Thivya,
1). The Government of Sri Lanka says, it is Sinhala land and you are saying the lands belong to Sri Lanka. You are contradicting your government. Does the word Sri Lankans mean the Sinhalese?
Did the GoSL say that Sri Lanka belongs to the Sinhalese??? Really? Where? Please post the official memo.
2). Did you send a note of objection to the SLA to condemn the portrayal of Tamils as invaders and the capture of Kilinochchi as the conquest of Tamils? You wouldn't do that because you are another Sinhala racist disguising as a peace-loving humanitarian to give pep talks to the Tamils here. Right?
I missed that article. And why would anyone claim the liberation of Kilinochchi a conquest of tamils??? |

From the audio part I can hear that no one wants to handle the dead bodies. Someone asking them to lift by legs as well.
Jeez.. a tractor load of dead invincibles.

AussieBoy,
Here is that article, Do you think this is the way to win the hearts and minds of Tamil people.
Http://www.army.lk/morenews.php?id=19162
Our reference here is to an article published on the official website of the SLA, on the day of the victory in Killinochchi. Titled History Repeats Itself as Kilinochchi Awaits Liberation, the article makes wide ranging comparisons between a war mentioned in Sinhala-Buddhist mythology-cum-history, and the current conflict between the LTTE and the Sri Lankan state. According to the SLA, the war now is to regain Sinhala land that was illegally occupied by foreign invaders.
It asserts that the entire island belongs to the Sinhalese and that throughout history the Sinhalese have had to fend off foreign invaders. Using Sinhala names for areas in the Tamil Homeland, it seeks to portray the LTTE as an invading force encroaching on the Sinhalese' land. EVEN THE TAMILS WHO SUPPORT THE SINHALA STATE ARE NOT SPARED. :))

This is carnage. Freaking LTTE better surrender and save these young lives. Absolutely horrible.
On a second thought, this may be an old video. Not sure.

Thivya,
Why are you arguing with history?? The Sinhalese were in Sri Lanka at the time when a tamil army arrived and a conflict had taken place. The article that you provided says that, before the conflict was for land, and the people of the country had to fight for the protection of that land... similar to now, the people of the land have to fight for the protection of the land. It's for the procession of the land.
It asserts that the entire island belongs to the Sinhalese and that throughout history the Sinhalese have had to fend off foreign invaders. Using Sinhala names for areas in the Tamil Homeland, it seeks to portray the LTTE as an invading force encroaching on the Sinhalese' land.
You are the one that believes this current war is between the Sinhalese and the tamils, while the Sri Lankans are fighting the LTTE for the land. You conclude that 'it asserts that the entire island belongs to the Sinhalese', etc. which is your own conclusions, and not the conclusions of the article. The article draws similarities between the old conflict to the new conflict, because both are for the people of the land, fighting for the protection of the land. Whatever else you conclude is your own problem.
But yes, I know it hurts you a little bit, because the article does try and blow away your theories that the tamils originated in SL or that tamils were in Sri Lanka before the sinhalese... but because it says that your theories are BS, doesn't mean that you can conclude unwritten things like that it says that SL belongs to the sinhalese, etc. Those parts are just part of your vivid imagination. |

Dewey,
So, do you think the capture of Kilinochchi is conquering Tamils and re claiming the Sinhala land. It means, in your view the Tamils are the invaders and they have been occupying the Sinhala land from the Chola invasion, finally you Sinhalese went and defeated the Tamils in Kilinochchi and re claimed your Sinhala land, right?
The SL Army website asserts that by posting the article on the day of Kilinocchi victory. I guess that is the view of Dewey, the peace-loving SRI LANKAN. :))) LOL

No never said. Please dont assume things.
I was referring to the part
Sinhalese have had to fend off foreign
in your posting which in my opinion is a true statement.
I never said the island belongs to sinhalese. |
