Pharoah
government's APRC proposals has managed to hoodwink the IC, agreed by looking at India's reaction.
agreed
if and when the proposals pass the 2/3 majority,
the indo-lanka accord or the 13th amendment to the constitution is a law, it does not need to pass the parliament again,,
US will not comment any more about giving Tamils a fair solution, like they said previously. they will only say LTTE must renounce 'terrorism', and thats it.
US for some reason hate the tamils,,
on the other hand, attitude of Tamils in Northeast will harden, and become more pro-LTTE, including those who were slightlly unsure before, as they will be certain about gov not giving them a fair solution

it is already happening, srilanka victimized too many Tamils,,

India is also responsible for the death and sufferings of many tamils since 2006.

India urged to support UN resolution on Sri Lanka

New Delhi: Expressing dismay at India's opposition to the draft resolution on Sri Lanka sponsored by the Finland on behalf of European Union at the ongoing United Nations Human Rights Council in Geneva, Asian Centre for Human Rights (ACHR) called upon the government of India to reconsider its position and support the resolution. The Human Rights Council will decide by tomorrow whether to adopt the resolution.

India has been opposing the draft resolution which calls for the respect of human rights and calls upon all parties to put an immediate end to the violations of humanitarian law, and to guarantee access for humanitarian aid to the population as well as to guarantee the protection of humanitarian workers and strengthening of the presence of the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights and to report on these efforts at the Human Rights Council during its third session in November 2006.

acceptable to all communities within the framework of a united Sri Lanka.
by saying this officially , India tactically endorses the unitary form of governing system and sends the wrong signal to Colombo and allows the war to continue to kill tamil civilians in the name of killing the ltte,,

hi freedom1

I'm fine thanks , hope you are doing fine,,

yeah, the TNA was not invited to the APRC's 5 star 6 course meals. the solution suppose to be for the north and east and the TNA is not invited.

it was expected and no hard feelings or surprise for me,,but the act exposes the gosl's duplicity on peacefully solving the national question. the gosl wants to continue with the killings of innocent tamils in the name of killing the ltte in the hope of wiping out the tamils from the island.

what bothers me is, the international community was supportive of this APRC proposal only to allow the war to take place, which killed more than 7000 Tamils since 2006.

now the govt came up with something which was rejected 20 years ago as the APRC proposal,,and i want the APRC sponsors to apologize to the dead victims and their families,,

The pro-Tamil Tigers Tamil National Alliance (TNA), the largest Tamil grouping in parliament, also dubbed the APRC recommendation to stick to the 13th amendment as a 'farce'.

Mavai Senathirajah, a senior TNA MP, told IANS that Rajapaksa had arm-twisted the APRC to submit a report suggesting the implementation of the existing 13th amendment of the constitution and not go beyond it.

'The idea was to create confusion in the political sphere and buy time. Otherwise, what was the need to make the APRC do this, when it was well on its way to drafting a new (quasi federal) devolution package?' Senathirajah asked.

Dear Tiger Lady,

life isn't too bad in SL as long as you are not a Northern Tamil or simply too poor.

Obviously the currently chosen government hasn't delivered much when it comes to developing integration or regular law and order.

This deserves a lot of critcism. But on the other hand i still have huge doubts in your genocide theory. Most likely there are way too many civilians suffering from this awful conflict. But still i haven't found a single Sinhalese who wants all Tamils chased out off SL. I am certain that there are a few haters, but probably not more than among the Tamil population.

But as said, an armed force named LTTE is also responsible for the death of many Sri Lankans.

This is a war between leaders, not between the people.

Dear freedom1

I'm not going to argue over with how wonderful the Sinhalese or the Tamils,, but you have to agree there is a war against the Tamils going on well before the birth of the ltte or it's leader,,

assassinating the MP pararajasingham in the church , MP maheshwaran in the temple and MP raviraj in the HSZ is evident enough to conclude how the Sinhalese love the Tamils,,

this is a genocidal war systematically carried out while hiding behind the sovereignty of the island protected by the UN conventions.

Dear Tiger Lady,

looking back at atrocities committed by both sides is unlikely to provide solutions.

At this time there are no genocidal desires among the vast majority of the Sinhalese population and they are simply tired of militant LTTE.

Don't you think that the age of violent breakaway groups is somehow finished? I can't think of countries where any such activities are getting tolerated.

And i am glad, whenever the majority desires to handle conflicts in front of courts and parliaments.

Tamils are well educated enough as well as having big funds to act and represent their isues within the frames of civilized global law.

With child soldiers, suicide bombers and other often mentioned crime as their main image trademark Tamils will always suffer from being outcasted.

The world is changing fast, but LTTE has failed to adjust to global realities.

Dear freedom1

the point in this article is about the USA and India giving tactical support to the govt to wage war on the Tamils which killed thousands of Tamil men, women and children. the tactical support to the gosl can be stopped and used in a way to bring peace. srilanka has no external enemy or any international disputes but only internal.

i do not agree with the use of child soldiers at all. regarding the suicide missions,, one choosing to kill an enemy by killing one self to take revenge,, i do not know , still i would say, the person should be given an other chance.

what we are doing here is bringing the ltte into this picture to twist the points. talking about the use of child soldiers and sucide missions are irrelevant to the point, what we are doing to bring peace is the most important issue, one can say, if the gosl is not supported then the ltte might run over the govt forces in the north and east.

i would say, let the ltte run over the armed forces, let them have the control of the north and east, let them do what ever they want, but tell them firmly, the ltte's rule will not be recognized and subsequently allow the Tamils to rebel against the ltte's rule.

sooner or later the ltte must make peace with srilanka, for how long are they going to smuggle food and medicine to their areas they control ?? if that continues ,,either the Tamils will rebel against the ltte or the ltte it self has to change it's way.

now the Tamils see the ltte as their savior because the killers are Sinhalese.

we want the Sinhalese killing the Tamils in the name of killing the ltte in the hope of wiping out the Tamils from the north and east and the tactical support by india and the USA to the gosl for this purpose STOPPED.
