I know and agree with you partly. Some of them have infact admitted to being in India, if I am not mistaken. But, we have a situation here, where human life is at stake. Australia can't do this to civilians.
The other thing is, these Australian baboons give the illusion of 'just come here, and you can get asylum'. Remember Canada said some months ago, that they will take any amount of Tamil regufees, and then the Srilankan govt said they will put up stalls in the camps for Canadian authorities to come and accept refugees. Nothing happened. Now we have innocent* people looking for a better life, jumping in boats and trying to seek asylum in Canada and also Australia. What is their response now?
They are treating these people really bad. Look at the pictures, and see, these are not poor shanty people. Most of them look respectable and from good families.
What pathetic two toungued baboons like Australians need to do is, not to send false messages that Australia is Paradise. They are just pathetic primitive baboons.
* Everybody is innocent, until proven guilty. There is no way they can say these people are terrorists, just by looking at them at high sea.
The problem is that host nations are becoming increasingly aware of the erosion of their ‘so called’ values. This is part true and part fallacy. Many of the working classes who make this accusations are pretty cultureless anyway, they have no interest in learning their history or learning about their own literary greats but still feel the presence of immigrants is destructive.

On the other hand – Immigrant communities who only associate with each other and fail to integrate into wider society are kinda destructive. If you come to the UK in places like Tooting, Croydon, Eat Ham even Woolwich – these places are absolutely crawling with Tamils, Somalians, Nigerians, Eastern Europeans, it does become troubling. As a student I got a Job in a fast food outlet, one of the pre-requisites to getting a job was speaking Tamil as all of the cooks were Tamil. Building sites in the UK now advertise for ‘Polish’ foremen as most of the labourers are Polish. Not only does this put locals at a disadvantage but it means that these people are not even making an attempt to learn the language or meet other Brits

The Canadian political parties were using the Tamils to win elections, once the elections are over they are unlikely to be interested in their plight

When the Jewish refugees came here in the late 19th century they stayed together in the East End, speaking Yiddish...now look how well the Jewish people are integrated...give people time to move on, it does seem two or more generations.

Don't get me wrong - Britain is a far more inclusive society than say Australia. But I think the presence of coloured immigrants that are far moree visible give rise to xenophobia. Add to this the anit muslim propaganda we're being fed coupled with the view that all brown people are Muslim fuels this fire even more.

What surpises me is that so much of anti muslim propaganda had been waged in the western media and people living in the west had been bombarded with day in/day out;
why is that Mrs c had not been an anti muslim? What made her so unique surprise me.

This is in the latest report from the US State department on the Lanka Crisis released last week. Your precious Hilary Clinton has had to backtrack on her irresponsible comments and is now very quiet indeed.
The LTTE might be no more, but there are thousand who think like you, and are therefore a threat to everyone, Sinhala and Tamil alike. Remember that the Tigers are the only “freedom fighting” movement to have killed more of their own then the enemy. That says a lot about YOUR people.
And because of your mono ethnic principles, the way you ethnically cleansed the North so only Tamils could live there, the GOSL now has to make sure the ethnic groups of the country are evenly dispersed across the land to avoid another mythical Eelam. Name one town or city in Sri Lankas south that is mono ethnic. There is no where. Because Sri Lanka is for everyone.
There were no Buddha statues in the North because the Tigers tore them down, now they are being re-erected.
The rest of your arguments are merely unsubstantiated propaganda. But I expect no less from you guys.
If there really was Genocide in Sri Lanka, then why are Tamils in the South completely free to move around and do business?
Sri Lankan Tamils belong in Sri Lanka, Tamil Eelamists belong in Tamil Nadu.
When I was in Jaffna in 1981, and we travelled all around the area, I saw not one single Buddhist satue.

All the more reasom to stand in solidarity with Muslims here who do feel very threatend. They feel themselves to be the new Jews of Europe, all because a minority act against their religion and become violent.

The enlightened and civilized West now better informed on the brutality of SL’s human rights/war crimes support the Tamil cause with initiatives to pursue the war crimes perpetrators. The successful SL genocide is attributable to the extra-ordinary story telling capacity of Sinhala/Buddhists who fatally mislead the international community into not acting to censure with stern sanctions or war crimes when the naked brutality of SL’s state terrorism became evident in the May massacre of the resistance the world witnessed. The international community is now at pains to redress the consequences of hastily lumping the Tamil resistance (with Jihardi terrorism; the scourge of the world) to deprive the Tamils of the protection they had against SL’s brutal atrocities for over thirty years.

GAP- You are very inadequate person who has a need and craving to fit into the upper echelon of society. It is absolutely disgraceful your use of the term “crawling” first generation of immigrant communities tends to dwell with in an enclave due to new culture, comfort and economics. The second, third generations always progress and integrate into society. It was the same case in the US the immigrants came into Ellis Island formed their own ghettos whether it be Polish, Ukrainian, Jew, Italian etc. But now the second generation have moved on into various parts of the continental USA. Even though you pretend to be upper class and high flu tent you have the mindset of low working class Chav- if you can get cheap labour from another source why not? Whether it is Polish, Kosovo etc. The employer is willing to put up with Polish, Tamil and any other foreign national why are you so worried. You have the same fear as US auto workers and their unions- that is how it all collapsed as with the British auto industry. GAP, politicians are same everywhere so do not worry about us Canadians. You stick finding a job in fast food outlet where they speak English. If it all gets too much you can always go HOME.

Daily Horoscope for December 26

Capricorn

Mercury retrograde in your sign will cause some friction between you and other people during coming weeks. Matters that have been bubbling away in the background will come to the boil, forcing you to do something about them. Try not to overreact, nor to create a crisis out of something that's really very minor. You should also keep a strong sense of fair play and pay attention to every little detail.
