  1. I’ve been listening to her a lot lately, but I’ve never seen any videos or pictures of her or anything and had never picked up on her apparent endorsement of the Tigers. That makes me really ambivalent about her, because her music is really great. This guy has certainly made a powerful and compelling argument.

  2. Her music is really awesome. When she first game out her support for the LTTE was a lot more apparent. She has toned it down a lot with the latest album. Lots of Tamil people support the LTTE. It’s not an uncommon position to take in the Tamil community.

Don't be shy, you can comment too!

 
Some things to keep in mind: You can style comments using Textile. In particular, *text* will get turned into text and _text_ will get turned into text. You can post a link using the command "linktext":link, so something like "google":http://www.google.com will get turned in to google. I may erase off-topic comments, or edit poorly formatted comments; I do this very rarely.
