There are so many Atrocities, Injustice casused by the Sinhala rulers to the Eelam Tamils , Indian Tamils in the island of Ceylon( aka Lanka )

It is best to conduct a UN sponsored Referendum in which the Eelam Tamils can Vote whether their areas ( North and Eastern Parts ) should be with united srilanka or a free state..

the solution for this Tamil issue is

One Island – Two Nations

One Island – Two Federal Nations ( like USC United States of Ceylon – Sinhala and TAmil states ) -both administrated seperately.

or least solution is like India

One Country – but with two states ( Tamils and Sinhala ) where Land, Police,Education, Jobs given to each area.

Boycott Lanka for their Killings of Innocent Civilians

No, I mean they don’t blow themselves up into a million pieces, send pregnant suicide bombers, put bombs on buses and trains and roadsides, slaughter non-Tamils, ethnically cleanse whole areas of non-Tamils, engage in credit card fraud or gang crime, or celebrate terrorism. The leaders of Indian Tamils in Sri Lanka have hardly ever used racism and Tamil nationalism to goad their people into violence. SL Tamils and Indian Tamils are two different people in my opinion. The SL Tamils used to, and continue to look down on Indian Tamils with disdain, even refusing to work in hospitals in the upcountry because they had to touch the “lesser” Indian Tamils. What’s ironic is that the Jaffna Tamil folk had to flee to India and live in refugee camps while they used to call Indian Tamils kallathonis.

Indi – You seem like a conscientious guy. How is it that you refer to the activities funded by the ‘vengeful diaspora’ as ‘terror’ but the experiences of these Tamils who had to flee Sri Lanka as a ‘terrible injustice’? What’s the difference between a ‘terrible injustice’ and ‘terror’? Is a terrible injustice like terror-lite?

“Even in Sri Lanka upcountry Tamils are much nicer, kinder and simpler folk ”

You mean they knew their place amongst their Sinhalese masters. One wonders why then some of these ‘nicer, kinder and simpler folk’ had to flee Sri Lanka in the first place. Bad weather was it?

Both the people you met were a different sort of Tamil to Jaffna Tamils. The ‘vengeful diaspora’ as you put is made up almost entirely of the Jaffna breed and their hangers on. Even in Sri Lanka upcountry Tamils are much nicer, kinder and simpler folk than the so-called “cultured” and “intellectual” folks from the peninsula.
