Step by step and inch by inch reduce their habitat.
Once they have been cornered force them to lay down their arms.
I gave up the idea of setting fire.

SLA is gaining grounds. very soon LTTE will have the choice either to suicide or to put down their weapons and surrender. The photos shown in the tamilnet were taken earlier and the last photo is to carders preparing to run away from the battle field.

Mahadevan,
I use to call you Mhadevan because I had a friend by that name when I was in Govt. service.

Yes friend if an action goes on repeatedly then the cheer words too go repeatedly.
When your big boss and his father were engaged on pulling fishing net they used to say 'Odi helei heliya' 'Odi helei heliya' repeatedly while pulling the net.
These are very simple thing that you should know long time back.

Wick,
For me, you are really very interesting person.
It seems that you moved with many Tamils.
But, in some post, you simply blame entire Tamils.
You shout at Sinhalese too!!
You have used very nasty words to some LNP members!
If you worked with some Mahadevan, you must be much elder than me. So I can call you uncle????
By the way my father's name ends with Mahadeva who too worked for the Govt. and not Mahadevan!!
I saw you never used any nasty words to me. May be my name remind your old friend. |
