That’s absolutely right, Sunila….wiping out Prabhakaran and the Tigers will not solve the issues faced by the Tamil people. Infact, the way things are right now in the country, no one from any minority is welcome…its the land of the JHU, JVP and Rajapakses

There are people who are in the land and don’t like LTTE, JVP, JHU, PA, UNP, TNA, NGO etc.
These are the real non political every day Sri Lankans who wants to have a better standard of living. Unfortunately, their story don’t make headlines.
If people can empower and build the majority, you can have them solve minority challenges. That is the out of the box thinking that no one is working on.N. Ethirveerasingam said,
Sunanda Deshapriya and Dayan Jayatilleka,
Please don’t use the term “Pariah”. Many do without realising that the British used the Tamil term to denote a caste that Tamils ignorantly consider low in status. The Parayar I knew in my village are wonderful people. They were the Town Criers giving the news after beating a drum for people to assemble. They were the drummers in churches and funerals. They were nurses, teachers and government servants. As a child and now as a person in his twilight years I still admire them and consider them equal to any other. It pains me when I see or hear the name of a community is used to express distaste of another person or a State. It is a complement to Sri Lanka to call it a “Paraiah” State. A more appropriate terms for the current Sri Lankan state may be a “Rogue State”, or a “terrorist state.”
Plain Truth said,
Calling Sri Lanka a “terrorist state” is an insult to most peace loving Sri Lankans. It is a personal opinion and not consistent with the mainstream international opinion.
