By S. V. Kirubaharan –
First of all let me give a brief introduction about myself. In the 1980s I was one of the people who wrote a few articles and letters to Editors of various newspapers, justifying India’s support to the Tamils including Indian food drops in Jaffna. Then, I became a victim of both Sri Lanka security forces and the IPKF. Not as a person who was fighting against them or for any political involvement. Our house was looted as were those of many others and valuable items including a few sovereigns of gold worth a few hundred thousand (Lakhs) of rupees were taken.
Despite these experiences I am not prejudiced against India. Of course, I have strong reservations however, about the aggressive governments of Sri Lanka. Talking about what happened to me personally is neither going to isolate India in the international arena nor is it going to achieve the Tamil Nation getting its independence.
I can still identify the Indian soldiers but not the Sri Lankan soldiers who were responsible for looting our house. It is a long story.
I am one of thousands who, whatever their personal circumstances, believe that only India can save the Tamils in the island of Sri Lanka. Also India has a legal obligation.
As I have written in a few recent articles, both parties took revenge on each other and Sri Lanka benefited from this situation. Enough is enough!
I said in one article that, “India was very keen in taking revenge without realising the consequences and now India has lost the region to third and fourth parties.”
Now let me tell you that this open letter may give rise to me being targeted sooner rather than later. I am prepared to face the consequences.
Ladies and gentlemen,
Let us turn the pages of the book written by D. R. Kaarthikeyan (Inspector General of Police and Chief of the Special Investigation Team – SIT) and Radhavinod Raju entitled “The Rajiv Gandhi Assassination”. In this book, in Chapter -14, Kaarthikeyan’s “My visit to Sri Lanka during IPKF operations” (p.186 -199) should be re-visited by Indian decision makers.
Even after so many decades of bloodshed and casualties on all sides – why has no peaceful political solution been found for the Tamils in Sri Lanka?
India is a regional super-power, yet has not found a remedy for the situation which it is obliged to solve.
Can India ignore what is happening to the Tamils in Sri Lanka? It is an open fact that for obvious reasons India played a major role in supporting Sri Lanka in bringing this armed conflict / war to an end.
What has India achieved today by helping Sri Lanka in the recent past or even earlier? As Kaarthikeyan’s book states, “No one is grateful for what India did by spending a huge amount of money!”
Why is India silent? Is it because Tamils are Dravidians and the Singhalese are considered to be an Aryan race?
None of the Tamils are asking India to come and save them from the day to day atrocities that they undergo in the North and East. In fact, it continues to be a very dangerous situation.
They earnestly appeal to India to implement the Indo-Lanka accord signed in 1987, which gave rise to certain expectations and a sense of relief from atrocities.
I have learned that Doctors do not prescribe any medicines for fever, for those who suffer from ulcers. The Doctors’ logic is that when the ulcer is cured, the fever disappears.
It is the same logic here. If India can implement the Indo-Lanka accord, many problems that people face in the North and East would be brought under control.
Each day, the Tamils in Sri Lanka become more and more enslaved and move even further away from statehood. India’s involvement backed with legal authority is needed at the earliest.
If you think of involving yourself later, you could be accused of violating international law. The Indo-Lanka accord is still credible and has not been cancelled by either party. Of course Sri Lanka has violated it on numerous occasions.
D. R. Kaarthikeyan’s book (p.212) clearly indicates that the Indo-Lanka accord had the approval of the Indian parliament. It was not brought into being for the personal benefit of any Indian leader.
Your silence and reluctance to implement the Indo-Lanka accord is giving out wrong signals and full licence to Sri Lanka to carry out mass murders, abductions, rapes and gang rapes of Tamils.
If you fail to understand this reality, there will be a day when you will realise that you waited too long to intervene. By that time the problem will be on your doorstep, and will certainly destabilise your country and the region.
Hope India has not forgotten that, initially when the IPKF arrived in Jaffna, the people there, cordially welcomed them with open arms as their saviours.
What is your response?
Are you going to be a spectator and allow the Sri Lankan government to wipe out the Tamil Nation and permit Sinhala colonisation in the North and East?.
If so, this will be another enormous mistake. Once the North and East become the land of the Sinhala Buddhist settlers, the next target will be India with the help of third and fourth parties. Then where will you end up?
A serious mistake should not, yet again lead to another blunder. India wake-up!
Support the people to whom you gave a solemn promise and guarantee that you would protect their political rights and interests.
Sri Lanka has a double tongue, double standards and has shifted the goal posts routinely during this long drawn-out ethnic conflict.
The sooner you act, the sooner the hardship of the people in the North and East will come to an end. Do remember that your involvement in this conflict will not be seen as an “intervention”, it will be a legitimate act of utmost and urgent importance.
If Sri Lanka disagrees with your involvement, you can take this matter to the world court, because the breaching of an international agreement (Indo-Lanka accord) is causing regional instability.
Regarding the third and fourth parties, it is worth bearing in mind that during the last Indo-Pakistan war, Sri Lanka made their International airport available to Pakistan and China is against the Tibetan’s non-violent freedom struggle.
Ahmed Nadvi / January 10, 2013
Hi, Kirubaharan,
I don’t think you’ve understood the Geo-politics very well. You’ve not put any persuasive arguments as to India’s direct involvement in splitting up the motherland Sri Lanka or paving a path to that direction.
India has a lot of things to worry about than Sri Lankan Tamils. Don’t waste your time in dreaming that one day India would invade Sri Lanka or do anything which may please you.
In my opinion you have full right in Sri Lanka as a fellow Sri Lankan citizen and you should fight for it. What is missing in you is that you’re not aligned with right people or party.
/
Bedrock Barney / January 11, 2013
Agreed. Geo Politics is something Kiruba is going to have to work on. All these arguments have been made before and question have been asked. Nothing new here.
On the flip side the way this regime is going about doing thing an autonomous region within a united SL might be delivered on platter to the Tamil speaking people. In the extremely unlikely event that does, who in the Tamil leadership could the Tamil people Trust? Other than Mr Sumanthiran, I don’t see anyone else.
/
Sunil / January 11, 2013
Who the hell are you to promise this to the Tamils?
Are you the President, politician, chief justice of SL?
Tamil will get balls from any of these Chauvanists governments. From DS Senanayake to Rajapaksa, everyone took Tamils for a ride. The leftist were the worst.
LSSP, CP, JVP were the worst racist than other political parties in SL.
By the way, where is this Mango fellow?
All of a sudden he has disappeared. He has some personel grude on Kirubaharan.
We should find out the reason of animocity between Kirubaharan and so called Mango.
Is his disappearance is due to his identity was disclosed.
Poor Off Licencse business man was a one time reporter to one of racist English news paper in SL writing fiction to earn his living.
D.R. is the abrivation of his name but some people thought that he is a Doctor.
Yes he is Doctor in making money by …………
/
Bedrock Barney / January 11, 2013
Poor angry you. Typical. There is a constitutional crisis making news and all can think about are Mangoes? Forget Mangoes. What is being said here is that the theme in all kiruba’s articles is to prove that the GOSL is untrustworthy. WE all know that they are. It is like watching a child’s learning curve.
/
Mango / January 22, 2013
Mr Kirubaharan’s delusions are getting ever more serious. Why on earth would the Indian government listen to the self-pitying whining of an LTTE front, ‘human rights’ expert? This is a confused, contradictory piece.. very odd indeed. I’m of course very sorry for his personal loss.
@ Sunil,
Thanks for your concern. I was on a little trip to the East; Trinco, Passekudah etc. Very interesting.
I don’t have a grudge against the wonderful humanitarian Mr Kirubaharan, only at analysing his bizarre and illogical proclamations, which are almost as idiotic as those emanating from GoSL. For the millionth time, I’m not a doctor or a professor from Peradeniya Uni. :) :)

Wuliangguobinjiu / January 11, 2013
Ahmed:”You’ve not put any persuasive arguments as to India’s direct involvement in splitting up the motherland Sri Lanka or paving a path to that direction.”
India never wanted to split because 2 million died in the partition of its land by the Americans in 1947 at the hands of the islamist thieves.Common sense Islam is middle east not sub-continent idea.Take it all and have less problems of border control.
You don’t even speak Hindi or Punjabi to talk how Delhi thinks. For the past 60 years “India run by the Brahmins” has developed the most engineering projects in the Middle East than Pakistan can dream of therefore the I.C. has awarded India the reconstruction of Afghanistan (most Afghans studied in India not pakistan) The US needs Chinese money to fight the Chinese and presently China is in bad shape and unrest with unemployment on the rise and folk revolting against the party. So don’t count on China for support because they are religiously drawing up local plans. Having personally seen the effect on Nepal when Sonia closed the borders for 2 years and the Chinese help the Hindu Kingdom Nepal received because they are Chinese looking. Then Sikkim, Nagaland renouncing its independence and becoming Indian states and now Bhutan the Buddhist Kingdom awaiting its fate.
So the best thing that can happen is:
Lanka becoming the Sinhala Buddhist State of India in the near future.
After all Gautama was an Indian not a Saudi mullah churning out Sharia law. Why not join the economic power than send you mum and sisters to be fked and beheaded by 2 legged animals in Saudi? The Muslims in Lanka also came from North India because of the Mughal conquest. India can afford to negotiate it with the IC because of its multilateral clout and the IC needing business opportunity.
/
David / January 11, 2013
For last so many years we are experiencing what Kirubaharan has predicted coming right.
So don’t waste time by diverting his predictions.
Tell us anything other than Tamils has better rights than Singhalese in the island – right to be killed, right to be raped, right to be detained, right to be colonised, right to be convert their religion, right to ………….
You are talking bullshit.
Kirubaharan’s appeal is wonderful.
He is right. India has obligation to settle this ethnic conflict.
Lets wait see.
/
Kanages / January 11, 2013
You name looks like a Muslim, may from Sri Lanka.
If you really for united Sri Lanka, Ccn you tell the sufferings that muslims in Sri Lanka are undergoing.
Give us few years. The separate state demand from the Muslims in Sri Lanka will become worse than Tamils.
Are you aware that there is a Muslims arms group working in Sri Lanka with the support of Pakistan.
Do you know that the few Sri Lanka muslims has already started their lobby among the Islamic countries in the middle east.
Rather than wasting your time about the Tamils, do look after your community.
/
JULAAMPITYE AMARAYA / January 11, 2013
To mr Ahmed And To Mr Kirubahran,
I agree with you two to some extent;
but entirely against of kiruba’s idea of India can save the Tamils of sri lanka and legal obligation of India’s involvement of Sri lankan affairs.
first YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND THAT, NOBODY HAS ANY OBLIGATION TO INTERFERE THE AFFAIRS OF YOUR MOTHER COUNTRY OR ADOPTED COUNTRY FRANCE.
YOUR MOTHER COUNTRY SRI LANKA IS NOT AN INDIAN STATE. BUT AN INDEPENDENT COUNTRY WHICH INDIAN WANTS TO DESTABILIZE AND DESTROY.
BECAUSE THEY KNOW VERY WELL THAT WE, SRI LANKANS. I MEAN WE SINHALESE TAMILS MUSLIMS AND OTHER RACES ARE NOT GOING TO OBEY THEIR RULE AND NOT LIKE INDIANS WHO ARE HALF BAKED AS PER THE PERCENTAGE OF THE POPULATION.
AND INDIAN GOVERNMENT WANTS TO SPEND BILLIONS OF RS TO DESTROY ANY NEIGHBORING COUNTRY TO DO THEIR OWN BUSINESS,
THAT IS AN OPEN BUDGET TO SPECIAL INTELLIGENCE.
AND TEHY THEY HAVE PRIORITIES, NOW LIKE MALDIVES AND NEPAL.
SRILAKAN BRANCH IS VERY BUSY SEPARATELY.
MR KIRUBA;
YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND THAT SINCE INDIRA GANDHI’S GOVERNANCE,
ONCE THEY MADE A SOUP AND THEY HAD IT.
DO NOT LET TO HAVE A NEXT CHANCE.
THEY WERE AFRAID OF THAT SRI LANKA BECOMING ANOTHER SINGAPORE, WHICH BECAME A THREAT TO MALAYSIA.
THE CUNNING BUREAUCRATS OF INDIAN GOVERNMENT HATCHED THE PLAN TO START COMMUNAL / RACIAL PARTITIONS OF OUR POLITICIANS AND PEOPLE OF ALL COMMUNITIES.
THE INDIANS HAVE THEIR OWN PROBLES NOW,
THEY TRY TO DIVDE US BUT FAILED.
NOW THEY ARE TRYING TO GET CLOSE AND DESTROY.
VISVALINGAM KIRUBAHRAN, CANT YOU UNDERSTAND THAT,
AND ARE YOU GOING TO BE AN ANOTHER JARAPASSA.
AND GOING TO DESTROY THE NEXT GENERATIONS OF TAMILS AND SINHALESE, MUSLIMS GIVING THEM DEAD ROPES.
CANT YOU SEE WHAT THESE IDIOTIC POLITICIANS ARE GOING TO DO TO YOUR MOTHER COUNTRY.
YOU DID NOT VISIT TO SRI LANKA RECENTLY.
WE KNOW THE SITUATION HERE IN SRI LANKA.
IF YOU GO TO VANNI, YOU CAN SEE HOW THEY SUFFER.
THE SL GOVERNMENT ROSE-BED IS NOT THERE.
SO HELP THE POOR TAMILS TO GET UP. DO NOT ALLOW THEM FALL IN THE SAME PIT THAT PIRBAHARAN DUG.
LOT OF UNFAIR DEEDS ARE HAPPENING,NOT ONLY TO YOU PEOPLE, , BUT ALSO TO US, SINHALESE TOO.
/
Silva / January 11, 2013
You can give your lectures Mr Ahmed And Mr Kirubahran but not to me.
I also live in Sri Lanka. Do you know the latest report of the French Ambassador who visited Jaffna peninsula? You dont know.
Do you know the report of the Candian Minister who visited Colombo. You don’t know.
Tell us, how long we are going to fool the Tamils?
Leaders after leaders we determined and brought them zero. If you are honest to your heart, tell us what are political rights Tamils have.
Have you ever gone through the speeches of each and every Sinhala politicians of this country?
If we want to live in united Sri Lanka, we cannot simply ignore the Lanka-Indo accord.This will treat the Tamils equally and we can live as brother and sisters.
We should analyse anything on emotional ground.
What you say about India is not acceptable.
Tell us who helped to bring this dirty war to end? If we didnt have the help of India, we still fight this war.
We must accept that as Kirubaharan says we keep on moving the goal post but no solution found to them.
Be honest to your heart and conceious.

JULAAMPITYE AMARAYA / January 12, 2013
mr silva, or ?????.
last month i was in JAFFNA, and visited many ares of VANNI.
I HAVE MORE TAMIL FRIENDS THAN SINHALESE FRIENDS.
I AM NOT A WARMONGER.
I KNEW AND I KNOW HOW THEY SUFFER.
BUT MOST OF OUR POLITICCAS ARE TRY TRYING FOOL THEM AND CRUSH THEM.
THAT IS NOT FAIR TO TREAT FELLOW COUNTRYMEN, HUMANKIND.
BUT TELL ME WHO CARES?????????????????.
the Indians will never wants to help srilanka. they have their own agenda.
definitely, they want to develop their markets, find employment to soaring population and high cast bureaucrats wants tO survive IN THE ARENA,
the real examples are Bangladesh, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Nepal and Maldives.
Bhutan does not have a voice.
all those countries are in crisis, because India spending money and make those governance vulnerable
and TRYING lot of divisions DESTABILIZE THOSE COUNTRIES.
CAN YOU REMEMBER HOW MANY SPIES WERE CLAMORING FOR SRI LANKA’S AFFAIRS FOR THE LAST 30YEARS BEFORE WAR..
you have to GO in depth to analyze and take DECISIONS AND IDEAS..
for my little knowledge i understood that.
last 1986 i was in India for personal matter, and i witnessed, the guys who went for unloading of arms and ammunition for sri lankan rebels FROM INDIA WITH LOVE WITH [COME FROM DELHI TO MADRAS].
from that instant I have the disgusting feelings about those Indian politicos.
and presently i work with many Indians, and they love their country, not like our people.
they wants to help their people, but our guys are not like that.
one more detail to you guys
THE SECOND LEADER/IN-CHARGE OF THE FAILED COUPE/ INTRUSION HAPPENED IN MALDIVES WAS A KNOWN TAMIL PERSON TO ME,
LATER PRES PREMDASA INTERVENED AND GOT THEM RELEASED,
BUT THIS GUY WAS KILLED BY LTTE IN VAUNIYA. after leaving his organisation he divulged many details to me.
so , according to my understanding, these indians will never, ever wants to help us but to themselves only.
please wait and see what is going to happened IF
THEY COME TO SOLVE OUR PROBLEMS,
UNLESS WE ARE NOT UNITED..

James / January 11, 2013
If Indira Gandhi would have reamined in power, the Tamil would have been in UN long ago like Bangladesh.
Rajiv was runing politics like piloting a plane. This made everyone to be in sad a position today.

James / January 11, 2013
Let us go back to your comments. You say that
NOBODY HAS ANY OBLIGATION TO INTERFERE THE AFFAIRS OF YOUR MOTHER COUNTRY OR ADOPTED COUNTRY FRANCE.
Can you tell us what happend in Iraq, Afghnistan and other countries?
Did the colition forces go to Iraq with the mandate of the UN?
If so, what is lacking for India to demand Sri Lanka to impliment the accord that they both have signed in 1987.
Whether Kirubaharan written this or not, it is the duty of the both Sri Lanka and India to impliment.
/
JULAAMPITYE AMARAYA / January 12, 2013
Mr James:
you said;
what is lacking for India to demand Sri Lanka to impliment the accord that they both have signed in 1987?.
they will demand for the accord that was not respected by the people of Sri lanka.
because that so called Indian brokered peace accord is forced fed to then president Jaywardhana.
He did not have any thing to do but to gulf in one go.
if refused, humiliation and invasion of Indian javans to sri lanka with all beedi bundles and goats.
WHEN THEY ARRIVED IN 1987, I WAS IN TRINCOMALEE,
THE DAY BEFORE THIS SO CALLED ACCORD SIGN, INDIANS ARRIVED IN NIGHT TO TRINCOMALEE HARBOUR WITH AN ARMADA OF WAR SHIPS, LANDING CRAFTS HOSPITAL SHIPS AND SO ON.
DO YOU KNOW,THEY HAD A GALA TIME WITH LTTE IN EAST.
AND THOSE JAWANS KILLED CHINA BAY BUDDHIST TEMPLE’S CHIEF PRIEST ALSO.
SO DO YOU EXPECT A BLOOD BATH Again IN SRI LANKA SOIL WITH THOSE INDIANS?.
NOW I UNDERSTAND THAT, THE INDIANS HAVE GOT IDEA TO APPROACH VERY SOFTLY.
INDIAN FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE IS DOING A GOOD JOB ON THAT.
INDIAN COMPANIES WITH SPIES ARE NOW ON OUR SHORES.
AND PRESENT LOOTER’S GOVERNMENT IS GIVE FULL BACKING FOR THEM.
If you [JAMES],MANO,SILVA, AND VISVALINGAM KIRUBAHARAN LIKE THAT IDEA TO INTERVENTION BY INDIA.
PERSONALLY I DONOT WANT INDINAS OR OTHERS TO INTERFEAR IN OUR SRI LANKAN AFFAIRS.BECAUSE THEY WANT TO GET ADVANTAGES OF THE SITUATION.
MOST OF THE PEACE LOVING SRI LANKANS DO NOT LIKE IT EITHER.

Mano / January 11, 2013
Not only India, Sri Lanka too ave its internal problems.
What about the problem of the Chief Justice, Mervyn Silva behind the killing of a Mulim in Kelaniya, Demonstration in the parliment compoun.
I too endosed that only India can save the Tamils in Sri Lanka.
There is a mistake of what Kirubaharan has written. The Sinhalese has no connection to the Ariyan race.
Singhalese are singhalese.

Baby Face Basil is the Biggest Thief Like Big brother MARA.
MARA stole TSUNAMI fund. Bssil stole DIVINEGUMA 85Billion Rupee fund.
Basil lied to the whole world saying there were ONE MILLION TOURISTS CAME TO SRI LANKA LAST YEAR.
I went to Airport six times last two weeks…..but saw only a hand full of tourists (not more than 40 per flight) landing from planes at the Katunayake airport.
TO GET ONE MILLION TOURISTS PER YEAR….YOU NEED 12 FULL PLANE LOADS (2,600) OF TOURISTS SHOULD LAND IN SRI LANKA EVERY DAY…..365 DAYS PER YEAR.
Therefore Big Alibaba (Basil) like his Big Brother Lied and duped the whole world by telling a BIG LIE THAT SRI LANKA RECEIVED ONE MILLION TOURISTS LAST YEAR.
Now Basil plans to steal Divineguma 85 Billion Rupees.
IT’S TIME TO IMPEACH BASIL RAKAPAKSE FOR LYING TO SRI LANKA AND THE WORLD FOR LYING ON ONE MILLION TOURISTS ARRIVAL IN 2012.

Senguttuvan / January 11, 2013
It has to be an ignorant, highly jaundiced Tamil or a residual LTTE extortionist/broker to claim India failed the Lankan Tamil. They lost over a thousand jawans in their delicate task to bring about peace between the Sinhalese and Tamils (Muslims were a latter introduction to the debate and that too by sinister design) which successive Lankan governments failed to accomplish from 1956. If India wanted they could have enabled the bifurcation of the Island, without openly getting involved, and produced valid causes to justify their action in the global area where they are a major player. But despite unfair criticism against them both by governments and opposition parties for many decades they were consistent in ensuring the island’s territorial integrity. The answer is simple – an unstable Sri Lanka is not in the wider interest of India.
Incidentally, I must add while government and opposition leaders sometimes take anti-Indian positions privately and in visits to Indian leaders, they waste no time in assuring the Indians “they are India’s most sincere friends” Some of them even go out to see their children are married into good Indian families. I am aware of a family that fooled most Sinhalese “they enjoy a special bond with the Nehru family”
and this was widely believed. However, when 2 important members of this family died there were no “special visitors from Delhi”
India, quite clearly, will always act in the greater interest of the vast sub-continent and its 1.2 billion people. It is left to us to ensure our leadership and diplomacy does in no way endanger India’s
interest or security. It is also unfortunate some crude rabble-rousers within Cabinet ranks have made provocative statements about India recently, which is unfortunate in that it can have repercussions. This does in no way mean we should play 2nd fiddle to them and I know their High Commissioners have gone in record in media interviews there is no question of condescension.
Fortunately, the leaders of the TNA, Devananda, Chandrahasan and others in the Tamil polity have generally maintained cordial relations with India. As to VP and the LTTE recent history is far well known to be repeated here – except a few ill-informed Tamils within the island and the diaspora mislead themselves India was the cause of the obliteration of a just resistance movement that engaged India’s understanding in the initial stages.

Somewhere in this article you should have cursed prabaharan for slaughtering over 2,000 IPKF soldiers and brutally assassinating Rajiv if you had wanted to get in the good books of India or any favours from India. Without this confession, I would expect the Indian policy makers will chuck this article in the bin. Please rewrite this timely article.
/
Ponnuthurai / January 11, 2013
Hello Bogus Peace,
You talk about any favours from India.
Kirubaharan’s article is not talking about favour from India, his article is clear about obligation.
When you are biased, you can’t understand these differences.
Do you know anything known as Lanka-Indo pact? If not ask someone who knows history.
You talk about 2000 IPKF soldiers were killed and about assasination of Rajiv by VP.
What about the massacre of Tamils by Rajiv lead IPKF.
Do you know the meaning of IPKF = Innocent Public Killing Force.

So you agree that Pirapaharan is more powerful than your Statesmen in India and Sri Lanka.
As Kirubaharan wrote, the Indo-Lanka accord is still credible and has not been cancelled by either party.
If there is a will, there are ways.
But the Sri Lanka state has violated it hundreds of time.

If people like you still hold on to the prabaharan’s tail, India will treat Tamils as enemies because the vast majority of Indians hate him. You should know India has again banned the Tigers yesterday. If Tamils want a meaningful future they must show their back to the Tiger leadership. Nobody – US, EU, Canada, Norway, India- wants the LTTE, but why are still holding on to their tail? You do not have any other better thing to do? P’thurai, the choice is yours. Thank you.

Ever since robbing Tsunami Fund and bribing VP, buying opposition MP’s, bribing Buddhist Monks, Bribing China for illegal and fake contracts and with Black Money Commission he started his illicit Political Business.
Ever since that day, Country was pilfered upto robbing the ancient Kings Swords, coins, rings and Battons from Museum…..and there is nothing left in the country except starving and unemployed population.
In future our children will have to go to China Museum to see those lost items as MARA pak…ya has sold them to China.
MARA export our poor women to Middle East who are been killed there to earn Foreign Exchange to buy Lamborginies to his children.

Well done S. V. Kirubaharan.
This is the wayout from the mess.
Recently I learned a lot about the person (Mango) who was writing lot of comment to your article.
I am anxiously waiting for deadly Mango’s comment.
Is his silence means that contract has been already given?
D.R. Mango and his friend, Rohan G… are good artfull dogers.
They know how to do business and wipe out evidence.
What they both earn is blood money.
They both did a very good job to President Rajapaksa by going closer to KP and introduce his to the Gotabaya’s military wing.
Now they have finish the war successfully through Mango, Rohan G…. and few others.
Such dangerous elemtns.
S. V. Kirubaharan be cautious of this dirty gang.

Mahela – I am told even the large number of visitors from India who stay for a day or two are counted in as tourists – although in the general definition of a tourist he/she should be someone who stay for 5-7 days within the island in a tourist facility paying for their board and lodging from funds brought in from outside Sri Lanka.
Questions have also been raised about this “millionth” tourist coming from Mainland China – now a favoured country of the ruling family who do most of their lout-of-tender procedure business with the Chinese.

In the UN Human rights council, Kirubaharan is better known as an empty vessel and a Comedian. His knowledge of Geo Politics or any other politics is nil. He will claim that he works with everyone (don’t ask me ”what type of work”) and then will make a U turn and say that he was appointed to the UNHRC by a very very powerful person from the LTTE. You can always see him praising himself in his articles as there is none to recognize him. He is just a mouth piece of the LTTE and an entertainer of small minds fostered by the LTTE. Among Sri Lankans in the UNHRC,He is being considered as ”The Mervyn Silva” of the UNHRC. Don’t expect intellectual miracles from Jokers and comedians. LTTE has been cremated and this Comedian is looking for another ”Power” to hang on – India seems to be his best choice. Mind you that he was very loyal to VP when he was alive.

Mithiran / January 11, 2013
Hope you have expressed your anger on Kirubaharan.
Let us wait and see whether he will reply your comment.
We know him since 80s as a human rights person in the UN.
It is normal for anyone of your type to be jealous of him.
Kirubaharan writings proves that he doesnt entertain Bankrupt, emotional and grasroots polics and he doesnt work with him.
If Kirubaharan is a commedian, you are an excellent commedian.
It is very well known that he is an outspoken person of anything and anyone. Did he heart you or said anything bad about you in public.
One thing is sure, “empty vessels makes the most noise”. You are not even an empty vessel, you are vessels with a hole in your brain.
We think long ago Kirubaharan has passed these type of criticisism and barriers.
We know one Mamanithar son is running a bankrupt politics. Now you understand who is the best commedian.
For you using Mamanithar title is an insult to the Tamil Nation and for the reall Mamanithar.
The prove says that “The Tree which has fruits only get stoned. It is the same with Kirubaharan”.
If you have guts challenge Kirubaharan for debate in public, so that we can see who you are and who is the best.

Ponnar Jr.
We can understand your frustration. According to the latest news, even your personal affairs has gone on the rock.
Do remember that you are dealing with a wrong person.
“Those who live in glass houses should not throw stones at others”.
If he comes forward and write all about you, next time you wont get even 500 votes.
It is true that you broke away from a prty because of a Saree which you wear frequently?

This is a mix message.
It may be true that Kirubaharan may not be knowing the Geo politics that you know. We are following his articles he doing very well.
Obviously a man who work since 80s, will praise him.
Whether he praises or not Sri Lanka government is for his blood and they have written enough about him.
How do you know all these about Kirubaharan. Either you must have moved with him closely, you had been kept in distance by him.
I think you may assassinate him before the Sri Lankan government.
You anger on him so visible.
Carm down man. Your writings about him is the index of your heart.

It is very easy to understand the difference between Kirubaharanand you.
He is courageously writing with his reall name and faces the criticism. Whereas you are covering your identity and showing your dirty mind.
Are you scared of Kirubaharan
This itself of prove of his long years of work.

If Kirubaharan is Mervyn Silva, are you Maamanithar Kumar Ponnambalam – may be organising women.

Are you sure it is the son of this particular Maamnithar?
If so, his profile is questionable.

Your writing shows who you are.
You are that Saappaaddu Raman, son of a Maamanithar?
What ever you say, Kirubaharan is our long standing activist.
To our knowldge, so far Kirubaharan has not spoken anything personally about anyone. We do not know what will happen in the future, especially about you.
So let us wait and listen to him about what he is going to say about you.
If you like to have a debate with him in a media, we arrange it for you. It will be in Europe.

Yes of course I’m a Muslim by religion, and I Speak Tamil as my mother tong, can speak Sinhalese, but not fluently. And importantly I’m a Sri Lankan. I believe I have all rights as my Sinhalese fellow citizen or a Tamil fellow citizen enjoy(?)in Sri Lanka. If my rights are denied I’ll fight for it. Accepting it or ignore it may be your right, I have nothing to do with your decision.
I’m appalled to see comments from my fellow citizens with “F…” and “C…” words. Why cannot you all put your opinions, whatever they may be, in a decent manner. Are we not ready to evolve like others like Europeans or Americans? at least in exchanging views. Once we lose our patience then we cannot put across what we think. Guys we’re in 21st century and try to behave accordingly.
Some one has mentioned Saudi-Arabia and Sharia Law unnecessarily. But look guys I promise you all that I will never talk anything which may damage your feelings, will you do so? Then only we all can learn something from others and work together for better Sri Lanka. Hope you all understand.

Mr Maamanithar, Garajan Ponna,
Proffesor in Geo politics, inventor of Tamil Eelam and Tamil Nation.
Wellcome to this forum.
There is no comparison between you and Kirubaharan.
Kirubaharan is top of Himalays and you still in grassroots.
You are an immatured politician, only 12 years in politics. That is also through path of generation politics.
You were introduced into politics by your father’s good friend, a strong member of your grand father’s party Vinayagamoorthy.
Are you greatful to him?
Now let us discuss what has happend in the past.
You were holding candle to Thamilselvan and sneeking about every member of your party. When Thamilselvan was killed, Nadesan kept you in distance because he found that you wanted be in the lime light by telling them bad about every members of your party.
When you father was killed, late Anton Balasingam in London was totally against giving him Maamanithar title. Because, as far as Anton Balasingam is concerned your father did the maximum damaged to the LTTE in then past 80s, along with Douglas Devananda.
Anyhow, to our knowldge some of the diaspora members argued the case with Anton Balasingam and convience Vanni to give this title which you are misuing today.
It is well known that you broke away from your colition party because of a female involement in this affair. I can go into details in a later stage.
Also you could not compete with Sumithiran who is successful Lawyer who has many lawyers working under him.
Now let me conclude. If you have guts, why dont you ask one of the media in any country of choice to have debate with Kirubaharan on Geo politics, Tamil Eelam and Tamil Nation.
Kirubaharan always says that he is ready for debate with anyone who recognised in either in the community or some leve.
This is another problem whether Kirubaharan will agree to have debate with a person who got only 5000 votes in the whole of Jaffna.
Right now, you are fooling the emotional Tamils that Eelam can be achieved. This why Tamils rejected you in the last election.
Now you have planned to sought asylum in one of the Western country. This is the reason you youself motivated the Sri Lanka (Police) anti-terrorism division to call you for an inquiry.
Dont fool the innocent and dont play with the wrong people.
You have miss the bus.
You will never be considered as leader by Eelam Tamils.
Those days you hate Chandraneru of Amparai. With this attitude against the people of East, you are not qualified to be a leader.
If necessary, we will come out with more details when ever it is needed.
Dont expect Kirubaharan to write to you. He consider you as person with hidden agenda in politics.
He has no time to pet you. Those who have pet you have paid the price in the past.
Kirubaharan is a honest person. That is why he still survive.
Long live Kirubaharan.

Nadesan of LTTE kept G.P. in distance because, the LTTE has found that G.P. was using their LTTE name to his glory.
He was telling diaspora that he met V.P. more than 10 times and he will be replacing Anton Balasingam as an advisor of the LTTE.
LTTE also found G. P> weekenesses for – Good food, good alchol, good W…n, good night club and good hotels.
It is laughable such a man is writing about Kirubaharan.
/
Daniel / January 12, 2013
It is unfair for all of you to talk about Gajan P without knowing the right person who attempted to insult Kiruba.
We know that many will ignore what is said by person without right name.
I have lot of sympathy for Gajan.
Presently he is facing lot of difficulties.

Maamanithar
Is it true that you participated in a meeting organised by ENDLF (Indian RAW agents) in Delhi?
Also you consumed lot of liquor and you had a problem in settling the bill.
We thought you are an LTTE support, then why did you attend in an ENDLF meeting.
Members of the ENDLF has some interesting VIDEO of your activites in Delhi during this meeting

Is Kirubaharan himself posting some comments/replies to comments to this very forum with pseudo names, I wonder…….??!!

Bogus Peace
What a wonderful discovery.
You should be rewarded for this discovery.
Is Real Peace is one of Kirubaharan’s pseudo names?

I wonder why you get itchy AH, I wonder…..!!!

Ponnuthurai / January 14, 2013
My itchiness came from you.
We can’t allow you or anyone to insult our long standing friend and hard working Kiruba.
Unlike some of you, he sacrifices his life to his work.
Some of you got your pension and presently working for material benefits with hidden agenda.
From your writing he knows who you are? Do you come from Middle East?

Ponnuthurai / January 14, 2013

Why you are silent now?
Lets have a go.
