of what comes next and what needs to be done .THE arpc
were all to con the world as the ltte said from very beginning and proven right .NOW the time to show the world
that tamil's will fight to defend tamil elam. |

Tough. That's democracy. Majority rules.
not with those discriminating policies,,
Besides, how do you know that Tamils don't recognize the government if given the chance? thats why the ltte is there,,if they recognized the govt, the Tamils do not need the service of the ltte,,
If I remember correctly the LTTE did not allow the tamils in the North and East to vote..... Or do we just have to go with what the self appointed, sole representative for life, of all 3 Million Sri Lankan tamils, Mr V. Prabakaran has to say?
what if allowed??

You're talking about simple majoritarian rule, not true democracy.
The CFA withdrawal will bring nothing new. As the SLA push into Vanni, the LTTE will retaliate in the south. When push comes to shove, the LTTE will resort back to guerilla tactics. The war will end when colombo realizes (yet again) that the conflict cannot be solved by military means. The only problem is this time, the casualties on either side, and civilian casualties are (in total) expected to reach the 50,000+ range.
Of course if anyone in the south thinks they're safe from the conflict (including the warmongers). They're sadly mistaken, and withdrawal from the CFA will only give further justification for the LTTE to let loose in the south. |

Sorry old chap you only got a small part of that equation correct, you see Democracy actually entails the following:
Majority rule is a means for organizing government and deciding public issues it is not another road to oppression. Just as no self-appointed group has the right to oppress others, so no majority, even in a democracy, should take away the basic rights and freedoms of a minority group or individual.
Minorities -- whether as a result of ethnic background, religious belief, geographic location, income level, or simply as the losers in elections or political debate -- enjoy guaranteed basic human rights that no government, and no majority, elected or not, should remove.
Minorities need to trust that the government will protect their rights and self-identity. Once this is accomplished, such groups can participate in, and contribute to their country's democratic institutions.
Among the basic human rights that any democratic government must protect are freedom of speech and expression freedom of religion and belief due process and equal protection under the law and freedom to organize, speak out, dissent, and participate fully in the public life of their society.
Democracies understand that protecting the rights of minorities to uphold cultural identity, social practices, individual consciences, and religious activities is one of their primary tasks

Has your Sinhala terror state managed to adhere to ANY of these principles? The answer is a resounding NO!

No ponit in surrendering. LTTE followers have no motherland to run. Better to die by GOSL great forces than starving in TamilNadu
