The Troubled One
Banned
I've been reading a lot about these guys lately, and my interest was piqued. Had they been more moderate in their views and less militarily aggressive(and didn't assassinate the President of India), would an LTTE victory be possible? They did manage to wage war for over 30 years, and came close to overpowering the Sinhalese forces at some points. If their leadership was less genocidal and the organization shied away from practices like child conscription, could they have won some international recognition and thus discredit the Sri Lankan government? Was Tamil Eelam ever a real possibility?
