You shouldn't be! Terrorism is terrorism is terrorism, no matter who's doing it. If the Tamil Tigers had the chance they kill you with out giving it a second thought.

Learn something.

Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE)
Aliases: Tamil Tigers

Base of Operation: Sri Lanka

Founding Philosophy: Formed in 1976, Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) is an active terrorist group that seeks to create a separate state for Sri Lanka’s ethnic Tamil people. This notional state would be comprised of Sri Lanka's northern and eastern provinces, where the Tamil people make up a majority of the population. In the rest of Sri Lanka, the predominantly Buddhist Sinhalese people are the majority ethnic group.

Responding to an upsurge in Sinhalese nationalism that culminated in the declaration of Buddhism as the main religion in Sri Lanka in 1972, the Tamil United Liberation Front (TULF) political party was created to represent the interests of the Tamil people. During TULF's formative years, a group of young, radical members formed the militant Tamil New Tigers, which became the LTTE in 1976. LTTE has since detached themselves from any association with TULF. In 1984, the Sea Tigers, the naval wing of LTTE, was formed. The Sea Tigers were most recently responsible for the deaths of 19 Sri Lankan Navy personnel who were ambushed in a May 2006 naval engagement.

LTTE physically controls territory in northern and eastern Sri Lanka, mostly in Jaffna District, though boundaries often shift. Through assassinations, bombings, and other terrorist tactics, LTTE targets people who do not support an independent Tamil state. Their victims include policemen, politicians, and even common citizens. After the imposition of martial law on Jaffna District in 1979, LTTE began targeting the Sri Lankan military. The group is concerned with it status as the primary Tamil terrorist organization and considers members of rival Tamil radical groups to be legitimate targets as well.

An LTTE ambush of a military patrol that killed 13 in 1983 is seen as the first battle of the civil war in Sri Lanka, which has yet to be resolved. In 1999, it was estimated that this conflict had already claimed 60,000 lives.

The Tamil tigers totally suck, they are foulness incarnate, atheist Marxist communist retrogrades, wearing che guevara berets and massacring peasants in their spare time. Every single thing they do is vile. See my post #26 or any of the other posts of knowledgeable people here, they all know the deal. The people we need to beat over the head of this are the world islamofascist movement that does not care in the slightest that these innocent Muslims are being killed if the ones doing the killing are Marxists. They only care if Americans or people aligned to the West, like India, are the ones who strike out at them. As for deaths, they don't care at all, and this massacre shows it. All that matters to them is who is doing the killing.
