The World Second Best Terrorist Group

[Chirantha]

Hi,

I'm a Sri Lankan. Sri Lanka's biggest problem is the LTTE (Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam). They want a part of our country! Which what they want to call as Tamil Eleam.

When it started :

This problem started 100's of years ago when the Tamils of India tried to claim that Sri Lanka is a part of India. So Sinhalise started a conflict with the Tamils.

There was a time of peace! :

Even though there where problems with Indian's soon the Sinhalise found the tamils to be nice and for years they live together (marriages with tamils etc.).

The Tamils in Sri Lanka started problems! :

a few years ago Tamils where used to mark exam papers. Then suddenly all the Sinhala students started failing the exams and the Tamil students passing them with A's! Into investigations people found out that the Tamils that marked the papers wanted there kind to be great. Sinhalise where pissed by this and attacked the Tamils in revenge. (The results of this exam failing caused all high positions in the country to go towards Tamils in term would cause the country's leader ship to be Tamils which meant it would make the country more Tamil than Sinhalise). It wasn't fair.. failing a exam you studied so hard to pass.

Then came the virus! :

The Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam which was a terrorist group in India after they killed Rajiv Gandhi (a prime minister of India). They were kicked out of India they had no place to go so they came to the nearest island called Sri Lanka. And under the new leader ship of Velupillai Pirabaharan they wanted the north east of our country saying that Sinhalise don't treat Tamils correctly.

Then the Tamils tried to fix it :

The Tamils noticing there fault in the process and the Sinhalise also knowing there fault tried to live together as before.

And it didn't work out :

As more as the Tamils and Sinhalise tried to work together, Velupillai Pirabaharan (the leader of the LTTE) tried to break them up. He killed Tamils and blamed it on the Sinhalise. Making the conflict even worse...

The Fire started :

When this hate building up the Tamils went with the LTTE and they thought Sinhalise were bad and they wanted to destroy the Sinhalise. They started a spree of Suicide attacks in the capital city under the leader ship of Velupillai Pirabaharan causing the Sinhalise to hate the Tamils

But some people never lost hope :

Even though most people hated the Tamils for destroying there lives some didn't. They wanted peace.. they wanted Sinhalise and Tamils to live together.

The Technology did the thing! :

With the new improvement of technology the people were able to notice that the Tamils that where killed was not kill by Sinhalise at all! They found out that LTTE was the hidden tiger.

So the LTTE lost it :

With Tamils starting to hate the LTTE for destroying there lives and lying about "Tamil Eelam was for the Tamils" the Tamils them self started working against the LTTE.

They went for peace talks :

The LTTE went for peace talks because they wanted to mask them selfs and go international

And then they went International :

Since the LTTE started losing support from the Tamils in Sri Lanka they had no money to run the war on the Sinhalise. So they went to England, Switzerland, US and some other countries and started collecting money saying it was for the cause of the Tamils and sometimes saying "to help the tamils". You may have help them too! But at the end the money ended up in the bank accounts of the LTTE and they used that money to buy explosives, weapons, and things of destruction!

Then the World Noticed :

Soon after the other countries after 9/11 poked there eye into the LTTE and found links that where destructive enough to own them the second place in the terrorist group list. (how cool eh?)

And Sri Lanka is winning the battle :

With more and more bombs getting caught before they explode. With more and more Tamils helping the Sinhalise catch the LTTE. And the International Community closing the LTTE so called money doors. The Sri Lanka Army, Navy and the Air force is winning the battle. In the next few months the North East will be completely under the control of the government and in the next few years we will be able to live a happy life with Tamils side by side with nothing in the way.

Our part as internet users :

As the battle on the ground is important so is the battle of the internet. I have seen many LTTE supporting people in the internet saying how good the LTTE is. If you see one and if you own a control position of that network, forum or website don't forget to ban him out. We as humans must be in one word with terrorists.

Don't let the LTTE fool you! they are fighting for nothing.. They are killing for fun using your money! Money that should goto help children in there education, live and to make a better world.

Terrorism is World War 3. We must all work together to defeat it!

So who is the best terrorist group? The IRA?

It seems like just about every world conflict have similar stories. The one between Tamils and the Sinhalese is no different. I think both the Tamils AND the Sinhalese suck. The Earth is only so big. Except for the most overzealous, overprivileged, or the completely ignorant (which I might add have a nasty habit of rousing up trouble), I understand that most people probably wouldn't care less if they lived together or not. So, if the three groups can shut up, stick their propaganda up their arses and just let the rest of us live with whatever with we have, it would be greatly appreciated.

Not coincidently, I have the same opinion with Korea (the North and South divide), with the Americans, with wherever else similar conflicts exist.

Oh BTW, I'm constantly amused how everyone seems to love the word "terrorists" and "terrorism" so much all of a sudden. It's like it never existed before and it's like just being branded with that word is an automatic ticket to hell. Pssh. With such broad definitions too, it's like you can call me a terrorist for what I just said.

Make no mistake though, I don't condone nor do I give any sympathy to those constantly trying to cause trouble, blow things up, force proganda, make things their way and the like. Whether it be Al-Qaeda, other groups and quite possibly even our own Bush administration. There, I said it.

Al-Qaeda

Wasn't the Colombia's "sendero luminoso" or someting like that the second biggest? Anyway, all kind of communist are terrorist, so the would be the first and al qaeda in second place...

 

[Derek]

I don't really get what this is about.

 

[tmbejoy]

just for the record... is there any terroris in this website, im not gonna take any risk.

 

[QueenHawkeye]

Second best? I don't think that's a proper way to phase it. It sort of makes it sound like terrorist groups are a sport or something of the like.

Chirantha - I am afraid that lot of facts in your post are not correct. We should not post something about some countries without base. I am not posting anything further since that may not be in best tradition of this forum.

 

[Flashgear]

There is no best terrorist group - there is no second best, the biggest is Al Queda though.

Not coincidently, I have the same opinion with Korea (the North and South divide), with the Americans, with wherever else similar conflicts exist.

If you're talking about the fact that alot of people believe that the US never should have gotten involved in that war? I definately agree with you.

But on the topic... Do you really know what the people's intentions are? Can you just look at the person and tell why they are doing what they are doing?

Yes, killing people and trying to rob them of their land is bad, but maybe they don't see the fault in their actions? Maybe they think they're actions are the best course? Who knows? I'm definately not a pyschologist, but I do know that all people will think differently.

Like the Al Queda. It was wrong at the lives they took, but I don't know enough about them to judge them. Nor can I lump the people that live in the Middle East as a single classification. At the same time, the US has killed many people too, which I don't believe they thought well of either.

I think alot of issues come from a lack of understanding.

I think the thread topic is a politically motivated one, and there exists some political differences among the two groups i.e Sri Lankan Government and the LTTE. It does not make them terrorists. Please refrain from making political comments.
