தீவின் நெருக்கடிச் சூழலில் ஈழத்தமிழர் தேசம் கடைப்பிடிக்கவேண்டிய நிலைப்பாடுகள்

[Sun, 24 Apr 2022, 05:44 GMT]

இலங்கைத் தீவில் ஏற்பட்டிருக்கும் பொருளாதார நெருக்கடியின் போது ஈழத்தமிழர் தேசம் வரித்துக்கொள்ள வேண்டிய பன்னிரு வழிகாட்டல் நிலைப்பாடுகளை ஈழத்தமிழ்த் தேசிய மூலோபாய மதியுரையகம் ஆய்வுக்குள்ளாக்கியுள்ளது. அவற்றைத் தமிழ்நெற் ஆசிரியபீடம் இயன்றளவு சீராக்கி சுருக்கமாகவும், விரிவாகவும் வெளியிடுகின்றது. பதின்மூன்றாம் சட்டத்திருத்தத்தை ஒரு தீர்வாகக் கொள்ள முடியாது என்று சொல்லிவிட்டு, அதையே ஆரம்பப்புள்ளியாகக் கோரி, அடிப்படையிலேயே அனைத்தும் தவறான 1987 இந்திய-இலங்கை ஒப்பந்தம், 2002 ஒஸ்லோத் தீர்மானம், மற்றும் 2013 சிங்கப்பூர்க் கோட்பாடுகளுக்கு ஈழத்தமிழர்கள் மீண்டும் மீண்டும் பலிக்கடா ஆக்கப்படுவதை, அறிவியல் ரீதியாக மறுத்து எழவேண்டிய வரலாற்றுக் கடமை ஈழத்தமிழ்த் தேசத்தின் முன்னே உள்ளது. இந்த வழிகாட்டி நிலைப்பாடுகள் கற்பனையில் உதித்தவையோ, அன்றேல் நடைமுறைச் சாத்தியமற்ற ஏட்டுச் சுரைக்காய் நிலைப்பாடுகளோ அல்ல. மாறாக, ஈழத் தமிழ்த் தேசத்திற்கான மூலோபாயக் கொள்கை மீண்டும் மக்கள் மயப்படுத்தப்படுவதற்கான ஓர் ஆரம்பம்.

குறிதவறும் ஈழத்தமிழர் தலைமைகளுக்கு வரலாறு தருகின்ற எச்சரிக்கை

[Sat, 09 Apr 2022, 14:44 GMT]

பெரும் பொருளாதார நெருக்கடியை இலங்கை எதிர்கொள்ளும் இத்தருணத்தில், திடுமென வரலாற்று ஓட்டத்திற்கு மாறான நடத்துமுறை ஒன்றைத் தழுவி, ஈழத்தமிழர் தேசத்தின் கூட்டு உரிமைகளை உறுதிப்படுத்த, அதன் ஆளும் தரப்போ, எதிர்த் தரப்போ இலகுவில் உடன்பட்டுவிடும் என்று எதிர்பார்ப்பது அடிப்படைத் தவறாகும். இலங்கைத் தீவைப் பொறுத்தவரை தமிழர்களுக்கு வரலாற்றுப் பட்டறிவே உற்ற நண்பன்; எதிரியை மட்டுமல்ல விரோதிகளையும் துல்லியமாகக் கணிப்பிடும் நுண்ணறிவே அவர்களின் அருமைத் தோழி. அரசியலமைப்பை இலங்கை அரசு கையாண்டுவந்துள்ள அதன் நடத்துமுறையைப் (modus operandi) புரிந்த நிலையில், நுண்ணறிவோடும் பேரறிவோடும், ஆக்கிரமிக்கப்பட்ட தமிழீழம், தமிழ்நாடு, புலம்பெயர் சூழல் என்று ஒத்திசைவாக ஒன்றிக்கவல்லதாக வகுக்கப்படும் தமிழரின் அணுகுமுறையே, ஈழத்தமிழர் தேசத்தை அவர்தம் விடுதலை இலக்கு நோக்கி நகர்த்த வல்லது.

Tamil leadership need not shy away or react to unfair challenge coming from Sumanthiran: Eezham Tamil polity seeking pardon from Tamil-speaking Muslims should be unassuming, but it should come in an enlightening way to the edification of the Colombo-centric agenda or the powers-guided agenda, pursued in the past as well as in the present. Otherwise, it may only amount to conferring impunity to the State in Colombo and its abettors.
