Nope-they are predominantly Hindu,with a smattering of Christians as well.But they are mainly a Stalinist organisation with virtually no emphasis on religion-with focus on the idea of Tamil nationalism & the personality cult based on their leader,V.Prabhakaran.

The LTTE have attacked the Lankan muslims who live along the northern coast as they are considered allies of the Sinhalese.

No, I don't believe they are. The Tamils are an ethnic minority group within Sri Lanka and also live in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu.
