A cursory glance of the CFA is enough to know the extend to which the LTTE have gone to make life easy for the Tamils. I wonder if the clauses covering withdrawal of GOSL security forces from HSZ and public places like temples, hospitals and governemnt departments is not looking after the interests of Tamils, then what is?. The caesefire is just that, a caesefire and not a political solution designed reslove all of our problems. A caesefire means cessation of hostilities between two warring parties. The fact that CFA has been extended to include clauses to alleviate the most pressing problems in the day to day lifes of North-East Tamils albeit in a very limited way speaks volume about the sincerity and dedication of the LTTE to address the issues faced by the common man.

I wonder where were you Mr Narendran when the SLAF bombed us out our churches, schooLs and Temples and in the process massacred thousands of innocent school children. Nobody says the LTTE has not committed human rights violations. Child recruitment is reprehensible and should be condemned but so is the death of the five Tricomalee students who were gunned down “exceution style” by the STF.

You talk about a wider partcipation at the talks. Do try and answer this question. Should the talks fail and the GOSL let loose its forces on the Tamils are you prepared to take up arms to defend them?. Does any of the groups you want included is prepared to do that?. Nobody likes violence perse but war was a tool used by righteous forces be it governments or organiozations to fight for what they belive in.

The well being of the Tamils in Sri-Lanka is paramount and all emcompassing and if in the process we have to sacrifice our own interests or overcome our own percived illtreatment then so be it. if state terror was not used to subjucate and oppress us then there would not have been no LTTE and no need for any violence.
