just said:
the war bagan as a discrimination to minority.but the terrorist used it to execute their plans.
Correction!! minority began RIOTS... the WAR began as a part terrorists plans!!!
one thing is for sure. no common sinhalese, tamil, or any other group has problems with each other.
Yes! as long as this nation is NOT divided and everybody think as a SRI LANKAN and everybody get what they deserve!
currently wats happening is a bit different. all governments ruled before had used all the excuses now they have to do somethin. so they've started taking at terrorists.
So is it a bad thing? finally a government has realized what to do.. Sri Lanka is governed by a constitution and there's no rule in it for negotiation with terrorists, however there are rules in it to protect countries sovereignty from any threat!
Sri Lanka's majority which is over 70% Sinhalese are under the threat of terrorism and losing their motherland and government has to address the problem of the majority first! Tell me where this doesn't apply?
ts good for now cos its the trend. patriotism is "the word" now. but now minorities feel more descriminated (not LTTE). their democratically elected leaders are neglected. no one to voice their rights. media is clearly sensored...etc etc.
so they trying to to clean the country by cleaning the wound but not looking at wat coused it.sometimes i'm afraid they letting the couse grow.we have never come across a win of war so we dont know wat happens after that. they reason for the war was whether its tamil, sinhalese or any others is in hearts.dangerouse thing is you cant see that. unless politicians or people in majority understand this achieving peace is a dream.
Every government has ups and downs, tell me one government at least in SL, that went smoothly, tell me 1 govt. that never hiked prices and etc.... at least there's some progress now.. Patriotism should have been "the word" long time ago, I'm sad that its meaning still somewhat in the dark!
How does being patriotic help discriminate the minority? besides.. if minority were more patriotic than power hungry, most of these issues could have been solved much easily in the past and PRESENT!!
Tell me what unique issues that apply only to Tamils in SL that does not apply to the Tamil in rest of the world?
We Sinhalese consist of more than 70% of the country, we are the driving force of this countries economy, we are the major force that contributes... and we deserve our freedom, our rights, our country in return!!!
People question the democracy of Sri Lanka,
Likewise Sri Lanka's minority deserves their rights, we deserve ours too!! If tamils doesn't get what they deserve that's mainly due to the fact that the whole Tamil politics in SL is unbalanced or unstable, why? Because of terrorism!! so what do we take out first? TERRORISM of course!!!
Tamil majority is in North and NE, without addressing LTTE issue how to address its people's issues?
And take North & North East out of the equation for second, How about Colombo and up country Tamils under govt.? what discrimination do they get? Do we not have proper education Tamils in South? Govt. services are not open for them?
I've seen worse..... for an example here in Malaysia there's no secondary schools even for Tamils.. they have no option other than either attend to a Private School which will cost a fortune and only the rich can afford or continue learning in Malay! Is that the situation in SL too?
Go to Wellawatte, Collpetty area..... Tamil business are booming... when we go to those shops, some don't even talk Sinhalese (or pretend

), if Tamils do not get what they deserve that's what Tamil politicians are for!
So first blame them and then the govt. , because govt. is Sinhalese and they have their own agenda and duty for the majority of people!!
And you seems to have stepped on your own tail.. govt. is fighting terrorists, as long as terrorists are powerful they will continue to terrorize people.. only a weak would negotiate.... this we have seen in past how LTTE behave!! and remember LTTE still not banned in SL, doors are open anytime when they are ready to lay down arms!
