Sri Lankan army has defeated the Tamil Tigers

^ Hey genius this is world forum... Comprende? I guess not!!!

Since 1960 !!! and they haen’t been able to achieve much … while as in 9 months Indian supported “freedom fighters” liberated their portion of land…:snooty:

If India was involved on LTTE’s side in Sri Lanka … Tamil Elam would have been formed a long time back :biggthumb

They faught like tigers and died like tigers ..... wish they had an option to shave :D

Ah! another pearls of wisdom.. learn to comprehend the subject at hand then come post something.. Perhaps you should first librate the red coridor before looking at your tiny southern neighbor.

Indian supported freedom fighters.. :rotfl:

Not Tamil Cats, Tamil Dodos :D

why else do you think they call it “aid”…do you even know what “aid” the word means? :slight_smile:

one topic at a time, we’re talking about Sri Lankan victory against LTTE.

Actually Pakistan should ask Sri Lankan army to train their officers (PA) in counter insurgency operations now since they (SLA) have succesfully completed an operation !!!!!

It would go well with general population in Pakistan also since generally people don't take it well if army sends its offcers to western countries for such training !!!!

Good to see the Hindu Tamil Tiger Terrorists defeated by the Buddhist fighting nation of Sri Lanka!

Sri Lanka must get even tougher with the Tamil Terrorists and punish each and every single one, Sri Lanka has the support of Pak and China and must ignore all international calls for restraint and ensure the total political defeat of the Hindu Tamil terrorists following the comprehensive defeat of the Indian-backed LTTE on the battlefields.

Probably would not work. Different terrain/different layout. Sri Lanka was fighting them in jungles. Pakistan has to fight uphill and downhill in some of the most difficult terrain of the region.

Besides Pakistan already has joint anti-terror exercises with various nations.

we wish Sri Lanka all the best in moving forward and ushering peace after a long draining insurgency battle. :k:

reasons:
aye- they are fighting against the ones who defeated russia “the super power”
bee- they are fighting against the ones who THEY trained,… and they trained them well
cee- until now, they did not have moral support from native ppl even from many pakistanis

Just like 10 years ago, many middle eastern countries used to send officers to pakistan to recieve training. I dont know if they are still doing that, but pakistan is still one of the biggest weapon manufacturer in the world.

India blasts rivals' role in Sri Lanka :D

NEW DELHI - India is not happy with the important military role it says China and Pakistan played in the Sri Lanka's government decisive offensive against the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE).

Top government officials in New Delhi have told Asia Times Online that India believes Colombo stockpiled arms and even sought help from military commanders from China and Pakistan before the offensive that decimated the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) and eventually killed Tiger chief Vellupillai Prabhakaran in May.

Chinese and Pakistani arms and direction were the "clinching" factor in the military's victory, top official sources have told ATol.

"With China's increasing role and presence in Nepal and

Pakistan, and Pakistan's in Bangladesh, New Delhi is looking at recalibrating its passive diplomatic approach towards Sri Lanka," said one senior official, who wished to remain anonymous.

"While its main tussle for influence in the South Asia region is with China, India's immediate concern is Pakistan due to the country's role in the past of launching clandestine terror activities, as has happened in Bangladesh," the official added.

Sources say that India has been concerned about Pakistan's reported supply to the Sri Lankan government of al-Khalids (Pakistan's main battle tank), training for fighter pilots, and advanced rocket launchers.

China has also reportedly increased its military relationship with Sri Lanka since 2007. In April that year, Sri Lanka signed a secret US$38 million pact to purchase Chinese ammunition and ordnance for its army and navy, Jane's Defense Weekly has reported. China also gave Sri Lanka six F-7 jets in 2008, supposedly free of charge, according to the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute, to counter the Czech-made Zlin-142s that made up the LTTE's small air force.

India fears that Beijing, with the help of Pakistan and possibly Sri Lanka, plans to encircle its influence in the Indian Ocean. It is concerned about a deep-water port being built with Chinese help in Hambantota, on Sri Lanka's south coast, and has long objected to Chinese involvement in the Gwadar port in Pakistan's Balochistan province.

National Security Advisor M K Narayanan said in 2007: "We [India] are a big power in the region. We don't want the Sri Lankan government to go to Pakistan or China. Whatever may be their requirement, the Sri Lankan government should come to us.''

But the Sri Lankan army chief said in a recent interview that Colombo had to seek out China and Pakistan for arm as India was reluctant to sell it any for use against the LTTE. New Delhi has not been keen to supply "offensive" arms to Sri Lanka due to domestic political considerations in the south Indian state Tamil Nadu.

Tamil political groups have resisted any supply of arms to Colombo, so New Delhi offered it only defensive capabilities such as radars, despite some sections of the government seeking greater Indian involvement in the conflict.

Sympathy towards Sri Lankan Tamils has remained high in Tamil Nadu due to cultural and linguistic affinities. The state's incumbent chief minister, M K Karunanidhi of the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK), went on a brief hunger strike in April in protest of the civilian casualty toll from the Sri Lankan army offensive.

India has thus been guarded in its reactions to the recent end of the Sri Lankan conflict, choosing to focus on humanitarian aspects. The Foreign Ministry said in May, "India will work with the people and government of Sri Lanka to provide relief to those affected, and to rapidly rehabilitate all those who have been displaced."

India will have to calibrate its strategies carefully in the wake of the involvement of other regional players in the elimination of the LTTE. Some observers also say that India, with its major stake in Sri Lanka's peace process, needs to play a bigger role in pressurizing Colombo to move in the direction of federalism and autonomy for Tamil areas.

Given the close links between the populations of Tamil Nadu and Sri Lanka, the former will need to use its regional presence to ensure that the minority Tamil interests are protected in its neighborhood.

Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has said that the plight of the Tamils was much larger than the LTTE, and that he hoped Sri Lanka would show imagination and courage in meeting the legitimate concerns and aspirations of the Tamil people.

The LTTE exploited ethnic strife between the majority and minority communities in Sri Lanka. If the genuine grievances of the Tamil minority are not met, another group could soon do the same.
