A few Sri Lankan ex-servicemen have engaged in what some hastily call mercenary duties as part of Private Military Companies (PMCs). This is a growing trend following successful counter terrorism, counter insurgency and close protection experiences and successes of the Sri Lanka Army in recent times.
One of the first SLA officers to take up a contract with a PMC was Brigadier Peiris from Commando Regiment. Brig. Peiris was a very senior officer in the military, even senior than the present Army Commander Lt. Gen. Sarath Fonseka.
Having passed-out from Intake 1 of the Officer Cadet course from the SLMA, Brigadier Peiris soon became an authority on close protection otherwise known as VIP/VVIP Protection. Brigadier Peiris' brother also served in the Army until his untimely death.
Since then a number of officers and men from the Army have take up PMC contracts overseas from Cambodia to Iraq. We have identified around 15 ex-Special Forces who have been in and out of Iraq in recent times alone.
Many of the Officers were junior officers in the Special Forces and Commando Regiments, majority being retired soldiers but also retired Corporals and even Sergeants. Many were fairly young having served 12, 15 and sometimes 20 years or more in the Army. Having joined the Army as young as 18, many of these men know only one thing-- to fight.
They were fairly happy with the benefits they received with each man receiving something equivalent to $2,000-2,500 on average as salary per month. They are hired on a contract-basis and are provided with insurance coverage. Contrary to media coverage of these regions many claimed that their tasks were not all that precarious.
Majority of their duties included protection of private installations and convoys. A number of officers and men from the Engineering Corp have also received assignments in international de-mining operations including the removal of Unexploded Ordnance (UXOs).
Senior Special Forces officers whom we spoke to claimed that the deployment of ex-servicemen was not, in anyway, a hindrance to the Army's reputation. None of these operatives are considered SLA any more and have to engage in these activities as civilians and at their own risk.
It is true that these individuals have obtained training and critical exposure to certain battlefield environments having served in the SLA but the Army no longer has a binding agreement with any of these individuals nor do they towards the Army.
Many of the services these individuals provide cannot be considered as directly assisting the United States or its allies in Iraq. They are now part of a legitimate business to provide security to those who require such and the Sri Lanka Army has no qualms with that.

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 283 of 283The dangers of Tamil chauvinism
Malini Parthasarathy

Online Edition
14th October 2008
The latest campaign in Tamil Nadu masterminded by a desperate LTTE must not be allowed to undermine the sound policy decision upheld by successive Indian governments since 1991 to stay out of Sri Lanka’s internal affairs.
Time appears to have stood still for most Tamil Nadu’s politicians who seem completely insulated from the complex ground realities that mark India’s new political landscape. India’s political establishment and civil society are anxiously grappling with the enormity of the horrific new threat to Indian society — terrorism — fast becoming an everyday reality on the streets. But oddly enough, seemingly oblivious of the contradiction, political parties in Tamil Nadu, led by the MDMK and the PMK, have recently plunged into high-pitched activity aimed at garnering support for the LTTE, a deadly terrorist organisation.
These parties have launched a campaign in the State ostensibly to express solidarity with the Sri Lankan Tamils trapped in the war zone in northern Sri Lanka but the timing of this campaign which appears to have materialised overnight, is a dead giveaway. The Sri Lankan army, just two kilometres away from the LTTE’s administrative capital, Kilinochchi, has successfully encircled the Tigers and their leader who are virtually trapped in their bunkers. For the first time in years, the Sri Lankan government appears to be on the brink of a major success in its battle with terrorism. There is now the very real prospect of the capture of the elusive LTTE chief, Velupillai Prabakaran, who is behind the assassination of a former Prime Minister of India, Rajiv Gandhi.
Tamil Nadu’s politicians clearly have different standards for India and for Sri Lanka. It would appear that they accept that battling terrorism in India and saving Kashmir from Islamist jihadis are important national tasks but not so in Sri Lanka which has been menaced for more than two decades by the LTTE. It was the LTTE which pioneered terrorism in South Asia and produced two generations of suicide bombers who have claimed numerous high-profile victims. For far too long have the legitimate aspirations of the Sri Lankan Tamils been held hostage to the hegemonic ambitions of the LTTE chief Prabakaran who has consistently sabotaged all attempts to find political solutions to the ethnic conflict.
When Pakistani generals and Islamist militants characterise the separatist uprising in Kashmir as a “freedom struggle,” the collective Indian national consciousness is understandably outraged. Politicians in India are rarely exercised over concerns that the human rights of innocent citizens are often trampled upon in police action against terrorists or their perceived accomplices. There is indeed a broad-based political consensus behind the Indian state when it takes strong steps to root out terrorism.
It is therefore all the more incongruous that the political parties in Tamil Nadu, including the ruling DMK and its principal challenger the AIADMK have decided to work themselves into a frenzy over the alleged violation of the “human rights” of the Sri Lankan Tamils in the context of the military action against the LTTE. Evidently, the game plan of the LTTE and its supporters is to rally Tamil chauvinist sentiment and translate that into pressure on New Delhi to signal its disapproval to Colombo, thereby weakening its moral authority in the eyes of the Sri Lankan Tamil community.
There is a strong sense of déjÀ vu, listening to the rhetoric and speeches of leaders in Tamil Nadu, whose understanding of the Sri Lankan political situation is mired in a time-warp, their images of the ethnic conflict drawing primarily from scenes of two decades ago, particularly the flashpoint of 1983, when the Wellikada prison massacre highlighted dramatically the plight of the Sri Lankan Tamil community and brought thousands of refugees to Indian shores. But after the assassination of Rajiv Gandhi, the Indian national psyche recoiled from a continued engagement with the Sri Lankan ethnic crisis.
Since the 1990s, New Delhi’s policy has been to acknowledge the terrorist character of the LTTE and the imperative of a military confrontation with that organisation, while continuing to offer moral encouragement to Colombo to find a political solution that would provide a framework to empower the Tamil community. Meanwhile, India made clear its utter repugnance for the LTTE by banning it not just because it was involved in the murder of Rajiv Gandhi but because it viewed the LTTE as a terrorist movement that would continuously strive to stimulate the secessionist sentiment in Tamil Nadu as long as Sri Lanka continued to have ethnic strife.
The situation in Sri Lanka itself has undergone profound changes since the 1980s, when it was easier to conceptualise purely political solutions and rule out military responses to the violent dimensions of the conflict. At that point in time, it was indeed possible to sideline the militant groups of Sri Lankan Tamil politics by engaging the political interlocutors in the Tamil community such as the urbane leaders of the TULF, notably Appapillai Amirthalingam, who recognised the key to political empowerment lay in the democratic process. But with the ruthless elimination of every credible interlocutor in the Tamil community by the LTTE which insisted that it was the sole representative of the Sri Lankan Tamils, the space for a political solution has narrowed over the years, rendering null and void the several exercises seeking a devolution of power to the Tamil community.
Yet the Thirteenth Amendment to the Sri Lankan Constitution which was a consequence of the Indo-Sri Lankan Agreement of 1987, envisaging devolution of power to provincial councils has become a touchstone for the resolution of the ethnic conflict. The Sri Lankan President, Mahinda Rajapaksa, has made it clear that he remains committed to a political solution of this sort. In a meeting with the All Party Representative Conference (APRC) last Saturday, Mr. Rajapaksa emphasised that it was the duty of the Sri Lankan state “to ensure to the Tamil people of the North the same democratic rights as enjoyed by the people in all parts of the country.” He also took care to explain that the military action against the LTTE was against terrorism and not against the Tamil community.
The Sri Lankan President has acquired unprecedented political space for his military campaign against the LTTE. Several factors including the rebellion of the powerful LTTE commander Karuna and the fact that there is now in place an elected provincial council in the Eastern Province have rendered irrelevant many of the points in the earlier Sri Lankan Tamil political platform. That there is a credible and workable political solution now in sight has made it easier for Colombo to launch military operations against the LTTE. It is indeed the sovereign right of Sri Lanka as it is of India to eliminate any terrorist organisation that poses a fundamental threat to its survival as a nation.
The parties in Tamil Nadu which have strong ties to the LTTE such as the MDMK and the PMK are in the forefront of this new campaign which has sprung to life overnight after decades of silence. Their rhetoric is dated and wearily familiar. The MDMK’s Vaiko, brimming with moral indignation, has lashed out at the Centre for allegedly sending military assistance to Sri Lanka which was “unleashing a genocidal attack on the Tamil race”. Likewise the PMK’s leader S. Ramadoss has alleged that “the situation on the island threatens to eliminate the entire Tamil race”.
That the LTTE’s shadow lurks behind this new campaign is evident in the demand of Dr. Ramadoss that the Union government recognise the “Eelam Tamils struggle for their rights.” There is also an implied acceptance of the LTTE’s claim to be the only authentic representative of the Sri Lankan Tamils in the declaration of Dr. Ramadoss that the LTTE is “acting as a fortress for ethnic Tamils.”
As the LTTE has presumably calculated, this binge of competitive chauvinism has compelled Chief Minister M. Karunanidhi to up the ante on this issue, adding for good measure, his own dramatic assertion that unless the Centre cooperates in stopping the attacks on the Sri Lankan Tamils, not only would the Sri Lankan Tamils perish but so also would the “Tamils in Tamil Nadu.” The strategic design behind the campaign to “express solidarity” with the Sri Lankan Tamils that is now under way in Tamil Nadu should not be underestimated.
For the last decade or so, New Delhi has successfully resisted the various attempts made by the LTTE and its supporters in Tamil Nadu to force it to intervene in the Sri Lankan ethnic crisis. If New Delhi were to express its disapproval, even implicitly, of Sri Lanka’s sovereign right to recapture its own national territory from the LTTE, it would weaken the moral authority of India’s own actions in regard to its struggle against terrorism and the separatist agitation in Kashmir. This latest campaign in Tamil Nadu masterminded by a desperate LTTE must not be allowed to undermine the sound policy decision upheld by successive Indian governments since 1991 to stay out of Sri Lanka’s internal affairs.
thambala,
the new DN article confirms my suspicions unfortunately.
i emailed you this a few days back; thought it was too dangerous to discuss then. now it is out.
probably tigers will increase the explosive strength and increase the number of shapnel as well. i won't be surprised if a tiger suicide bomber carries a claymore bomb tied to his arse or whatever!!
buggers know that during the past bomb attacks, IF the target was travelling in a vehicle, their USUAL suicide bombs have failed but claymores have worked well.
@Rana
You asked why DW is keeping quiet well this is the reason..
1. Defence Ministry doesn’t want any important info to be published about the current operations and a request has been made from all the independent news reporters to maintain silence for certain period of time.
2. As a Courtesy for the request and as support for the ongoing operation DN & DW and even SF in lankanewspapers is quiet.
3. We badly miss the battle info but as long as SLA kicks LTTE ass we are all GOOOO. That means even though we have to wait till Killi is captured.
SO RANA if you want battle news go check Tamilnet you can find upto date info in it.. :)
Malin, yes i agree with u.anyone read Rana's past posts you wd understand it.he is always asking sensitive informations.
we want eliminate LTTE bt we dnt want know, how its doing ,what kind of wepons they using ..they bought MIG29 or not.they are nonsense Questions.may be LTTE wanted to knw prevent and plan their future targets..
its alright if we wipe out LTTE and find out how we did that. dnt knw thats my point of view.
Kapptipola,
I understand why ltte keep quiet for so long while i hear news from my friends that so many SLA is being kiled in the battle front.
I thought if they published it is good to know all of us. but as you said, they might think it is sensitive too :)

Wow you friend sure knows stuff.. can you ask him when do they expect SLA to take control of Killi.. since DN abd DW is quiet i am dead sure u can provide us with better news of SLA casualties and LTTE progress.. please..
then agian if the date of expected fall of killi is too sensitive for normal audiance we undeatand.. guess we have wait till it happens.. :)
panhinda,
i'm not surprised.
contrary to their own admissions, tamil racism started in 1918. that is exactly 80 years ago. rasalingam and john pullei both stated this fact in recent articles in lankaguardian.
TF riots, sinhala only, other stuff had NOTHING to do with tamil racism which had been born by then. BUT these things added fuel to the fire which was already burneing for almost 40 years by 1956.
from the start mainstream tamil parties have been RACIST.
1. all ceylon TAMIL congress
2. lanka TAMIL arse kachchi
3. TAMIL united liberation front
4. TAMIL national alliance
also their racism has incresed from 1 to 4. THIS is the problem.
SL politicos without doing anything about it played with it until it was too late and even now some are playing with it.
but there is a trap. if you want to solve it, you should NEVER ask them what to do!!
do what is right by the COUNTRY and the good men will follow suit, the bad guys will have to be handled violently. there is no point in the country bending over for racial demands; it breeds more demands.
Well said Malin.

Well I will tell you but keep it to yourself. According to the latest info the SLA is in deep SHIT.. I mean deep SHIT. Because they say that the trench line they have dug to protect killi is said to be as deep as the trench between VP two butts.. That right!!! Its unscalable!!! :(

Thanks,EC
MD,
seems you were right about the modifications to suicide kits.
guys,
Many seems to wonder why progress is slowed in march to Kichi.
Let me give a hint.
Kichi capture will coincide budget.
Until then we can hear from DW\DN things like cricket commentary on a rainy day.
Folks, don't worry, India is not going to help VP and Pottaya this time around. India is already in contact with SL at the highest level and they are urging us to finish this war off, quickly and quietly, and then go for an elections in the N, asap.
Sad to see te Ponna Eezam Tamils begging India to save them, especially after what they did to India, and the arrogance they showed after killing Rajiv. Poor sods.
Lasantha getting CollapseComments treatment
LTTE might kill few dozens of Tamil civilians and may blame it on SL armed forces. Tamilnadu is hotting up and if such a thing happens things may quickly reach the boiling point.
Whatever happens there I don't think the offensives gonna be halted.
Hi DifenceWire
Can you please give us a link in your webpage
www.spur.org.nz
from
SPURNZ
Anybody has the latest update on when the Indian Colonial Army is going to come. Is Mahindha Mama going to crumble or real have the balls to stand up to India. LTTE has played it cards so well. Pakistan in dissaray, China is economic dire situation and Indian congress needing support for a nuclear deal to stay or for the government to collapse. Mahindha mama can ask Iran for help which itself is so poor. However this will make the US and Israel so happy with Sri Lanka.
Long Live the village Idiot from Hambota.
Defence column dont be desperate to put news which is for punnaku consumption. Blackwater needs cheap body armour so you too can join.
I heard from the great defencenet and defencewire that cheliyan is dead. Is there any expensive coffin rumors going in. Need to spin more stories to keep it alive. I mean diverting stories like this to divert the attention of people is good also.
Panhinda,
Sorry I haven't gotten back to you yet regarding your ideas. It will take a while to put my thoughts in writing and I have to find a time to do that.
For now I'll say that one of the most important things we have to fix is communication. Nesan did not come here shrieking about Tamil superiority or the inevitable victory of Eelam, but rather to have the chance to respond to what I wrote. I think he may have misunderstood some of it, and there are areas where he flat out disagreed with me.
I'd like to give him a chance to express his views, if it's ok with you. Tamils shouldn't have to believe that they will be ridiculed for sharing their negative experiences with us (well, unless they're LTTE dumbasses who don't know anything), and we shouldn't be afraid of what they say.
Dear "Friend,"
"In your exchange with Echolalia, you are giving too much value to 1983 pogroms."
If you think I believe that Tamil militancy began in 1983, or that there were no problems or racism before 1983, then you are mistaken. The point I was making to Echolalia was that Black July changed the course of Tamil militancy in a direction we're both familiar with- militarization of Tamil struggle, increasingly autocratic bent of Tamil groups, treatment of ordinary Tamils as cannon fodder & extortion farms etc.
If 1983 did not take place, it is far less likely that the LTTE would have become the dominant militant group and its ideology the dominant ideology. I speculated to Echolalia that other groups might have made common cause with southern dissent. The other possibility is that a non-LTTE militancy might have eventually brought Indian intervention of a different type from what we remember.
If you disagree, then bring it on.
"Though 1983 hastened the growth of militant groups and India's involvement, the systemic racism of the State made it inevitable that sooner or later militant struggle would have grown."
The systemic racism of the State or the Regime? In Sri Lanka, unlike India, the bureaucracy/civil service (the "state") had become utterly subservient to the ruling party ever since the 1972 Constitution. My understanding of anti-Tamil violence from 1956 through 83 was that it was NOT spontaneous or random, but rather triggered by events and sanctioned by the regime (that last bit is the key). That is why there was no significant communal violence in the 1960s and no major anti-Tamil riots after 1983.
If the "state" as a whole, or the Sinhala people had really been committed to the destruction of the Tamil race, there would have been no riots. Instead we would have seen something similar to what has befallen the Hindus in Pakistan and Bangladesh.
No pogroms took place in Mrs. B's UF regime, for all its other failures, which is interesting given that the SLFP was the original "Sinhala-Only" party and had no problem looking the other way in 56 and 58. Ditto goes for her regime in the early 1960s. How would you explain that?
The only violence which Tamils faced was the reaction to the 1960 satyagraha and the 1974 conference as you mentioned (and in the latter, the deaths were accidental). Both incidents involved police action, not intoxicated hooligans, and in neither case was the community at large terrorized.
That leaves us with the 1977-83 period- the JR years.
"Many Sinhalese don't know or underestimate how the actions of the State starting in 1974 contributed to the rise of Tamil militancy."
I accept that. Now let me ask this- how many Tamils are aware of how the JR regime had alienated the Sinhalese and used similar tactics against Sinhala dissidents?
"Your claim that Jaffna people voted for SLFP at the Presidential elections in 1982 is also incorrect. My memory is that people boycotted the election as youths as well as the TULF requested the boycott; only the onion farmers, who had benefited during the previous SLFP regime because of import restrictions, voted for the SLFP."
I stand corrected. Thank you for your clarification. However I have some questions below.
"In those days, I knew KT Rajasingham of Asian Tribune as the corrupt Jaffna organizer of the SLFP, and he should be able to tell you how the SLFP got the votes."
I don't know Mr. Rajasingham, and for some reason I've been banned from Asian Tribune so I can't ask him. Could you tell me how the SLFP got votes in Jaffna when the UNP was in power?
Duraiappah was the SLFP mayor of Jaffna in 1975. How did he get elected?
"1983 was not spontaneous, but the racists guided by Cyril Mathew, et al. had been preparing to attack Tamils on a large scale and simply found an opportunity at that time after the LTTE ambush."
That is my understanding. JR most definitely knew about it and believed that it would "teach the Tamils a lesson." What he or Mathews may not have anticipated, however, were the consequences.
wijayapala said...” unless they're LTTE dumbasses who don't know anything), and we shouldn't be afraid of what they say.”
Wijayapala, r u talking about Navindran??
Ha ha ha!! Sorry to twist and use ur words like this mate. I am just having fun with an Intelligent Being from far far away galaxy of Tamil Peellam!
Anyway, Chief Economist of Tamil Eellam: Navindran spoken AGAIN!
According to Navindran, LTTE successfully put “ Pakistan in to disarray “ and also managed to drive “China’s economy in to a dire situation” and now going to make sure “Indian government to collapse”! And what about the Iran??... eerrr...he is not sure!!!
Navindran, what else LTTE going to do in the future? R they going to send a monkey to the moon? and make that monkey the Finance Minister of Moon Tamil Peellam?
R u looking for an expensive coffin? For what? Eerrrr….. so why need punnaku if u gonna die? I am confused????
navindran,
so you seriously think that mother india will come here to get gang banged again as in 1987-1991 (when it ultimately ended)????
so you want all the rapes the IPKF did in jaffna to be repeated so that the victims (and victoms' children) can become suicide bombers one day????
no, mate.
manmohan sigh had said it very clearly that india has no fcuking right to interfere in the affairs of another sovereign state.
too bad tamil elam is not a sovereign state.
if you want to see tamil elam look in our toilet pit. if you find it there, well & good. if you don't you will NEVER find it elsewhere.
I don't wanna talk
About the things we've gone through
Though it's hurting me
Now it's history
I've played all my cards
And that's what you've done too
Nothing more to say
No more ace (black tigers????) to play
The winner takes it all
The loser standing small
Beside the victory
That's her destiny
I was in your arms
Thinking I belonged there (no way!!!!)
I figured it made sense
Building me a fence (FDL???)
Building me a home (fcuking tamil homeland???)
Thinking I'd be strong there
But I was a fool
Playing by the rules??
The gods may throw a dice
Their minds as cold as ice
And someone way down here
Loses someone dear
The winner takes it all
The loser has to fall
It's simple and it's plain
Why should I complain.
I don't wanna talk
If it makes you feel sad
And I understand
You've come to shake my hand
I apologize
If it makes you feel bad
Seeing me so tense
No self-confidence
But you see
The winner takes it all
The winner takes it all...
Karambaaaaaaaaaaaa,
Ooooooops,
Wijepala/Agg You guys are fucking fast. Ok you have answered some peelam dogs already.
Assasin,
I will go for the second option.Evev if they loose job only for 2 months.These TN politicos have enough money earned for another 2 decades(Public money and LTTe money).For them no worries.There is a another worry for them,now they are worried about Jayalalitha. Haah what a joke.Now centre is considering about making friendship with Jaya.
Thundering Typhooooooons.Ohhhh yes its raining.
navindran,
You peelamist showing your knowledge about world affairs. Oooops sorry,I forgot you think whole the world should be as per your peelam dream.Only white asses are superior.
Iran is poor??????? haaaaaah my my where did you get these statistics from?????? May be from UN/NGO friends.
Did you guys read the India's comment about TN stupidity.Jaya earned some credits out of this.Centre clearly said Sri Lanka is souvering country. No mention about peelam.
India is more worried about PAK and CHINA getting closer to Sri Lanka than this peelam/tn idiotism.
AGG,
They don,t need expensive coffins this time.Our boys will take care of them.
Assasin,
Now vezapillai and others have to find Killi express out from Killi to Mullative Jungle.You know this time monsoon also not going to help you guys.SLDF boys proved in Mannar last time,how good they are during the rainy season.Rain is goood,you cannot use gas and all jonnies will start floting.SLDF's always think positive.B+
Blistering Barnacles!!!!!!!!!!
lasantha,
poor bastard,You got your mom raped through this blog.
DW,
Brig Peris's brother was in the Airforce.He was one of the pioneer officers' of the AF commando type unit.He died during a training session.They misjudged the height of the rope during heli drop training.He landed on the tarmac braking his legs and back bones and later he died.He was a six footer and a brave soldier.
Why not PMC's job instead of jobless and mind going for shitty jobs.If peelamist can earn money through drug smuggling/human trafficking/gun running/prostitution/child soldier training/thuggery/bank robbing,why not through legitimate job.Anyway SL gets foriegn currency.peelamist are worried about all these money coming to SL.
Karambaaaaaaaaaaa,
Hellow guys,
What is this crap Lasantha is doing, copying same thing again and again? Who is trying to disrupt this blog?
Sorry about what happened yesterday.Actually someone hacked my account to tranish my name and the party name
anyway sorry 4 all the inconvenince cost

Some photshopped LTTE photos of students all over tamilnadu. Looks like defencecolumn needs to find more articles to link to.
assassinrajive just come and go.. I don't get it
In my humble opinion he is telling the truth
LRRP is the way to go..
Keep it up man.. I like what you have written there..
Navindren
Ya. This is photoshopped. These boys are all tigers. Taking photoes in vanni then publish as in Tamil Nadu.
And one more thing about India,
India should not help GOSL in ANY MEANS. Then we will not ask India (Tamil Nadu)to help us.
Deal?
"A decision was taken yesterday at the All Party Conference (APC) held in Tamil Nadu Chief Minister’s office since 4.30 PM to 8.00 PM that all Tamil Nadu MPs of upper and lower chambers of the state council should resign if the center fails to intervene to urge Sri Lanka state for a ceasefire within two weeks." - LEN
Vezapillai's ass to be charred in two weeks? At last pillai needs rescuing... lolz
Whooooo did everybody see that link Navindran gave.. my GOD it sent shivers down my spine... :(
So many new carders for LTTE, when they come to Sri lanka to fight SLA we have run like hell.. my GOD only god can save us now...
And see how ferocious they are, the way they burnt and hacked at that dummy I mean these are the REAL men. Just think what kind of chance would our poor SLA boys have against those guys who can dance on top of buses while they move.. Super guys just like in Tamil movies, one of those guys can take out an entire SLA regiment
Ohh please don’t send them here please Navindran your are scaring shit out of us…
Navindran : machan, we r missing one picture there. Where is the last picture? Where they eat the roasted dummy?
Tamil Nadu: capital of dummy bashing/burning/eating and monkeys with bristle on the upper lip!
What’s with the Tamiza people and bristle on the upper lip? I thought u guys have moved on from Rajinikanth? lol
Navindran - the tamil-tiger who picks up stories here and there from the net and tries to make up his own stories that do not make any sense at all,
"Anybody has the latest update on when the Indian Colonial Army is going to come."
That would be when you have your next dream, probably tonight
"Is Mahinda Mama going to crumble or real have the balls to stand up to India."
He doesnt really have to stand up to India cos they (Indians) have already made it cristal clear - "we dont want to get our asses kicked again by getting involoved with SL conflict", Its just the south Indians - even fellow Indians dont give a fuck about those southern Tamils unless they got some shit to be cleared up - so why the fuck should Mahinda-mama care ?
"LTTE has played it cards so well."
lol how? By blowing off Rajiv in to pieces? thats how best they played their cards - still haunting
No amount of begging/sobbing/crying/cock-sucking would change the stance of the real Indians who make the decisions(you assholes fucked it up, big time LOL) - Tamils in the south's got no influence whatsoever on the decisions ( Idiots like Navindran think they do but they'll soon realize lol), they can send telegrams, wadei, thosei, idli, etc but no use - straight to the bin. North will "pretend" to be listening and make few "statements" until the election is over ;) after that they will send their next batch of "Radar operators" to SL and invite another 500 SLA for training LOL
"Pakistan in dissaray"
yeah yeah right - they just singed another deal two weeks back and the next shipment of heavy stuff just landed in Colombo port - your relatives will "feel" them soon.
"China is economic dire situation"
Oh yeah ? Do you think think rising inflation means end of the road for China ? lol bitch, business cycles work differently - its not like your mama's messed-up menstrual cycle or your digesting system, there so many elements and variables. With or without Melamine, China is still "selling" and "growing" lol If you got doubts, go have a look at the Chinese sovereign wealth fund, rate of growth and the inflation rate
"and Indian congress needing support for a nuclear deal to stay or for the government to collapse."
Like i said, a statement here and a statement there, nothing else - Southern Tamils will get fooled again - big time lol Vaiko can go write another shit story " No we can not ", lol
"Mahindha mama can ask Iran for help which itself is so poor."
Well, we just need their juice in the form of oil on credit with sweet payment terms - and we got that plus they extended the credit line - thats all we wanted and that we got with an 85% investment on the refinery business, on top, we dont mind getting some free "dates" though LOL
"However this will make the US and Israel so happy with Sri Lanka."
Again - Monkeys, I mean Indians arent coming here to save your asses, BOY, you are one of the by-products of the last IPKF expedition - Do you think people in the North will want more "mistakes" like you happen again ? Come on BOY, be fucking realistic. They'd rather send their monkyes to Kashmir and have free sex with good looking ones up there than the abused bitches you've got to offer here in Kili LOL
"Long Live the village Idiot from Hambota."
I second that.
and, the "village idiot" has managed to initiate the most number of ( in terms of investment value and scale ) development project since independence - without the help of IMF and other EHM's, just within a period of 3 years - while doing so, he also managed to push the "kallathoni-cock-sucking-bunker-rat from VVT" to the wall (http://www.defence.lk/orbat/Default.asp)
LOL not bad for a sarog-clad-village-idiot - eh ?
I'd vote again ;)

Another thing that the Monkeys have to learn is that Mahinda Ayya can lend as much as he needs, in order to bring peace. The expatriates (as opposed to dieasspora) will bail him out.
Panhinda,
Thanks for destroying the LTTE motar with a bloody big hammer. Justice Sansoni's to be precise.
Thanks heavens/Karma for our Burgher and Muslim brothers. They have stood by us in our hour of need. We can never forget that.
The guy Bhairav appears to have completely lost his bearings. In one post he attempts sound reasonable
"My point is that these Srilankan officers should get more and they should sharpen up their bargain skills.."
then follows up with a howler
"Last time I heard 100s of Srilankan peace keepers were sent home from Haity for sexual assults on local Haitian women.."
Looks like he lost his cool. Turning having sex with prostitutes in to sexual assault. Sounds a bit like turning Sanath adjusting his ear piece into the birdie.
Before long he might assume the status of the imbecile assasin of Indian PM's.
What makes these coolies who wave flags to a foreign queen think that we believe anything they say any more? They should wave their flags in their own adopted colonies.
Rana
"I will not give any credit to SWRD or Sirima for any thing, infact those the two PM's took our country backward by decades."
This is war designed to destroy the Sri lankan nation. We do not need to express whatever division we might have amongst us in front of the enemy. We must all resolve not to demean Sri lankan heroes or leaders no matter what political colour. We have all been fed a lot of propaganda about what bad SWRD and Madam did to the country, but we must not forget the good that was done as well. If SWRD did not take the shine off the indigenous grievances, SL might be a JVP/Marxist regime in the past 3 decades.
Be focused on who the real enemy is. Have resolve to defeat him and grind him to dust so that he and the generations to follow will never have the courage to attempt such treachery again!

Attacks freedom
The Ottawa Citizen
Published: Tuesday, October 14, 2008
The question that should be asked is not "can we afford this war?" but "can we afford a terrorist attack in Canada?"
We should not lose focus that Afghanistan is the crucible of terrorism and it is from their training camps that the graduates fan out throughout the world to make mayhem by terrorist attacks and killings to make political statements. And with that destroys the morale of the citizens whose freedom is under attack.
I come from Sri Lanka, which just experienced its 281 Tamil Tiger suicide bomb attack which barely missed the agriculture minister. With such terrorism, what you see in the morning rush hour in Colombo, is commuters making the sign of the cross or putting their palms together praying that they will arrive at their destination in one piece without their commuter bus being bombed by the Tamil Tiger terrorists. Pray, I just don't want to see this happening anywhere in Canada.

Let's be pragmatic. Canada is not immune to terrorism and let us not have our freedom hijacked by a few who are being trained in the terrorist camps of Afghanistan. The recent court case related to the "Toronto 18" gives us enough warning that we are indeed not immune to "Made-in-Afghanistan" terrorism.

JAFFNA: TROOPS operating ahead of the Forward Defence Line in the general area of MUHAMALE mounted a massive attack on the terrorist line Thursday (16) morning using armour, artillery and other heavy weapons.
Terrorists manning the points at the LTTE line suffered heavy casualties in the fire directed by the troops of 53 Division who later confirmed that a large number of terrorists including two leaders named KANYAN and ISAIMAN were killed. Terrorist communication intercepted revealed over forty Tigers withdrew with severe injuries.
Three soldiers sacrificed their lives while nine others sustained injuries due to LTTE fire.

Navy Inshore Patrol Craft (IPCs) on patrol in the North-western seas rescued eighteen (18) Tamil civilians fleeing in fear of their safety under the LTTE clutches, three (03) nautical miles North of Thalaimannar on the 15th October 2008 around 1115 hours.
The group had consisted of five (05) families and three (03) individuals comprising twelve (12) males and six (06) females. They had fled Pallikuda, an area abundant with LTTE hideouts, located South of Pooneryn, on board a fibre glass dinghy (FGD) fitted with a 15 Horse Power out board motor (OBM).
During the preliminary investigation, they revealed that they had fled from the LTTE clutches due to the fear of abduction, harassment and the lack of basic needs. The whole area, they said, is in a state of instability due to the disarray of the LTTE and its cadre losses in the face of their continuous defeats at the hands of the advancing Security Forces. The terror outfit’s grip on innocent civilians, who have been held captive by its terror dictates as human shields, is being increasingly smashed by the Security Forces’ victories reported in the battle fronts, they further claimed. Breathing heavy sighs of great relief and filled with emotions, they described themselves as being fortunate and lucky to have escaped into freedom since many of their hapless neighbors are being ruthlessly held against their will preventing them from fleeing into liberated areas.
The whole episode is a clear revelation of the ruthlessness of a terror outfit which pays no respect to either human losses or their fellow civilians’ wellbeing.
The fortunate escapees consisted of five (05) children (03 boys and 02 girls), eleven (11) youth (08 males and 03 females) and two (02) adults (a male and a female).
4 bodies with gunshot wounds found in East
This is the latest story from East. From the time SLA captured East, We see this same kind of tragics. Is this what Mahinda Sindayana Intended to do.
We should safegurad our main motherland to protect our people at any cost. Otherwise, this would extend to Vanni as well.
@ Crimewatch:
"But, What the past government did it for tamils?"
For a start, the past governments:
- Built them the best schools.
- Funded the best library
- Gave them the best govt. and private sector jobs
- Let them own and manage the biggest companies in SL
- Let them rule the economy
- Gave citizenship to stateless Tamils
And the list goes on, need I say more?
Everyone is wondering what is happening in the front. So we have intercepted the communication between field commander Gemunu(name changed) to SLA Military spokesman in an attempt to update you all. Here that follows.
Gemunu: Well, our boys, around 10, were killed. We are consolidating our positions. And..
Spokesperson: How many terrorists killed?
Gemunu: It is everywhere is exploding. You know, we are trying to count. I can say 20.
Spokesperson: It must be 20 x 4 = 80 Ok how about progress?
Gemunu: Actually Sir, We stepped back 1 km, no no actually 980m.
Spokesperson: ok lets imagine we have withdrawn withdraw 2km, and say we advanced 1km Ok
Gemune: Yes Sir you can say like that, but..

Any update on the attack on the food convoy..
BLOODY LTTE TERRORISTS SHELL FOOD CONVOY MEANT FOR DISPLACED TAMIL CIVILIANS!!!
http://www.defence.lk/new.asp?fname=20081016_07
ARE THESE THE SUPERIOR WAR TACTICS OF THE LTTE TERRORISTS!!?
SHAMELESS HERMAPHRODITES!
Dont hide the pumpkin into the dish.
For the first convey, It was reported by the SLA that explosives were hidden. Why LTTE should pass the explosive from Vavuniya to Kili, that means from South to North. What a baseless accusation. Do you think anyone believe this story.
For this second convey, SLA says LTTE dont allow the convey to reach them. What LTTE going to do by distrupting food supply. They are actually in need of food supply.
Dont be fooled first and dont fool
The attack on the food convoy looks like another atrocity by the LTTE in order to create a "humanitarian catastrophe", starvation, and intervention. Of course LTTE's cadres will receive food, probably from large stockpiles by now, while the civilians starve.
The government should consider alternative food routes by air. Maybe even allowing the US and India to drop food supplies by air if the situation gets severe since Sri Lankan airforce may be to small. Could also try the send food supplies by ships, which LTTE of course can block, but if they do this will clearly show the world their intentions.
What the FUCK - short nut
- Built them the best schools.
- Funded the best library
- Gave them the best govt. and private sector jobs
- Let them own and manage the biggest companies in SL
- Let them rule the economy

Army captain abducted by a white van
(Lanka-e-News, October 16, 2008, 9.10 AM) The relatives of Army Vijayaba Regiment Captain Asanga Rathnayaka lodged complaints on October 07 in Gampaha police station and the special unit of Peliyagoda police station that Rathnayaka ws abducted by an unidentified group that came in a white van.
When Captain Rathnayaka was returning home from Udappuwa Vijayaba Regiment base in a trishaw, a group in a white van blocked the way for the trishaw at Madugaswalawwa on Gampaha – Yakkala road and abducted the captain. His whereabouts are yet to be known.
Reportedly, Captain Rathnayaka joined a raid in Udappuwa in Chilaw to recover explosives and weapons before this abduction.
Army spokesman Brigadier Udaya Nanayakkara said that Captain Rathnayaka has not reported to duty since October 06 and his relatives have complained to police that he has been abducted. Police and Military Police are investigating the incident, he said.

Despite an earlier security clearance the UN food convoy on the way to Wanni had to return after heavy fighting broke out along the A9 road, UN spokesman claimed.
above is fair reporting...Defence.lk is bullshit to u M's
This is an unacceptable excuse - GOSL/LTTE, you both are delibrately denying our people food and medicine. Could not you bloody stop this fight for atleast couple of hours for the food being delivered - what did our poor tamils do to deserve this treatment? Mr Gota, you can not even gurantee food and medicine to innocent tamils already suffering in war zones, then how are you going to resolve this ethnic conflict? Do you still say that India should not interfere in our internal matters? why not? you could not safe passage food & medicine to tamils in wanni.

DW-
Can we have some details about captured Manniyakulam area as well as the operations ?
Developments in india not looking good on crushing LTTE. They again summoned our ambassador and demanded that we stop the military offensive. This is not a good development. Either we completely ignore them or offer some statement demanding Velu to surrender and for talks.
Good Example for SL and India:
Date set for executions of Bali bombers
Prosecutor: Three militants to be put to death in November over '02 attack
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/27356420/
If it was Sri Lanka, human rights groups would be screaming by now that these people were 'framed' and would be making a case for them. Shows what a lot of 'illegally-raised' money can do for a terrorist organization.
DW,
Nachchikuda adds another 47 soldiers. It was you reporing that A32 road alredy cut off by SLA. How LTTE is still killed this much valient soldiers?
I just read DBS article on dailymirror. Now I understood the distance refered by Sarath Fonseka.
SF said it was kissing distance. He didnt say what kind of kiss. DBS says It may be flying kiss distance:)
And one more thing, LTTE has decided not to withdraw NACHIkuda nad Kilinochci unless all of them engaged would dead. So this is going to be another Do or die battle.
SLA may try to connect Jaffna via sea route with the help of SLN. Then you could say SLA from Vanni successsfully reach Muhamalai and handshake with them:)
Thanks for the important lists for the best source about the blog directories. Keep sharing.
