Horror In Sri Lanka
61 schoolgirls killed in air strikes by Sri Lankan military
Update, August 22nd: Conspiracy Nation had erroneously reported that "The Tamil Tigers are not a bunch of nut cases blowing themselves up." It has since been learned that suicide bombers are a "weapon of choice for Sri Lanka rebels." (Reuters, Aug. 20, 2006. http://in.news.yahoo.com/060820/137/66syh.html) Conspiracy Nation regrets the error.
(Conspiracy Nation, 08/21/06) -- While the world's eyes are turned towards the Middle East, a situation of stunning social insanity unfolds in Sri Lanka. Alerted to the fact that Sri Lanka, also known as Ceylon, could well be the site of the world's oldest civilization, Conspiracy Nation has begun to delve into the matter. In the process, it has been learned that 61 innocent schoolgirls were needlessly slaughtered by the Sri Lankan military on or about August 14th of this year.

The Sri Lankan establishment is cracking down on the Tamil peoples, who seek a separate homeland for themselves. This latest is just an iota of the repression these people have suffered.
It is widely believed that the original Tamil people originated from a lost land to the south, now submerged by ocean. This lost land is called by them, "Kumarikandam." (See also "Tamil Tigers Defend Lemuria," http://www.shout.net/~bigred/Tamil.html)
The Tamil, as noted, descend from an ancient people. What one author calls the "Aryan Invasion Mythology," presumes that "Indian civilisation only began when the alleged Aryans allegedly invaded India in 1500 BCE!" (http://us.rediff.com/news/2003/jul/10rajeev.htm) The true history of India was suppressed, stolen and modified by Aryan invaders who arrived relatively late. They took the authentic Tamil history and claimed it was their, the Aryans', history. In this way they solidified their claim to the conquered land.
Awakening from centuries of slumber, the Tamil people began to re-appreciate their culture. This led to the desire for a Tamil homeland, in Ceylon.
But the Empire of the Brahmin Caste refused the humble wishes of these people. Tensions mounted. Eventually, the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) was formed, to insist upon liberty for the Tamil people.
On July 26th, in Canada, a huge rally in support of Tamil liberation was held. Mr. Tim Dobson, of the Conservative Party, recounted the "senseless violence against the Tamil people of Sri Lanka" that occurred in 1956, 1958, 1961, 1974, 1977 and in 1983.

Faced with increasing repression, the Tamil Tigers (LTTE) began to fight back. In "Eelam War III," which culminated in 2002, a military power equilibrium between the armed forces of the Government of Sri Lanka (GoSL) and the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) was achieved.

Now, it is feared, an "Eelam War IV" could be erupting. There have been brutal attacks on Tamil journalists and publications. Continued ground and air attacks by the Sri Lanka armed forces caused the Tamil Tigers to warn, "Sri Lanka's undeclared war is on the verge of becoming a declared war."
The Tamil Tigers are a skilled fighting force which has been running circles around the soldiers of the oafish Brahmin dolts. If LTTE's defense is compromised at a battlefront, they open one or more new fronts, forcing the fighting enemy's focus onto multiple fronts, disabling the enemy's efforts to concentrate on a single battlefront.
Infuriated, the Empire of the Brahmin Caste, like a maddened dinosaur, has begun thrashing and stomping in all directions. It was this rabid behavior which caused 61 schoolgirls to be killed and 150 others to be wounded when Sri Lankan Kfir jets bombed a children's home compound.
Officials of the Liberation Tigers’ Peace Secretariat, briefing reporters in Kilinochchi, described the attack as "a horrible act of terror" by the Sri Lankan armed forces. They condemned the "deliberate, cold-blooded and inhumane" targeting of the schoolgirls compound by the daylight air raid. Liberation Tigers called upon the UN’s child agency, UNICEF, and international truce monitors to visit the scene of the carnage. (http://www.eelam.com/2006/Chencholai_airstrike_140806.html)
Calling such acts "extrajudicial killings," Canadian parliamentarian Ms. Albina Guarnieri condemned Sri Lankan atrocities. And Mr. Raymond Cho, a Toronto city councilor, perceptively added, "We seriously have to redefine terrorism. A government can terrorize and kill innocent people saying it’s trying to bring freedom and democracy, law and order. But if a small number of civilians try to protect their rights they’re labeled as terrorists." (http://www.tamilnet.com/art.html?catid=13&artid=18932)
