	This is what happens when short sighted politicians signed a CFA which includes a border and a defacto state. Now, it is not easy to drop that monster. Stupid RW is still crying after losing election after election. Once rejected by Srilankan public he is trying to hang on to foreign coattails.

	In my opinion, govt made a slight mistake. They should have simultaneously abrogated the CFA and announced the proposal they are muttering about. Now there is a vacuum and uncertainty. Edited By - Dewey - 7 Jan 2008 16:55:17 GMT

Ototo,

Only a good hammering and a military victory by LTTE would force GoSL to a peaceful resolve the conflict...

Under the current circumstances, these goals are impossible to achieve.

But there are few slight chances/ways. Instability is the key word, ltte can try to eliminate the GOSL leadership or get GOSL to lose the majority in parliament.

But as I said above under the current circumstances these opportunities have very little chance, because Colombo is aware of the hazards.

Vini,

Now you tell me after Mahinda took the reins... whether the LTTE' got itS as5 on fire or not.

May I remind you that, it was VP who was the catalyst in electing MR to power? Why do you think so?
I have said before:
The CFA created harmony among the ethnicity, and the Tamils were beginning to doubt the separate state doctrine.
The LTTE was loosing control over the Tamils, and the Karuna split took place during the CFA time.
If RW had been elected, a solution along the lines of federalism would have materialised advancing the peace process. The LTTE would have found it impossible to revert to war.
So, electing MR was music to VP, his aim is a separate state, and the present conditions are favourable to him. Of course, he did not expect to loose TC etc, but it did not weaken his military strength.
The US Ambassador Blake said that, government?s victory in the east was tactical on the part of LTTE. This was evident given the ease at which GOSL took control of the area. It is also evident that, GOSL cannot even capture single area around Wanni because, LTTE has consolidated and fortified their defence lines well in advance. It looks as if, MR has fallen well and truly in VP?s trap!

Sri Lankans allowed too much... simply too much room for the LTTE to grow very dangerously... solely due to their (Sri Lankans') lethargic, and totally unacceptable laziness. I agree there.

You still do not get it! LTTE is successful, because of the inability of the Sinhala polity to resolve the national question. First, the issue of this magnitude, must be viewed as national importance, and petty party politics apart, the Southern polity must endeavour to reach consensus as to a viable solution within United Sri Lanka. This, the Sinhalese are unable to do, and this inability is the strength of LTTE!

It's now time to forget the past... and prepare to answer the one who's knocking on our door... Then pay the correct price, buy that Wilkinson and behead the LTTE monster.... without trying shake hands.

MR?s regime cannot withstand even a few months let alone years to pay the correct price. In the end, a heavy price will be paid by GOSL and the Sri Lankans in general, this is the reality. I say it you again, the LTTE is strong in conditions of war, and in turn, they are weaker in conditions of peace. Make up your own mind.

Friendly advice... stay away from Wanni, Ari.

I will stay away from Sri Lanka and Winni is no exception!

	UNP is in utter desperation. No way to grab the power. Always ready to do anything based on the opinion of so called international community. Ranil is just a puppet of all the forces in Kolpity. We should have a better opposition in our country rather than a party who simply ignore the voters and embrace everybody else including the LTTE.

	UNP is a CHEAP political party. They are using violence and blood y politics for their advantage. When Politicians need really to get together they ply politics for their advantage. This is the same politics that LTTE used and are using everyday when Thamil selva as well others are using. 'DON'T TOUCH LTTE THAT WILL LEAD TO DISASTER'.

Dewey,

In my opinion, govt made a slight mistake. They should have simultaneously abrogated the CFA and announced the proposal they are muttering about. Now there is a vacuum and uncertainty.

A slight mistake?

I would call it a big mistake.

As regards a devolution proposal, there will never be one. The Rajapakse govt has no serious intention of putting forward a devolution proposal that exclude the words 'unitary state'.

There is a chorus of protest from the international community about the abrogation of the CFA and the absence of a devolution proposal. Mahinda has shot himself in his foot and amputation is the only solution now. For 'amputation' read 'separation'

	The EU has called on Sri Lanka to go for a power sharing arrangement with the LTTE....Daily Mirror 07/01/08 Makes sense at last (instead of singing the crap terrorist song along with GOSL) and the rest of the world should support this call by EU.....then it will be Appi samata Jayen jayawewa Edited By - PULI0007 - 7 Jan 2008 17:24:49 GMT

	Piranha: Not really. All this IC BS will die down within a week. CFA or no CFA, things dont look good for LTTE. IC understands that old CFA was worthless.
