Why Prabakaran and his outfit must be annihilated for the people those who are living in northern and eastern Sri Lanka

The various political parties in Tamil Nadu have scant understanding of the plight of the Tamil speaking Sri Lankans and do not comprehend Prabakaran's outfit has become a bigger problem for the Tamil speaking Sri Lankans, than the Sri Lankan governments ever were. Some of these Tamil Nadu political parties may be genuine in their ignorance or confusion, while others are either in Prabakaran' payroll or are using Prabakaran and the travails of the Tamil speaking Sri Lankans as a cats paw for other gains. Where their concerns were when Prabakaran deliberately, calculatingly, cunningly and quite cynically messed-up every opportunity, including the Indian intervention in 1987, to resolve the problems of the Tamil speaking Sri Lankans in a pragmatic manner and schemed to instigate war and heap more miseries on them.

Tamil Nadu politicians and political parties shouldn't sacrifice the Tamil speaking Sri Lankans at the alter of their ambitions, ignorance or venality. The demise of Prabakaran's outfit is not the end of the Tamil speaking Sri Lankans. Prabakaran's outfit is not the Tamil speaking Sri Lankans and it never did truly represent Tamil speaking Sri Lankans. It does not represent Tamil Speaking Sri Lankans at all now. Prabakaran's outfit rode the grievances of the Tamil speaking Sri Lankans to become over time their main tormentors. The current war was brought on by Prabakaran's outfit, because it did not empathize with the plight of the Tamil speaking Sri Lankans and their pleas for peace at any cost. The Prabakaran's outfit is a cancer that has to be excised immediately from the affairs of the Tamil speaking Sri Lankans. The Sri Lankan government is doing Tamil speaking Sri Lankans a favour by trying to destroy Prabakaran's outfit. Tamil speaking Sri Lankans will not be able to do this without the help of the Sri Lankan government. Tamil speaking Sri Lankans have to be thankful to President Mahinda Rajapakse and the Sri Lankan armed forces for trying to put an end to Prabakaran's menace. It is a historical congruence of necessity, uniting Sri Lankans as peoples. This war has to be fought to a finish, to end all such wars in the future.

Recently several people, who support Prabakaran said in public speeches in Tamil Nadu that Sri Lanka is a racist country and only a Sinhala speaking Buddhist can become the President of the country. This is not true. Sri Lanka so far has not produced a President from among the minorities. Soon the day will come when Sri Lanka will have a President from among the minorities. Racist policies are on the wane as in today's USA with Barak Obama making his presence felt. India has risen over insular politics having appointed Muslims as presidents. Today's Prime Minister is minority Sikh. Remember Tamil speaking Sri Lankan Kumar Ponnampalam made a bid for the presidency.

Jaffna Mayor Alfred Duraiyappa - a great Tamil speaking politician and the best Mayor and Member of Parliament Jaffna ever had, was assassinated by Prabakaran himself to set off the Eelam conflick. Prabakaran and his outfit soon turned to Hitlerite fascist terrorists.

The nearly three decades of war have seen many innocent Tamil and Sinhala speaking Sri Lankans murdered in cold blood by Prabakaran. Rajiv Gandhi, who tried to broker a peace between the then Sri Lanka Government and the Prabakaran was mercilessly bombed by Prabakaran's suicide bomber in Tamil Nadu.

Prabakaran and his outfit must be annihilated for the people live in northern and eastern Sri Lanka to live in their ancestral home in peace. Prabakaran and his outfit must be decimated now. The war became necessary and inevitable due to actions of Prabakaran and his outfit and they alone are to be blamed for the consequences being visited on the people in the Vanni. This war being fought by the Sri Lankan armed forces on behalf of every Tamil and Sinhala speaking Sri Lankan against what has become a national menace transcending the communal divide. This war may be the turning point in the history of Sri Lanka, as it has transcended narrow parochial concerns and elevated itself to a national and all encompassing level.
