Similarity between GOSL & LTTE

LTTE informs these people in the bus was taken by GOSL army to help them build a bunker for Motta Rala & gang.

Just similar statement made by Prasad & Rambukeliya when they killed civilians @ Mannar Illupakadawai few days ago

Thre are some looters around that area who aquired some jungles in our Motherland.


Is that why criminals of the false state died in their thousands to capture these 'jungles' for 18 months before being driven off in 5 days, LOL

Kapalam,

Rathwatte was in charge at a time the LTTE were the strongest rebel group in the world. He didn't have things in the East under control, as Fonseka does now.

You guys just keep harking back to the past for comfort, don't you? But I understand, since the present really doesn't look good.

Tamilcanuck, Where were you when these happened?

03.05.86 Bomb blast at Bandaranaike International Airport (Tri-Star) - 16 dead

21.01.87 Bomb blast near Pettah Bus Stand - 111 Dead 753 injured.

31.01.96 Bomb blast at Central Bank, Fort - 86 Dead 1,338 Injured.

14.05.85 - Anuradhapura, LTTE kill 120 people and injured 85 others. This includes pilgrims who were inside the sacred Sri Maha Bodhi premises.

07.02.87 - Arantalawa, Amparai LTTE killed 28 Sinhalese villagers by slashing their necks.

25.01.98 - Kandy. LTTE killed 13 people and wounded 23 other when they attack temple of the tooth

03.8.90 - Kathankudy, LTTE opened fire at Muslims who were in praying in two Mosques, killing 103 and 70 wounded.

Previous Govts and some Sinhalese are also responsible for killings of Tamils. I don't deny that. And I totally condemn any such atrocities committed against Tamils. Are you going deny that the LTTE leadership has killed innocent people like some of the Tamil fools over here?

This direct target at civilians shows how desperate tigers are at their continuous defeat at the battlefield.
Tigers have done this type of coward attacks whenever they were push to the wall to intimidate the govt.Unfortunately past leaders got into this trap encouraging them for further such attacks in such situations.

At last we have got a leaderships(political and military)
who put the pin deeper.

If you take this forum as a cross section of SL thinking, it shows how gullible the SL population are and how GOSL is playing them.

Looking at the current environment in SL this might not have any thing to do with politics or Sinhala-Tamil issue. It could be a grenade carried by a SLA officer on leave, drug dealer or gang member trying to transport explosives.

Non of know what really happened and we will never know if a proper investigation is not done, which brings to the real issue: it the problem is not identified then a solution will not be found.

Blaming everything on the LTTE without any proof gives GOSL the easy way out and increases the risk to society.

Lies Lies Brilliant Lies. :-)

Reports that appeared in the Tiger media supported by the Mannar Holy Father stated that civilians were killed and many injured were rushed to the Kilinochchi Hospital. Our inquiries led to a different picture altogether.

Why were the injured taken far away to Kilinochchi, a hospital that did not even have a nitro lingual spray for Daya Master and he had to be rushed to Colombo. Very close to the area that was bombed there is a well equipped Civil Hospital in Mannar and also in Vavuniya.

The truth is that the injured and killed were Tiger cadres and many of them children. Our investigations were well conducted and we are also very familiar with the terrain and also that many families who used to live in the Iluppaikadavai area have moved out through sheer fear of the Tigers. Even many of the fishing boats of the local people were commandeered by the Tigers some years ago.

It appears that the TNA members are least concerned and did not think it fit to check for themselves as to what really happened there. They seem more interested in playing some kind of a political chess in Tamilnadu; some have expressed their desire to flee the country at the earliest possible opportunity.

We regret to disagree with the statement made by the Mannar Holy Father because they are not only disagreeable but downright falsehood.
