Untitled[edit]

Why no mention of the EPDP's large armed division? They practically control Kayts island.

WSWS[edit]

WSWS is realiable source. Further, it is there just to back up the claims that others have made. If you have anything against the use of WSWS, then talk WT:SLR. This was an agreement of you being unblocked. Watchdogb 13:28, 4 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have read that and still I remember all nine points in the agreement. But it seems others have to read that again because yesterday someone lost his mind on the 6th point. --♪♫ ĽąĦĩŘǔ ♫♪ ^{walkie-talkie | tool box} 13:39, 4 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Really ? It is fair that you must remember more than others for obvious reasons Watchdogb 15:22, 4 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It will be fair if everyone knows all the truth, Sathya Jayam. --♪♫ ĽąĦĩŘǔ ♫♪ ^{walkie-talkie | tool box} 15:29, 4 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Of course, that is the whole point, Lahiru. Watchdogb 15:30, 4 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I'm glad you are convinced about it. --♪♫ ĽąĦĩŘǔ ♫♪ ^{walkie-talkie | tool box} 15:39, 4 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

He does not deserve a praise.[edit]

The article appears of praising him. In fact, he is acting as much as he could as embracing democracy while the reality is he is a perfect example where a person could commit the worst against their own race. Armed killings, abductions and recent assasination of MPs are all coordinated by him.

Why the article cannot mentioned concerns (not necessarily negatively biased)???

Against Facts[edit]

"he gave up violence and is currently the leader". He's a leader of an armed groub. !! Amnesty I. and other accuse them of Rape, Murder,..... in the Jaffna Peninsula. You need links with information?

please follow the wikipedia rules! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.167.64.61 (talk) 17:13, 31 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
