LTTE, a Problem or a Situation? What You Think?
LTTE = Sole Representatives/Leader of Sri Lankan Tamils.
A leader can be anyone with enough power to decide your present and the future. Only under democratic situation people have chance to choose a leader. But in all other situations, anyone with enough power (military power, religious power, etc..) can be our leader. Some times, we voluntarily accept our leaders (like we accept Pope as the leader of the Church) some times leaders force us accept them (Hitler in Poland or A Pimp with prostitutes or LTTE in Sri Lanka).
Every Leader need acceptance of people for him to stay in that position. In that case, people are responsible for their leader, Ultimately.
Problem:
Difficulty with a possibility to solve it.
Example: Headache is a problem can be solved by two pills. Hitler was a problem. Petrel price is a problem. A Girlfriend can be a problem.
Situation:
A particular set of circumstances existing in a particular place or at a particular time. We don't solve situations. We accept them and live with it. Some times situations can turn in to crisis.
Example: Tsunami was a situation. Cancer is a situation. Poverty is not a situation - it's a problem.
Now what is LTTE to us? Is that a Situation or is that a Problem?
If That's a problem, we should be able to solve it.
We should be able to bring them to democracy, disarm and rehabilitate.
If That's a situation then we should accept it and live with it.
For me it looks likes a situation rather than a problem. Disarm of LTTE is quite impossible because of political and resist issues. Even amputation of the problematic part of the country is quite impossible. So the only option left is live with the situation until circumstances change.

What you think? Is LTTE a Situation we suppose to live with or is that a Problem?

The actions of Velupillai Pirabaharan, the leader of Tamil Tigers prove he is real tiger. The only business he knows is killing. He killed Kalvian Kaadu Chetty, the person who named the group "Tigers" and the original leader of the Tiger group
Then Pirabaharan tried to kill the next leader of Tigers, Uma Maheswaran in a shoot out in India . He killed the founding members of the Tigers, Michael and Pat Kunam. Pirabaharan himself tipped off the Police about the then leaders of Tigers, Kuttimani and Thangathurai and their whereabouts. This incident led to Kuttimani and Thangathurai’s incarceration until their terrible deaths in the Welikade jail.
Pirabaharan killed all the persons he worked with before he became the leader of the Tigers. He even killed the last surviving Tiger group founding member Sabalingam who was residing in France , because Sabalingam started writing about Pirabaharan's power hungry killings
After Pirabaharan became the leader of the Tigers, he started killing all Tamil political leaders, elected mayors, university professors and many innocent Tamils who had criticized Tigers. Pirabaharan banned all Tamil political organizations for the last twenty years and finally the international community including USA, Canada, European Union, India and Australia has banned the Tigers, mainly due to Tigers' continuous use of child soldiers and their terror activities.
Pirabaharan also killed hundreds of people who were members and supporters of Tamil political organizations. Pirabaharan killed the Indian Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi. He even killed the Sri Lankan President Premadasa who had provided helicopter loads of weapons and money to Tigers.
Pirabaharan clearly knows that under any circumstances except at gunpoint, majority of Tamils won't accept his leadership. That's why he killed all other Tamil Political leaders, to become as the so-called "Sole Leader of Tamils".
Ramachandran a.k.a MGR, former Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu gave Pirabaharan more than 1.25 billion rupees in 1985. Tamils provided their support to Tigers at gunpoint only and never helped Tigers to grow to this extent. Without MGR massive financial support and Premadasa's supply of weapons and money, Tigers won't exist today.
Tigers are terror loving trigger-happy killers, created by MGR and Premadasa. Tigers' killings are severely affecting the future of Tamils since the killings created a huge political vacuum.
In 1990 Pirabaharan wanted 100,000 Muslims in the North of Sri Lanka to get out within 24 hours, leaving their belongings and treasured valuables - that was a text book example of ‘ethnic cleansing’. Prabhakaran made Idi Amin look like an angel as Idi Amin had a heart to give the Asians in Uganda three months to leave the country and not 24 hours.
Most of the young people who are younger than 35 years, do not know the history of Tigers. They believe that, Tigers became so powerful, because of continuous outpouring support from majority of the Tamils,
If Tamils like Tigers, why is Greater Colombo flooded with Tamils from Tiger controlled areas? If majority of Tamils like Tigers, Tiger controlled areas should be flooded with Tamils from other areas. Why are Tamils trying to escape Tiger controlled areas, rather than migrating to Tiger controlled area?
If Tigers lift the exit pass system and allow free movement in the Tiger controlled areas, except the people on Tigers' payroll, every body else will leave Tiger controlled area. The only supporters of Tigers are that they either do not know anything about Tigers or gain benefits from Tigers.
Why are none of the Tamil business people investing in Tiger controlled areas? Why are even farmers leaving Tiger controlled areas? Why are Tamils living abroad trying to help their relatives to leave Tiger controlled areas? In Tiger controlled areas nobody can express any political opinions or different ideas.
Only things allowed to say are those that support Tigers. No way can anyone criticize Tigers and live the next day in a Tiger controlled area. Tigers that do not care about human lives will never understand even the basics of human rights. Even the hardcore Tiger supporters are not willing to relocate to Tiger controlled areas.
Majority of the Tamil refugees, who claimed asylum in western countries, told the authorities that they were running away from Tigers. If majority of Tamils who live abroad support Tigers, why do they have to be threatened to collect money for Tigers as reported by the Human Rights Watch?
If majority of the Tamils who live abroad support Tigers, those Tamils would line up in front of the Tiger branch offices to drop off money. The major serious problem Tamils are facing right now is there are hundreds of very young terror loving trigger happy Tigers who know only one thing, which is killing another human. Last thirty years, Tigers killed more Tamils than any body else. Also more Tigers were killed by Pirabaharan than any body else.
Majority of Sri Lankan Tamils are patiently hoping, praying and waiting for a new young democratic political visionary as a leader. Until then, gunpoint Tiger culture and never ending killing spree by Tigers will grow and continue.
The tiger supporters are disputing that the body is not Prabhaharan's. The DNA eveidence should be done. Praphaharan was twice arrested in madras and jailed. His fingerprints would be in the records.
The bangalows and mansions where he lived in Puthukudiyiruppu, Michael Base, Alambil, Saalai, Saalamban in Mullivaaikaal would also have the fingerprints.
In Jaffna he lived in many places like his parents house in VVT, Paramsothy's house next to Don Bosco School in Temple street where his children went to school earlier, Pirambamkulam lane house, Shanthi Vilas of Sivananthan's house next to the Suthumalai Junior school where his kids went to school before the IPKF chased him out, all would still have his fingerprints still.
The army intelligence should look for them and prove that it was his body.
