Thanks GOSL for helping tamil kids....
Here how the LTTE helped tamil kids.
-OL and AL students to have compulsory training to get killed !
-Children are abducted amid screaming of helpless parents
-Children are threatned to be shot from behind if they don't go forward in the battlefield
-100 children die in LTTE training camps every month.
-14 yr old Kid shot for not joining LTTE
-I went for tooth extraction when I was kidnapped
-Sister killed trying to prevent brothers being abducted
-Child soldier dies of claymore accident
-23 kids abducted in Batti and parents chased away
-5368 kids recruited since CFA (UNICEF report)
-9000 tamil kids have already perished on the alter of self determination
-18000 kids injured, amputated or have become psychological wreaks
-University asked to shut
-Principals killed causing chaos in education
-Children 6 and above ordered to join civilian training
-GOSL soldiers guarding tamil students even during exams
-Parents not sending kids to school for fear of abduction
-Kids who refuse are hanged up side down and skin pierced with orange thorns
-Parents sending kids under for protection of HRC
-LTTE cadres wait till dark, force open and take kids away
-Villages attack LTTE cadres who returned the body of a child
-Canadian tamil appeals for kidnapped neice
-Only 10% of tamil kids sit for GCSE s due to fear of abduction
Can you remember them saying the struggle is because tamil students were deprived of university places !!

Eeky - you should ask yourself why there needs to be such scepticism about 'parcels' in general ....
Well done to the Govty for constantly showing the world that (contrary to what the racist Tamil diaspora would have us believe) that everything possible is being done to help the innocent Tamil civilians have or resume normal lives in areas that have been cleared of LTTE terrorist scum. East liberated .. North on its way ... Sri Lanka being taken back by Sri Lankans for Sri Lankans .. |
