LTTE keeps on blundering, which shows Prabhakaran and LTTE are surely reaching their destiny of doom,
You said it. Can't agree with you more |

Abdulsalaam,
Have I ever said I am for a unitary state? Prove it.
You want LTTE to go for negotiation with the GoSL whose policy has not moved from the unitary structure which MR made clear. Does it not follow that you are also in support of it? Moreover, nowhere you at least hinted that the GoSL must move away from U.State policy.
The killing of 2 LTTE supporters at Nirvely was the first which was done by army assisted EPDP on Dec 2nd and LTTE trained Makkal Padai retaliated by killing soldiers in a tractor by exploding claymore mines. One cannot go wrong on chronology of events. Edited By - Sintamus - 6 Jul 2006 19:07:38 GMT |

Maninder,
LTTE always react predictably. That shows their political immaturity. Tamils have no alternative to supporting LTTE as all the others, (GoSLs,later Tamil political parties and even later other militant groups)whom Tamils supported at different times have cheated or failed to resolve the problem.
After trying all the possible corporations, negotiations and signing agreements with successive Govts SJV-C said that we (Tamils) must get out of the clutches of Sinhalese or perish. LTTE may be the vehicle to get to our goal which may be one of those spelled by immortal SJV-C, because even the most optimist come to conclude that no Sinhalese Govt will ever agree to a just solution. |

The whole world is asking the LTTE to return to negotiations. Does that mean the entire world is for unitary state? Great logic. |

Yes, but, by the same token they also want the GoSL to make radical changes to devolve and decentralise power to the minorities or solution within a united country. IC does not want or iimply that LTTE goes to talk on unitary constitution. You want LTTE to go for talks but no mention of how the intransigent SLG radicalise its stand. That's the difference.
We all want negotiations, but, GoSL has not delivered things that are agreed in the previous agreements nor has it made it clear that talks can be outside unitary govt. |

Abdulsallam,
I do not agree with LTTE on many issues. But GOSL is no saint.

Unfortunately there is a different between what GOSL says and the whole world says, as Tamils have to negotiate with GOSL and not with the whole world.
Until both parties give up their stated positions, no solution is possible.

After the Oslo fiasco, GOSL can say there is no point in going to Geneva or Oslo as there is no certainty that LTTE will turn up for the talks!
C'mon, give up this mantra that GOSL has not delivered on past agreements. It has become very stale.
In the first place, is it so difficult for the LTTE to announce that it is ready to resume talks and then set about preparing the agenda? NO. All LTTE is doing now is to lay down conditions after conditions and come up with lame excuses to break off talks or just refuse to talk at all. LTTE simply wants to dictate terms and no self-respecting government can allow itself to be dictated to by a Terrorist outfit.
On the question of disarming, what happened to the EPDP cadres who were disarmed? They have been murdered by the LTTE. Should GOSL disarm EPDP and Karuna to make it easy for the LTTE to kill them? Now, even if the LTTE undertakes not to kill them, it cannot be taken seriously because after carrying out the killings, LTTE will deny any responsibility as they have been doing since the CFA was signed. |

Agreed. That is the whole purpose of negotiations - to compromise and accommodate to arrive at a solution.
LTTE has a lot more to give up with the demand for the East to be separated from the North. Can the people of the East be forced to become part of the North? |

Abdulsalaam,
At best, I guess LTTE would only give up the call for a seperate state for some sort of Federal structure. If anyone is thinking about de-linking the North-East, we can kiss good-bye to any possible solution.
I am not saying that it is the right thing but it is the stark reality.

Kula,
It is not quite clear what you meant by 'not the right thing', de-linking the North-East or kiss goodbye to any possible solution? |
