How can anyone activate any proxy group without bypassing the Sri Lankan security apparatus. Sri Lankan military is not what it was 30 years ago. It has developed to cope with the asymmetric warfare of insurgencies. So there will be no possibility of anyone activating a terra proxy in Sri Lanka.

In the end there is no barrier for prosecute terrorist under the legal methods using prevention of terra acts. UN can't even do anything about that. So keep dreaming.
Just butting in...

as the security apparatus of many countries have been upgraded to handle new threats, so have the groups trying to infiltrate. modern proxy groups do not use guns, they infiltrate hearts and minds of populace from within.

On the main point.
while i doubt anyone in india has any sympathy for LTTE, except for a small groups like vaigo and his ilk. LTTE has no chance of a comeback in srilanka or elsewhere.

When LTTE was crushed, it was crushed forever. It will never be revive. All US and other HR champions could do is to bark.

LTTE as an organization was crushed. But there ideology is still popular among the Tamil masses because LTTE's political arm which is the TNA (Tamil National Alliance) is not prosecuted for their crimes against the state. I think that's what we've got all muddled up. Sri Lankan central government couldn't counter the elamist ideology among the Tamils yet. It is the key for political settlement in Sri Lanka.

Integrating Tamils into mainstream is the way ahead.


Compare with Lankan Muzzies they will be loyal to the land of their birth, if Lankans give them respect.

The willingness for integration must come from Tamils. It can't be forced on them and us simply by we Sinhalese accepting their every demand. There should be a meaningful compromise.

No, I don't think US is trying to mess with Sri Lanka on the port deal. This is merely a plea from the LTTE groups living abroad to revive their former terra organization. AFAIK these very same people had given full support for the Hillary during the last presidential election by creating front group called "Tamils for Hilary". Once they realized Hillary was lost they changed the name of the group to "Tamils for Trump".

I sincerely hope that following the victory of Trump, the US outlook on Sri Lanka will change for better.
It may just be a plea from LTTE groups in America....
It may just be America using LTTE for its interests too...
If CIA hasn't given go ahead on LTTE, then a voice wouldn't have be raised. If CIA wants something it'll get it by hook or crook...
We can always hope to get things better and reality might be different

The Ltte through their inhumane attacks on civilians and religious sites, as wrong as they may be, did bring to international attention the atrocities and inhumanity the Sri Lankan government perpetrated upon the sri lankan Tamil minority. In a war where neither side is right it's hard to condemn one and not the other

Those non Indic terrorists have killed 1700+ Indian Warriors and wounded 1000s as well in war.

Also killed Our PM as well. I this this alone proves that those LTTEns are terrorists.
