Well said Anita Pratap. Excellent neutral point of view. Only way for Sri Lanka to be peaceful is to treat Tamil people as Sri Lankans and not like animals.

Tamils live all over the world. There has been no problems except in Sri Lanka. This is because discrimination and racism are institutionalized in the Sri Lankan ruling practices.

Not really how many Tamil are abducted and killed right under the security forces. There are Sri Lankan soldiers at every intersection in Colombo and how could they not see these abductions taking place.

In the last two ... ( 1 month ago by stephan1234)

In the last two years, government forces have been implicated in: * Hundreds of extrajudicial killings, including of humanitarian workers * Hundreds of enforced disappearances * Arbitrary arrests and long-term detentions without indictment or trial * Widespread torture of detainees * Forcibly returning internally displaced persons to unsafe areas * Restrictions on media and threats to journalists * Complicity with the recruitment of child soldiers by Karuna militia

I am not saying ... ( 1 month ago by stephan1234)

I am not saying this I got this from the Human Rights Watches website. Just because someone talks bad about the Government of Sri Lanka doesn't make them an LTTE supporter. Grow up. Just google "Say no to Sri Lanka". There is a reason why U.N. Members decided not elect Sri Lanka to the Human Rights Council because of these gross human rights violations.

According to latest ... ( 1 month ago by saminea1)

According to latest report from UN workers in Sri Lanka, the government sponsored and supported the violence of Karuna -Tamils.
At least they have condoned the violence because there has been no criminal proceedings against these groups.
If the state terrorism of Taliban-Afganistan and Serbia were stopped, then why not the same should happen with Sri Lanka?
If Sri Lanka is a democracy then why does it have a minority working to promote US and India's interest, instead of majoritY's?

Why do u want to plead by running the same fucking tape over and over again. The world has stopped believing in cretins like your self. Instead, the world has now come to grips with the reality. They now very clearly are seeing your true selves as THE MOST RUTHLESS TERRORISTS EVER!!
