Chandana malli,
how re ya today

At the moment I am alright...:-)

so wats up there

Nothing new....waiting for a star to fall:)

aaaahHHHHHHHHHH!!!
Waiting for a star to fall
And carry your heart into my arms
That's where you belong
In my arms baby, yeah

I've learned to feel what I cannot see
But with you I lose that vision
I don't know how to dream your dream
So I'm all caught up in superstition
I want to reach out and pull you to me
Who says I should let a wild one go free

Trying to catch your heart
Is like trying to catch a star
But I can't love you this much baby
And love you from this far

Waiting (however long...)
I don't like waiting (I'll wait for you...)
It's so hard waiting (don't be too long...)
Seems like waiting (makes me love you even more...)

TRO is a frontline collector of ransom from Tamils by force. Just like the USA freezing bank accounts of Terrorist organisations and even charities, it is best that this freeze is ON not only for 6 months but until the LTTE is eliminated NOT the tamils. Isn't it the TRO in Cumberland Maryland USA that was involved in the purchase of Arms from FBI decoys in USA ?

They can keep on appealing. All who support terrorists should be punished.

TRO should act now otherwise all these international aids funds offered to TRO will be used for feeding ugly bouddhist monks ( war culprits ) unwanted bouddhist temples in Tamil homelands.

MarkLevinson,
majority does not support LTTE. Listen to Anandasangaree my friend.
TULF Leader V. Anandasangaree told LTTE Leader Vellupillai Prabhakaran that he is losing his battle and that in his (Mr. A?s) assessment, the Eelam war is coming to an abrupt end, without any gains. The net result is that his (Prabhakaran?s) 23 years of fighting had taken his people back to the bullock cart age.

To your question Mr.Levinson.

Yes. If anybody support terrorism they should be punished. No matter how many they are.

Letter from Anandasangaree to Thambi:
Writing?s on the wall: Anandasangaree

It?s a make or break situation and negotiations the only way out

TULF Leader V. Anandasangaree told LTTE Leader Vellupillai Prabhakaran that he is losing his battle and that in his (Mr. A?s) assessment, the Eelam war is coming to an abrupt end, without any gains. The net result is that his (Prabhakaran?s) 23 years of fighting had taken his people back to the bullock cart age.

?The Tamils have sacrificed enough youth for your mission that has failed,? the TULF leader has told the LTTE leader, in a letter, where he had addressed him as ?My dear Thamby?.

Mr. Anandasangaree says in his letter:
?I am reliably informed that your cadres, in areas under your control, are going from house to house, abducting children, despite parental remonstrations, for your fighting cadre. I very strongly condemn this move, while pleading with you to stop any further recruitment and to release all those recruited, including those who had joined voluntarily, if any. At this rate, very soon, the Tamils will become an insignificant minority in Sri Lanka and gradually, lose their identity.

It is obvious, that you are losing your battle and in my assessment, your Eelam war is coming to an abrupt end, without any useful gains. The net result is that your 23 years of fighting, had taken people back to the bullock cart age. Without making things worse, please call off your struggle and leave it to the elders for a negotiated settlement. India had repeatedly declared that it will not allow separation in Sri Lanka and will go all out to prevent it. India takes this attitude, not out of love or hatred for any ethnic group in Sri Lanka but in its own interest, India does not want the cry for separation made 40-years back, to be revived.

Before the enthusiasm of the International Community dies and the offer of large sums of money for rebuilding and development, is withdrawn, please consider declaring a unilateral cease-fire. Even an Interim Administration, with reasonable representation for the Opposition, can be negotiated but certainly, unlike the Interim Self-Governing Authority proposed earlier by a team of experts, with no knowledge of the ground situation. At least, at this stage, if you accept my advice and agree to a cease-fire, to negotiate terms, thousands of lives and billions worth of property could be saved.

Apart from that, several billions of rupees spent on the war, can be saved and diverted for development of the areas devastated by the war.

If you trust me, you can confide in me what and how things should be done. With the Indians opposed to any type of division of the country, the only option you have is not to fight them but to compromise with them, for any solution based on the Indian Model. I have had discussions with various party leaders, religious heads and diplomats.

In my opinion, most Sri Lankans are agreeable to a solution, as suggested by me and if you will accept it, I am certain that even the little opposition that is there, will vanish. The majority of the people will agree to a solution based on the Indian Model, I guarantee you that, even if you fight for 100-years, a separate State is not possible, as long as India is opposed to it.

Hence, without sacrificing more lives unnecessarily, please stop fighting and agree to a solution. There are many, including me, who could be entrusted to make the preliminary arrangements for a negotiated settlement. Please rest assured, that I am honestly and sincerely interested in bringing peace to our people. I am not at all interested in power and personal gains. I hope you are well aware of it.

I have written a number of letters to you with well meant suggestions, for an early solution to our problems. You did not reply nor, respond to any of them, in any way. Whom do you think should be held responsible for this precarious situation?

Those who glorified you for all your actions, without condemning any, those who wrote and spoke high of you, without pointing out your mistakes then and there, those who were engaged in false propaganda, favouring you and against those opposed to you, those who went about killing people without a just cause, those expatriate Tamils who support you blindly for personal gains; those so-called intellectuals, who volunteer from abroad, to act as your spokesmen and above all, people such as Mr. S. P Thamilchelvan. Dr. Anton Balasingham and the TNA Member of Parliament are responsible.

Most of Thamilchelvan?s interviews to the media, were ridiculed by the International Community. His claim to be the sole representatives of the Tamils and that the claymore mine and hand grenade attacks were by infuriated civilians, are good examples. The whole world knows that the TNA members were fraudulently elected to Parliament. They too, like Mr. Thamilchelvan and other political leaders of yours, often threaten to go to war, without knowing their strength.

They do not realise that fighting a Government is like fighting the entire International Community. Please go through Dr. Balasingham?s speeches made at the Heroes? Day Commemoration meetings. They were unsuitable for the occasion, an insult to the dead and very demeaning too, severely condemned by your supporters.

I have heard some people claiming Mr. Amirthalingam as their leader and you as his successor. Are they genuine supporters of yours? You and your organisation lost credibility with the assassinations of former Indian Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi, Opposition Leader A. Amirthalingam, President R. Premadasa, presidential candidate Gamini Dissanayake, Foreign Minister Lakshman Kadirgamar and the attempted assassination of President Chandrika Bandaranaike Kumaratunga. With the first assassination, you should have realised your grave mistake and refrained from such killings.

A number of Tamil youths joined various Tamil militant groups, rightly or wrongly, as freedom fighters. To claim superiority over the other groups, you should have won over the cadre of the other groups, instead, your cadres hunted them down, without realising that they are also children of Tamil parents, committed to the same cause. This action, instead of strengthening you, only weakened you. Your cadres have yet to realise their mistake. They are still gunning down members of other groups, who had given up their politics long ago and are married and settled. Do you think our people will applaud a group of raw youths, with hardly any education or experience, to go around killing people at random, claiming to be freedom fighters belonging to your pistol group? The group that claims to be your pistol group, has not spared principals, teachers, lawyers, academics and others of esteem.

They have deprived the Jaffna University of an excellent Vice Chancellor Dr. Hoole. He has been banished from the country. They killed another intellectual of whom the country, in general and the Tamils in particular, should feel proud of, Mr. Ketheswaran Loganathan.

This category of people are great patriots, who sacrificed much for the country and its people and are not those hunting for jobs.

The Cease-fire Agreement (CFA) gave you a fine opportunity to move freely with the people in Government controlled areas, to win them over and to educate them politically. It also gave you a chance to soothe Muslims? feelings and resettle them in their respective homes. You did neither of these. Instead, your cadres used all their power to cause terror and tension to our people and to establish a dictatorship in the Government controlled areas, in addition to the areas already under your control. All the rights the Tamils enjoyed before 1983, when you started your struggle, are now lost. They are now living like slaves, both in government controlled areas and yours. This situation must change.

I am convinced that things are going out of control. The Tamils have sacrificed enough youth for your mission that has failed. Why are you sacrificing more and more youth? It is now time for you to admit failure of your mission and to negotiate a settlement or in the alternative, ask your cadres to surrender. A general amnesty can be worked out. I believe that a solution acceptable to Tamils, can be found. The International Community, including India, will see that an acceptable solution is found. The expatriate Tamils, who support you, are not genuine and are only interested in personal gains. Our people in the North and the East, have suffered enough and sacrificed to the maximum. They should now be allowed to live in peace and harmony. There are many elders anxious to return to their country of birth, live in peace and die in their land of birth.

Thanking you
Yours Sincerely
V. Anandasangaree
President -TULF
