| This is descrimination. Clear violation of Article 12(2) of the Constitution. No one should be discriminated due to his race. If registration does not apply to sinhala community how can you apply to tamil. They too are citizen of this country having equal rights with sinhala community. |

Yes Leonard!!
Tamils do carry the SL National Identity Card as a proof of citizenship..why should they register again..
The Sinhalese Govt may be collecting information to attack like what they did in 1983.
This can happen only in Sri Lanka!!
It is a total discrimination!! |

Lula,
It is not only Singhalese and Tamils are the same people but vast majority of Muslims too.
It is true that first Muslims coming here were Arab traders. However they did not bring Muslim women with them. So they got married to local women, Singhala speaking or Tamil speaking. Once they did that the Arab genes they carried did get diluted by 50% in the next generation. Since there was no continuous influx of Arab women ,each generation of Muslim men had more local women than Arabs as their spouses and Muslim women could have got married to local men who converted to Islam. Invariably after many centuries their progeny would carry more genes of local population than Arabs.
More reasons to unite than separate . |

Thank you Kevin for the caring response. I apologise for the delay in responding back. Was busy with Community and family priorities over the weekend.
You say America has turned their back on this convention and IC court of justice for the moment as US have to reckon with the loss of life of so many on that 9/11.
America used its economic power to influence the UN - the way many young ones use their economically less successful parents to acquire leadership status in families. Hence the 9/11 which would not have happened if not for the OIL controlled by the Arabs / Muslims. 9/11 is an extension of the Middle Eastern war and Tiger leader Prabaharan is the parallel of Yasser Arafat. Professional Tamils abroad are however more like the Jews than like the Palestinians and hence the ongoing limits of the Sri Lankan war. If it came to economic level, Tamils will win easily and I doubt that the Sinhalese would object to it. US got its own karma back. If it still has not learnt - they would hurt more in the future.
You say Quite correctly US is after their terrorists in Afghanistan and other Muslim countries and not going after the Eskimos or Maoris as it was obvious which type is responsible for their tragedy and likewise we know which type is responsible for our tragedy,which also include our conniving,corrupt leaders,who deliberately prolong this conflict.
This means they are not able to operate at Global level and need bilateral actions - 'showing' results of their work. Which side does the world participate with? What are the common measures. If US seeks bi-lateral actions - they need to limit their activities to their own territories and not take up Global resources towards this and away from much needed humanitarian work.
You say so hang the international convention,the convention that encouraged the minorities to rebel against a country,as it was very profitable for them.Not every one is fooled in this world.
No Kevin, to the exten I practiced those conventions I will carry them forward - however difficult and disappointing it may be. Once I think at policy level, the losses at the material level become mere indicators of success at the policy level. USA separating itself on the basis of its disppointments with International conventions is the proof that it was not driven by Global Principles. Hence the monies we paid towards this has been abused.
love

Magha,
You are right, even the Muslims are having a higher percentage of Sinhala/Tamil gene than the Arab.
As Ariyalai_SB used to say, we Sri Lankans(Sinhalese/Tamils/Muslims) are all from the same stock.
Yes, more reasons to unite than to separate, but unite under a united federal Sri Lanka and not under a failed unitary state.
BTW, Gaja Laxmi will never accept the above(Genetic affinities of Sri Lankan populations which says that the Sinhalese decend mostly from Indian Tamils and the Sri Lankan Tamils decend mostly from the Sinhalese) because she believes her intuition and according to her own gene theory, the Jaffna Tamils are having Extra ordinarily superior genes.

Both the Tamils and the Sinhalese have lost loved ones in this war.
It seams we would have been a greater nation if the British were still ruling over all of us.
We gained independence, but have lost our principles and our compassion toward others.
WAR will come to our homes and to our children, all because we can?t stand to be EQUAL ? because we want to win????.we will all lose. |

True macha, we also have potugese, dutch, malayali and malay blood too.
However, having xame genese will not help us to unite. The Koreans have the same race, language and religion but they are badly divided over an ideology. The Germans did too until a decade ago.
I agres with united country. Sri Lanka has never been a unitary state except under the Birtish. This is a fact the pseudo patriots try to hide, to gain political mileage.
In fact we have more thigns to unite than divide. If we concentrate on those lines it will work.
P.S.
According to your theory we are all Bangladeshis. That will unite US, Kemon acchin? :)
Love

When you value your Mother, you would appreciate the value of FEELINGS. Biological connections flow from the Mother. Intellectual connections flow from the Father. Those who depend on family and community must respect their biological elders.
Whether we FEEL we belong in one community is dependent on the work we have done and / or the benefits we have sacrificed. Every voter has the responsibility to FEEL and vote. Often when we think we do not feel. Thinking helps us remove physical limits and merge through our brains / process.
To the extent a Sri Lankan feels connected to another Sri Lankan, Sri Lanka is united. To the extent we deny each other their earned credits - we are divided. If the latter is in the majority it is important to officially divide and rule. There is nothing right or wrong with it. It's a NEED we now have because of the war and the suffering due to the war.
Only those who are ready to do the work - physical and / or mental to know the Truth have the real answers. Others suffer from all the weaknesses of hearsay - used outside the environment where the information is heard.
As for Tamil genes being superior in higher education - you can trace it to their NEED for survival against majority power that was not enough to raise / maintain Sri Lanka at the international level.
