KILINOCHCHI HAS NOT BEEN CAPTURED (AT LEAST NOT YET). PLEASE DON'T FALL FOR THIS RUMOUR. MANY JOURNALISTS ARE HARASSING ARMY PERSONNEL BASED ON THIS RUMOR. THIS HAS LED TO A RACE BETWEEN JOURNALISTS TO 'BE THE FIRST'. WE WOULD LIKE TO URGE OUR READERS TO CHECK THIS BLOG FIRST BEFORE JUMPING TO ANY CONCLUSIONS.

Iwill not let it go to eelam supporting group.
Where are those mangy loud mouthed Tamilnadu ponnayas, when their own country is being set on fire by a bunch of boys barely out of their teens?
Do they shout only when 'tamils' in SL are affected?
It's all bark and no bite, ponsi celluloid heroes.
These guys should be called 'cowards' each time they talk against us in future. Our dogs like Mervyn shold be set on fire to call them dirty names when the need arises.
Regarding the "closed email group:"
be careful guys. I don't think we will ever have the ability to screen people sufficiently to prevent leaks to the LTTE. The LTTE has been in this business for a very long time, and some of their people are in "deep cover."
My own policy is the following: If I get a really good idea that could help the SLDF, I take the risk of making a fool of myself(not being privy to all they know about the situation on the ground), and directly let them know my idea. I don't discuss it in any public forum. General politics and military issues of lesser value that would not impact the lives of our troops, I discuss freely in public fora.
The Tamilnadu political hothambuwas Vaiko and those other fuckfaces are not to be seen anywhere close to the fighting, or even in a hospital.
We've always known these cowards only howl from far, but don't have balls. How about our peelamistic podiyens who were jerking off thinking of tehse cardboard heroes coming to their aid?
Ain't happenin' lil' monkeys..nyet, nada, illey!!

Guys,
Not directly linked to defence. However due to Mumbai terror issue,

Tropical Storm,
Thanks for that info. I wonder if I have mixed up B. Raman with another, Rama Rao?
No. Here is M Rama Rao's interpretation of Indo-Lanka relations:
"Over the past sixty-years, India has been experiencing insurgency in its Northeastern region. There are more than one insurgent group in each of the six-states that comprise northeast India and the people, at least by their physical features are more close to the south-east Asians. Yet, Delhi has allowed itself to look at Jaffna from Chennai prism. Allowed itself to be led by Karunanidhis, Vaikos, Subramanian Swamis, B Ramans and Hariharans. And thereby made a mess of its Sri Lanka policy."
Rama Rao is a journalist and B Raman is ex. RAW (I believe).
According to your experience then, we have converted a former RAW official. Great!
It appears that, as the Sri lankan military and its political leaders are behaving with some dignity, foreign officials are forced to be respectful. Actions clearly speak louder than words. Time for India to come up with some action w.r.t. Sri Lanka.
perein
didn't get your point re: SF in LNP
I agree with Ananda-USA that tactically and strategically sensitive info should be conveyed directly to Gota.
It is probably not wise to post here until such is done and permission obtained from SLDF.
On the other hand there is nothing wrong with having a secure blog either. However, identity is a very important issue.
This requires members to personally know at least one other member and form a circle of trust.
For example I believe that I can possibly identify Rana or possibly meet with AGG. If I meet with one of them and we establish trust in each other, next we exchange each other's PGP encrytion keys created at military grade.
Each of us may then know other members personally, with whom public-keys could be exchanged. Such public keys with their signatures could even be published on the secure web-site. Security checked individuals would be invited to enter the encrypted site (i.e each individual has personally met or know someone who is a member leading back to the originator of the site in a chain of trust). There are different levels of security involved in the above described methods. VPN itself could be used if necessary using security certificates.
Ultimately the level of information discussed should still vary according to the level of security required.
An IT expert working in this area may be able to add further info. However, what we have to ask ourselves is: is it worth going to all that trouble?
DW,
Time for a new post mate, situ is volatile and don't forget to update the blog.
If I am to see the same "KILI IS NOT CAPTURED YET" by tomorrow morning, it is not acceptable under present circumstances. So start writing some thing now, bro.
You don't have to invent moon rocket again just give us present situ in north and that will be sufficient.
Hi
Read the following article
http://www.tamilnet.com/art.html?catid=13&artid=27617
It is not that easy to capture Killi as some of them still day dreaming
Hi Rana
Situation is still the same. Killi is not captured and never.
So DW doesn't have any news because there is no progress.
නිසල්ගෙ අදහස හොඳයි හැබැයි අනිත් අය කිව්ව වගෙ භයානකයි.
If you really want, you can post messages here encrypted using a public key, so that only people with a private key can decrypt it. The private key has to be exchanged person to person. But of course it is better to talk directly to MOD, or create a chain at personal level to someone who has a direct link to MOD, to convey sensitive information.

Another step to linking up the 59th and Task Force III. Thus cutting LTTE territory in half.
Hi Infinity
How far is it from Mula?
Is it significant?
Lalith, Look yourself:

patriots,
if anyone needs to say anything important to MOD, please use the email addresses given. also identify yourself CLEARLY IF it is about a suggestion.
there is NO NEED to go through a third party or someone "known" at MOD. GR prefers a direct contact in matters of HIS attention.
1. there is a documentary evidence.
2. someone will SURELY read it although you MAY NOT get a confirmation
3. you remail can be taken to others at MOD in case it need to be discussed.
4. do it repeatedly and if they find that you make sense, they will contact you via email first.
i meant email.
Hi Moshe
What is this MOD?
IF for any reason anyone do not want to take it to the MOD/GR himself, then write to a PATRIOT who will.
never share your knowledge THAT OUGHT to go to MOD/GR, etc. with anyone of dubious disposition.

Morale of the troups are also equaly important as tactics and equipment. There was a time our soldiers were allways ready to run back whenevr LTTE attacked. This was going to happen when they almost took over Jaffna. Two people saved it. Janak and Fonseka. Janaka used mMBRLs and tactics. What fonseka did was employ Military police and some troups to shoot our boys who were running back. Hence the phrase 'issarahing jhoniya pitipassen Phonia'. They coudnt run.
Now this fear pshycology has completely reversed. Vezapillai is using Fonseka tactics so that their cadres dont run. There was a story about some of them being chained to bunkers in Muhamali. The pioneers in changing psychology was the SF troups. When SF was on the offensive Terra realised it is not easy and they started running.
I had the opportunity once to be with SF just after a special op. Few of them were killed. hey maitained complete radio silence untill the mission was over. When they came +back they were- not tired a bit. When I asked one of them how was it one officer remarked ' kick eka madi sir'. What he meant was there wasnt much fun. They are adrenalin junkees.In a good way.
So anybody trying to glorify imran pandian or black tigers it is only in the past. Where are they anyway.

Modayas of Defense !
Sri Lankikaya-
Under the name of "Special Force" in LNP posts some Security info time to time.
You will some of his posts under below link.

Hope that would help.
BS in TN about the night raid of the SLAF is untrue.
no civilian could have been injured in the attack unless they were doing blow jobs in the tiger bunker at that time of the night!!
there is no need to consider the TN BS.
SLAF MUST CARRY ON. that is what peaceloving ppl in vanni wants. according to sources connected to relief workers, ppl celebrate when LTTE camps are hit by SLAF

We can do it like this.
1. The modarator has to publish his email. (he can create a new email address only for this purpose)
2. The moderator has to identify the initial members and ask them to send email with google profile id and nickname. (If somebody does not want to expose his real identity, he can create an email address just for this group)
3. The moderator has to generate a secrat code (eg. a random number) for each member and send to them by email.
4. The moderator should publish a blogger blog (eg. dummy.blogspot.com) and then the members has to enter their code to that blog as a comment. So the moderator can verify the blogger id)
4. The moderator should create a new restricted google group and invite the members to join it.
5. To add a new member to the group, an exsisting member has to propose and all the exsisting members should agree.

dumindak @ LNP said...
'Even after 24 hours indian commandos are not able to bring down the terrorists. I asked from an indian friend why indian commandos are so inefficent, and our Special Forces will do it in within an hour.
his answer was india is the 'biggest democracy'. that why the delay in shooting down the terrorists. even before a commando wants to shoot a terrorist he has to get the vote of other commandos, so it delay the shooting.
and he says democracy sucks our country.'

'Holi cowwams, thats awful,
so when commando #1 sees a terra , he calls 'I got a visual on 1 bad guy 12.5 meters west, calling for vote to shoot, #1 YES, #2 YES, #3 YES, KABOOOOOOOOM .. aftger few mintues #4 says : We have a situation here, #1,2,3 are down, I repeat # 1,2,3 are down and I have a visual of the bad guy, I call vote to shoot #4 Yes #5....... ??????????

will DW hit 800 this time as well?
seems it will
Guys,
Becareful if someone unknown to you tries to contact you over Skype. I think LTTP coolies are trying to pretend as defence officials and contact online fellows.
I can not reveal much info about my encounter.

TropicalStorm,
"He expressed his admiration for the SLDF standards long before the Mumbai attacks took place, in a private correspondence with me."
Then can you explain why B. Raman constantly praises the fighting ability of the LTTE, even now when they're losing, and says that there's no military solution to dealing with the LTTE???
How would you explain this crap:
http://forums.sulekha.com/forums/coffeehouse/b-raman-s-views-on-ltte.htm
I have been consistent in my views that:
(a). "The Sri Lankan Government has been trying for a dictated peace. This should not be accepted by India and other members of the international community.
(b). "The Sri Lankan Tamils need the LTTE to protect them from the Sinhalese extremists, but it should be the LTTE minus Prabakaran and others involved in the assassination of Rajiv Gandhi.
(c). "India should not have anything to do with the LTTE so long as it is led by Rajiv's assassins. If it removes them, the Govt. of India should give it its full backing.
Mayilravana,
"I agree with Ananda-USA that tactically and strategically sensitive info should be conveyed directly to Gota."
I have to ask this question: do any of us here have any kind of access to sensitive information that would be of use to the LTTE??
''I have to ask this question: do any of us here have any kind of access to sensitive information that would be of use to the LTTE??''
its bullshit man..LTTE knows when Gta and Fonskea was to Land in Palali and LTTE knows when Fosneka going to come out of his office which none of us knew. Basically LTTE get everything from our high ranking people.. You and me talking so called sensitive information is bullshit for LTTe..

Troops of the 59 Div enters Otiyamalai: LTTE beaten off with
Wow, I'm so glad. Few hours ago, I insisted the importance of 59th TF2 and TF3 getting combined and assaulting Oddusudan together. As a pre-requisite they ought to clean the blinking AOI region in defence maps. I suppose it falls into the hands of TF2 as TF3 and 59th are getting higher resistance.
Ever since its creation offensive unit TF2 or 62nd div has been quite lagging in their area. As per my memory their initial leader Ralf Nugeira is replaced by Rohana xxxxx. And still no progress can be seen. Ideally the westward move of 59th and eastward move of TF3 should be patched by TF2 around Nedunkerni.
Their are few important facts in this approach. Firstly having three units attacking Oddu at once makes it hardly defendable for them. If Oddu is challenged by only TF3 and 59th, pussycats know that they are long past do-or-die level too. And they might give up Oddu and use the AOI like a Trojan Horse to pound the sinhala villages. If lucky they can move close to Trinco.
If we seal this lid of AOI region properly I'm sure that will go as the biggest loss to tigers in the time to come [and that is why I call Kili as a museum now]. After that they will be limited to the triangle of A9 A34 A35 and lone EPS camp. SLDF can continue penetrating that region concentrating on harvesting.
Let's leave it in the good general's trustful hands.
Nevertheless, the focus will soon be on A34 like never before.
hi guys,
few groups now almost evry where in the klil(exactly 3 groups).technically its captured but so far so much to do eore announcing it.seems to me SLA wants clear everything before jump in to anything.
Rana & MD,
wednesday attck in mumbai remebered me the anurdhapura attck.definetly taliba got the tactics from the ltte.
1.as per one of my indian friend that there target definetly the tajmahal palace.because of its near the indian gate and histrocal value of this monument.simply it hurt the indians
2.station and the restaurent what they used to aviated the atention of the militery.as what ltte did in anuradhapura using their Zlins.
3.closely look what mumbai terrerist brought with them.grandes ..AK47 and lounchers.but for me this is unbelivable.no one couldnt carry amount of amo for 3 days in two schhol bags.defenitely they have used a stock they kept in side the hotel well before.same thing happend in anurapura where female two cardrers use anti aircraft gun to destroy the air ships.please note with out this move damage very minimum in anauradhapura.
what inidians lack,
1.comparing to slf they late to respond.with in 45 minutes time SF airbone from vavunia they came to site prety quickly.what india did in mumbai is hillalrious .simply gathering int.is unbelivably poor.when this kind warfare you need to agher s much as infromation very quickly.thats waht vavunia camp did in anurapura.it is sorry we lost bell there.but its and diffrent story.
2.when SF came in to the party they known what they have on thier hands.thats importanet.mmbai army lost in here.they failed to identify their primary object.if they want battle or try freee the hostages.
3.indian commandos ..what the hell hat mucjh of commandos doing against 38 terrerists.huh when it comes to taj mahal apalce there may be 15 or 20 tererist.i saw in media there may be 1000 of commando aginst this 15/20.see only 12 SF came to rescue one whole garrison.they knew they have the support and they belive it.
4.india need to learn from srilanka how to handle media in a crises.every ones know what is going to happend in next minute.if the terrrist use satelite phone unfortunaetly they did in mumbai out come defenitley this.
...come on india ..dont be panic learnf form SF's.when the first SF who saw the first ltte guy in vavynia at around 1am huh he act like oh man indan will learn from these ,istakes.if they want srilanka can learn these tricks to not only to them even to world.
sorry guys lot of spelling mistakes ..forgive me...wanni is lot more cooler than it never before..
mind you now SLDF can go 25KMS to enemy terrtory and coma back saftely.if there any thing happned SLAF never worried to airbone to safeguard 4 soliders.tahats SLDF.world greatest when it comes to teeror handling.

I know for a fact that we have a considerable amount of casualties and injuries to our (SLDF). I do do want to spell out details for obvious reasons.
Are our forces under pressure to achieve its goals and targets which is necessarality due to the advantage of the war. Is this causing unnecessary risk to the soldiers. Can we not slow the pace to minimise our human loss and injury.
Keyboard warriors aside, the fall of killinochchi is irrelevant in the grand plan of things. Once completely surrounded and bled off of LTTers, the real estate can become waste land in no time. There is none to be gained from making a media splash other than short lived glory for the otherwise not so popular government. It will only bring out the TN monkey circus howling from whatever they are hiding under right now, in fear of attacks in Mumbai. Perhaps that may not be a bad idea right now; to make them howl and have the Indian Central govt cut their nuts off.
Once Paranthan is taken, and E'Pass neutralized, the game is going to be changed and for good.
What happens in teh jungles will stay in the jungles and will not be the stuff of media or sentiment.
killert
The SLDF has frightened the hell out of the fat pig to teh extent they are in total hiding.
All that is now needed is more time for the SLDF to complete the job. Attacks in Mumbai was a God sent, in that perspective.
An year from now, these blog conversations will be different.
Ravana
The total force of attackers in mumbai seems to have been around 20, from the numbers killed and captured.
It is possible some may have simply dropped their weapons and walked away into the disorganized crowds, to fight another day.
If so, the fuckup in Mumbai will not be over yet.
Dear patriots,
Socket Gel Liners (socks) for the amputee war heroes
A friend and a batch mate of mine living in UK is running a Rehabilitation Aid project to collect Socket Gel Liners (socks) for the amputee war heroes and talking watches for the blind.
Each Gel Liner costs about £10 and so far they have provided 323. The socks need to be washed everyday due to hygiene reasons and takes 2 days to get dried, thus each disabled war hero needs at least 2 socks. The target is to collect 4000 socks.
Please visit the project site, www.ranavirufund.blogspot.com for full details. It also contains links to articles/pictures published in the defence.lk web site acknowledging the donations of phase 1 and 2.
The project has been carried on with full transparency, and after each phase a full project report will be furnished to all donors.
You can donate via PayPal using your Credit/Debit Card by clicking on the "Donate" button on the top right hand side of the above web site.
Please contribute generously, it will cost only £20 to help ease the pain of an amputee war hero who has made a great sacrifice to bring peace to our children.
Thank you
HB
Ravana,
Indian saga is frightening to the entire civilized world. I'm sure that the ideas are copied from none other than pussycats. Other terrorists mostly try sending loads of explosives to targets. Rarely we see ammo being used this way, except for pussycats.
But I suspect that pussycats have deeper link than being mere spiritual guiders.
Note that the logistics must have been handled by the underworld. India is supposed to be VERY big, messy and corrupted. So it is a headache of ten heads for the guys in charge.
One big concern in me is the reverse of spiritual guidance. Ultra-successful approach of Deccan Mujahidin may become inspirational and educational materials for pussycats as well. Although they are breathing hardly in frontlines, we cannot rule out their ability for Mumbai type attacks.
It is a brilliant military we have, not only for the war but also city defences. If only you know the number of cases they avert by intelligence.
A day will come that world accepts the fact that best military for contemporary defense affairs is SLDF in the entire world [perhaps in par with Israel].
Long live our brave hearts and thinking brains..
In my view following are the next militarily important goals for SLDF.
- paranthan: the blockade between regions mula/EPS and kili/kokavil. EPS will feel a tremor with this.
- Clear up of region known as AOI: To avoid any trojan horses. This should happen ASAP before they start a project trojan horse there.
- Having a "hole-less" front from A34 to east shore [say passing thru nedunkerni]: And that will make sure that mayhem is limited to the north of that line. No more infiltrations.
- Chalai along A35: Cut off EPS from rest of the monkey land. It will be the quake for EPS. They have few options such as attack NFL in frenzy, depart EPS gradually by sea, or withdraw from EPS to Mula before this happening.
- Oddusudan: The battering ram is this. Where every opening is secured one has to go in house and look for the rat. Note that this faces the danger of counter attack, but chance of harvest too.
- East: It seems like something is happening in the part of STF in past week. First of all we need to get TMVP under control, and then the east. It is OK to have few terra in some jungles for a change. But there should not be a chance for terra groups to carry weapons in public areas, be it Jeyanthan or Ex-TMVP.
- Harvest [of Elite/hardcore]: Note that this is the only point where pussycats are winning. Averting this has been their no1 strtegy. Need to attack places with most chance. In this ground I go with Kili attack. But I'm yet to know much about its success.
- Tincans: Endless discussion. Time for SLAF to clear its good name.
If we can achieve these then after something BIG is gonna happen. And we can be reactive and play the right cards in it.
I think we should be realistic to have an overall goal of reducing pussycats to a hit-and-run group [i.e. no land control and little cadres and support]. A total elimination is way too far to be discussed.
Bhairav,
"As what Bhavat Gita says, this is our righteous war whether we fail or win does not matter as long as we Tamils should fulfill our responsibilities that next generation can live in peace and harmony regardless of what outcomes of greater Tamil Eelam or unity of one SL."
Unfortunately with your above words, you have demonstrated that it is you who's the Modaya, and a religious fanataic Modaya to drag in the Bhagavad Gita.
With your "righteous war" in progress, the only losers will be the Tamils regardless of the outcome. The Sinhalese are not giving any respect to the Tamils due to the LTTE's efforts; as this blog demonstrates, this "righteous war" has fed anti-Tamil racism with patriots here using terms like "sakkiliya" and "Ponnaya" to describe Tamils.
The more this war drags out, the more Tamil society will deteriorate into destruction, poverty, and lawlessness. One can make a great argument that the LTTE and its path of ruining Tamil society is playing right into the Sinhala supremacists' demands.
Perhaps the best thing for LTTE supporters to do would be to swallow the cyanide capsule and give that much more time for the other Tamils to begin the long task of reconstruction.
Wijepala
I made your argument years before . if the Sinhala wanted do ill on the tamils they couldn't have invented something better than the LTTE ever . Pity the tamil leaders never realized that .
"...I insisted the importance of 59th TF2 and TF3 getting combined..."
It will be TF4+59+TF2+TF3 (according to many news reports).
"Then can you explain why B. Raman constantly praises the fighting ability of the LTTE, even now when they're losing, and says that there's no military solution to dealing with the LTTE???"-Wijayapala
"India should not have anything to do with the LTTE so long as it is led by Rajiv's assassins. If it removes them, the Govt. of India should give it its full backing."-Raman
This was a long time back. Well before Thamil Chelvam was killed. During that time, people like Raman had plans for Thamil Chelvam as the LTTE leader and wanted to get rid of Prabha and Pottu. But we were able to get rid of Thamil, ruining that plan. At that time I thought that our military, being aware of that plan selectively eliminated Thamil. But, considering the capabilities of our Air Force I am not sure about this any more. But knowingly or unknowingly we were able to get rid of the threat. (It may have happened the other way too. Prabha may have been aware of the threat and may have gotten rid of Thamil).
But TS is talking about what he (Raman) believes now. He had long time to change his mind. Forget about the Raman. Around the same time (I think) as of the Raman article, we had a discussion about SF in Defencenet. Not many were aware of his past heroics. Not many had much faith in him. I remember I was fighting with 'Illegal.existance' on this topic (It is bad that he is not writing any more. The guy was always straight talking). Now even Raman is an admirer of SF. Not a bad conversion.
My posts at Times of India website:
Post #1:
"As a Sri Lankan who has watched helplessly the agony inflicted by LTTE terrorists on the people of Sri Lanka, my heartfelt sympathies are with the Indian people in this hour of grief. India created, armed, trained and supported the LTTE in Sri Lanka, intervened to partition our country, tried to control the LTTE when the separatist threat posed by the LTTE to India became evident, and backed out when the task proved to be too costly, leaving Sri Lanka to cope with a muderous terrorist movement. Perhaps now that terrorism ans separatism have come home to roost in India, India will join Sri Lanka in a common struggle to stamp them out where ever they raise their ugly heads on spurious pretexts. "
Post #2:
"When the bodies of 12 soldiers killed by LTTE terrorists were brought to Colombo, Sri Lanka in 1983 after 4 years of prior hit-and-run attacks against the Sinhala majority community, mobs attacked Tamils in Sri Lanka. These mobs fell into the trap set by the LTTE who used this one violent act to tar and feather the Sinhalese forever, to gain a support base, and to justify their awful terrorism that has now consumed over 100,000 Sri Lankan lives over a 35 year period. Note the modus operandi: aggressively provoke the majority community to elicit a violent response, then claim to be the innocent victim, yell discrimination and genocide, and then kill on a massive scale until the country is beaten into submission!"
Likewise, the Mumbai attackers hope to pit the Hindus against the Muslims, and drive an irreparable wedge between these two communities of India. This is the time honored formula that worked so well for the LTTE in Sri Lanka. Indians, ignore the rabble-rousers and do not fall into this trap: advise, prod and support your government in securing your country, but do not take the law into your own hands and resort to mob justice! On its part, the Govt. of India must be prepared to firmly and quickly stamp out mob violence. That is the trap! "
