Roy Edwards reporting from Toronto,  Sat Jan 21 14:01:06 EST 2006

    LTTE front organizations in Toronto are ina quandry , as the
Conservative party deputy leader and public safety critic Peter MacKay
said that the 'Conservatives will put LTTE in the list of banned
terrorist organization'. In an  interview to Stewart Bell, of the
National Post on Monday, Mr. MacKay said his party will not only ban the LTTE,
but also will act swiftly to deport convicted terrorists such as the
alleged Tamil Tiger fundraiser Manickavasagam Suresh.  Hours before
Mr. Mackay's interview, the Canadian Tamil Congress, a known LTTE
front in Toronto, arranged a meeting at the Delta hotel in
Scarborough, a Toronto suburb where ethnic Tamils are concentrated.
Candidates of all major four political parties attended the meeting
and discussed their policies. All candidates including those
representing the Conservatives, said that Canada should take greater
involvement in the "peace process" in Sri Lanka.

This time lot of anti-LTTE tamils vote for Conservative Party.

Now, LTTE tamils are a minority but they are the most vocal. Others ares ilent because of the safety of their relatives in Sri Lanka  

LTTE didint get anything from the Liberals. The LTTE is banned in USA but TNA MPs come and go there freely. TNA MP Pathmini Sithamparanathan was in US for Nov 2005 Heroes Day. But She wasnt given a visa to Canada, where LTTE is now not banned. Same happened to late MP Joseph Pararajasingham. Conservatives may find that they lost some key ridings in Ontario due to Tamil votes. Even Tamils who dont like LTTE has a dis-like for National Post.  Many things are riding in the election. This is somewhat a true democracy. Not like the one in Sri Lanka where parties claim others are outsiders and have no pleace there. So lets not blow the horn about a Conservative victory. There are many Tamils who will vote based on other standings of the candidates. Lets not think that all Tamils are going to carry this as their top concern as to who gets their vote.

LTTE Tamils don't like NATIONAL POST publishing criticizing reports. They even damage roadside boxes carrying the newspaper.

However, LTTE ban in canada is not that a big deal. It does not cause much difference unless we can stop fund transfer to weapon dealers.

 

In Toronto, a silent majority of Tamils want the operations of the LTTE and their front organizations banned.  The LTTE's fundraising activities have caused many Tamils who were otherwise passive of the LTTE cruelties back in Sri Lanka miserable and to decide against their normally pro-liberal party stance.  This time, I believe, many Tamils would be voting for the Conservatives.  So do I for the same reason!

The leaders of the Liberal and NDP parties have also proved time and again that they have been more concerned about vote catching rather than the  human rights violations of the LTTE, thus losing their credibility among the Canadian Tamils.  Those vociferous pro-LTTE Tamils are just a small persentage of the Tamil community just like in the NorthEast of Sri Lanka.

Bairavi you must be a very "patriot" to our country. Have you been to Mullaithivu when Tsunami came, I have been there and I saw with my own eyes LTTE and TRO helped those kids. Money we raised in Toronto was very helpful. All these foreign NGO's were driving SUVs and did nothing. Only LTTE and TRO were helping those kids. I don’t think you would even spend a penny for those people.

Have you ever been displaced because of shelling and bombing?? Have seen those grade 1 kids killed by SL Army's Air Strike?? You do not have to support LTTE at least support those people who are suffering in back home. What the hell you did so far to our country.  We should get united and build our country. By banning LTTE what will you get?? Do u thing you will get better life in Canada?? Do you think our people in Sri Lanka will get better life??  Do you think our gals will not be raped by SL forces?? Do you think our students will no beaten up or killed?  What will you achieve?? This is not the time to criticize because we are not in the field we have no idea of those people's pain. Who you think in LTTE?? They are our brothers and sisters; what will you do if your siblings make mistake?? We forgive, forget and help them to get a better position in life or society.  I am ready to admit that LTTE make mistake but r u ready to admit that they also do something useful to our community?? Please Bairavi, don’t put our community down by spreading rumors.  If majority of Tamils are against LTTE, they would have been banned ages ago. We do support them, they are our blood. Instead of criticize LTTE please do something against those gangsters and help them to get back to school. Please do something useful to our community . Thank you.

Does forcefully recruitment (of kids) to become cannon fodder also qualifies as a help? Only thing the LTTE (terrorists) were worried about was their man power.

To wage a ruthless terrorist war against Sri Lanka and the victims being mostly SL _innocent_ Tamils.

I thought the big rat was in hiding for sometime. Hell, we thought _it_ was dead. Prabakaran was only worried about _it's_ safety.

By helping the LTTE to kill and maim innocent people, you have become a traitor to our mother land and to the Tamil community. You will never be forgiven _traitor_.

Thooyan wrote:

Pathetic attempt to justify all these LTTE atrocities against the community. Try harder.

Thooyan wrote:

This is a misconception. Majority of the Tamils despise/hate the LTTE. However, their voices are silenced by these ruthless LTTE using the gun,death and destruction.

Thooyan wrote:

Not "We", but "You" may support those blood thirsty terrorists. Remember, Tamils, Sinhalese and Muslims are all OUR blood. We belong as one, but LTTE has no room.

I'm too bored to even reply to these proLTTE rodents, and if I did, I'd have to quote sentence by sentence of Thooyan and reply.

Thooyan, I doubt whether you have visited Mullaithivu and saw first hand the help LTTE was doing (recruiting helpless innocent Tsunami affected children). On the other hand, if you did visit SL, then you will agree how Tamils/Sinhalese and Muslims co-exist in the South. So you see, all your _very_ emotional mumbo jumbo was really a very hollow, pathetic attempt to justify the atrocities of LTTE.

Bairavi, I am sure the majority of the educated Tamils with a brain think like you. Prabhakaran is discriminating your community and he hates democracy. His kids can go to Universities in Ireland, and other kids have to stop going to school and die so that he can be the king. He even used those material came as Tsunami releif aids to cover his fences. Anton Bala does not no anything about the sufferings of the Tamils. His London life is more important for him. Get together and fight for freedom. Your relatives in Sri Lanka should be salvaged from this vulture. They should one day live with freedom. Then, you don't have to send money just to keep them alive. Then, LTTE can not come and kill them if you don't pay them. If you fight for true freedom and you work committed to democracy and development in the N&E, all Sinhalese will be behind you. After all we are all Sri Lankans.

I don’t have to quote your sentences but can you tell me what the SL government did so far to Tsunami affected Tamils? They could not even implement the PTOM because they don’t really want to help Tamils.

GOSL is using thousands of Tamil people's money from all government banks to kill Tamils. I don’t mind if LTTE use our money for freedom. Do you think that SL Army is helping us?? Do you go through barriers to University? Have you ever been strip searched?? Have your sister raped by LTTE??  Have you ever displaced like us? Have you affected by the standardization?

Sinhalese, Tamils and Muslims are our blood, I don’t disagree with that but LTTE did not come from sky they are from Tamils. Those who affected by sinhala Chauvinism are became LTTE. You are keeping saying LTTE are terrorist, do you think LTTE did anything worse than SL Army did to our Tamils??
Every time they get beaten up they just go kill innocent Tamils or rape Tamil girls. They couldn’t do anything against LTTE because they SL Army are cowards that’s y they kill innocent people to show their inability.

Didn’t we help southern people when there was a flooding?? Please don’t be in a small circle, come out of it.

Thooyan wrote:

FYI, Tsunami didn't discriminate anybody. It affected everybody. Everybody suffered and still suffering. Not only Tamils, but everybody.

Thooyan wrote:

Nope, it's trying to stop this LTTE terrorism. This is NOT a war against Tamils (as much as you like to say otherwise).

Thooyan wrote:

Freedom? What freedom are you talking about. Eelam? Do you see Tamils/Muslims suppressed in the South? No. All we see is Tamils/Muslims and Sinhalese being suppressed by the LTTE in the North. (East, they (LTTE) are slowly losing their terror grip).

Thooyan wrote:

Don't tell me; you were HUMILIATED right? I have heard this argument before. Please try to get this through your brainwashed skull. GOSL is NOT after Tamils, but it's after LTTE (terrorists). Hence, people will be searched, whether they are Tamils, Muslims or Sinhalese.

Thooyan wrote:

I have heard this argument too. "Tamils are LTTE, LTTE are Tamils, Amen". This is a total misconception.

Thooyan wrote:

do you think LTTE did anything worse than SL Army did to our Tamils??

Absolutely. LTTE not only killed Tamils, but it destroyed the wonderful Tamil community & culture. Tamils become increasingly alienated not because of GOSL, but because of LTTE. Wherever the Tamil community goes, LTTE will sooner or later screw things up there too.

Thooyan wrote:

Please elaborate.

Tell me once you do. You'll see me on the other side.

Oh yes...we saw last few weeks...all the co-existing tamils of colombo were put up in early hours, paraded in night cloths, transported by buses to police centres, finger printed & videoed.
The sakili para-miltaries were interogating them & negotiating bribes for speedy release.

U can always say that this done for their own scurity, all three communities were checked for criminal elements....but evrey tamil in colombo who was checked during this ops called strangers night, very well know that they were targeted.

Tamils dont co-exist in south, they survive...by being rich...by being cowards....by being second class citizens.

Hi Thooyan...dont try to convice guys like Bairavi....they are crowd u get in all the community who tell all sort of thing just to avoid contributing some dollars to affected people of thier own.
They will exercise therir charter of rights to make sureany volunteer from visiting their condo requesting funds for charity programs back home.

But when they visit colombo, they wil pay some dollars to the gate security guy at the airport... tip the three-wneel driver handsomely.....buy charity tickets sold by any sinhala organisation based closer to where they stay......all becos they are trying to be friendly with the sinhalese...you should see the way they 'sir" army guy at a check point...they will carry a canadian passport but will be so pleased when the immigration guy put the entry stamp on their passport..with the same thankful way they passed the army  check points back home.

The biggest joke is  these fools come to canada & tell..oh we had good rapport with sinhalse...we exist with sinhalse with no problems.....

You sure have a serious inferior complexity problem. You do not only spit hatred towards GOSL, but more towards the "rich" Tamil community itself. May I recommend some psychiatric treatment for you.

Ha ha, how ironic. You just described the LTTE's so called "VISA" entry procedure followed in the North. Can't blame you though. You are just afraid of the LTTE. I understand, they are a terrorist group and they hold your families hostage so you have no choice?

Right?

No, you are wrong. You do have a choice. Do what you can to prevent these LTTE atrocities from happening. Don't support terrorism. Don't support LTTE.

Dear Thooyan and Kunju Sappi

I am extremely impressed and wonderstruck to find such an articulate voice for LTTE psychophantism.  Your English as a Second Language lessons have really paid off.  I have a very good friend in Tamil media named Sethurupan Mathusena in Norway who is also a fellow bootlicker but his English is nothing at all compared to yours.  I suggest you write something for his sibernews.com so the bootlicking community can have something new to be proud of.

Coming from our proud tradition of Eelam diaspora mental incompetency, you write things without understanding how they can be turned back against you.  Are you aware that the LTTE's "relief efforts" were directly almost entirely for poraLi kuTumpam???????  When you attack the iNGOs for riding around in fancy cars, are you totally daft to the fact that our senior Commanders ride around in the same shiny Pajeros (which they obtained from the Colombo underworld)????  Do you think that our Thamilselvans or Bhanus would settle for anything less than the finest SUVs or better yet the helicopter rides from the SLA enemy (so they don't have to risk going through the same minefields that the average Tamil has to)?????

Perhaps you can tell us why Thamilselvan is entitled to lobster dinners when the Norwegians visit, while the rest of the Tamil population is starving????  Are we setting a N. Korean precedent here?????

I was truly in tears reading about Srilankan airstrikes, bombings, and rapes.  What you were basically admitting to everyone here is that the LTTE does not have the ability to protect the Tamil people during times of open hostilities, right?????  Isn't THAT the most tragic outcome of this war which you and your fellow diaspora cowards support????  Now the LTTE is very eagerly and openly clamoring for war, when the vast majority of Tamils in Srilanka do not want it.  They know that they will be the ones suffering just for the sake of the diaspora clowns' sense of self-esteem.

I hope you poseurs have something, anything intelligent to respond with, and will spare us your usual garbage cut-and-pasted from Sangam.org.  You can take refuge in the fact that the Sinhalese here find a great deal of entertainment from it, although the rest of us cannot feel anything but shame.
