Talk:1985 anti-Tamil pogrom in Karaitivu

Leadup to event
There are two competing themes as to the buildup to this event. Prior experience discussing this topic on this website leads me to believe that this will be a point of contention, hence I am initiating this talk page discussion in a preemption, though hopefully we can come to a resolution quickly if need be.

The themes are:
 * 1) The Tamil militant groups treated the Muslims well and the Sri Lankan state launched a nefarious plan to drive a wedge between the Muslims and Tamils in the east by instigating the former against the latter, even going so far as to bring outside Muslims to the east.
 * 2) The Tamil militant groups were behaving aggressively towards Muslims and the Muslims finally retaliated against their mistreatment.

Not every one believes in these views to a tee necessarily, as M. A. Nuhman's contextualization is a middle ground between these two. But generally, those are how the buildup to the Karaitivu attack has been narrated.

The article previously alluded to theme 1, and my content has sprinkled in some theme 2. I believe there is sufficient WP:RS evidence for both themes and both should be included for WP:NPOV. SinhalaLion (talk) 18:55, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
