i hope Pranab will explain this to sinhala polity

man soldiers are there to die..

December 09, 2008, 8.30 AM) Tamil Nadu Workers Party leader Ramdas says that the Indian Foreign Minister Pranab Mukhergy should be sent within 48 hours to warn Sri Lanka....

On Sunday December 7, the security forces were within 'kissing distance' of the outer defence lines Kilinochchi, announced the defence spokesman. On Monday, December 8, it became 'Troops in Kilinochchi are targeting the town and they are in the vicinity of the town.' However, by December 9 it seems the security forces' strategic focus had shifted from Kilinochchi to Mullaitivu according to the defence ministry

In military parlance, this kind of shift in 24 hours takes place only in tactical rather than strategic focus. Somebody is not getting the terminology right or the army is facing major problems in turning the 'kiss' into reality in Kilinochchi. Its two pronged offensive on Kilinochchi by Task Force-I from the west and by 57 Division from the southwest was reported facing very heavy LTTE resistance. Could this have compelled them a change in the security forces' strategy? The defence spokesman had acknowledged this at least on the Task Force-I front. In the Muhamalai sector also there appear to be no substantial progress in spite of 53 Division's claims of having captured 800 m long and 8 km wide line of defences there. All these bits put together would indicate stalling of offensive

Why the offensive to Kilinochchi ending up as a slow crawl?

Has the LTTE built up its strength beyond the ken of four divisions?

Is the army commander facing a major operational dilemma or political rider interfering with his operations for reasons not known to the public?

becose it is not you or you son . it is sinhala village boys who are sent to slaughter.

so you dont mind:))))
