Balakumaran is very outright in his decisions and analysis. The current situation in the country is so obsessed in hipocricy and lies it feels that Mahinda has lost control of governing the country instead he has openly declared war on tamils. Mahinda is going to fail miserably because the patience of tigers has gone overboard and the attack is imminent. No power on earth can hinder the tigers to represent the tamils and win Eelam for the tamils. Eelam being currently a shadow government with full powers to provide the government tamils deserve the sinhala thuggerism cannot put a stop to their pledge of UDI that will shortly follow and to drive out all the forces that would like to sabotage it.Only friends of tamil Eelam will be entertained and enemies will be destroyed.

The time had come for Sinhala state to change the constitution to accomodate Tamil political will. Thus, so far the sinhala state is marred with broken promises to the Tamils. It is matter of time, the impotent political will of Southern society will see its consequences. to rather have a friendly neighbour than a broken and unhappy family.

The current mood of the international community must be utilised to seize a long-lasting settlement – starting with Geneva in April (2nd round) The Sinhalese
are now ready to concede more than ever before. The int’l community should be asked to rein in the recalcitrant JVP-JHU-PNM, all of whom will lose their relevance if there is a settlement to the National Issue. LTTE must repair their
relationship with India. The Tamil people must go back to their homes, their livelihoods and they must regain their dignity and freedom they enjoyed prior to
the 1980s. This is the challenge before all those who have taken up the noble cause to fight for Tamil rights, justice for Tamils and a “new future” for theTamil people in Sri Lanka.

The government of srilanka is giving amnesty to army desrters. The current statistics of deserters is running into the 85,000 mark and more are still running away. With all the good wage of around 15,000 and all the perks still the desertion continues. In other countries army desertion is not heard of and if at all it may be very low. But the reason for these desertions are many fold . There may be peace loving army men who don’t want to stick around with a corrupt and evil force may be one reason. The government policies may be another reason. The army big guns may be forcing them to practice force on people and properties which many men cannot take it up. If tigers can build up their forces the army is against it but they can’t keep their men in tact with all the incentives they offer. I think the army is going to lose it all when tigers start to attack. Only God can interfere and protect our nation.

There are Tamils , Sinhalese and Muslims living in North and East of Sri Lanka without paying a single cent to the Tamil Tigers. It’s the pure Sinhala mentality, not to think beyond the limits.

The history of Sri Lanka — Buy corrupted Tamil politicians or corrupted Tamil criminal and use them to oppress Tamils since 1918.
The Sri Lankan politicians never understand what is freedom. They do not have experiences. They were slaved over 500 years and they do not know what is freedom.
JVP live in juncle how do they know how to govern a country.
If the Sri Lankan could not eliminate corruption in all level, how can they resolve the Tamil conflicts.
Only way Tamils can get freedom, fighting — Non- violent all over Sri Lanka. Do not expect LTTE fight for it. We would like to see over 500 thousands Tamils should be in jail for freedom of Tamils like Ghandi did it.
LTTE is fighting and protecting Tamils, normal Tamil watching TV.
All Tamils should participate in freedom of Tamils. Every day they shoud fight until they get freedom or stay in jail. Like South African Mandala was in Jail for 25 years for freedom. But we never see any Tamils in jail for Freedom.

LTTE is not speaking for any Tamils..all they trying to do it get some power. If they care about tamils why would they ask to disarm their own karuna because he is not with them. Also read the Human rights watch (HRW) report how the LTTE is harrasing their own people specially in Canada and UK. Also think of the fact Tamils live all around SL without any problems, but not a Tamil nor Sinhalease can live in the North East without paying LTTE. After all they are terrorists and they will always be.

The diaspora community talks big from wherever they are ,without having gone through / going through the torture and trauma of the political situation of the country. We should be happy that, at least somebody is speaking for the Tamils. Otherwise we are nowhere now. But hardly anybody understands it. Why can’t we get together and act together?
