"Sorry to give you the bad news, but it is your ignorance and and calibre that is being exposed in your various posts."
Then why is the plea for mercy? Leave me to my caliber and ignorance and I will expose your caliber and ignorance in each and every thread and forum :-)

"I will expose your illiteracy and bombastic bravado in every thread and every forum here. "
Raveen,
If u want to expose her illiteracy, do that by arguments - not by calling half corked or adding personal insults

Thanks for coming to her aid Mr. Krishnan but I remember some where that I wrote the following,
Sujata wrote
"This thread is about South Indians. A SL Tamil does not qualify as one. Can't we have a decent discussion on India or South India without SL inputs or browbeating?"
Krishnan wrote
"I still believe that what she meant is to stick to the topic, and SL tamils issue has nothing todo with the topic"
Now I did not see the same indignation there? why ? Not that I expect one but you are one sane party in this tamasha so step aside and enjoy the comedy :-)

Well to enjoy the comedy do I require to pay or Did I qualify to get a complimentary pass as I was a part of the tamasha?
Even if she was wrong at that thread, I don't see any reason for u to drag the issue to this thread and carry out individual attacks.
C'mon Sujata & Raveen, just forget that as one "bad incident" compromising ur egos for the sake of other forumhubbers and continue with constructive arguements. Forumhub cannot afford to lose both of ur views. I see no point in u people continuing in "War of words". Pointing each others as "U did it" or "U started it" helps nothing but creating bad vibes. And I believe there will not be an end to it too!!. Let's put an end to it atleast now. FOR OTHER'S SAKE PLEASE!!!. Hope both of u are mature enough to stop this arguement at this point atleast.

I would still like to know how the conclusion that I started the hate threads was arrived at.

Nobody has arrived at any conclusion... Just for the sprit of forumhub.. Pleaseeeeeeee.....

Krishnan,
I understand your sentiments and your reasons for droping this discussion and I will drop it, but here is one issue that needs to be resolved. I would also like to know if you think this is a non-issue.
If for any reason I am thought of as the nameless hate thread starter, then it is difficult to have any decent discussion with anyone without being suspect. I would also like to make it clear that I am not trying to earn any approval stamps from anyone.
When someone says >>You started ...... going to the extend of opening hate threads wishing me dead and wanting to nuke people.<< don't you think it means, that is a serious charge? I have also read statements here and there on the forum that a "she" had started the hate threads. It is not me and if anyone wants to accuse me of that, then I would like to know on what basis they decided it was me.

Sujata,
I am pretty confident that u would not have started such abusing threads. Also ignore the charges that are said at the heat of the moment. In general when u look back at whatever people say when they are emotional or at anger, it definitely will not make any sense. You, me or Raveen or for that matter everyone tend to lose our senses at somepoint of time when we are emotional. Hope all the forumhubbers are mature enough to differentiate good and bad. Just b'coz of this one incident no one is going to be suspicious about u or Raveen, going by the calibre of ur remaining posts. Just ignore it as a bad moment / accident in life and get along with ur contributions. Hope this matter ends here. Cheers!!!!

I think you are all extremely childish and unfocused. The tamil tigers are recognized by most western countries as a terrorist group more or as violent and dangerous as the IRA. If they continue eating away at SL. Their economy, and all parts of their relations will be affected. Including those with india. The massacres, and pointless blood baths have continued for long enought. If groups like this are allowed to reign what will the world be in a few decades? Remeber hitler, the mafia and all the revolutionists of the past.

Dear Suzy,
Are you saying that it is the LTTE, which is the genesis for all the massacres and pointless blood baths in Sri Lanka?
They my dear friend you have a lot reading and catching up to do. No one is suggesting that the govt. of India should support the LTTE (not me at least) but let me clue you in with respect to massacres in Sri Lanka by the Sinhala Buddhist majority against minorities specially Muslims first then Hindu Tamils. It started in 1915 when LTTE supreme V. Prabhakars father was not even born!
Following is a chronology of Riots against a non-violent Tamil minority (their then leaders were following Mahatma Gandhi)
http://www.tamilcanadian.com/eelam/hrights/chro/Killings/
then some
http://www.tamilcanadian.com/eelam/hrights/html/Riots.html
http://www.tamilcanadian.com/eelam/hrights/html/Rape.html
followed by the massacre of Tamil detainees in a prison
http://www.egroups.com/group/bandarawella_massacre
You cannot keep killing, raping and pillaging as a state policy and expect people to turn their other cheek forever. LTTE is violent reaction to the discrimination suffered by a tiny minority in peril. The only solution is a peaceful negotiations and devolution of powers to the Hindu Tamil minority and India instead of flaming the fires should help in solving the problem.

TAMIL TIGER IS A STORENGER

Any creation which needs violence as one of the ingredients, is unthinkable.From the mindless violence, only one thing is sure,The sri lankan Tamils need help and not the LTTE and others.
I am so much worried about the education and the psyche of the children over there.
What sort of society will they form when they grow up, IF THEY HAVE A CHANCE TO GROW UP!!!.

Very valid point Hemant,
Some Central ministers have given statements that India has nothing to do with Sri Lanka in this issue. If they express such attitudes just to please some political parties, it is understandable. But if the Central government really thinks that it has nothing to do with this problem, then it is wrong.
When the Sri Lankan crisis erupted, India helped the LTTE, adding to the burden of the Sri Lankan government. So India is also responsible for the problem that Sri Lanka is facing. The BJP should not narrow-mindedly think that these problems were created by the Congress government, but keep it in mind that the issue is concerned with India's future.
India based its past actions on the grounds that it was trying to help Sri Lankan Tamils achieve their rights under a federal setup. It is true that eventually the representatives of Sri Lankan Tamils and the Sri Lankan government asked India not to interfere. Now both regret it. Having once given hope to Sri Lankan Tamils, India should not turn its back on them now.
Also, to ensure our internal peace, this problem should be solved. India cannot keep itself aloof. After consulting military experts and other countries, it should take a firm decision and implement it without giving it much publicity.
If we try to keep ourselves away from this problem today, it will create unavoidable problems tomorrow.
At the same time Srilanka should not be fragmented; the problems of refugees in India should not be aggravated; no benefit should be derived by the terrorist organizations in India from this issue. The Sri Lankan Tamils should enjoy the rights that minorities have in India.

Krishnan,
I agree with most of your points in the above post except this one. Don't you think it is better to realise our mistakes late than never?

on: Tue Nov 28 16:01:41 EST 2000
Sujata,
What sort of mistake you see in helping Lankan Tamils regain their status in a 'democratic' way? I am not for India supporting LTTE's terrorism. There are lot of SL tamils who look forward to India to solve the crisis, since we've already interfered in this issue before. So don't you think that it's our moral responsibility to help them out?. Situation has gone out of hand that Srilankan government cannot handle it alone. Plus there are lot of advantages in it for us too if Srilanka is peaceful. At the same time as said before no benefit should be derived by the terrorist organizations in India from this issue.

>>What sort of mistake you see .....<<
Krishnan,
What I meant was that the initial support cost us many Indian lives, so it was time for us to reevaluate our role. Just because we went in foolishly at first, it does not mean that we have to bear the burden after nearly 20 years. We had a painful learning process. India's help (like that of any other country in the world) in this situation will have to come out of nobility or for the greater good and cannot be an "expected responsibility". Having said that, I do agree with you that we should all work toward peace.
