And is that image that important that you are willing to look aside when your people are being killed on the seas by a country that is about the size of Bihar and with 1/5th of the population ? You have still now answered why I should be beholden to a policy that involves turning a blind eye to...

How many days will you allow yourselves to be blackmailed and bullied by parroting the China card ? and to quote your words - that is not how foreign policy should be conducted. Not on fear.

This is from Jan 23 2011 - Pranab vows action on fishermen's killings - The Hindu And this is from Mar 8 2013, Fisherman shot at by Sri Lankan Navy - The Hindu Now can you tell me what happened to Pranab's vow ? And there are plenty of news that come in vernacular media that dont...

Now its you who is being emotional. My reply was to your moral stand as to how we can "interfere" in the internal affairs of another country. This issue is not their internal affairs, not from the last 30 years when the RAW ang GoI started "interfering" there or atleast from the moment their...

Thanks for this post. I personally agree that demanding secession from a sovereign country is not the way to go about. What I think is the way is Indian Govt being honest in what they want to do in Lanka and making the Lankans implement the things they promised they would implement before...

You may think how it affects your image, but I frankly dont care when my people are being killed. Actually they are your people too. If you consider them as Indians. Can you define "secluded" and how it negatvely affects the overall economic or social development of the country ? If secluded...

Your post is highly biased because of some decades old issue that is disappearing now. You typed this post not as a Tamilian, not even as an Indian, but as a ________. So since your primary frame of reference is that, no matter what I say, it would not find resonance with you. So I would like...

Requoting my post - Because we (as in Indians) are by nature regionalistic and dont like think of other state problems as ours. And you yourself gave a hint of why the North Indians at large dont care for this by bringing in the Hindi issue. Many N I still consider Tamils as inherently...

I'm afraid that you are anything but neutral. And being neutral does not mean being informed. Nor is being emotional synonymous with being ignorant. Not every attack on the fishermen is reported in the Delhi and Mumbai based media who are more pre-occupied with Aishwarya's panty color and...

Calm down..exactly how ? Treat the symptoms and not the disease ?

I had already posted the link which says the militarization and sinhalization of the Tamil areas is going on unabated even in 2012. Nice way to reconcile. And the Lankan govt promised the devolution of powers to the Tamil areas in seeking Indian support (the so called Thirtheenth Amendment...

What..what do you want the GoI to do ?

I know once given these you will "reject" them as propaganda and try to bury your head, but there is no harm in trying. http://srilankabrief.files.wordpress.com/2013/03/slb-briefing-notes-no-5-hr-situation-in-north-sri-lanka-2012.pdf And its executive summary Militarisation and Imposition...

Hmm no. It was the Official Languages Act which started the whole thing and the Black July riots that precipitated the war.

Because this protest is not political. That is what most people are missing out. We ARE already involved in their internal affairs. Do you even know the amount of collusion New Delhi had in the final phase of the war ? So this call for "not interfering" in internal affairs is a completely...

Two extremely good comments in this first post article that captures our side of the story. A comment by Tamilan1- Another by Pachai Tamizhan - A comment by Alagu Vignesh Mohan - Yes, in some parts it is indeed quite rhetorical, but its not without its fair share of truth and ground...

Mr.Militant Leader...all is fine..but please dont send militants along with their pakistani wives and 5 or 6 kids to our Kashmir to settle down and change the demographic nature. Send the mard-e-momin militants with AK-47s so that our job is easy.

Good stragety - yes, nevertheless an abandonment of "Hindostani" muslims the pehelgan guy was talking about.

The flood of willing refugees was reduced to a mere trickle by imposing visas and closing the borders to refugges who wanted to cross over thus stranding them in India. That is the biggest abandonment.

What has who ruled India got to do with this thread...? :what: It is NOT a lankan matter when Indian govt was hands in glove with the Lankans in the whole ethnic cleansing thing and it was to Indian govt that Lanka made many promises regarding what they will do to reconcile with Tamils...
