srilanka wins the LTTE war

TAMIL EELAM ALIVE

---------------------------------------



LTTE is dead,so is the tiger Prabhakaran,his sea,air ,black tigers and the 20,000 diehard Tamil liberation soldiers after 26 year-long war with Sri Lankan arm y,surreptiously and logistically aided by big powers like India at the end part for their vital national interests in taking sides with Lankan-Sinhala dominated government.With the decimation of LTTE, has the original Tamil cause like Eela m been dead is a pertinent issue in South Asia.



LTTE is probably not the cause of the war,but the inevitable consequence of national oppression of the Tamil Hindus by the Buddhist-dominated Sinhala only unitarist foundation of the Lankan state.It has committed blunders in turning friends into sworn enemy like India govt.

Historically speaking, before the colonial British left Lanka in a mess,north east Sri Lanka had been ruled by Tamil kings and later Tamil dispensation for 2000 years in the same way as the rest was in the sway of the Sinhalas who had been Aryans unlike the Dravidan Tamils.The two-national existence was a reality till British messed up the mess had been bequeathed to dominany Sinhalas.

In the process, the Tamil Muslims also had a mixed entity in the NE Srilanka.The political re-union of north and the east is a problem due to Muslim factor.



The media had highlighted LTTE -led assasinations since 1975 till 2005 including PM Rajiva Gandhi which resulted to the absolute vulnerability of the LTTE in the conventional war, which the org.had underestimated inspite of switching over to protracting guerrilla war.Prabhkaran cannot be bent and so he breaks.The thumb rule equally applies to Sinhala-led chauvinisy government.

The world media had forgotten that the first assasination took place when Buddhist fanatic had done to dead a liberal Sinhala President Bandanaike in 1960s .Sinhals could not survive as moderates.Sinhala chauvinism and only Sinhala language Act had discriminated Tamils for long after the British left powers to Sinhla dispensation.LTTE is a byeproduct of legalised and institutionalised Sinhala oppression of Tamils.The deeper faultline lies in the very foundation of Sinhala's SriLankan state.

India might have come to rescue the LTTE at the last chapter of the endgame, but for the PM's assassination, whatever the reason; India navy totally blockaded any escape of LTTE leadership by the sea route because of the assassination blunder.

Actually,LTTE,unlike TELO,PLOTE,EPRLF- now goneor surviving under different identities elsewhere,has been the favourite,blue -eyed baby of Govt.of India.From a scratch,LTTE had been scripted as the most formidable force by PMs and top army generals of India till it progressively degenerated into terrorist set up.From revolution to terrorism- that is the blunder,as Karuna-LTTE no2. who switched over to govt- side as a minister had pointed out.



Srilankan army and the decimated LTTE had committed war crimes for which Lankan generals might be booked.It is upto the USA and other powers to do so.The world has to take the agenda of war crimes seriously.For LTTE, they are physically decimated,but the Lankan generals are alive and could be tried under a judicial dispensation that the world could evolve.

The post-LTTE world of national oppressions

Yesterday, US prez.Obama assured the formation of sovereign Palestine state, and it is going to be,unlike the messy Eelam.The Tamil diaspora in the world and the gen-next woudl insist on eelam in the changed context over a period of time.Rajapksha and his fans assume that Tamil issues is dead with the LTTE; it is far from true- even moderate TULF could launch a democratic movement by default of the LTTE.

Lankan government- deeply entrapped from within by Sinhala chauvinism would definitely propose a softer option - 13 Amendment of Srilankan Constitution for limited and highly qualified Tamil self rule in the East and the North.Even for this move, the prez. has to win JVP and Sinhala extremeist bodies and the fanatical Buddhist order,let alone the UNP.

India would naturally insist on 1986 accord for limited Tamil autonomy.Prabhakaran rejected it and urged upon Tamil self-determination in 1986. Eelam could be diluted,yet eelam is the context for a federal solution.If Sinhala prez. mistakes history,history cannot mistake him.

Irish question is alive since 1922 till 1998 Belfast Agreement.Scottish issue is alive since 1707 AD.Puerto Rico in USA and Quebec in Canada are live wires.So is Basque in Europe,Kurds in Iraq.Chechen issue is alive in Russia after 300 years.No statesman worth the salt would conclude that Tamil eelam is dead with LTTE.

UN is ready to concede sovereignty to 16 nations under C-24.Out of 60 dependent nations registered under UNPO,as many as 20 are viable.UNPO is divided house though.South Asia has another half a dozen nations in wait for national emergence.The unfinished agenda of colonialism also includes Eelam.It could be autonomous or,self rule or, sovereign; a federal solution is the minimal political agenda for a peaceful SriLanka.A Lankan nation with wailing Tamils and smiling,elated Sinhalas ,is not a nation at all ,and a nation is yet to exist in Lanka with the exit of the LTTE.
