Ireland and Tamil Eelam The nation of Eelam Tamils are conjoined with the Irish due to similar British supervised counter-insurgency and geo-politics of imperialism. By Athithan Jayapalan In a historic battle against the might of the British Empire during Easter week in 1916, hundreds of Irish nationalist revolutionaries who made up the vanguard of the Republican movements’ struggle for Irish sovereignty, took positions in and around Dublin, attacking and occupying government buildings and strategic locations. Although the rebellion in itself was quelled with the execution of 15 of its leaders and imprisonment of the rest, the determination, heroism and …

ஒரு 6 வயது சிறுவனிடமும் ஒரு 16 வயது சிறுவனிடமும் இறப்பைப்பற்றி கேட்டால், எப்படி பதிலளிப்பார்கள்? How to talk to kids about death ABC Everyday By Shona Hendley Posted 11 hours ago Last year was a difficult one in terms of death and grief for my family. We had three people close to us pass away against the backdrop of ever-rising COVID numbers and deaths broadcast by the media. While my husband and I were equipped to manage it, my children, who were only six and seven at the time, were not. Death was a relatively new concept to them and something they hadn't had to deal with firsthand. At the time I th…

France honours Lankan journalist PK Balachandran Colombo, February 13, 2006|19:51 IST The French government has conferred the Chevalier Order of Merit on the well-known Sri Lankan journalist Amal Jayasinghe for his outstanding contribution to journalism in the island. He has been with Agence France Presse (AFP) for the past two decades, and had earlier served Daily News, the most widely read English language newspaper in Sri Lanka. For years now, overseas newsmen have been making a beeline to Jayasinghe's office in Colombo to get insights into the intricacies of Sri Lanka's turbulent politics. http://www.hindustantimes.com/news/7…

இராணுவத் தலமையகத்தில் பாரிய குண்டு வெடிப்பு, அப்பத் தொடங்கியாச்சு போல? 'Big blast' at Sri Lanka army HQ There are reports of a huge explosion inside the headquarters of the Sri Lankan army in the capital Colombo. The head of the army, Sarath Fonseka, was inside the headquarters at the time of the blast, reports say. "There are casualties, but the fate of the commander is not known," an official told the AFP news agency. The official said it was a bomb attack. There has been an increase in violence in Sri Lanka recently and Tamil Tiger rebels have pulled out of peace talks. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/south_asi...sia/4941744.stm

Anandasangaree's hour A New York Times journalist e-mailed me the other day with a question, "does the Sri Lankan government have a plan for devolution?" It was a question to which I must confess, I had no answer, and therefore had to direct to my old friend, former Georgetown alumni, and spokesperson for the joint Tamil delegation at the crucial closing session of the 1985 Thimpu talks, Kethesh Loganathan, who is currently the deputy head of the Peace Secretariat. Frankly, I don't know whether he had an answer, or whether anyone does for that matter. This is the Achilles heel of the democratic Sri Lankan state; the weakest link in the Sri Lankan case. It has …

Why not call terrorists in Sri Lanka Hindu terrorists? : Musharraf By IANS Tuesday September 26, 01:19 PM Washington, Sep 26 (IANS) Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf says he is against use of the term Islamist terrorists or 'Islamo-fascists' as such labelling can then be used for other terrorist outfits as well, like the Tamil Tigers in Sri Lanka who are Hindus. 'Does one call terrorists in Sri Lanka Hindu terrorists? Why is Pakistan's bomb called an Islamist bomb? Why is India's bomb not called a Hindu bomb and that of Israel as a Jewish bomb?' Musharraf asked. 'Pakistani people are certainly for fighting terrorism, but they somehow are not h…

Kandasamy is accused of leading the American bra…

Debacle in Afghanistan - TARIQ ALI The fall of Kabul to the Taliban on 15 August 2021 is a major political and ideological defeat for the American Empire. The crowded helicopters carrying US Embassy staff to Kabul airport were startlingly reminiscent of the scenes in Saigon – now Ho Chi Minh City – in April 1975. The speed with which Taliban forces stormed the country was astonishing; their strategic acumen remarkable. A week-long offensive ended triumphantly in Kabul. The 300,000-strong Afghan army crumbled. Many refused to fight. In fact, thousands of them went over to the Taliban, who immediately demanded the unconditional surrender of the puppet government. Presid…

Anuk Arudpragasam Q&A | The Booker Prizes How does it feel to have A Passage North longlisted for the Booker? I’ve had many different, sometimes contradictory feelings, but I’m gratified to be in the company of the other wonderful writers on the longlist. Which authors have influenced or inspired your own writing? I’ve been most influenced by the modernist novel of consciousness, by Virginia Woolf, Marcel Proust, and Robert Musil in their attempts to depict time and interiority: in a sense this is what I want to do for my own time and place and people. But I also view each book I write as a kind of apprentice…
