My interests

From the very beginning of the conflict in erstwhile Ceylon, I had been interested in the subject. There were many reasons for this. One was the fact that it more or less gave me a theme to see the whereabouts of my language theory in the development of this issue. Another thing was my understanding of the Indian political mentality and the deep triggers and strings that mould and move it, which was at variance from popular beliefs.


The British Legacy

There are many reasons that prompts me write about this theme in a British site. For one thing, Ceylon was a British colonial area, bequeathed to undeserving people there, who literally made a mess of a geographical area. Second is that I would like to trace the events there in accordance to the functioning of the language codes (primary level).


When the British gave independence to most of their colonial areas, in Asia, Africa, and in American landmass and Australia around 1947, Ceylon also got its independence. I would not be silly enough to say that all these nations got freedom, for it is doubtful if the majority population in most of these nations, got more freedom; rather in most nations, including India, most of the freedoms were really lost. However, most people are not aware of these items, living as they are in literally miniscule social environments.


The resurgence of the chauvinism

When Ceylon got independence, naturally the majority population wanted to impose their own version of nationality ie. the Sinhala. Well that is what the so-called shallow theme of democracy is all about. Yet, mind you, the nation is not speaking English. I have no reason to believe that the Sinhala language is not feudal; it must be; so is Tamil. Feudal languages create social structures, which are essentially structured, and non-intrusive to a person who is outside it.


The impenetrable sheath

For example, when I used to go to government offices (in India), and go through the channel of being a senior government official’s offspring, then there is a level of communication and level of words, that more or less encompasses me, and I can function inside this. Yet, if I went as an ordinary citizen of this nation, the bureaucracy exists as a strong inflexible sheet of hierarchy, into which I cannot enter as an ordinary citizen, other than with some other superior attributes. The whole lot of communication words that I now use become preposterous impertinence.


The repositioning

Now, when the Tamil and Sinhala groups are made to co-exist, then they more or less have to be mutually exclusive and non-inclusive. {Actually, this is the fact of social tension in most English-left colonial areas). The other option for the Tamils would be to be a part of the social and political structure designed by Sinhalese social strings. In reality, this would mean going into servitude to the immense links in that social system. It is true that many would find enjoyable levels, but as a class, they would be outclassed, outnumbered and suppressed.


I have no reason to support the Tamil, as it is a very feudal language. But then, it is equally possible that Sinhalese is also no better.


The imminent financial superpower

Now, I need to go into another side of the theme. That of India, being in close proximity to Ceylon; just 21 kilometres across the Palk Strait. I remember the time when I was in my college in the early 80s. It was a common knowledge that Ceylon was becoming a regional financial superpower. There were even talks that it was going to be a minor Japan just under the feet of India. It had attained a reputation as a famous tourist centre. The people of the southern areas of India were able to view the Ceylon’s TV known as Rupavahini. It was of reasonably good professional quality, and not the clutter that come to represent current day regional TV. I remember vaguely that there was some sort of a relay station for the VOA, and that America was having some military base there; I am not sure.


The distressed neighbour

While this was the Ceylon situation, India was in terrible conditions. The prime minister was Indira Gandhi of the Nehru ‘dynasty’. Even though the nation was in a horrible state, the ruling class had no lacking in pretensions to royal demeanours. The presence of an admirable nation right under their nose was not seen in a very benign manner; that too, when the nation was of miniscule size.


The dynasty that sprung up from nowhere

Now, it is good to say a few words about the ‘Nehru dynasty’. It was a family that grew up on contrived information. The people were deliberately fed false information on personal and familial grandeur, that the general impression was that they were from a kingly race, very superior in intelligence, and on a par with the British colonial class. {Nehru studied in England, his daughter more or less had European domicile, and her descendants all are international mobile persons). Even now in certain areas of the nation, the common man would say with authority that Jawaharlal Nehru’s father Motilal Nehru had asked of the British government if they were willing to sell India to him for money. That much wealth he had, that he could literally buy India, if the British were not willing to relinquish it willingly. People believe such nonsense, and the newspapers, especially the vernacular ones dole out such stories.


Currently the Nehru family could be fantastically rich!!!


A penchant for disruption

Indira Gandhi is widely reputed to have a penchant for creating disruption in neighbouring nations. It may not be an individual delinquency, but one that is more or less spread throughout the senior bureaucracy and military leadership. For the languages here are all feudal, and they cannot conceive any other nation in a English manner of equality, but either as superior or inferior. So, if anyone comes up, the natural disposition is to disrupt him. It is like saying that Canada is actively conspiring to create disruption in USA. However since both are English nations, nothing of that sort is currently happening. It will happen once English has been replaced to some extent in one or both of the nations.


The spurring and the sparring

Like in the case of Muktibhahini movement in erstwhile East Pakistan (now Bangladesh), the Tamils in Ceylon were given the inspiration and training to create problems. Now, the fact is that the Tamils had a valid reason for that. It was seen, understood and utilised.


Now when the Indian army personnel started giving training to the Tamils, they would see them only as expendable pawns and gullible idiots. No theme of them being intelligent freedom fighters with individuality will be there. For, all talk in the Indian languages, including Hindi and Tamil, will be in the lower indicant words. More or less as servant class. Yet, things don’t always move in such containments. Certain youngsters spring up who would not bear for long the servitude attitude being extracted from them.


I think this was essentially the background to creation of such personalities as Prabhakaran. However, the language is feudal Tamil, and leadership can only be in a pyramid like formation. An immensity of leadership cannot function in these language system, for each would try to disable the other. It is a complicated scenario, and cannot be dealt in here. It lead to a sharp fight for leadership.


The lopsided equation

Now, with the rise of the LTTE, what would their equation with the Indian officialdom and that of the military leadership? Well, what has to be known is that India also function in extreme feudal language communication systems. Look at the Indian army itself. Though bequeathed by the British, the moment they left, the system was reassembled into Hindi designs. Only the so-called ‘officer’ class maintain an English communication system, and the ‘johnnies’, the ordinary soldiers are in an encasement of feudal Hindi. It helps maintain a system of discipline, which is very intellectually repressive, regimented, unintelligent, as well as very crude and forceful. The ‘officer’ class find it very helpful, and most of the soldiery also find their station very fortunate, coming as they are from very low financial backgrounds. However, as in the case of the Indian police, an unfortunate encounter with the lower level class of the soldiery can be a very demeaning and mentally distressing event for the citizenry with some level of dignity. For these soldiery, who themselves are at the lower menial levels inside their departments, may use demeaning lower indicant level words to the citizens. As the armed forces interact only in areas of strife, this distress just adds on to the existent antipathy to the establishment.


The military leadership will not be inclined to concede a dignified level of communication and reference structure to the LTTE personnel, including their officer class, as well as leadership.


Murder as an essential component of political power grabbing

It was during this time that Rajiv Gandhi came to power, with the demise of his mother. Now, it may be kept in mind that political killings in India, and many similar nations do serve a very useful purpose, in that political parties that are on the verge of demise get a vitality and romp back to power, riding on the sympathy wave that sweep in. (The language codes do the work). Usually, it is the wife, son, daughter, husband, intimate associate etc. who get the benefit).


A mediocre on the pedestal

When Rajiv Gandhi came to power, putting on a series of affectations including that of reluctance, there was a lot of hope that he was the man to bring in a cultural change to a nation mired by bureaucratic corruption and feudal self-serving. He came in with ‘shocking’ levels of communication inputs. He addressed the Speaker of the lower house of Parliament with a ‘Mr.’; it sent shockwaves down the corridors of power. {I mention this to bring into notice that real items that shocks around here).


The megalomania

Yet, within no time, the Indian feudal social structure restructured around him, and then he also got infected with the usual Indian feudal mood. A feeling of megalomania seemed to set in. This mental infliction is a very common mental disease in most Indian official class, starting from the lowly Village ‘officer’ to the highest of the bureaucratic personnel. The feudal positioning of the language by the crowd that throng all around induces this feeling.


Rajiv Gandhi’s infliction went to such a level that once when Britain made some comment on military atrocities in Kashmir, he simply called it a ‘third third power’, even though at that time India was accepting heavy developmental aid from Britain. Then he continued to say, ‘we will teach them a lesson that will make them remember their grandfather’.


The self-asserting ‘serfs’ and the mediators

Once it was seen that the LTTE was getting on well on its own, with its own international connections, it would naturally be disquieting for the Indian feudal officialdom, who would see their serfs developing into international and regional leadership. A local social method of reasserting leadership is to come in as a mediator. This entity is a common feature in all Indian social systems. They actively await discord in all areas, including families and neighbours and come in as invited or uninvited mediators. Once they come in, both sides are literally under their thumb.


The Indian officials entered into the fray between the LTTE and the (now) Sri Lankan leadership. Naturally, for the Indian officialdom, communicating with the Sri Lankan officialdom would be more comfortable, as both their social levels would be in sync with each other’s social position; than that to that of the LTTE.


A weird encoded pressure

Rajiv Gandhi and the Sri Lankan leadership made a peace treaty, and they wanted the LTTE leadership to agree to it. So, Prabharakan was brought to Delhi, and here it is possible that he did not agree to the pressure piled on him. Here the word ‘pressure’ needs to understood in its Indian feudal language context. A lot of understanding into this can be understood by knowing what was the word for ‘he’ used with regard to Prabharakan, in the private conversations among the military leadership, among the senior officials, and by Rajiv Gandhi and his coterie. For each differing word has a differing meaning, significance and social and political power and prestige. It is very much possible that all of them would be using the lower level indicant word for Prabhakaran and the higher-level words for themselves and Rajiv Gandhi. Actually, this is the crucial understanding on which everything works; even in making political decisions with international repercussions. Even when Rajiv Gandhi called Britain a ‘third rate power’, this usage would have played its role.


A leader in confinement

Prabhakaran was put under house arrest, and compelled to sign an accord, which he did not see any reason to. It may be understood that Prabhakaran was then a man with a huge following in the Tamil Nadu state of India; and an individual in his own right. {When compared to him, Rajiv Gandhi is a mere imbecile}. If this nation were really working on democratic principles, then this factor would have been taken into consideration. Yet, what really happens is that anyone who is in the control of another group, is simply at the other’s mercy; for his indicant word level is low. This understanding may be kept by Britain also; for if at any moment in history, it chances to be in a lower position to any feudal language nation, then do not expect any politeness, courteous attitude or even dignified behaviour. All the British stances of decorum can be expected only from English speaking and similar language nations. Or when such nations are in controlling power internationally.


A blatant misuse of national armed forces

India then sent its army ostensibly to foster peace, under the name of Indian Peace Keeping Force (IPKF). Well, even without the horrible stories that came out of the area, one can imagine what would happen if the armed forces were let loose on civilian population. The army tried its best to crush the LTTE, whose cadre disappeared into the Vavunniya forests. There are a few things to be said about this attitude. One is of the natural disdain for the Tamilians evident in certain areas of the national corridors of power, even though there is nothing grand about the northern states themselves. Second, how could Rajiv Gandhi order the letting loose of terror on a Tamil populace with immense connection with the Tamilians in the south Indian state of Tamil Nadu. It shall remain as a gross misuse of authority and military personnel.


The comparable fortitude

As to the LTTE, it must be admitted that they have shown an immensity of fortitude, that has lasted over twenty-five years. It is not a joke. In the early days, it was a very professional looking military group, with well-trained personnel, and well attired, if one were to go by the pictures that used to appear of dead LTTE personnel. One can compare their case with that of England in the world war days, when the German army attacked with a mighty war machine. The bravery of the British youngsters helped to fend off the enemy, yet had not there been a lot of external help, and the British gone on defending their island, then the war would have continued for years and years, much to the detriment of the English citizens over the generations.


The impossible amalgamation

It is a mistake on the part of the English nations to believe that any two groups of people of differing language structure and direction can be joined together. When the language is good quality English, it is possible. Otherwise, it is not possible. If one believes in democracy and its ways and manners, then also believe that English should also be imposed before democracy is imposed, otherwise, what comes about is only a mutually bickering mass of people who are kept together by draconian means.


The stupid act

It is said that the LTTE killed Rajiv Gandhi. He was then a ‘former Prime Minister’ and not ‘the Prime Minister’. Well, it was a stupid act on the part of the LTTE; for Rajiv Gandhi was very well on his way to political oblivion, for in the elections that were going on, the congress party was again taking a solid battering. In all the elections that took place before his death, the congress fared very poorly. All elections that took place after his death, congress did fantastically. The sympathy wave! The killing also earned the LTTE a reputation as of a terrorist organisation; but then, seen from a detached viewpoint, that is what war is all about; killing deemed enemies. Well, Britain has also did the same during the Wars. Otherwise, what is the theme of the film, Operation Day Break, based on a real incident?


The haunting virus

All the problems of a feudal language would also haunt the LTTE also. There was a commander among them by name, Mahattayya. I am not exactly what went wrong. I think some level of suspicion crept up about his loyalty and I think he was killed by the LTTE itself. Now, this type of loyalty problems can creep in very fast in feudal language situations, especially when the lower level person displays tremendous capacities. It is not really something created by the two individuals concerned, by the words and usages of the others around them. Then the two concerned persons also change their words and usages, and sharp distrust and displacement of positions take place. Feudal languages do have this virus encrypted in them.


An England cannot be created

Personally, I don’t think that the success of LTTE is going to create an England over there, but then a success of the Sinhala also cannot create an England over there. All these nations’ redemption lies in their changing their language over the years to solid British English. But then, currently there is need to be judgemental about the competing forces. There is on one side the national governments of Sri Lanka and its supporting nations. All of them are controlled by neck-deep-in-corruption bureaucracies with feudal attitudes to their own citizens. Their armed forces cannot be trusted to be fair even to their own citizens and their possessions and women. Their idea of nationhood is to inflict their nationality over persons who don’t want it. If the English nations stand by these ignoble persons, then it might be a crime that the gods may not condone.


Give no quarter and expect none

On the other side is a group that that show stolid resilience and unity. It is possible to see inhuman behaviour on their side also, but then, the period is that of war with enemies who also will show scarce concern to human dignity. It is not a war with an English nation. Beyond that, Prabhakaran has not made any claim that he is Prophet Mohammad, who was an epitome of forgiveness and compassion. Moreover, this side does also not have a history of mass rape. Nor have they been fanatic about anything other than their own independence.


The nitwit

There was this reporter in an Indian English newspaper saying that the LTTE tells ‘the gullible female fighters to fight till they die and not surrender if they are cornered, for if they surrender they will have to face rape and molesting for days on end. Therefore, the foolish female fighter fight till they die’.


I hope this man’s female relative do not get into the hands of inimical armed forces, and have a chance to see if death is better than surrender.


The child soldiers

Then there is the issue of LTTE using child soldiers. Well, when what would an English child do when this father is being quartered and his mother being pounced upon by fiends. I don’t think that he would see it a correct stand as a minor to stand and enjoy the spectacle that would unfold. His rightful course of action would be to defend his parents. I think that there were soldiers of very young age even during the American Civil War. An injury or death is war is equally painful to both children as well as to adults.


A possible difference in code structure

Now another thing about the Tamils. Their language is feudal, and their social behaviour can be very stifling to those of the lower classes as seen in Tamil nadu. I think the Sri Lankan Tamil may have a slight bit of difference, in word arrangements, even though I am not sure about it. I suspect this from the level of efficiency and camaraderie they have been able to display.

The uncommon fidelity

Now, there is another aspect about Tamils. They are extremely loyal to those they respect and show deference. I am sure that Robert Clive, one of the greatest of British colonial officials, can vouch for this. I think that it was the Tamilian soldiery that stood by him through thick and thin, with supernatural levels of military fidelity that led to his victory in battles in unfamiliar geographical locations.


A stupid generalisation

After the September 11 attack on WTC, America went into a paranoiac feel that all fights against any government anywhere in the world is an attack on American soil, and entered LTTE into the list of terrorist organisations. The word ‘terrorist’ is a very relative word. To give a very generalised meaning to this word is an utter stupidity. It happens when persons who have the mental demeanour similar to that of an Indian woman police constable takes part in policy decisions. (I have hopes that Barack Obama will bring in changes).


For example, Bhagat Singh who shot a British police constable mistaking him for the Special Superintendent of Police, was a terrorist for the British, and he was hanged. To present day India, he is a super hero.


An ally in the offing

Both Britain and America are currently engaged in fights to impose democracy in areas where such a code is not there in the local languages. Instead of wasting their resources in such thankless endeavours, if they could propose that the Tamils should be left alone, in years to come, in the Tamil chronicles they would be adorned with heroic devotion and worship. It might be a befitting repayment for the fidelity they showed to the legions of the British Empire in its teething years. They would even garner a very dependable ally in the uncharted paths to the future. Not the opportunistic sycophants that currently hang on to their necks like millstones.


Continued:


It is the urgent need of the hour that military help is extended to the LTTE. Identifying freedom struggle with terrorism is idiotism. Britain has a moral duty to at least say a few words cautioning the Sri Lankan terrorists. It is Britain, which left un-combinable ethnic groups in an encasement and handed over huge military organisations in the hands of majority population.


As to the LTTE killing Rajiv Gandhi, it is questionable what right Gandhi had to sent Indian troops to kill Tamilians, when they had no enmity with India.


The LTTE leader Prabakaran stands in the same position that Robert Clive experienced in Arcot. It is stupid to ask him to surrender, for as was possible in the case of Robert Clive, if he surrenders, he will be beaten to a pulp by the Sir Lankan lower grade soldiers. It will not be a case like when Saddam Hussein surrendered to the US army.


Sri Lanka is no doubt a fully corrupt nation, and there is no doubt that civilians caught in their hands will have a terrible time, especially girls and young women. This is a time for showing courage in the face of nonsense rhetoric. Moreover giving the Sri Lankans leeway to carry on their murderous actions is a irresponsible thing. For, once they come into financial and military power, they will simply come over to compete in the power game. The difference here is that the Tamils have not aimed for the occupation or domination of the main land Lanka, but simply asked the Lankans to keep their hands off them. Believe me: if the Lankans in the future try to lay their hands on the British also, the British will also react on similar lines.


It is true that the Tamils civilians are fed up of fighting. But, the Sri Lankan civilians are not!!!


Lend a hand, at least verbally, to persons with obvious fortitude, before it is too late.

Continued:


Sri Lankan armed personnel were seen sending rockets and shells in a most joyous mood into thickly populated civilian areas of North Ceylon. Their leaders can’t feign ignorance of the causalities they are showering on the civilians, men, women and children. If for nothing else, they can rightfully be arrested for war crimes, and atrocities on human beings.


The Sri Lankans have successfully indoctrinated the world that the Tigers are the terrorists, while they themselves, who want to dominate others, are the good guys. It is a tragedy that lies embedded in the modern subject called International Relations, wherein persons appear in opposite forms.


Two Tiger leaders have surrendered. They are being questioned. What is the quality of this questioning? When Saddam Hussein surrendered to the US and was shown showing his teeth to a US army doctor, the Indian media made an outcry about this humiliating scene of a surrendered leader. Now, will the Sri Lankan army similarly take these surrendered leaders to some doctor, or torture them to eek out the information? Is use of torture permissible? If so, then what is the issue of Gautemala Prison camp, where extremely silly things were done to the prisoners; and still there was a world outcry?


It is the duty of Britain (which handed over the Tamilians to these brutes) to say ‘enough is enough’ and request all its allies to step in and crush Sri Lanka. Otherwise, any time in the future, any British official gets caught in Sri Lankan hands will also suffer same level of torture.


Continued


I have the curious experience of being blocked on most Indian, Sri Lankan, and even far-east sites, when I started commenting on Sri Lankan versus Tamil Tiger issues. They would allow much profanity, abusive words, downright expletives, sexual innuendoes in the form of threats and much else. There is no problem. Yet, the moment I put in a word in most polite expressions, I become a pariah.


Yesterday, when the news of Prabhakaran’s death came:


I put in this comment on an Indian newspaper site:


QUOTE

If Prabhakaran is indeed dead, it is the death of one of the greatest military and civil administration geniuses, this sub continent has ever produced. In terms of sheer bravery also, he stands unmatched. As to the fidelity shown by his group, both men and women, it is of the unbelievable levels. They fought on, in spite of the knowledge that it was a hopeless situation. Help should have come, but it never came. The US and the UK are filled with the governing elites of the other nations, who can swing the foreign policy or at least neutralize it, to levels of impotence. The US could very well see throught the satellites, the way the people in north Ceylon were being killed using brutal fire-power, in an unequal fight. Just to assuage the ego problem of some Sri Lankan leaders that they could get even with one man, the Sri Lankan army went on to kill and maim an untold number of men, women and children. The US has the military and economic power to stop this; but they have been held hostage by shallow academic understanding of realities. The blood of the dieing people will be on the hands on each and every Sri Lankan alive (Buddhists, they are?). If the world doesn’t punish them, then there is nemesis awaiting them. For the gods will not close their eyes on this cruelty. Liberty is every man’s birthright. No man can be compelled to be part of a nation, he or she does not mentally belong to.



In reply to another comment, comparing American Civil War to the current fight, I commented thus:


QUOTE

To ———: America is an English speaking nation. Not a feudal Sinhala language speaking nation. The long term affect and the social logic are different. Lincoln might have fought to stop slavery, but in the present situation, what the Sri Lankans are trying to do is the opposite.


Both came online immediately, but within half an hour both were removed.


As to Prabhakaran’s death, I am still intrigued by the fact that they are not displaying his body.


I wrote about the LTTE in this site because I did sense the urgency of the moment, that they required help. Maybe it is not properly understood at this time in history, that Britain also stands in the same position as LTTE. For, Britain is increasingly become a minority in a world with an exploding population, and the British themselves have propagated a most dangerous theme of democracy to the world. Democracy will simply turn out to be a rule by the majority mob, with no premium for quality and culture!


As to the Asian Tribune, what ‘Asian study’ are they doing is my wonder!

QUOTE (dsbsolihull @ May 19 2009, 09:19 PM)

You write about a man that was/is a terrorist? A man who invented the suicide bomber?


The LTTE started the problem and hopefully the end of that problem has been achieved, they did no service to the Tamils or anyone else - good riddance!


I had not simply written about a man you describe as a terrorist, but given a lot of background information about events that led to the conflict. However, at the end of all it, the clockwork mechanism seems to come alive and repeat again ‘terrorist!’


To reply to the question that I am writing about a ‘terrorist’, I have to know your ethnicity. It depends on whether you are a native Briton, or one of the others from outside who currently masquerades as a Briton. If it is a native-Briton, then the answer is that if you read any Indian academic history book, the British are a nation of international terrorists and looters. Everything that Britain has is what has been stolen from other nations. Many youngsters have told me in no uncertain terms that they would seek to avenge the wrongs done to India by Britain in more or less the same manner that Sri Lankans had committed in North Ceylon.


I just mention this to say that the word ‘terrorist’ and such other words are just relative and depend on who is talking about whom.


If you are a Briton by domicile, then your words are only a reflection of your native nation propaganda.


Now to the general reader here:

Why do people feel that they are second-class? There are reasons in Asian nations that are exactly the opposite of what is the reason that some persons feel the same in English nations.

The second part I will not discuss here. A single point about the first I will say here.


QUOTE

Look at this situation: A doctor is working in a public hospital in an Indian village. He is sitting in the consulting room with a lot of people standing all around him. The peon comes inside. The doctor says, ‘Why are you late?’

The peon smiles and gives a reply.


Now another day. The peon is standing inside the consulting room with a lot of patients waiting for the doctor. The doctor comes. The peon says, ‘Why are you late?’


The situation turns horrible for the doctor. He literally wants to vanish from the scene. If he could, he would have killed the peon.


What went wrong? In the conversation given above, there is nothing that can be detected that can create an explosive situation.


Well, that is the problem with English. It can detect so many mentally traumatising issues inside Asian nations.


However, if the scene is described in the local vernacular, the issue can be understood.


In the first scene, the doctor asks, ‘Why are you late?’ Here he can very well use the lower indicant words for ‘you’, which can be ‘thoo’ or ‘nee’ etc.


In the second scene, the situation turns violent, if the peon also uses the same level of indicant word for you. The doctor cannot exist there. He has to literally disappear from the scene. For the word would have cut him into two pieces.


Actually, nothing of this sort will usually happen in an Indian hospital. For, there are proper slots from where each person will communicate.


Now, can the native English reader understand the issue here? I doubt. Others have bitterly wept at their inability to convey what is India/Asia to the stay-at-home Englishman. For example, when Robert Clive tried to explain India by saying the India is a totally different world, the local politicians in England attacked him saying to the effect, that god’s truth is the same everywhere. What is right in England is right all over the world!!!


I can explain the issue in the context of the Sri Lankan attack on Tamils. There is was/is a lady colonel (naturally a senior commander) in the LTTE army. Suppose she surrendered to the Sri Lankan army. What will be the level of addressing to her? It is not like an English communication. She will be addressed at the level of ‘Nee/thoo’ and the word she will be ‘Aval’ , ‘edi’ and other similar words. Once this communication link is set up, she is more or less a piece of dirt, especially when the lower level Sri Lankan soldier does it. There is no more human dignity to be expected.


Now, this is the case on either side. What transpires is that mutual dignified communication becomes more or less impossible. Now, the defeated Tamils as a group will have to bear the same level of communication. It needs to be understood that the areas under LTTE rule is not a tribal area. People are living civilised life, with modern commercial activity.


Now about the charge of using human shields. Well, LTTE is composed of people from the locality. The cadres’ parents, brothers, sisters and kinfolk will be there. To say that they should leave them in the lurch and run away is not the traditional manner of British thinking, I believe; unless it has been corrupted. For, when Hitler went on bombing London, that was more or less what he wanted. That the RAF should be kept apart from the civilian population so that his planes can single-mindedly destroy them.


Again let us look at the same charge. The Sri Lankan army are bombing and shelling the ‘human shields’ saying that they are giving protection to the LTTE. Their excuse for this heinous action is that the LTTE is holding them as hostage, and so ‘we will have to kill them’. It is a typical feudal language mental mood.


Look at it like this. Suppose the LTTE is holding the family members of the Sri Lankan president and his ministers as hostage and human shields. Will the Sri Lankan army continue the shelling saying that they are giving protection to the LTTE? Well, the answer is that they will be maimed and killed, as only if they are the Tamils.


Then there is the loose talk comparing all state terrorism with the American Civil war, wherein Lincoln successfully defeated the secessionists. It is an entirely different world, that of English. As different from the current world in context, as heaven is different from hell.

Moreover, he was fighting to stop slavery; here the fight is to impose dominance over unwilling people. There is absolute reversal of characters.


What about the American war for independence? Retrospectively speaking Washington was on a most foolish programme. To fight against his mother nation. It is similar to what LTTE is doing, yet, what was his grievance, other than some ego problem? In the case of the LTTE, the grievances are more solid.


Then the charge of ‘inventing suicide bombers’. Well, using suicide attackers in war is not a new practise. I know of similar persons, exponents in the marital arts of kalari who are said to have been used thus in ancient south India. Japan did use such pilots in Second World War to crash into British/American warships to get 100 percent results.


Kalari suicide attackers used swords, for bombs were not there in those times. Japan filled the planes with bombs so that the ammunition filled Allied warships simply burst in flames when the planes hit them.


Even Britain did make use of personnel who went on missions wherein return alive was more or less an impossibility.


Now, why was LTTE branded as a terror organisation? I see the only reason is the killing of Rajiv. Looking back one gets a wrong impression about Rajiv. He came to power, just because his mother was killed. The sympathy wave! In the next election, he lost superbly. In the next election also, he was losing, for the results of the voting that took place before his death shows that pattern. However, his death was a requirement for the Congress, otherwise they would be send to oblivion.


Now, why was he killed? Well, look at the issue. He sent the Indian army who took to killing the Tamils. A well-trained LTTE soldiery meant to defend the place from the attack from the Sri Lankan army was more or less decimated. A generation of committed youngsters both male and female were maimed and killed. On the Indian side also, immense soldiers died or were maimed for life. Who gave the advice to Rajiv to kill the Tamils and to squander the life of the Indian soldiery? He was just a novice and also a most immature person. And very egoistic.


Many persons connect him with the modernisation of India. Actually, it is not the feat of Rajiv, but that of Narasimha Rao, another Prime Minister of India, who maintained a low profile physically, but was mentally brilliant and quite farseeing.


Now look at Churchill’s speech during the Second World War: I have nothing to offer, but blood, toil, tears and sweat’.

And his words, ‘We shall fight in France, we shall fight on seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender’.


What is different in spirit in these dialogues from Prabhakaran’s speech? Actually, Churchill can stand accused of putting British lives to risk. Even Britain won the war with external help.


In the case of the LTTE, they withstood the swarming enemies for more than twenty-five years; and still maintained a relatively good social system.


It is sheer courage and daring. Don’t go yellow and green, man, when you see such supernatural levels of bravery!


Before concluding, may I request the reader to view a less than 24 second video on a tribal revolt in India, a few years back. They had only bows and arrows; they did not kill anyone until the police attacked them. One policeman was killed. It seems that their sovereignty had been bequeathed to the Indian government by the British! Video

Reports are coming in that Prabhakaran was tortured to death by the Sri Lankan army. How could this happen? They must have used the sly Asian (feudal language) technique of using consolatory tone, and then once the person is in their trap, the indicant words change. Then it is literally hell. The Sri Lankan President had said that he would be satiated only when he has Prabhakaran beg on his knees. It is possible that this was an aim that was well planned. They could have very well planned to convey and impression that International observers are there to facilitate surrender as per international laws. This could very well explain why there was a massacre of all who surrendered. So, no one could bear witness to what really happened. Even the presence of Prabhakaran’s father at the venue could point to this conspiracy. Others, including even certain UN personnel could have participated in the false dealing and façade.


It has been reported in the Times of India (a frivolous chatterbox newspaper from Delhi) that US military had acted in close collaboration with the Indian army to help the Sri Lankan military to incapacitate the LTTE in its last days. Could it be true? Click here. English armies working in collaboration with Asian feudal language armies is equivalent to attiring themselves in satanic robes.


For a comparison, just see what happened to Napoleon. He had been described as a monster by the French royalist media. Yet, when defeat was imminent he went over to the British ship HMS Bellerophon on 15th July 1815, and surrounded. He was well treated. Would Napoleon have done the same if he had to surrender to the Prussian or Indian or Sri Lankan army?


Now, what about Prabhakaran’s wife and children, including daughter? There is also a possibility that they are in Sri Lankan army hands. It is like the case of Ghengis Khan. He had once said that the greatest sensual pleasure he could derive was to have the wives and daughters of his enemies forced to enjoy his fornication, and bear his mental subjugation. This subjugation and slavery can only be understood from a framework of feudal words. It is not like the case of Negro slavery, wherein the slaves mentally got elevated to demand equality. In Asian feudal languages, enslaved persons feel the correctness of enslavement!


It is the divine duty of English nations to see that Sri Lankan criminals are led to the long rope. England has stained its glorious historical reputation by handing over huge geographical areas along with well organised military and police machines to untested persons, of very obviously dubious cultural quality.


Beyond all this, there is the grave mistake of modern political thought equating nationality with geographical borders. It is not a correct parameter, and could lead to incorrect political supremacy, of undeserving hooligan mobs. It is good that miniscule England understand this, when there is still time.


As for America, it is a nation that is progressively losing touch with its national interests and is slowing moving to be a nation who governmental policies are at the beck and call, and control of outside feudal nationalities.
