| What is SLAF doing... scaring cows and destroying banana trees of poor farmers? This is pure frustration of GOSL in its inability to get close to VP or any higher-ups in LTTE. |

Good analysis of the conflict by Wikipidia
The TULF supported the armed actions of young militants who were dubbed 'our boys.' These 'boys' were the product of the post-war population explosion. Many partially educated, unemployed Sinhala and Tamil youth fell for simplistic racist and violent revolutionary solutions to their problems.

SLDF making it harder for LTTE every day. Total blockade is necessary to finish the job.
Mannar rice bowl is liberated by SLDF and LTTE running to Mulathive to regroup. They fortified open areas to prevent SLDF marching towards north, but SLDF strategies had worked very well. Now LTTE has to hide in Mullathive jungles and get scorched by the SLDF fire power not being able to retaliate from jungles.

Initially the LTTE gained prominence due to devastating attacks such as the massacre of civilians at the Kent and Dollar Farms in 1984 and the Anuradhapura massacre of 146 civilians in 1985. The Anuradhapura massacre was apparently retaliated for by government forces with the Kumudini boat massacre in which over 23 Tamil civilians died. Over time the LTTE merged with or largely exterminated almost all the other militant Tamil groups. As a result, many Tamil splinter groups ended up working with the Sri Lankan government as paramilitaries or denounced violence and joined mainstream politics, and some legitimate Tamil-oriented political parties reamin, all opposed to LTTE's vision of an independent state.

You cannot just keep blaming Tamils, as you normally do. The main reason for the war was 'Sinhala Only' policies adopted by Sinhala politicians to get elected. |
