Special force,
How ru bro..Good to see u..wow so your recalled and just went back to Colombo..were you reporting all these days from a foreign soil..I was under the impression your from Sri Lanka..well we hope to get some information soon..since your recalled does that mean special force/sl force guys are in trouble!!
well hope not..we love everyone!!

Revy,

I like Vini and I have no problem with his views as his anger is towards LTTE which is acceptable and not against tamils. I like Vini a lot..and i think he is a reasonable guy but Ruwani attacks Tamils and she even wanted all tamils to be put on tire and burnt..so i have no regard for her..she even reported her neighbor who is Tamil (in Dehilwela) to the Police saying they are LTTE supporters cos they had a party and had friends over at their place..I thought that was poor taste..specially when she just became a mother..anyway the best way to deal with her is to ignore her..

Berty anna, they are both cut of the same cloth, just maybe vini is a little bit better than Ruwani, but have you not read his posts? He keeps wanting Tamils visiting SL to be caught at the airport by Karuna/SLA and thrown into the sea etc...

Not quite as mad as ruwani but close enough.

But as Sansare said we need their views too for better or for worse, so it would be dull without them that is for sure.

Also i dont know whether you foilks know buyt there are talks going on between the jvp and the unp...ground breaking and shocking to say the least...!

this is one of the greatest news i have heard in recent times and am a very very happy man...

looks like the country is heading towords a great period ahead with political differences shed and a new ere dawned...with concensus reached regerding many iussues...

its a big loss for the jvpthat nandana departed...i have had greatest respect fo mr guynathilake for his indepth and substaced political and economic acumen...

im not suprised at all that a man in the calibre of nandana left the jvp and embarked on a journey wich will do justice to his vision...!

more on this later...!

Revy thambi,
since they are not here to defend themselves we better get moving with our discussions. I think sansare is a very reasonable person to talk to and his views on certain issues are excellant.

Thambi we should also not forget there are some tamils who also go to the extreme!! it is a nice balance.

Berty,
How are you Bro,

I again post what I post to Revy,

'But, Revy, they are also important, they represent another angle of true feeling we have in Sri Lanka.
We must read, face, and talk these realities...'

and we have to deal with all kind of feelings when we go to peace.

Can you remember in Ghandi film,
how hindu-muslim violence started when they apart?

GOSL and LTTE or Tamil leaders have the responsibility to control feelings of these people and guide them.

I agree, GOSL must do more...
never enough, till peace comes!

Subject: Fw: A view of Sri Lanka by a non Sri Lankan - As Sri Lankans What do we have to say !

Pls forward this to all Sri Lankans who truly loves Sri Lanka.
By Jerald Owens:

I am an American from the midwest and am a leading member of the US Republican party's mid west chapter.
Sri Lanka has always been a paradise for me and my wife. When we visit Sri Lanka we are always astonished at the simple uncomplicated way of life in Sri Lanka. A country trying to survive like a small ship in a storm. A country that has such a civilized and a poetic past, scenery and unsophisticated natural beauty that we silently weep when we hear of the brutal murders carried out by the nazi type but uneducated, uncivilized, selfish band of thugs in hiding in Wanni, that has brought terror and fear to every peace loving man, woman and child in this little paradise.After associating with Sri Lankans in US as well as in Sri Lanka I have gotten used to enjoying your spicy food.So whereever we travel we look for spicy food. Even though I live in the US I visit Canada quite regularly.

I travel quite often to Toronto and was very surprised to notice the Tamil terrorist operated restaurants, supermarkets, moviehouses and numerous strip mall type businesses openly advertising support for the LTTE or Tamil Ellam as they are called.

In fact on one my trip to Toronto, a Sri Lankan friend of mine and his wife (a Sinhalese couple who are now US citizens) took me to a very busy Tamil take-a-way. They first tried to talk to him in Tamil and when my friend did not answer (because he does't even speak Sinhala) they refused to serve him. Finally I had to make the order.

Spineless, gutless, Liberals (and gays and lesbians too) tend to tolerate these terrorists for their political gain. So the Liberals in Canada allowed them a free reign. In the USA President Bush's policies and his successive foreign secretaries have brought considerable pressure on Canada, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand and Western Europe to ban LTTE bacause we in the US know who these criminals are.

In fact Norway is slowly but steadily bowing down to US pressure because we in the US have a president who does what he beleives and who believes in what he does. We also know that the LTTE does not represent the Tamil population in Sri Lanka. The banning of LTTE and its affiliated fund raisers are just the beginning and is the tip of the iceberg. It is the shape of things to come.

We are also aware of Mr. Jayantha Gnanakone and his group of terrorist henchman who while living in California have been organisng the tamils in the US. Very soon you in Sri Lanka will hear of Jayantha on the run. Our forum has gathered sufficient data about Jayantha's activities that will make him want to run back to Sri Lanka.

The LTTE and its members will be hunted down where ever they hide. We in the midwest have been greatly appreciative of your President. A true statesman at last in Sri Lanka.

At last, please help us to update our list of organisations supporting the LTTE. If you readers have any information regarding LTTE fundraisers, stores, supermarkets, movie houses, schools, airline travel agencies, video rental stores, banks or any other please write to me. I am compiling a master list of people and companies supporting this band organisation. send your info to Jerald Owens, P.O.Box 2018, Sioux City, IA 51101-2018.

I wish to finish my comments on a historical note. One of my Sri Lankan friends once told me that from ancient Sri Lanka times a group of people called Veddahs lived in Wanni the present hideout of the LTTE's leader (he has an unpronounceable name). The Veddahs apparently were uncivilized and never went anywhere in life.

Well the self proclaimed leader of the LTTE too is not going anywhere. You cannot cheat all the people all the time. He will be hunted down till someday soon he will be on his hands and knees begging for his life and for forgiveness from the tamils, the sinhalese and the muslims of Sri Lanka that he has terrorised for so long.

Thank you for your time

Pls forward this to all Sri Lankans who truly loves Sri Lanka
