even though i dont blv in astrology i have to accept the prediction that SRI LANKAN ISLAND WILL NO LONGER BE A ONE COUNTRY-OFFICIALLY- B4 THE JUNE IN NEXT YEAR….

To me it is a ploy to divert the world attention.

I spoke to a retired doctor from Kandy and he told me that they test the urine sample to confirm the pregnancy and many clinics don’t even do the physicial check until after 30weeks.

DID this woman provided a urine sample of some one and made her a true pregy?

I am some what puzzled to see the investigation how far she was carrying since one news said 5 months and she pretends to be 9month on the fatal day

Could this woman faked the real pregnant woman’s ID and papers and impersonate as the other woman. It will be a good hollywood movie if we know the truth with facts.

recent co-chair decision and EU decision seems to me they were some what happy to see the TOP SOLDIER confined to where he is than where he was as a mode to end the cycle of violence.

If a government cannot or refuses to do that, then it is clearly illegitimate!! Surely the Sri Lankan government have repeatedly proven themselves illegitimate in their policies toward non-Sinhalese over some time now.

How much more evidence of failed governance does one need?

If the Sri Lankans government can demonstrate legitimacy, then any desire for Tamil separation will evaporate.

However if the Sri Lankan government is determined to prove that it’s incapable of providing good governance, then the Tamils will obviously get their separate state.

Are there any brilliant lawyers around who will expose not only the Sri Lankans but also the US/UK governments for the crimes against humanity they committed in providing the means to prolong the genocide in Sri Lanka? The dumb yanks & poms should not be let off the hook!!

According to informed sources:

Mass murderer Sanath Fonseka is being kept in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), more than 48 hours after he was admitted to the Colombo National Hospital with serious injuries, hospital sources said.

Around 12 surgeons worked around the clock and performed three different major operations to maintain him in a sate at which he could be medically classified as being ‘alive’, sources added.

However, his actual health can not be confirmed for at least another 12 hours, a hospital nurse said.

Medical experts told this reporter that Fonseka’s injuries seem to be severe and that even if he survives “he may have to be tube fed for the rest of his life”. “He would most likely be paralysed from the hip below,” experts added.

To tell you the truth, I condemn both privately and publicly, some of the mindless and brutal violence by the LTTE, including its attacks on innocent Sinhalese people. I also know the LTTE leaders have been callous toward many Tamil civilians in their quest for power.

But the recent violence by the Tigers came in the context of continuing paramilitary and military intelligence murders–the almost daily killings of civil society leaders and innocent Tamil people, the rapes, the beheadings, etc., in the North and East. And the Govt, the President and the Army commander brazenly denied their hands in this murderous spree–even though it is common knowledge even among the Sinhalese that it is a shadow war by government. It was inexcusable and I think the suicide bombing, despite the worldwide condemnation, should have ssent the message to Rajapakse that this couldn’y go on.

Instead, he goes to Trinco and bombs and shells, killing and displacing Tamil civilians.

I thought if the Govt. had refrained from giving carte blanche to its intelligence operatives and paramilitaries to go on a a killing spree, there was still a chance for the ceasefire to hold. Politically Rajapakse’s
alliance with the JVP/JHU and his emphasis on “Unitary” state will make it impossible for Tamils to entertain any thoughts of cooperating with the government–after all these years of struggle and sacrifice, the Tamil people need to get something that is much more than the Federalism practiced in India–at least something like a confederation. So the SL State will have to face painful consequences for its intrasigence on this. I am not repeating the LTTE’s stand here–this is my stand and the stand of countless Tamil people.

I faced a lot of SL military atrocities in the North East in the late eighties and nineties, and I cannot see how any self-respecting Tamil can support anyone allied with the SL government.

You cannot make LTTE’s actions and callousness an excuse in not ensuring security of Tamil civilians; If you want violence to stop, pressure the thugs who are around Rajapakse to put a stop to all murderous activity by SLA and paramilitaries. Then the Tigers and Tamils might respond more positively. However, Tamil experience has been that we cannot trust any Sinhala government.

The Americans hated Soviet communism. So did Winston Churchill. Hitler claimed in the early 1930s that his main reason for entering politics was to put an end to communism.

And the Soviets hated the Americans too.

Roosevelt, Churchill & Hitler had much in common: their common enemy was Soviet Communism.

Now the question for you Mr Dharma: So why did Churchill & Roosevelt finally ally themselves with Stalin in the war against Hitler?

If you can see the answer to this question, you should then be able to understand why the LTTE enjoys so much popular support.
