RE:SL and India
by Rani on Jun 03, 2007 09:43 PM

Jayasurya, I am not Tamil. u assume I am Tamil just because I say Tamils are discriminated. I can however speak Tamil but i am north indian. You obviously been brainwashed by the SL govt owned newspapers of Lanka. Lankapage often does state Tamils killing Sinhala and not LTTE killing Sinhala.

You obviously kept quiet about the language problem after I gave proof of a language commission but being SLankan, you didn't know this. This shows your lack of knowledge of your local politics. I was in a position to analyze Lankan politics for a paper I did for a class. 83 was an organized mob u say. An organized mob by the govt. Why didn't Jeyawardana call the army for four days (or maybe longer), while Tamils were being killed.

Why is it that materials are provided immediately for Sinhalas who are displaced but not for Tamils who are displaced. Your govt is even willing to build expensive bunkers for Sinhalas. These are facts from Lankapage and dailynews (which is govt run). I am not saying all Sinhala are bad but ur govt has discriminated the Tamils from 1940s to now. If it wasn't for some ordinary Sinhalas, more Tamils would have died. But Tamils cannot live as citizens of that country hoping there will be a Sinhala citizen around everytime to save them from a mob. Please stop looking at this problem as a Sinhala but as a human. Look at the human cost of what your govt does (and the human cost of what LTTE does). You need peace. Give equal rights. Its the right thing to do.
