India has rights of an elder brother, says Lanka.

Re: India has rights of an elder brother, says Lanka.

Thats a question that needs answering... Where are the Tigers getting their weapons/ How are these supplies getting to them? Even if we assume that these weapons come from Pakistan as most Indians probably do, how is it that India allows its terrirtory to be used to deliever these weapons?

Re: India has rights of an elder brother, says Lanka.

Interesting... Although, if my Sri Lankan Tamil friend is any source, then Tamils have legitimate beef in Sri Lanka... India should try to stay as neutral in this as possible, cosidering they have such a large Indian Tamil populus themselves.

Re: India has rights of an elder brother, says Lanka.

^^ Tamils in Sri Lanka are the most uneducated, criminal element of the Sri Lankan population.

The Buddhist Sinhalese vastly discriminate against Tamils, so I guess Tamils have a legitimate beef.

Re: India has rights of an elder brother, says Lanka.

Why would LTTE want Tamil Nadu as well?

The LTTE are formed in Sri Lanka to get a territory of their own because they are discriminated against in Sri Lanka by Sinhalese.

As for weaponry. Every single person who knows anything about the conflict knows that LTTE and their supporters in Tamil Nadu get their weapons from India.

They use Freighter Ships who dock 50 miles from the Sri Lankan coast and the Sea Tigers transport the ammo and weapons on to Sri Lanka via speed boats.

Even the LTTE Air Force is smuggled from India.

As for complaining. Sri Lanka has complained many times but because India has huge investments in Sri Lanka and if it were to pull them the fledgling Sri Lankan economy would collapse.

Re: India has rights of an elder brother, says Lanka.

yeh india is supplying LTTE with weapons, right after the indian army fought them in sri lanka, and the indian PM was blown to bits by LTTE operatives. pakistanis arent exactly known for their brain power now, are they..

Re: India has rights of an elder brother, says Lanka.

I never said that the Indian government is supplying LTTE with weapons.

I am saying that Tamils living in India are supplying LTTE with weapons and the Indian government knows about it and wont take any action as it could cause a Tamil insurgency in India.

And thus similarly, India will never supply Sri Lanka with offensive weaponry because it will antagonize the Tamils living in India

Re: India has rights of an elder brother, says Lanka.

^^read that link i gave and even sri lankan government doesn't make that accusation that LTTE is sourcing its weapons somewhere from india.

Re: India has rights of an elder brother, says Lanka.

these buggers(LTTE) have killed their own people(tamils) and they expect others to support them.

Re: India has rights of an elder brother, says Lanka.

India is pretty good at playing politics eh?!?!

Re: India has rights of an elder brother, says Lanka.

So how does LTTE manage to get so many weapons, equipment? Its an Island, so I doubt it just appears like a miracle out of the water...

Re: India has rights of an elder brother, says Lanka.

In black market, you can get Anti tank gun missiles. then you should not have any problems in getting other weapons.

and you forgot LTTE has its own naval ships to transport their weapons. they are called as 'sea tigers'.

Re: India has rights of an elder brother, says Lanka.

This is a video of sri lankan navy destroying LTTE ships transporting weapons.

and dont think LTTE is some group operating in some small territory. they control nearly 20% of entire sri lanka. it is as good as a country itself.

and dont have to some how keep looking for india connection to prove that even india made mistakes just like its another neighbour.

Re: India has rights of an elder brother, says Lanka.

this is a video of a LTTE military cargo ship getting destroyed by SLAF captured by a Sri lankan UAV

Re: India has rights of an elder brother, says Lanka.

actually, you could even get nukes at one stage in black market or perhaps even officially ;). that's why the concerned government or its military doesn't allow foreign agencies to interrogate its scientists ;)

Re: India has rights of an elder brother, says Lanka.

Dont understnd your point... Your arrogance speaks for itself. And then you wonder why Pakistani, or even your other neighbors, dont trust you.

Re: India has rights of an elder brother, says Lanka.

So which ports do they use to smuggle these weapons?

Re: India has rights of an elder brother, says Lanka.

there should be no dearth of ports when they can have their own naval ships. Perhaps jaffna, which happens to be under their control and second largest city of sri lanka

Re: India has rights of an elder brother, says Lanka.

Well, I dont know about nukes, but plans yes.
Still, we are getting of the subject.
The point here was that India is trying to flex its little muscle at our expense...
It claims to be a super power and is trying to usurp our rights in South Asia.
First you denied this, then when I showed you the article you started talking about how India has some kind of Right to make such a claim.
I can tell you this much, India trying to act like big brother isnt in anyones best intrest, certainly not Indias, for a number of reasons..
Whether you like it or not, peace in the region depends on mututal respect, not hegemony... Pakistan for one, will not stand by and allow India to Bully it.
