It is the LTTE who are responsible of more than 80.000 innpcent lives ( whether its Tamils, Sinhalese, Muslims or any other )
LTTE has killed more Tamils than any other nationality.
What did Muslims do to LTTE to butchered & killed 148 innocent Muslims who were praying in a mosque in the east of Sri Lanka ?
What happened to the Muslims & Sinhalese who were living in north of Sri lanka ?
Sinhalese, Tamils, Muslims & others are still living as friends in Srilanka ( Except in North )
Lets support to wipe out the LTTE terrorism.

-Sudalaimaadan’s comments says JR was the culprit. The Indian forces were getting ready to invade Sri Lanka with the help of the TELO. Their plan was leaked to the LTTE by DIG Unnikrishnan who was the Southern Command Rep for both the RAW and the Freedom fighters based in South India. Unnikrishnan turned to be a double agent due to his weaknesses. He was relaying information to the SL government too. So JR who was pushed to the brink to invite the Indian forces as a peacekeeping force rather than an invading force. There were lot of opposition from the cabinet including M.Rajapakse who marched on Galle Road. JR is a cunning politician. He was smart here.Without any preplanned moves all worked in his favour,which made the LTTE fight the IPKF. Very carefully look here, If JR had not done it and the plan of invasion by the Indian Army was carried out , the Sikh and the maratti regiment would have been installed in the north and east and the madras regiment in the south. The plan was to take over Galle port,Colombo,Kandy,Trinco,Batti and Jaffna by bombing and then reinforcements. Wiping the LTTE and give the power to the TELO and all others under the control of their command. To satisfy the South Indian Tamils the Madras regiment would have been given an open licence to rape and destroy the south and have a puppet administration in the north. JR had the class like Bandaranaike. But tough cunning politician.He made a remark to Rajeev , not to tell him what to do and to go home and look at the photo in which he is sitting behind Nehru. Now you decide whether JR’s move was to safe one Sri Lanka or not ?? He was worried of human rights too.I agree that it is better to live with the Sinhalese.
-Who attacked Kittu at 2nd Cross Street ?
-After this incident, I think Ratha killed how many who were in custody blaming the EPRLF ?
-Was the culprit punished ?
-Was Thileepan forced to fast ?
-Why didn’t Dixit stop it respecting Mahatma’s values ?
-Why did Dixit allow the SL army to transfer the LTTE leaders to Colombo ?
-Why didn’t he prevent them from taking the cyanide capsules ?
-Was at any stage Romesh Bhandari planning to bring Gamini Dissanayake as the president of Sri Lanka and to be the puppet of India ?
-all these were happened during the inexperience Rajeev’s period.
-Did Rajeev wanted VP to be dead ?
Only DBS can answer to all these questions ???
India trained LTTE,PLOTE,TELO,EPRLF and the EROS in Uttar Pradesh. LTTE and the PLOTE walked out after they came to know the RAW plan.PLOTE got the training in Lebanon with the PLA of Dr George Habas.The LTTE was later built up by MGR.All groups are the same in killings,but the LTTE maintained the discipline eccept elimination of some good leaders.
The Punjabi’s are the best protecting the border with India. The Hindi speaking Indians have forgiven them.
Why not the LTTE ?? They will be best to protect us from any Indian invasion. Give them the north and east and settle. Let the Tamils decide the fate of the LTTE in a united Lanka.
Who killed Rajiv will be always a question mark ??
Only the LTTE intelligence wing will know other than the real culprit.
-How did Rajeev treat MGR ?
-Was MGR bullied by Rajeev to make VP accept the proposals ?
To me he asked for it and got it.
God safe Lanka which belongs to the Tamils and the Sinhalese.

Who knows what would have happened if not for the Thileepan incident and if the IPKF had prevented the SL army from entering the Pallaly base where the LTTE persons were being held?

Who was giving the orders to ignore Thileepan and for the IPKF to not stop the SL forces at Pallaly?

Who was JR conspiring with to weaken the LTTE?

Who was playing double games for their political ambitions?

Thank you Dr.K.C. This is the point. When India had undertaken to settle the Tamil problem, that should have been allowed until the full completion of the implementation of the 13th Amendment for which the LTTE and Premadasa did not allow room for it. Had that been allowed, today the Sinhalese too would have tasted the fruits of federalism with the passage of time. (The fact remains that more than 35% of the Sinhalese voted for Mrs.Dissanayake who wanted the federal solution during the Presidential election against the powerful Chandrika). There is no doubt about it. The truth cannot be hidden for ever. Priyanka would definitely come to know the culprits who had master minded this cowardly act.

During the presence of the IPKF it is true that a number of good fathers and good daughters died. Likewise a number of good fathers and a good number of daughters died in the Bharatha war. Ramayana war, Kalinga war, the First World War, Second World War, etc. It is because of power struggle between two factions. That is why history always insists allow the pen to rule rather than the gun. There may be set backs but cannot go on forever.

Rajiv may be a good father, but not a good leader. Priyanka is a good daughter and may be a good person trying to come in terms with her loss of a loving father.
But let us not forget that there were thousands of good fathers were killed during the period of IPKF and lots of good daughter suffered and are looking for answers.
Their grievance is much much higher because they are also poor.

Whilst India was spending billions for the induction of IPKF for the peace keeping mission, over 500 schools in India did not have running water for their children.

How ungrateful the SL Tamils are……

Dear Sudalaimadan,
I agree with your comments. Everyone knows JRJ was cunning, but what happened to the wisdom of the LTTE. The adamant attitude of the LTTE deviated the course of path of the IPKF. When the IPKF came to Sri Lanka (spending several crores of Rupees) everyone in North East Province greeted them by offering young coconuts, fruits, etc. The first two months since the arrival of the IPKF was peaceful. The IPKF consisted of Tamil Nadu and Kerala soldiers and there was cordial relationship and later by the Sikhs. The Kerala Officers, with whom I had the privilege of having contacts, at the Indian High Commission wanted the Tamils to be united. They were not our enemies. Unfortunately there was lack of co-operation from the LTTE. The IPKF came as a disciplined Peach Keeping Force and not as a Fighting Force. The deviation of maintaining peace came to a halt when they were provoked unjustifiably and eventually compelled the IPKH to a Fighting Force, when the battle became a war between the seen and unseen on account of the Guerilla tactics adopted by the LTTE. It was an accepted fact that when the LTTE saw the educated people mending good relationship between the IPKF and the Tamils with language communications, the LTTE adopted a calculated and systematic decimation of those educated people during the EPRLF regime. The LTTE should bear all responsibilities for such consequences. India could have implemented the 13th Amendment in keeping with the Indo-Sri Lanka Peace Accord in its true perspective. It would be a stepping stone towards Federalism. When India came in as a Mediator it had a whipping hand on the defaulting party, but we missed the fine opportunity when the Tamil Organizations were not united. We should be grateful to G.Parthasarathy for the pain he had taken to see that soon after the Indo-Sri Lanka Peace Accord was signed, the Tamil youths who were detained at the Boosa, Welikada and Magazine were all released unconditionally. But I must tell at this hour that some of the innocent youths belonging to the TELO were murdered even in Colombo mysteriously by underworld criminals who were acting on behalf of other organizations (not only LTTE) for various reasons. Space is not enough to such volumes of atrocities on innocent freed youths who wanted to pursue a new life in foreign countries. First we will have to put our house in order. Even after the Naval Rating assaulted Rajiv Gandhi, the love and affection Rajiv Gandhi had towards the Tamils had not diminished. He wanted the Tamils to live with honour and dignity. He wanted to create a constructive society as opposed to destructive society. It is pure ignorance to blame the Indians or the Sinhalese. It is the politicians and the LTTE who wanted to create a division for their survival. The LTTE wanted work for the guns and bombs and not for the pen. Ultimately Rajiv Gandhi fell victim for the cowardly act of the LTTE. When such things had happened, there is nothing wrong for Priyanka to find out the truth.

Well Well my dears…
To all those Jaffna fellows including Kurudan who have written a comment…Everyone is blaming the I.P.K.F.Rajiv Gandhi Dixit.But has forgotten to mention the real culprit!
That is J.R. the former Srilankan president.He Was a Saanakkiyan.He wanted to setupon the Indians against the NorthEast Thamils.And he succeeded handsomely.
As mentioned by somebody “we trust the Sinhalese,more than the Indians” true enough.
Then why the hell you all want to flirt with the Indians?

India and Srilankan are two seperate and soverigh countries.There is a considerable number of Jaffna Thamils who speak ill of Indian Thamils.
Afterall why worry?Almost all of the well to do Jaffna Thamils have either migrated to greener pastures or to Colombo.Only the Economically weak and those from the not so good caste are compelled to stay back and face the brunt.

Besides the traditions and customs of the Jaffna Thamils highly differ with that of the Indian Thamils.
The Jaffna tradition is very much akin to Keralites who are considered arch enemies to the Indian Thamils!
I think the best think is to patchup with the Sinhalese and live in peace.

India can do nothing in this regard,other than agravating the problem further.

Priyanka has proved that she is a great person. But will VP or Pottu Amman have the courage to prove that they are great to forgive their rivals. Terrorists do not have the word forgiveness in their dictionary.
