<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->But I repeat, the high profile brahmins, have not served their community to its benefit. Commenting on current events, I can only give an example of the recent editorials of Tughlak & Kalki. In the light of the Sri Lankan army's atrocities committed on Tamils, we get a pious lecture on the behaviour of the Tamil Tigers. That won't wash with the Tamil community.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->Strange, the Tamil Hindu community of Sri Lanka is now slowly starting to hate and fear the LTTE. And no, I'm not talking about any brahmins. The Sri Lankan Tamil Hindus settled here are complaining loud about the LTTE which is anti-Buddhist and anti-Hindu. The militant organisation burns down temples of both these religions whilst conspicuously leaving Churches standing.
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->Let us show that we are good Tamils too, and keep in sync with majority of the Tamil pulse. Is it so difficult to understand this?<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->You seem to know so little of what you supposedly are. For instance, you know very little about Carnatic music - other than mentioning it as a pastime of some Tamil brahmins. Can't help suspecting you're not what you are pretending to be here. Most Tamils have no problems with the brahmin community among them. The only complaints I've ever heard are from the anti-Hindu groups (of which I have never met anyone in real life) in the media. And you are curiously listing all their complaints (knowing that side really well), but know little of what you pretend to be.
