The tamilnet and the members of the tamil diaspora who supported the terror campiagn of Sri Lanka are pathetic bankrupt mass of imperalist followers. My goodness the things these people will resort to geta unversity education at one of the top class locations in the world for their children, citizenship (albeit 2nd class) in a western capital etc. It is your hindu fellow tamilswho were forcibly engaged in a cruel war which they never wanted while you were happily funding and feeding the tigers and eating Mac Donalds and living it up in Canada, UK, USA, Australia and last but not least Norway with Erik Solheim. Wake up the country welcomes patriots be they tamils, sinhalese, muslims, malay or burgher. We do not welcome terrorists of any colour, creed or white imperialists who cannot get their own economies, political situations right in the first place. Their thirst for political office in their own countries cannot be satiated by meddling with our internal issues.
