Tamils - a Trans State Nation..

Life's good comes not from others' gift, nor ill

And in the stench of death
You have created for us
We will quietly stand
We will rise up
Raise our heads to the sky
And shout Freedom  more

15 March 2006 Trade Wars, Peace Deals and Imperial Occupation

"..In this shrinking global market, the high value �stock in trade� is �peace and human rights�. It has of course, multiple meanings; but one of it is that, it is a ruthless industry. Hence, prior to any �new� peace deals, the Tamils must refuse to fall into the trap in which they were almost entrapped in previous negotiations.

Looking for Loopholes

"Much is being said about the peace overtures in Geneva between the Sri Lanka Government (SLG) and the Tamil Tigers (LTTE). Balasingham called it a �diplomatic victory�. An over estimation, one would think. The SLG have raised their tails and retorted with a spin that the Tigers agreed to an "Amendment to the original Cease Fire Agreement".
