I just came across the below article on the various aspects.. one such is the role of LTTE in Rajiv’s murder..

Rather than CIA angle, the vatican angle has the most convincing reason, as per the above article..

As per this article, the LTTE’s prabhakaran was more under influence of western intelligence (specifically Norwegian intelligence), than Indian RAW.. and it goes on to say, that Karuna was more aligned to indian intelligence..

The later day events conform to this, as karuna broke away, and still protected..

PS: I dont claim the article is 100% reliable.. while we can be skeptic, it need not be outrightly rejected.. there are enough incidents, references, and events given, which can be used as basis for judging its credibility..

I am glad to stumble upon a blog that explains the ethnic history of Sri Lanka. I guess, most of the Indians – both, the ones that root for the LTTE, and the ones that don’t, would not be aware of the existence of two distinct group of Tamils in SL. I am from Tamil Nadu and I was not aware of this fact until I started sharing an apartment with an Indian Tamil from Colombo. Some of the topics that you have touched upon in your blog match fairly accurately with my roommate’s accounts, especially, the attitude of SL Tamils towards Indian Tamils during the early post-independence days.

It is sad that countries like Sri Lanka and Rwanda are still suffering from the effects of conflict caused by colonial-era ethnic polarization.

n.b: I found this http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=2151064219162771887 to be a good documentary on the ethnic conflict.

I don’t have to defend my silence or otherwise to you or to anyone else. If someone writes about every single thing that bothers them, they probably don’t know enough or don’t have enough exposure. Do me a favor & drop your holier than thou attitude.

I’ve moderated your other comment. You’ve said enough on this subject, kindly move on.

Will you be as usual silent on the activities of sonia family or do you condemn their activities..

Let’s meet again in some other post. I think its time you read other posts & commented on those. Thanks for understanding.
