Sri Lanka says 'Shut Up' to Tamils. Are we to?


It is funny how the International Community can be bullied by a tiny Island country Sri Lanka when they attempt to finally listen to Tamils on long and outstanding ethnic cleansing of Tamils.

The legal statue this high commissioner used is for teachers not to teach students based on race, hate, political partisan. What is accused in this letter is against ‘Freedom of Speech’. People have the right to discuss a topic that the world is now focusing on. The high commissioner of Sri Lanka either does not understand these legal statue he mentioned or confused or intentionally abusing with any other situations. It in any case does not mean of discussing a true situation that is happening with proof in media and talks among world leaders, politicians, human rights agencies, United Nations while the topic of ‘Sri Lanka’ is spreading to be number one on the list for it’s human rights violations and media black out. I believe by this letter he is assuring Sri Lanka is absolutely ready take responsibilities for human rights, genocide law including other pending accused legal charges, is ready listen to tamils for a political solution.

This in the interpretation that in his letter legal statue quote says that pupils should have balanced presentation of opposing views. Is the government in Sri Lanka allowing Tamils, Tamil Diaspora and specially journalist to have a balanced presentation on separate state?
This letter clearly states the clarification of what LTTE’s stand. The high commissioner of Sri Lanka representing Sri Lanka states in paragraph three saying UK has listed LTTE under terrorism law while he also clarifies LTTE is only a fighting force. He further says in his letter that LTTE is fighting for a separate state for ethnic Tamils in north & east of Sri Lanka. This does not fall under terrorism category.

Mr. Bush has un-educatedly and blindly linked all organizations under terrorism category. Mr. Obama, an educated world leader, has a different view. His view is that ‘One man’s terrorism is another man’s freedom fighter’. I guess Sri Lanka now accepts LTTE as freedom fighters and willing discuss a balanced presentation.

So the high commissioner thinks TAG and BTF are front organizations of LTTE. So what is he trying to do against Tamils, Tamil Diaspora, journalist of all communities within Sri Lanka and around the world, and western diplomats who think Sri Lanka is acting state terrorism and genociding Tamils. Isn’t his and his government’s believe in balanced presentation?

The situation in Sri Lanka is worse than what has happened in any other countries charged on ethnic cleansing. Has the world stopped to realize Sinhalese governments will at any time charge any Tamils within Sri Lanka in the term of terrorism and in the name of LTTE.
Are we Tamils to watch and keep dead silence?
