Tamil History Removal in Facebook

Facebook Friends, Even though Facebook (FB) lifted its restrictions on my Facebook account, I'm not planning to use FB as social media in 2021 until Facebook allows sharing Tamil history especially Tamil Eelam history, Tamil heritage, and Sri Lanka's genocide against Tamils. I'm not planning to use any of its features other than the blog as a form of protest. I'm planning to use it as a very simple blog and replicate posts in Google blogger and going to write Tamil Eelam history posts throughout the year. Some of them Facebook may block but have to fight for this because FB now becomes 2 billion people in its virtual world with its own rules and a new form of world government. More about it in https://velposts.blogspot.com/2021/01/2021-resolution-in-facebook-usage.html




FB removed many of Hon. Prabhakaran photos during Maaveerar Week 2020 when Tamils honor their fallen heroes (Tamil Eelam defense / Tamil Tigers) who fought against Sri Lanka's genocide. Tamil great leader Prabhakaran is no different than Singapore's founding father Lee Kuan Yew, South African leader Nelson Mandela or USA's founding father George Washington. Tamil leader Prabhakaran and his Tamil Tigers fought against Sri Lanka's genocide against Tamils and built a great country Tamil Eelam which was democratically mandated by Tamils who were sovereign people and a nation. Facebook arbitrary laws on Tamils are simply wrong. Tamil Tigers were ceased to exist on May 18, 2009. They were fallen as a government of Tamil Eelam and many were prisoners of war (POW) and later tortured and executed by Sri Lanka and that was war crimes UN initially hid but later admitted. Fallen Tamil hero's cemeteries were destroyed and the UN still kept mum about it. As war criminals and genocide in Sri Lanka continue to remove Tamil heritage and monuments, Facebook also took a wrong stand to remove those histories as well. Even though genocidal Sri Lanka and Facebook can not be compared, when it comes to erasing history, both act similarly. If we failed to raise our voice now, it may be too late. In genocide, removing the memory and evidence is the last phase. It is important for Tamils to raise their voice to the UN to refer Sri Lanka to the International Criminal Court or form an ad-hoc tribunal. UN failed in its own resolutions not only once three times in implementing hybrid court. These failures are the reasons we see the monument's removals in Jaffna and also Facebook restrictions on Tamil Eelam's history. Both are history removal systematic efforts. Even though Tamils created their own solutions to preserve history, that's not enough. Below is one of my appeals to the Facebook oversight board.

The future of Tamil Eelam history based movies

Image
In the future, many will likely be introduced to Tamil Eelam's history through cinematic productions. History-based movies primarily enable the audience to learn more on their own. Presently, over a million people apart of the Tamil diaspora know the history of Tamil Eelam. Therefore, they can easily identify an anti-Tamil film, such as Family Man 2. However, the next generation of Tamil diaspora won't be able to recognize if any anti-Tamil production of Tamil Eelam history is being spread around as propaganda by anti-Tamil governments. Even though history books, video magazines, such as Oliveechchu , and archives still exist, visual content catches a wider audience. Otherwise, history can be twisted by powerful forces. Tamils have lost vast amounts of literature through the destruction of manuscripts driven by Hindu religious beliefs. In fact, Eelam Tamils democratically mandated Tamil Eelam as a separate country and the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) fought for the ...

The Introduction of the United States H.Res.413 Resolution and the Tamil Diaspora

Image
The Introduction of the United States H.Res.413 Resolution and the Tamil Diaspora The United States of America and Tamil diaspora relationship may be entering into a new phase with the introduction of the H.Res.413 resolution. H.Res 413 is calling for an international mechanism for crimes committed in Sri Lanka and also acknowledges the traditional Tamil homeland. This time, the Tamil diaspora should pay more attention to ensure Tamils will be treated as a partner, not just as a tool. As everyone knows, a world relationship works when both sides offer something and receive benefits in return. From the Tamil's side, the demands are always consistent, that as recognition for the Tamil homeland or Tamil Eelam and justice for Sri Lanka's genocide against Tamils. Even before 1976 or after 2009, (before or after the LTTE - Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam), this demand doesn't change. The current H.Res.413 that acknowledge this truth is an important step towards the right directi...

உலக திரைத்துறையின் மையமாக அமெரிக்காவின் Hollywood உள்ளது. எழுபது வருடங்களை கடந்தும் இன்றும் கூட யூதஇன அழிவை சொல்லும் திரைப்படங்கள் வந்தவண்ணம் தான் உள்ளன. இரண்டாம் உலக போரின் திரைப்படங்கள் குறிப்பாக நேச நாடுகளின் தரையிறக்கம் தழுவிய படங்கள் இன்றும் வருகின்றன. பல நாடுகள் சேர்ந்து செய்த D-Day எனப்படும் Normandy தரையிறக்கம் என்பதிலும் வியப்பானது தான் தமிழீழ அரச படைகள் சிறிலங்காவின் ஆக்கிரப்பின் மீது செய்த குடாரப்பு தரையிறக்கம். தமிழருக்கு  தியாகத்தில் காந்தியிலும் மேலானவர் தான் திலீபன். கலை, போரியல், நிர்வாகம் அரசியல் என்று எல்லாவற்றிலும் சிறந்து விளங்கிய புலிகள் ஆயிரம் எதிர்ப்பு இருந்தாலும் அவர்கள் அமைத்த மக்கள் ஆணை பெற்ற தமிழீழம் இந்தியாவுக்கும் அரணாக தான் இருந்தது. அதன் வரலாறு உலகில் எந்த வரலாற்றுக்கும் சற்றும் சளைத்தது இல்லை. சிறிலங்காவின்  தமிழின அழிப்பில் இந்தியாவிற்கும் பெரும் பங்குண்டு. தமிழீழம் 2009 இல் வீழ்ந்து போயிற்று அதற்கு இந்தியாவின் தமிழின எதிர்ப்பு கொள்கையும் காரணம். இந்தியா தமிழீழ வரலாற்றையும் சேர்த்து அழிக்க தான் இன்றும் முனைப்பாய் உ...
