Sandra Jordan and Siobhan Sinnerton, go back to UK and tell the whole world how the GOSL stopped you from finding the truth. Tell the whole world how they are hiding their human rights violations from the media. The western world will definitely believe you.

I think this is due to the channel 4 documentary.
Last channel 4 documentary about suicide bombers.they have used the video footage supplied by the LTTE!
Good luck to these cheap sods,
Nobody should glorify terrorists,their activities or their involvements but this team is from BBC so they actually may wont to know the ground situation.But better wait till GOSL reach Wanni.

Hope that makes you feel better...

When you catch a bicycle hora that fellow says there is a motor bike hora and go catch him. So he things stealing cycle is not a big crime.!!

What's the point of pointing fingers at LTTE when we ourselves are part of the killings and cause for the human sufferings. What is the difference between GOSL and LTTE ? We should first correct ourselves and then point fingers at others. Enough of this shooting in the dark and name calling and always finding fault with everyone else. Take a break and look at what's happening in real! This is no big match to cheer up teams!

See how they have reported it. They painted the role of the Sri Lankan journalist (while hiding her Tamil name) as someone who accompanied the other two British women, when she actually is the PRODUCER!!

This itself is enough for any sensible person to conclude the correctness of the decision made by the SLA.


Muchalinda, you are the worst thing i ever saw.

Are you telling that SLA was correct to force the journalist team to leave Jaffna because the producer was Tamil ??

You are the typical RACIST I HATE.
It's why i think Eelam is useful. To don't allow such racism in our soil.

Sri Lanka is what China was few years ago, someone progress other regress. No more freedom of talk. No more freedom to REPORT. But most unfortunate, no more freedom to be a TAMIL.

Thats why the Sinhala army sent back these two Britishes and the Sri Lankan producer (not Sri Lankan, but Tamil for MUCHALINDA).

Well. I feel more and more that Tamils and Sinhalas can't live under the same house.

Karul,
there is no room for any racism in the civilized world! but but when dealing with blood thirsty monkeys who sack their own cubs to save their ass,I think most probably GOSL had made the correct decision.
pp
'Uncivilized'
Does LTTE use children for terror activities!
Does LTTE use suicide bomber!
Does LTTE use civilians as human shields!
Does LTTE use pregnant mother for suicide missions!
Has LTTE taken away the fundamental wright to vote of the people living in un cleared areas in the last presidential election.
Has LTTE jeopardize the last Geneva peace talks!
Has LTTE made money out of British Credit car cloning in America & Thailand!
Has LTTE make money out of the Biggest International phone card scam!'in UK'
Has LTTE control the drug trafficking in South East Asia!
Has LTTE run the one of the world biggest people trafficking racket!
Has LTTE invest large sums of money to get the Parliament approval for the 'Action group for sri lankan Tamils' which was later rejected!
Has LTTE Paid Large sums of money & perks For Preiath Liyanage head of BBC sinhala to articulate the Tamil net reports!
Does LTTE make money from extortion!
Many more to add to prove LTTE is run by uncivilized mega maniacs who does not have any sense of peace.
If anybody wont to know how LTTE leader care for their people,just pop in to Balasinghams house that tells you all!

To defeat terrorism you have to follow either Israeli tactics or Sri Lankan Army Tactics?

see our politicians showing colours to 'we Lankans' and going and trying to lick ...and getting 'Noondi'


Sundayleader is no one bastard who supports Tamils and Ranil. Sundayleader never saw the dark side of Ranil?s administration, CFA or LTTE. Hence do not quote Sundayleader.

In politics there is nothing call getting 'Noondi'
different issues handle different in ways.
In politics there are no everlasting enemies or everlasting friends. Except LTTE our eternal enemy
It is true that we get loans or assistance from foreign countries but we can?t allow them to enter the country and make documentaries that filter only dreadful things happening in the country.
Who are the producers of this documentary? Some Tamils
Do you think that all these documentaries are made with natural and usual events? Most of the documentaries are fabricated to get the original subject matter.
Any one can make a documentary showing dark side of Colombo 7.
And also at the beginning Tamil producers never says they are taking this documentary team to Wanni. To deceive the Govt. first they visit Jaffna then to Wanni to meet that Fat PIG VP.
What fight are you talking about?

Yes Govt. says Jaffna is under control and people having enough food and medicine.
My quoting 'FIGHTING' means taking whole north in to account.

Commonsense 'Do you buy that at Lakehouse' or 'mariya kade'

No! From what you have written.

These foreign NEWS people always after some incidence to make a documentary or a news article for them to fill their magazines. If they find it is not natural they fabricate it to look natural.

In the other hand producers are Tamils do you expect us to have an unbiased documentary?

KURAL,

It seems you have some issues with reading English. I did not say that SLA was correct about what they did because the producer is a Tamil. Instead, what I said was that SLA seems correct with what they did given how Tamilnet tried to cover up the name of its producer. I cannot help if you cannot see the obvious difference between the meanings of the two sentences, but an English teacher will.

As for your thoughts about the usefulness of Eelam, what remains a fact is that people like you will find Eelam useful regardless of the acts of individuals like me or establishments like SLA.

Journalists can make hundreds of documentaries. Micheal Moore the fat bloke is known a radical investigative journalist, who made a documentary about Iraq War and many other topics.

Recently a documentary about Micheal Moore has been made, called 'Manufacturing Dissent', by Melnyck and Caine, Canadians. It reveals how Micheal Moore use stinking techniques in his documentary making.

Frankly, Journalist as other creatures cannot be trusted. (That may well be the reason why US army is using something called embedded journalism. May be not) Recently, I have come across several documentaries with questionable techniques. Mostly these documentaries rely on word of mouth, something told by someone on camera against the word of authorities. For example, the reports from Burma for the last few weeks are more close to gossip than news. One report about Zimbabwe dissent living in Namibia interviews a few people, one is clearly a person running after a refugee visa. It is not clear to me why they are doing this, other than interfering with internal affairs of foreign countries.

Mucha,

In other words, Tamilnet always assume, any involvement of Tamils in a project like this is directly related to an act of terrorism, so that they hide the names. That's a very interesting observation.

Reminds if the British BBC journalist who got shot (wounded) while crossing No mans land sometime ago. Blamed the SLA for shooting her despite repeated requests not to cross the lines. SHe tried crossing under cover of darkness and the sentries shot her thinking her to be LTTE, but later the news article carried that news as if the SLA deliberately shot her.
