Vaiko made this statement Yesterday.
‘My sole aim is to protect Lankan Tamils’
If you want to protect Lankan Tamils why are you contesting from India? Why don't you jump off into the sea, swim through, get across to Sri Lanka and serve them there. Why do you want to use Indian resources to save Sri Lankan tamils when India has enough problems for herself?
I always fail to understand the "Tamil Eelam" issue which is prevalent in Tamilnadu. All politicians are sympathetic towards SriLankan tamils who are dying. Why aren't they interested in the Indian tamils that are dying? Why are we being sympathetic? Just because they speak the same language as ours. Is that sound and rational?
I understand India has to be concerned because Sri Lanka is our sea neighbour. But we have to stop there. We should have our self interest first. Everything else comes next. Did Vaiko react so much to the 26/11 attacks? He is more concerned with Sri Lankans dying than with Indians dying.
Bottomline : Just have your self interest when you vote. Don't think about Lankan Tamils, Sri Lanka is not in India. Do we worry about dying Combodians? Just make sure you vote with the utmost selfish motive, which is India's self interest.

How should MK deal with Vaiko after his speech about Tamil Eelam Issue
What should be M Karunanidhi's Strategy after Vaiko's recent speech about Tamil Eelam Issue.
There are 3 options in front of MK.
1. Arrest Vaiko under NSA
2. Ignore him
3. File a complaint but don't arrest
If MK has to maximize his chances in Tamilnadu in the Lok Sabha Election 2009, what should he do?
1. If Vaiko is arrested, it can make Vaiko a war-hero. He'll become bigger than what he is now. He'll become a victim rather than a culprit in the eyes of Tamilnadu Voters. This can actually accelerate the turn in tide against MK and worsen his position in the LS Polls.
2. If Vaiko is ignored, he'll make couple more speeches on this issue and try to make use of this for political gains. But this can be interpreted as incapability on the state government to maintain law and order. Again not positive at all for MK, but definitely better than Option 1
3. File a complaint against Vaiko but don't arrest him. This will show that the state doesn't want these speeches but it doesn't want Vaiko to use the arrest to his advantage. Afterall, DMK doesn't want to convert Vaiko into another Varun Gandhi.
