Wrong.
There were two parties locked in dispute in Lanka -- SInhalese represented by the Lankan Govt and Tamils whose fighting force were the Tigers. India -- the mediating force as the pre-eminent power in the region.
LTTE was never the sole representative of SL Tamils, but yes, in a way, you are right - after all they did manage to eliminate other Tamil groups, especially those that were not militant groups.
Common sense dictates that all three should have sit down and hammered out an accord resulting in Tamils achieving their rights and consequently LTTE disarming [that part is debatable as one can say to maintain that devolution you needed a fighting force]. That you could not understand that simple thing shows the hollowness in your thinking.
Common sense dictates that since the very cause that LTTE was fighting against was addressed, that the LTTE laid down their arms, and not LTTE, but all Tamil groups' concerns were addressed. Who takes the first step? That is debatable. Most governments would first ask the non government entity to lay down arms, but you may disagree.
Unvarnished truth - as it is. That you are not able to handle it is not my concern.
I would be happy if you at least had some concern for the SL Tamil survivors, instead of justifying an evil entity.
If this civil war continued, many more SL Tamils would have been killed. I am happy, at least, the chance of something like that happening is slim.
You can look at the past and say anything you want, but I want to look towards the future. Safety and security for the SL Tamils, from their PoV, and prevention of a Chinese military base, from Indian PoV.
Romanticizng about LTTE, sorry, I cannot do that.
I just don't want to respond to your language in kind.
I have much more respect for Rajiv Gandhi - because, he was
Indian.
