īut those looking for new insights that could (1) deal positively with a win-win result for all communities, (2) or move away from their failed historical past, (3) or show a new way out to the vexed demands of the Tamils since independence, will be most disappointed because there is absolutely nothing new in it. Besides, it comes from the next crop of Tamil intellectuals who are likely to take over the Tamil leadership from the ageing Sampanthans, Sumanthirams and Wigneswarans.

It has been authored by the University students and lecturers of the Jaffna and Eastern Universities. This document contains all the characteristics needed to lay the foundations for the capture of Tamil Elam they could not win in Nandikadal. Quite pragmatically, neither of the candidates had deigned to reply. They have presented their 13-point demands to the two rival presidential candidates urging them to reply. So they have come up with a 13-point statement laying down conditions that could only lead to Nandikadal again. They see the polling booth as the only tool available for them to bargain with the two major parties. In a sense, the dithering is symptomatic of the plight of the Tamil who do not know which way to turn. Or they are pretending to be undecided though in their minds they know that they will eventually vote for Ranil’s nominee, Sajith Premadasa. Fonseka they could on the same logic vote for Gota. Fonseka, who was about to be retired, and backed him all the way to save the Tamils. Besides, it is the Rajapaksa duo that handpicked Gen.

Fonseka, the general that beat their hero -– irony of ironies! - it was tantamount to the Tamils performing their political ritual of offering their thanks and worshipping him in the polling kovils for eliminating an evil force that plagued them. Fonseka at the presidential election of 2010 were the biggest pooja ever offered by the Tamils to a Sinhala candidate. Having lost their most powerful bargaining chip at Nandikadal, the Tamil leadership, lured by Ranil Wickremesinghe, embraced Gen Sarath Fonseka, the much-decorated head of the Army who, along with the heads of Navy and the Air force, inflicted the most humiliating defeat on the Tamils.
