This strategy of theirs was known at public levels for quite some time. <BR/>Also given the fact that the need of the hour is to identify and destroy the big guns, the army high command should have had surveillance aircraft with heat-signature recognition capabilities airborne and waiting to call in air-strikes before committing the troops.<BR/>This is such a management fuckup, that the level of immaturity blows the mind.TropicalStormhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18110816350260622487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5899907675904775235.post-73269891084808128212008-04-26T03:49:00.000+05:302008-04-26T03:49:00.000+05:30PanhindaThis is where the question of why we wante...Panhinda<BR/><BR/>This is where the question of why we wanted Mig29s when the actual need is for heavily armored ground attack aircraft with loiter capability, becomes very pertinent.<BR/><BR/>I really don't understand the reasons behind the acquisition given the very obvious needs being somewhere else.TropicalStormhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18110816350260622487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5899907675904775235.post-20960648498719942292008-04-26T03:46:00.000+05:302008-04-26T03:46:00.000+05:30LankaeNews is important because it is refreshing t...LankaeNews is important because it is refreshing to be able to see some sri lankan p*ssy, for us starved SL Americans.TropicalStormhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18110816350260622487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5899907675904775235.post-2415611982600064882008-04-25T18:02:00.000+05:302008-04-25T18:02:00.000+05:30Muhmalai-2 disaster there was no air support becau...Muhmalai-2 disaster there was no air support because the troops advanced in abnormal weather conditions.<BR/><BR/>Muhmalai-3 disaster obviously occurred because the crucial lesson was not learnt with Muhmalai-2. <BR/><BR/>Brigadier Samantha Sooriyabandara has to be at a minimum demoted.

But I feel the SL gov propaganda is not doing this. The propaganda is mainly focused on the country it self but not internationaly. In country propaganda is important to keep the voter base, but we also need to focus heavily on the IC as well. LTTE is doing this(lies of course)but the answers to their lies must be given to the IC.<BR/><BR/>I agree with mboi, lankaenews is UNP crap. with the way they hit on JVP and Gov u can easity guess it.<BR/><BR/>Thanks DW for keeping us uptodate.<BR/><BR/>THERUWAN SARANAI TO OUR BRAVE SOLDIERS.koombiyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08483203343306117430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5899907675904775235.post-53471726805884374792008-04-25T09:17:00.000+05:302008-04-25T09:17:00.000+05:30im probably asking a dumb question here, but why d...im probably asking a dumb question here, but why did the army not bring down artillery rounds back on the first FDL when the ltte were busy taking pictures of the dead and picking up weapons (as reported in Tamilnet?)
