MaKaSo,
Don't you think LTTE leadership is responsible for the ban
Yes, to some extent. LTTE leader spoke on the Heroes Day that he would give 1 year to the newly elected President to come up with a solution to the ethnic problem. But because 2 youths were shot dead in Nirveli on 2nd Dec 2005 by SLA assisted EPDP a claymore mine was set up that resulted in the deaths of 6 soldiers and tit-for-tat attacks continued.
LTTE leadership should have stuck to their agenda rather than events determine it. Though it was SLA/EPDP started the killings GoSL propaganda machine(all the colombo press, radio, embassies abroad and GoSL funded electronic media and so on) looked as if it was LTTE that started the violence and SLA reacted to it.
If you really think about the demonstration, it was not against EU, it was against LTTE leadership.
It was certainly against the ban but the above headline is a delibrate lie and yours is a twisted derivation.
Do you really think if our political leaders including Sinhalese hardliners admiring Ananthasangaree continued to fight for our lost rights the SL leadership would have solved this problem by now? We think not, but the destrution and deaths of Tamils would have continued by riots without any apparant loss to the South. You are now concerned about the ability of LTTE to cause damage to the South and that prompt the hardliners to destroy LTTE at any cost. |

| Yes!there are handful of expatriate who have welcome this ban.But who are these people?They are the people who steel the temple funds and purchase properties in colombo and in other countries,who are paid by SL to betray the tamils and are selfish creatures.In short, they are the black sheeps in the tamil community.But, thankfully, they are less than 5% of the tamils living abroad.It is pity that sinhala racists have to depend on these rejects and degenerates for their propoganda against.But 95% of expatriate tamils are behind the LTTE. |

Canadian Tamils also gathered to a park in downtown but there were no VP's pictures. It was bad that Toronto transit shut the service on the same day.
Makaso.. It's obvious you weren't at the rally in toronto, I was and I gurantee you there were enough photos of Prabhakaran. About 35,000 people were chanting 'Engal thalaivar Prabhakaran!' (our leader is Prabhakaran)at the top of their lungs. The TTC strike did throw a monkey wrench into things, as there were a lot of ppl who couldn't make it to the rally.. But still 35,000+ ppl despite the strike is pretty good I would say..
The protest wasn't just against the EU ban. It's was more against the failure to condemn and enforce sanctions on the GOSL for the atrocities commited against the Tamil civilians. (Now we know the EU has imposed sanctions on GOSL). It was also to pressure the GOSL into genuine peace talks. |

A political package in the form of a federal system/devolution package with all party consensus (at least the major parties consensus) is the best ever political solution to this longstanding issue and will definitely bring normalcy and peace to the country in the medium term, which is what 99% of both sinhalese and tamils want.
Also if the LTTE does not like this, they will be exposed at peace talks as the party which does not want peace! Edited By - forest - 3 Jun 2006 16:01:39 GMT |

To Tusker, the Colonel and other assorted Yaks:
EU banned the LTTE. The Donors read the riot act.What has changed in Sri Lanka? Nothing!
The LTTE is alive and well and continues to blast the as'es of the sinhala occupiers on a daily basis.
Mahinda is again trying to fool the IC by publicising his plan to solve the ethnic problem under a unitary state, which he knows will be rejected by the tamils.
The Mahinda government will never solve the ethnic problem and it is up to the LTTE to solve it - by war. The sooner the better. |
