கறுப்பு ஜூலை கற்றுத்தரும் கடும் எச்சரிக்கை![Wed, 23 Jul 2025, 15:17 GMT] 1983 வெலிக்கடைச் சிறைப் படுகொலையும், 1995-96 செம்மணி மனிதப் புதைகுழி உள்ளிட்டு தமிழர் தாயகத்தில் பல இடங்களில் வெளிப்படும் மனிதப் புதைகுழிகளும், 2009 முள்ளிவாய்க்கால் வரையான போரில் இடம்பெற்ற பெருந்திரள் அட்டூழியங்களும் (mass atrocities) இன்ன பிற சர்வதேசச் சட்ட மீறல்களும் இன அழிப்பு (genocide) என்ற முதன்மையான சர்வதேசப் பெருங்குற்றத்துக்குரிய முகாந்திரம் (plausibility) கொண்டவை என்ற நோக்குநிலையில் (orientation) அணுகப்பட்டு சுயாதீன, சர்வதேச விசாரணைக்கு உட்படுத்தப்படவேண்டியவை. இந்த நோக்குநிலையில் ஈழத்தமிழர் தேசத்தினர் தமது அறிவையும் உணர்வையும் ஆற்றுப்படுத்தவேண்டும். இந்த நோக்குநிலையை வெளிப்படையாக மறுதலிப்போருக்கும் அதிலிருந்து நுட்பமாகச் சமூகத்தை வழுவச் செய்வோருக்கும் இடையே எத்தகைய வேறுபாடும் இல்லை.

2ND LEAD (Adds relevant links) அமெரிக்க வியூகத்துள் இந்திய-இலங்கை பாதுகாப்பு உடன்படிக்கை[Sun, 18 May 2025, 01:31 GMT] இந்திய-இலங்கை அரசுகள் 2025 ஏப்ரல் மாதம் தமக்கிடையே செய்துகொண்டுள்ள 'பாதுகாப்பு' புரிந்துணர்வு உடன்படிக்கையின் பிரதி ஆங்கில இணைய ஊடகம் ஒன்றில் சில சிங்களத் தரப்புகளால் அண்மையில் கசியவிடப்பட்டுள்ளது. உடன்படிக்கையின் உள்ளடக்கத்தை அதிகாரபூர்வமாக ஒத்துக்கொள்ளவோ மறுதலிக்கவோ இந்திய இலங்கை அரசுகளின் இரண்டு தரப்புகளும் தவிர்த்துவருகின்றன. இருப்பினும், கசிந்துள்ள பிரதியும் இன்றுவரை கசியவிடாது பேணப்பட்டுவருகின்ற 2017 ஆம் ஆண்டில் மேற்கொள்ளப்பட்ட அமெரிக்க அக்சா ஒப்பந்தமும் ஒட்டுமொத்தமாகத் தமிழர்களுக்குச் சொல்லும் செய்தியின் ஆபத்தின் ஆழம் எத்தகையது, அதன் புவிசார் அரசியற் தார்ப்பரியம் தான் என்ன, அது எவ்வாறு தமிழ்நாட்டிலும் ஆக்கிரமிக்கப்பட்டுள்ள ஈழத்தமிழர் தாயகத்திலும் புலம்பெயர் ஈழத்தமிழர் மத்தியிலும் அடுத்த கட்டச் செயலாற்றல் நோக்கிப் புரிந்துகொள்ளப்படவேண்டும் என்பது முள்ளிவாய்க்கால் இன அழிப்பு நினைவேந்தல் காலத்தில் சிந்தனைக்குரியது.

Ramasamy, told TamilNet on Monday.

What was more ironical that betrayed the deception was the slogan of the conference organizers that called the country they want to salvage as ‘Sri Lanka’, boldly written in Tamil.

Otherwise, it may only amount to conferring impunity to the State in Colombo and its abettors.
