What happened? What should happen next in Srilanka for Tamils ?


Everyone in Tamilnadu has jumped into a chorus for taking action against Lanka for violating human rights during the final phases of civil war. It has become a habit to shout and forget later. No one really cared when the things were bad during the civil war with then CM Karunanidi threatening a fast until death. See the below image and you will understand the drama.

It didn’t even last a day. Later when he was asked about this episode, he was good enough to dodge by informing that Centre and Rajapaksha cheated him. He didn’t have any guts to come out of UPA since he and his family was under spotlight for 2G spectrum case. Now for narrow political gains for upcoming 2014 general elections he and his son is playing a drama again.

With the death of Prabhakaran, one of my hero’s war came to an end with still some of my fellow srilankan tamils surviving. But now the focus should be on how to find solution and how the Tamils should be integrated with sinhalese. Its very foolish to still rely on the past and we should be careful enough so that we won’t forget the lessons learnt from the past.

Let’s come to the point on why LTTE assassinated Rajiv, our late PM sent IPKF and in the course of time our soldiers lost their morality by raping and doing all sorts of non sense. There was violence in LTTE but they didn’t behave like their African counterparts. Thats the reason they were able to sustain their fight for so long. Angry with the Indian soldiers LTTE assassinated Rajiv. They lost their support in India.

My support to LTTE is always limited because if I support them i don’t have any moral right for supporting India’s cause in Kashmir. I’m first an Indian and later a Tamilian. Support the cause of  Tamils within the unified framework of Srilanka. A healthy neighbor is good for India. Gone are the days were a person can board Boatmail from Chennai to Rameshwaram and get a ferry to Mannar and catch a train to Colombo.
