					<description>M.I.A. is the best.
The best music. She has a very bright future. 'nuf said. (Her record sales will show that.)

No surprises here that the Sinhalese can't hide their hatred towards a TAMIL Sri Lankan. 

Compare this to all the support and love Tamils show towards Sinhala people, like the Cricket team for example.</description>

					<description>@ Judge
Try to look past the slogans, eh? 
Does teaching Tamil in every school alongside Singhala sound like systematic oppression? Do  bilingual signage and government correspondence? Do free rehabilitation services for the victims of LTTE terror? What about clearing mines from liberated Tamil owned farmland? How is any of that oppression?

What about kidnapping of children and turning then into soldiers ( source: UNICEF), ethnic cleansing of Muslims in the North, unrelenting attacks in civillians who have never done anything to anyone, a campaign of assassinations of any Tamil leaders who date question the legitimacy of self appointed  LTTE? 
THAT sure sounds like systematic oppression to me.

Bottom line- The LTTE is illegitimate. It's "mandate" is achieved by deceit, murder, and ethnic cleansing. It does not represent all the Tamils in SL, regardless of how many opposition leaders they kill.</description>

					<description>Singhalase government should stop genocide of Tamils. LTTE did not started the war. It is the successive Singhalse government started to discriminate Tamils and made Tamils as a second class citizen. LTTE was formed to stand up against the systematic state oppression. 
Tamil Eelam is the solution to this ethnic problem were both community can live in respect, peace and harmony.</description>

					<description>I Completely agree with vilochani ... I too am a Sri Lankan Sinhalese ... But i never seen the difference Between a Sinhalese and a Tamil in Sri lanka... LTTE are completely  different from the Tamils... they want their a part of Sri Lanka they want a land, their Territory !! They wana separate state.. The LTTE dont wana live together as one ( in Peace and Harmony )with the rest of the people in SL !! LTTE is the minority in Sri Lanka.. and they wana make the whole world Alert  and want the whole World to focus on them.. wana b the Centre of attention..! Brain washed people...  they make children to make them  soldiers and Suicide bombers ..! since December 2007 the bombing in SL has risen so much... the  Sri lankan Recidents think 10 times before gettin out of their houses! is this the island which is know and PEarl of the Indian ocean... and  a PAradise..!!?? 
  M.I.A... she's Beautiful and Talented... and  she has stood up for her self.. we all appreciate that...! BUT its wrong to put SRI LANKA down  in this Article... Sinhalese and tamils dont want war .. we wana live in PEACE .. its the LTTE whos forcing  the Govt to take such steps...  
 
Innocent people Die daily cuz of this unreasonable Fight for LAND!
 
 Wish Maya All the best for her future.... 
 and Hope this War end ASAP ... and the LTTE gets some Brain!!</description>
