Sri Lanka - News and Discussion
Re: Sri Lanka - News and Discussion
For reasons of political correctness, in hard analysis there is no need to be silent on the role religion plays, and how religion is used by outside powers.
Re: Sri Lanka - News and Discussion
RajeshA, I am talking about the killing of the Child here. There is no need to bring in religion to analyze that issue.
I do understand the deep religious division that exist in SriLanka and how local and foreign powers exploit those divisions for their own purposes. I have also read several years back that VP and gang voluntarily converted to Christianity to get funds and support from EJ folks. It was not just one sided, I heard. It was convenient for both the parties.

rgsrini ji,
by hard analysis I was referring to Strategic Issues. Sorry for any lack of clarity.

Re: Sri Lanka - News and Discussion
You seem to be still hung on JUST LTTE. The larger issue is not about LTTE or its leadership. The larger issue is about SL and how it treats its citizens. What do you think is propaganda? You think decades of harassment and second class treatment is propaganda?chetak wrote: It is not so much xtian as the xtian leadership of the ltte that is also aimed as much at the Indian landmass as the lankan landmass. eelam is still out there, simmering softly for now but not forgotten.
Any number of Indians and foreigners are stridently screaming in international fora that we are ill treating our minorities. Who is the final arbitrator? Us or them??
Extend the same courtesy to the lankans. We should learn to separate the propaganda and the realpolitik.
If the amrekis intervened in Indian affairs WTF would we do?
Would there be ANYONE on this forum supporting the amrekis? I think not.
India and moral high ground? Get real, saar. Our moral high ground is occupied by such lofty mahatmas like A Raja, Kalmadi, kanimohzi, karunanidhi, lallu yadav & the incomparable mms and their ilk
Realpolitik? I am talking real politics only saar. In those days, people in Madras (probably elsewhere) would be scared to give house on rent to Srilankan tamil refugees. For all the camaraderie, the situation was tough for the refugees and crime rate was high - at least the perceived ones. TN was affected by the refugee problem, and so did the nation. It is realpolitik that made India help these organizations for decades, and then send in IPKF and then eventual pussyfooting. In the process India got its former PM murdered too.
America and India are not equal equal. India, in my mind has a better moral ground to stand than any other country.
I see you did not answer my emotive question; considering what is happening in SL is almost in India's backyard it is India's interests to solve or help SL solve the problem. It is "Indian Interests", are we going to UN for this?

Let me tell you what can be gained by connecting dots, and also draw a larger picture.Theo_Fidel wrote:LTTE was a secular organization. It never cared about the religious identity of its members. It was come one come all, preferably with dollah and AK-47.
AFAIK it was a Tamil terrorist group and never identified itself as a Hindu terrorist group. This attempt to tar it as a Christian organization is baffling. What exactly is gained?
Cutting and pasting endless series of innuendo does not change that....
1. LTTE is a terrorist organization.
2. Its leadership are either Christians or Crypto-Christians.
3. The leadership are helped by European Churches and trouble making governments.
4. They eventually want to create a separate tamil land with tamil christians in SL.
5. This "homeland" in SL, will inspire the Southern TN (with even more Christian population) to raise demand for an "unification" of the 'tamil homeland'.
6. This will either carve a territory out of TN (and thereby India) or cause the entire TN to be separated from India and join this 'homeland'.
7. One can see signs by the massive EJ money pouring into Madras and TN.
It sounds logical to some who do not know tamilians or tamil nadu. Silapaerukku, karthadhu elam paei.

Re: Sri Lanka - News and Discussion
May be it was not just the Christian allegiance of the LTTE which made the waters murky for India, but also the Periyar politics of TN and the EJ activity there. Or may be the Christian dynasty in Delhi thought that if they were to allow this to proceed as you formulated the scenario, it would have a backlash in India and then the dynasty may lose all power!SwamyG wrote:Let me tell you what can be gained by connecting dots, and also draw a larger picture.Theo_Fidel wrote:LTTE was a secular organization.

Have you heard of the British Empire,the western missionaries,the preferential treatment which still survives in St Xaviers in Palayamkottai,St Johns,Bishop Hebers,St Joosephs in Tiruchi,Loyola,MCC,Tambaram,CMC Vellore,St Marthas Bengaluru.
Amplify it a million times in the much smaller physical space of eezham and colombo.

Please read Rajiv Malhotra's Breaking India. The threat is from the multi-national corporation called Vatican with turnover of billions of dollars. It is the second largest land owner in India after Railways. Last heard, the Christians were sending 2.5 billion dollars to India every year for "charity work."Theo_Fidel wrote:So christians will NEVER be that powerful yet they created the LTTE single hand in defiance of 2 large states, have committed massive social engineering, encouraged TN to secede, rediscovered Tamilzh literature single handed(ignoring those temple transcribers of sangam literature, what poor saps), inspired a challenge to hindu civilization....

People will help those humans because they are fellow tamilians.
People will help those humans because they are fellow Hindus.
People will help those humans because they are fellow Christians.
People will help those humans because they are neighbors to India.
People will NOT help those humans because they ARE tamilians.
People will NOT help those humans because some of THEM ARE Christians.
People will NOT help those humans because they fear Dravidian "upraising" {a.k.a Homeland}
Ultimately help is offered or not offered based on the implications to India and other emotional issues.
Hence, I say.....make SL part of India; and allow pluralism to take over that new state. The new state should be called 'Swarna Deepam'. India is going to be like those empty nesters in West, all its former regions are moving away and the politicians go after one scam to another. And others do not know to help or not. Meanwhile innocent people get killed.
Do you want to bet on the direction of arguments if the Sinhalese were Christians, and the tamilians were Hindus (the majority still are). On second thoughts some of the Tamil Christians would be supporting the Sinhalese Christians.

I will admit the more extreme conversion groups are nuts. But that in itself should tell you how crazy incompetent they are...

After 200 years of missionary work my community is still 10% christian. Exactly what they were in 1850. What kind of results are these.
Many CSI christians would also consider it and insult to be called a pentecostal. For that matter many years ago my Grand pa who was syrian christian was so insulted by some one misidentifying him that he walked out of the wedding with his daughter, my mom who was the bride. Indians are touchy about their identities. what is your point.
Again sorry for the OT.

How did America go about making Hawaii a state. Granted that was a century ago; and no one bothered about it.

I know my expectation is really a stretch and never gonna happen. But India needs to pull SL leaders aside and reiterate: "Dudes, get your house in order, or else....we will ferment trouble and carve out a territory. Your call."

I will not speak for BR
i will speak for myself
I see myself backing whats right for India.
I do not care if an external group is linked to whatever ethnicity in some part of India - if they have abused us - support to them will not come at the cost of other Indians or indian foreign policy or strategic considerations
it applies to Tamils in Sl, applies to Indians in fiji, sikhs etc
by extension if there are no ethnic links from an external group but they have been extremely supportive of Indian strategic interests then they deserve support
so to answer Indian support depends on what the relation to India has been and India's strategic concerns.
regards
NOTE:
before you misread it - wrt SL Tamils - my problem is with LTTE and ltte supporters.
I do think we have role to push the GOSL to deal with the Tamil issue

One can do something like that to a country with a dictatorship, which is hostile to you, has used terrorism against you, or threatens you with WMD, where you can walk in, kick the regime, do some nation-building and you're welcomed with flowers.
Nothing like that is possible in Sri Lanka, unless of course Chinese open up a military base there, and we decide to move in because we feel threatened, but even then there would be sovereignty issues.
Sorry that is the wrong model. The model to go for would be where the Sri Lankans themselves feel strongly about joining India and that is possible when their religious right becomes very keen on it and can mold public opinion. One needs to win over their religious right, with many many sops, training, promoting our supporters in the various orgs there, and building strong religious ties between the two countries. That requires a dispensation in India which knows how to play this.
Let's say Saudi Arabia proposes to Pakistan to join it, would the Pakis refuse?

Re: Sri Lanka - News and Discussion
This discussion is going awry ...
No country and No people will willingly give up even a modicum of their present freedoms unless a greater threat exists which aims to destroy those freedoms completely and permanently .
If they are unwillingly made to give up those freedoms it will only lead to resentment and animosity precluding a fruitful partnership arising between us when such a defense against a common enemy is really required .
So lets stop all this useless talk on the lines of
"lets make SL part of India like massa did for Hawaii" etc
Below is an oft repeated cliche , yet ill repeat it..
1st Economic Integration - Even as of today i see many SL sourced products in supermarket shelves and probably they too see a lot of Indian sourced products - such mutual economic interests will surely lead to a future of economic integration : common markets common customs common currency et al
Simultaneous to above there is the people to people interaction - through visaless travel for tourism , education , commerce et al
Simultaneous to the above but with a relatively lesser pace comes in the security partnership - where common interests will be agreed to be defended by a common force.
That's it and there is nothing much to go ahead from that point .
There is definitely no need to think of coming under a single union .

Re: Sri Lanka - News and Discussion
Surya: I hope I did not misunderstand you, all confusions , if at all are mois. Your points in BRF are mostly logical....so I take it seriously.
The way I read your post was that you were accusing another BRFite (or generally tamilians) supporting SL tamilians because of ethnicity. If I read that correctly, then my poser is essentially "so what if that is a reason?". I will add that reason should be validated by the governments to ensure it is worthwhile.
If I read you correctly, you are saying "Do something, if it aligns with Indian interests". I have no problem with that. And I am not an LTTE supporter, was never. Nor a tamil fanatic. I am suggesting India needs to look at humanitarian reasons as well, because SL is next door onlee.
We cool
?
Rajesh: Your model will not work, because SL is rabid like Pakistan. Can one reason with them? Or make India an heaven for them to voluntarily come "home"? Never going to happen in our life time.
Lilo saar: If your child is throwing tantrum, you take control. If your neighbor is throwing tantrum, you complain to the officials. If the officials do not act, you either move away or force your neighbor to behave.

Re: Sri Lanka - News and Discussion
partly yes but the assorted *MKs and supporters are not helping by raking the ltte \ war issues, human rights yada yadaI am suggesting India needs to look at humanitarian reasons as well, because SL is next door onlee.
stopping military training, or business links etc is taking away the GOIs options to deal with SL and bring it on our orbit
the war issues are over and raking them points to motives in sustaining certain elements and interests.
without those pressures if I was GOI I would intervened in specific plans - like bring over child soldiers for rehab, monitor resettlement programs jointly etc and then the carrot of linked rail and road etc.
Instead we react and SL can play others against us plus we are allowing the crooked HR concerns of certain western elements on our doorstep which had none of the concerns when they blazed through Iraq killing many times over.

Say a group of US citizens of Indian origin are harassed by xenophobic groups bent on race/religion chauvinism. Many get killed. Many become refugees. They are still not able to live in peace.
Would anyone be saying
- these are US citizens. Not our problem.
Would anyone expessing any identification with the ordinary people suffering - be accused of being a traitor to India?
Why the double standards?
And then we go ahead and open threads about "soft power", "indian footprint" and write gazillion bazillion posts. Ack thoo.

Many such eggspurts also tell us that US has oppressed india but strangely those of us who have taken US citizenship are still counted as indian. SL tamils need not be thought of as indians. I don't think so, nor do i want them to be a part of proper india - unless thats what they want.
But what is wrong with having a little sympathy for their plight, even while being against LTTE and its contribution to their plight.
If that makes me anti indian, so be it.

Undeniably there has been massive social engineering in TN. Dravidian and AIT stooges have muddied the waters there and have actively created an "oppressed" race where none actually existed.

What next, make a man walk on water, no wait hmm......
This has been going on for the better part of a century or more with all kinds of "scholars" who emerged out of the woodwork.
Even today we are being subjected to a barrage of propaganda. The EJs have falsely embedded themselves in the historic and cultural narrative of another. St Thomas and his exploits in TN was denied by the vatican but is still being pushed today by interested parties.

In the United States, Indians residing there are clearly outside Bharatvarsha, and it is for Bharatiyas to express solidarity with them. Sri Lanka is part of Bharatvarsha, so the two warring "tribes" there - the Sinhalese and the Sri Lankan Tamils are both part of Bharatiya Family, especially as they are still of Dharmic persuasion - Buddhists and Sanatanics.
So one would tend not to take sides.

I have no answer for that particular question, which is why I say that we lay off srilanka and it's internal affairs. Sympathize all you want but do not harm lankan interests in some silly UN vote thinggy. This is a double edged sword that will cut us deeply very soon. Speak privately if you will to them but do not take any public steps that becomes irrevocable, especially under pressure from some silly motivated TN gang which does not have India's best interest at heart and are playing some dirge that someone offshore is paying them to play. Karunanidhi needs MMS like never before. Amma is comfortably waiting like a basking crocodile and the old buggers in the TN political cesspool can feel the warm fetid breath. The kangressi lot in Delhi cannot be destabilized by dhothiwallas in TN. Any destabilization now will set off a fratricidal and savage internecine warfare and there may well be no survivors, leaving Amma a clear field for at least 8-10 years to come.
Exactly how do you propose that we do it?
