The USA and the LTTE

“The LTTE may be exonerated now by the international Human Rights organizations but there is substantive evidence to prove that the LTTE recruited small children forcibly in thousands from the eastern Province and used them as cannon fodder in their war for separate state. Three are thousands of the young children who were ranked as lieutenant at the age 14 -16 and were deployed at various points of attacks against the Sri Lankan forces.” (Image: 2“nd Lieutenant Gnanam, Died: 24.11.95)

(March 17, Colombo, Sri Lanka Guardian) No one denies that the LTTE is very much talked by the politicians and the policy makers in the USA. The USA foreign policy has a different approach to the LTTE although the pronounced them a terrorist organization. The USA considers that the LTTE is not a threat to its’ own people like other Islamite organizations.
The fact remains that so long as the people of America are not targeted by the LTTE, the American politicians and the policy makers may change their views about the LTTE. Who cares the Sri Lankans if they are killed by the ruthless LTTE terrorists?. The US State department report states that the LTTE is eliminating the recruitment and use of child soldiers. The report also states the child recruitment of the TMVP (Former LTTE that split from Wanni based LTTE).

The LTTE may be exonerated now by the international Human Rights organizations but there is substantive evidence to prove that the LTTE recruited small children forcibly in thousands from the eastern Province and used them as cannon fodder in their war for separate state. Three are thousands of the young children who were ranked as lieutenant at the age 14 -16 and were deployed at various points of attacks against the Sri Lankan forces. The local government elections will make the people of the East to march forward to consolidate democracy in the East, and give up their folly of pursuing the dreamy goal of Tamil eelam. The faces of the children attached to this page sacrificed their life for a dream of Prabakaran and he can not be exonerated for his crime of recruiting and getting them killed in the name of his dream. America or the US Department may forget and see a different LTTE but the thousands of the Eastern people have plenty of evidence that will speak volumes. Do you ever thing that one of these children are yours?

They all became martyrs about 10 years back. US talking about present not past. This is usual false propaganda. GOSL and TMVP have very recent child solider of their own from east.

Tamil LTTE is always known to have child soldiers. In fact, it is a usual practice to kidnap poor Tamil children, use them as soldiers while children of influential Tamils are unharmed.

LTTE broke away fraction, TMVP joined the government with their fleet of child soldiers.

Ever since this merger, LTTE blood thirsty followers are ignoring their own practices and blames GOSL for use of child soldiers.

TMVP has said they have stayed away of kidnapping children. Government has never recruited children to armed forces.
