>> Call for Tamil Nation - Join mammoth Rally in DC -
>> July 23
>>
>> Dear Tamil Americans and Friends of Tamils,
>>
>>
>>
>> Having heard opinion from many of you we are
>> proceeding with the arrangements for a Peace Rally
>> in DC on Monday, July 23rd from 11:00 am to 3:00 pm
>> in front of Capitol Hill.
>>
>> The main purpose of the rally is to openly express
>> our aspirations for Tamils of Eelam. A secondary
>> objective is to call the Congress to Step in and
>> Stop the Genocide of Tamils. For too long we have
>> kept quiet. Our own Ambassador in Colombo, Hon.
>> Robert Blake has said that no Tamil that he has
>> spoken support a separate Tamil State. It is time
>> that we tell openly and forcefully and peacefully
>> what our aspirations are. Please get to work and
>> bring our people and our friends in large numbers to
>> the rally. We need at least 1000 people to show up.
>> Where possible arranging buses for the
>> transportation is encouraged. (Chartered flight from
>> the West coast is encouraged).
>>
>>
>>
>> Theme: A committee will decide on the exact theme of
>> our expression. For example a) we can call for a
>> separate Tamil Eelam State, b) call for
>> self-determination of Tamils, c) pledge allegiance
>> to the Thimpu Principles, or, d) (avoid the dreaded
>> separation word and) call for a Two-State solution
>> like Kosovo, Palestine etc. Suggestions are welcome
>> from all.
>>
>> Memorandum: A memorandum signed by all participants
>> expressing our aspirations will be sent to the
>> President, Congress and the UN.
>>
>> Other Highlights: We will invite VIPs (Congress,
>> Senate) to address the gathering.
>>
>> We will have live Nathaswaram and Thavil music.
>>
>> Do's and Don'ts: We do want all Tamils sharing our
>> aspirations, whether or not they support the
>> legitimate representatives of the Tamils who are
>> fighting for our rights in the homeland. It is NOT a
>> protest march or shouting match. It is a
>> celebration. We will stick to the theme. No
>> portraits. No flags other than US flag. Dress up
>> with the colors the homeland Tamils and the Diaspora
>> Tamils have come to identify with. All slogans in
>> ENGLISH ONLY. All banners and placards will be in
>> conformity with the theme.
>>
>> Other Plans: A full page ad in NY Times openly
>> expressing our aspirations with names, professions,
>> etc., may be put out to coincide with the rally.
>> Details will follow based on the feasibility.
>>
>> The youth group will prominently participate in
>> organizing and running the event.
>>
>>
>>
>> Spread the word. Bring young and old. Organize your
>> city, your state. This is a once in a lifetime
>> event. You will have fond memories of the event that
>> will last a life time. Together let us make history.
