Places like Quebec in Canada, Wales and Scotland in Great Britain are all part of their Federal Nations but have significant autonomy.

Tamils have a very legitimate desire, as anybody else would, to control their own lives, to rule their own destinies, and to govern themselves in their homeland, in the areas they have traditionally inhabited and to be independent, as they were before the advent of Colonial rulers in the year 1505.

2) Stress of the International communities to end violence is all a pretence, because of their insincerity:-
The purpose of any agreement being framed, parties involved signing, international communities witnessing, subscribing, attesting and certifying with the coverage of the mass media are all lost, if it is not adhered to the very letter.

International communities persistently reiterates in words only, that all efforts must be focused on restoring and sustaining peace, and both parties must swallow their pride for the sake of their Nation but they do not at all take any actions or initiative to be constructive to thwart the atrocities of the Sri Lankan government wielded against the Tamils or its mass killings of Tamils by bombing and shelling in the Tamil territories.

3)Fishing and cultivation in the Tamil territories:-
If the international communities were smart enough, cultivation and fishing in the Tamil territories in general and the LTTE controlled areas in particular would not have been affected irreparably causing untold hardship to those who lived on them.

Crops and plants got perished or withered away without being irrigated properly because of the sanctions and restrictions imposed on the movements of goods, inclusive of water pumps, fuel and fertilizer by the Singhalese government to starve the Tamils of their food and betterment with a view to subduing them.

4)Functions of the International Peace Monitors sound incompetence, if they are not in connivance with the vested interests :-
International communities in a perpetual manner and in a peculiar way lay stress, and harp on labelling the freedom struggle of the LTTE to its political aspirations as terrorism. Peace Monitors to-ing and fro-ing between the warring parties are there, to bear witness as to which party led to the initiation of blatant violation of the Cease-fire Agreement, and to expose the perpetrators to the whole world.

5)Terrorist Laws:-
Terrorist Laws are framed by the International powers only to check the so called international terrorists whom they have augmented by terrorizing the weaker nations, who now in return pose a threat to them internationally just like a home reared ram daring to gore the chest.

Those who are in search of terrorists must go behind those who indulge in blowing up civilian planes, bombing hospitals, buildings, derailing trains, etc, etc, internationally.

As quoted by Eric Margolis, in Toronto Sun, on 27 August 2006, brilliant maxim of Peter Ustinov emphasizes that, Terrorism is the war of the poor, and war is the terrorism of the rich.

The poisonous term terrorism has become a propaganda weapon to demonize any community which struggles tactically within its territory for the basic and fundamental rights of them, by being not at all an international terrorist organisation.

It is utmost stupidity to attempt to cure the symptom instead of the root cause of the disease. Any freedom struggle or terrorism is a symptom of an underlying cause of an unjust system, aggression or denial of rights, and they would automatically vanish once the root causes for the conflict are eliminated.

Obsessed with the stereotype view of the LTTE as terrorists , by banning the LTTE, international communities have enabled the Singhalese government to take the upper hand that led to the resumption of war by backtracking on the C.F.A.

6)Double standards and hypocrisy of the Co-Chairs:-
It smacks of double standards and hypocrisy, when the Co-Chairs (of the Tokyo Donor Conference for Sri Lanka Peace Process comprising the United States, the European Union, Japan, and Norway), stipulate in common that, both parties should cease hostilities immediately, and return to the negotiation table.

They know very well that, the LTTE is always ready, but the Government which backtracks on the peace process is not ready with its hawkish policies.

7)Are the International communities in fact to end the hostilities between the warring parties? No.:-
If in fact the International communities are to end the conflict, they will directly or through their representatives hold discussions with both the parties instead of only one they are favouring, and foster a congenial situation that would never pave a way for anyone to backtrack on the ceasefire agreement.

In this instance, the Tamil civilians, their elected representatives of the legislative assembly, or their militant group are all neglected in the discussions.

Further, to be unreasonable and unethical, regional and super powers taking a partisan stance, both overtly and covertly help the Singhalese government from time to time militarily knowing very well their hawkishness, and provide military training to the Sri Lankan top army brasses, and share military and naval intelligence with the Sri Lankan armed forces.

LTTE merchant ships were sunk in international waters with logistics provided by the Indian navy.

Joint naval patrols are being conducted in certain key and vulnerable areas.

India had provided military training to the top army brasses of Sri Lanka in Indian defence colleges and shared military and naval intelligence with the Sri Lankan armed forces, especially the Navy.

And also it has transpired that India has gifted indigenously made Indra radars.

India with vested interest wants the freedom struggle of Sri Lankan Tamils to be resolved, only under the control of its own stooges and other renegades and quislings who are supportive of its cause.

In addition to their numerical strength, the Singhalese armed forces brazenly with impunity, in its official capacity amasses sophisticated weaponry and armaments, together with multi-barrel guns, naval ships and war planes reserving funds enormously in the budget for war, in addition to other foreign aids from parties with vested interest, to crush only the Tamils in Sri Lanka.

Kfir (bomber plane) is one among the arsenal used by the Sri Lankan government to bomb Tamil villages. It has been used by Sri Lankan government since 1998, and it caused several Tamils to lose their lives.

Kfir (bomber plane) is used by nations such as Israel, US, Ecuador, Colombia, and Sri Lanka. Sri Lankan government is well known for its human right violations, but still US approved Israel to sell this disastrous weapon to Sri Lanka, only to annihilate the Sri Lankan Tamil community.

Under the patronage of super powers by being a pet in their hands already well equipped, Sri Lankan government roams around freely, and commits worst terrorism in Tamil homeland without being checked, until the Tamil community is exterminated gradually but steadily.

8)Never in the history of Sri Lanka, Singhalese areas had ever been subjected to aerial bombing and strafing by the Singhalese armed forces:-
Since 1983, over the last 23 years to date, in the war that ensued between the armed forces and the Tamil militants within the Tamil territories, churches, temples, schools, refugee camps, houses and business establishments were bombed and destroyed killing, wounding, maiming or mangling in hundreds including children while leaving behind children orphaned and men and women widowed.

International Humanitarian law has been defiantly flouted, and all sense of proportionality regarding use of force has been disregarded.

Atrocities unleashed in the Tamil territories include three-prong combined attacks by the armed forces comprising army, navy and the air force, involving firing, aerial strafing, cannonade and shelling.

It has to be emphasized that, even during the insurgencies of the Singhalese JVP extremists, the armed forces of the government never resorted to such tactics in the Singhalese areas, in consideration of the safety of the Singhalese civilians from which alone, to be conclusive it could be adduced that the Tamils are treated as second class citizens even within their own territories by the hegemonic Singhalese with a xenophobic attitude.

9)Constitution to impose the will of the hawkish Singhalese majority over the Tamil minority:-
To be unbecoming of their calibre, standard and status, International communities with vested interest, under the subterfuge of peacemakers pretend to be unaware still, that Sri Lanka a multi-ethnic and multi-religious country with a diverse and rich culture, has a constitution to impose the will of the hawkish Singhalese majority on the Tamil minority.

Sri Lankan Constitution emphasises that, only a Buddhist Singhalese could be the ruler, Buddhism could be the State religion, Singhalese could be the official language, Buddha statues could be erected at random anywhere in the island, colonization of Tamil areas by Singhalese could be done at State expense, and a contrived standardization procedure to enter higher education could be enforced to benefit the Singhalese with the suppression of Tamil children who thrive on education, while on the sly the past historical records or the archaeological evidences of the country are tampered with surreptitious interpolations to be advantageous to the Singhalese community.

Democracy does not prevail in Sri Lanka under the prevalent dominance of Singhalese race, Singhalese language and Buddhist religion.

Under such a set up of the Constitution, it is impossible to challenge the Mahinda Chinthanaya.

10)Mahinda Rajapakse Captures Power:-
His Excellency the President (Mahinda Rajapakse) on his determination to capture power in 2005, jettisoned all the aspirations of the Tamils for peace by prioritizing war, with his own ideology called Mahinda Chinthanaya, which emphasizes, no Norway, no federal constitution, no right to Homeland, no self-determination, no nation-hood for Tamils, no PTOMS, no recognition of anyone as sole partner in negotiation and no Oslo as venue for talks and bagged the coveted post with a combination of circumstances, his hawkish stance against the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam, and solid backing from Jathika Hela Urumaya the party of the Buddhist monks and the Marxist-nationalist party Janatha Vimukti Peramuna.

11) Tamils have to go in their own way, as they can have two States to conform to the accepted International norms and standard:-
Existences and independence had been recognized of UN Member States like Israel, Bangladesh and so on in the past or East Timor from Indonesia in year 2002, State of Eritrea from Ethiopia on 24 May 1993, Atoll of Atafu the last colony of New Zealand with not even 1500 people in March 2006, and Republic of Montenegro from Serbia and Montenegro on 3 June 2006.

After years of terrorism in Northern Ireland, Britain negotiated a deal with the Irish Republican Army.

France ended its bitter colonial war in Algeria by handing over control of that country to the terrorist Front de liberation National. Africa�s apartheid regime had to talk to the African National Congress rebels it had characterized as terrorists.

Britain negotiated its pullout from Palestine with a Zionist movement that included terrorists.

Israel has negotiated prisoner exchanges with organizations, such as Hezbollah, that it considers terrorists.

In Sri Lanka, which is 65,610 sq.km approximately, we can have two States, to conform to the accepted International norms and standard, without contravening the United Nations Charter.

A few UN Member States actually smaller than either the future Singhalese Sri Lanka approx. 46,777 sq.km. Or the Thamileelam approx. 18,833 sq.km (in order of Area) are as follows: Fiji, Kuwait, Swaziland, East Timor, Vanuatu, Qatar, and Gambia the, Jamaica, Lebanon, Cyprus, Brunei, Cape Verde, Luxembourg, Comoros, Mauritius, Singapore, Atoll of Atafu and so on.

N.B.
Surrender of Karuna impelled the armed forces to sideline the peace process:-

In the year 2002, people heaved a sigh of relief on the enactment of CFA on 22/02/2002. But within months, Karuna, one of the most trusted erstwhile confidants of LTTE militants, slipped into the hands of the Singhalese armed forces with a pledge to damage the reputation of the LTTE by pursuing his vendetta against it until it is crushed, to escape justice from the movement because of his embezzlement of tens of millions of movement funds, murdering fellow cadres, sexual escapades and abuse of female cadres.

He was spared on his pledge and his surrender impelled the armed forces to sideline the peace process, break the truce that prevailed by virtue of the CFA and embark afresh on violent activities shattering the peaceful atmosphere that existed in the country.

Karuna was admitted into the government sponsored paramilitary groups, the growth of which is being fostered with ulterior motive at state expense with corpulent remunerations and perquisites.

Tamil community in Sri Lanka is obsessed nowadays with a fear psychosis, due to the dreadful terror that prevails among them by the existences of the SL Government sponsored Paramilitary groups comprising Tamil renegades.

The para-paramilitary groups in collusion with the Singhalese armed forces go on a killing spree when they come across any Tamil who exhibits his/or her aspirations for equal rights or do not submit to their extortions of money. Further, they do not even hesitate to stray into the Tamil territories yearning for sexual relations under coercion or to cast lewd remarks under the guise of searching for hidden bombs.

Furthermore, they indulge in abduction or killing of prominent, erudite and intellectual personnel among Tamils to subdue them and suppress their aspirations. Moreover, they have not released yet the humanitarian aid personnel of TRO whom they had abducted nearly eleven months ago and their fate is not known still.
