Magha,
Now you have accepted that terrorist forces can be transformed and brought to democratic framework do not get into that rubbish again.
Why you are so obsessed with one person? Dont you have a world without Prabhakaran? We are talking about political forces and not one person. All other points you talk are minor and do not come to the big picture, those are only relevant for extremists and racists. Those should not be getting in the way of setting an issue important to the nation. So please do not repaet this moda katha again.
Somawansa Amaresinghe too was a wanted criminal for several murders, who illegally left the country, but that did not get in the way of brining JVP to the democratic framework.

Shakthi,
You stop writing rubbish. I have always said about the possibility of LTTE as a political organization joining democratic politcs without Prabhakaran. Every body knows that the biggest obstacle for peace is none other than Prabhakaran. How come that you are so blind to the fact that it is Prabahkaran's dictatorship that control's LTTE and Tamils.
If I am so obsessed with one person Prabhakaran ,who is a murderer and a terrorist localy and internationally wanted, dictating terms to Tamils and trying to carve a piece of SRi Lanka, why are you obsessed with MR then, who came much later to the scene of ethnic conflict in Sri Lanka. Either it should be your hypocrisy or the easy money from NGO's perhaps writing on this forum on behalf of you. |

What I aks is if somebody said that a person like Karuna a full terrorist would enter political mainstream giving up his arms about 4 years back (when he was still at LTTE) would you have believed that?
Shakthi,
Read your posts. You have changed the question several times and I answered them.
This was My answer I posted;
Yes, I believe the possibility of Terrorists giving up arms and joining main stream politics as it happened with the Tamil militants. Isn't Douglas Devananda a former militant?
What you still could not answer was why you evade giving case by case explanation for those who attached to military intelligence were killed after Athrugiriya safe house raid. Evading the question initially stating it was an unfortunate incident, now you come up with a rubbish like the following;
Yes, you gave a list with many names, but when one goes through the list one finds most of the names in the list have nothing to do with the so called Millennium city incident. Only NINE names are related to that incident.
So now let us know why others who had been killed has nothing to do with the incident. The fact here is that LTTE wanted the LRRP destroyed, they put it in the CFA, and RW collaborated with them with a treacherous act of raiding the house as well as not obliging the Army commander's request to release those arrested and not to publish their names.

Since this news item is about CFA it is a good thread to discuss about the contents of the CFA if any body wants to have a discussion.
First of all what made Prabhakaran to push for a CF was 9/11/2001 Twin Towers attack in NY and President Bush's stance taken against terrorism happening globally. LTTE was also exhausted from the war. Fortunately Prabhakaran found a counter partner who would use every political opportunism to gain power which was RW who is also dumb. There is no where in the world that an agreement would be signed without informing the head of the state the contents of the agreement , in our country it was the executive President CBK who was kept out of it. This shows that RW signed the CFA not for the sake of the country but for political opportunism.
Most of the items agreed upon in the CFA were for the benefit of the LTTE and what the GOSL can not implement . So in the first place GOSL should not have allowed those in the CFA as LTTE requested too much for a CF in order to have peace talks for a negotiated settlement.
When RW agreed stupidly for such requests which he cannot implement without risking our troops, and they were unnecessary to have in a temporary CFA ,it gave ample opportunity for LTTE to back off from peace Talks when they already had no intention for a negotiated settlement but only a settlement as they demanded.
CFA did not include what penalties would be imposed on the parties violating the CFA as there was no twin track system as in the 1998 Belfast agreement of the Irish issue. It gave the stupid SLMM to stay in Government controlled areas and check if LTTE is violating the CFA without any authority to enter LTTE areas to check. SLMM did record violation of CFA but without imposing any serious penalties, even the Norwegians disagreed with EEC when EEC put a travel ban for LTTE carders in Europe when the war is in Sri Lanka and called them Terrorists when we already know who they were. When LTTE was not given air transport by SLAF which was not in the CFA both LTTE and SLMM made it a big issue as unfair.
Here is an example from the Belfast agreement.
Feb 1998 The British and Irish Governments announced a 17 day exclusion of Sinn Fein from the talks because of IRA involvement in two killings in Belfast on 9 and 10 th Feb 1998. Sinn Fein organized street protest over their exclusion . On 23 March Sinn Fein was allowed to join the talks following the expiry of their exclusion.
Now this example also amplifies how important it was for Sinn Fein to be in Talks. This was what genuine negotiations means, not what LTTE does putting forward demands and expecting that the demands are met as they wanted, without negotiations. When dumb opportunists like RW make a mockery of a CF , Terrorists can continue Terrorism indefinitely unless subjugated by force or give in to terrorism.
