and can elaborate more on these facts of post independence Sri Lanka. Please go ahead and begin the 'intellectual' discussion.

We can take each fact perhaps using the short documentary as a starting point

- the GA Neville Jayaweera's assignment to
bring Jaffna to heel
when the people were protesting peacefully for their rights

- the pogrom of 1958

- the interview with SWRD about Sinhala Only

- the implementation of Sinhala Only under his widow Srimavo's administration.


Or any other
fact
brought up in the documentary that you may wish to deconstruct, contextualize, historicize, reimagine, whatever you like.

Let us begin this discussion.

Well , my friend anizam will post his reply independently, but I would like Mr.SWRD to highlight in this forum the discrimination of Tamils of Sri Lanka he is talking about today in the 21st century year 2006.

It is a historic mistake by Tamils not asking for a Federal or a Seperate state at the time of Independence. I do not understand why they did not request it that way.

Under British regime the high cast tamils were a privillaged group of people. The Singhals high cast fellows were mad of it.

Poor innocent helpless ordinarry tamils became the victim of this high casts's confrontation after independence.

The high casts could tempt the ordinary people to fight their war. The common problems of people were defined and convinced as problems encountered for being tamil.

Now the end is clear.
Tamils should carefully engeneer the situation now to get a Federal with wide powers.

Its so important that they do not do a mistake now...

You noted that what you call Tamil 'Racism' or what Tamils call self defense or liberation 'of course had been given an impetus through the facts of post independence Sri Lanka.'


Vimukthi,
Thanks for the invitation for an intelligent discussion . How ever prior to that I would like to emphasize that you have altered my posting adding you own thoughts ' or what Tamils call self defense or liberation '

- the GA Neville Jayaweera's assignment to 'bring Jaffna to heel' when the people were protesting peacefully for their rights
- the pogrom of 1958
- the interview with SWRD about Sinhala Only
- the implementation of Sinhala Only under his widow Srimavo's administration


My starting point is not here , but year 1505 for a discussion . When you are ready, we will start and we should ask Mr.Brown to have a new topic designated and pertaining to such a topic so we could have a thread of continuous and uninterrupted intelligent discussion.

For your information I have condemned the Signhala only act and university admission criteria during Sirima's time in many of my posts.
