Sir:
ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚
You saidƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ about MIA, ‘The Queen of contradictions” that her turning pointƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ where her message spun out of control was when she tweeted on May 27 the cell phone number of New York-Times magazine writer Lynn Hirschberg.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ Wrong.
ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚
This woman of contradictions who admits “My approach to politics is that I never said I’m smart”, saw her turning pointƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ of her message spinning out of control wasƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ on January 28, 2009 when she was interviewed onƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ the Tavis Smiley Show with her outrageous incendiary comments about the Sri Lankan government. She had no qualms supporting the Tamil Tiger terrorists publiclyƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ throughƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ her dishonest lyrics which were not factual.
ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚
What was depressing about MIA was she was mouthing offƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ in her lyrics about her supposed to be suffering Tamil people in the North of Sri Lanka, while snacking on olive bread, eating truffle-flavoured French fries and sipping glasses of wine with millions of dollars stashed away in her bank account, and not helping the Government of Sri Lanka even with a single penny to improve the quality of life of theƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ Tamil people whom she pretends to care about.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ That is hypcrisy in my eyes.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ No wonder why she says, “I never said I am smart” in her approach to politics.
