So dear Akkachchi, the LTTE fills a boat with explosives and on being detected they follow orders and blow themselves up, nearly killing a sailor on board, and you say it is a case of genocide by the Sri Lankan Navy!

Writing in all caps is the least of your problems.

AKKACHCHI:

Your worries and my worries are different. My worry is that only 4 sea tigers became maaveerars. So many more to be.

Very Happy Ah, the Tamil Tiger propaganda brigade spin doctors are worse that Bushs spinners or more effective than Murali's doosra. So leemme see Akkachchi.  "An innocent" fishing boat explodes and and SLN sailor almost dies because ?  What did you say?  I cant hear you.  Ah the fishing boat was carrying rotten Prawns and Seer fish right? so there was a gas build up from the rotting fish and the refrigerated compartment was full of Methane right? And when the ruthless cruel genocidal homocidal maniacs in the SLN decided to give chase and commit harakiri, they fired an RPG that hit the methane gas from the rotting fish the Tamil fishermen were taking to sell the Velupillai right?  WOW, you got a lot of insight dude.

Post Why This Rhetoric? 
Guys seem get worked up from reports appearing on LA.
One shoud not believe everything as found on reports. In this case the explosion may have been caused by Navy firing. There may have been explosives in the boat.

But Guys, LTTE have to import arms an ammunition just like GOSL. GOSL gets them through Colombo Port. GOSL does not allow imports for LTTE through Colombo port, do they? So they get them through other means. Many get through, some get caught. These have been going on for decades. There is nothing new here. Furthermore, there have been no major confrontation between SLA and LTTE in the last four years for LTTE to take some from SLA stocks.

There was no agreement between GOSL and LTTE to stop acquiring arms.

If GOSL solves the Tamil problem then both sides can use the money, now spent on arms, on development.
Why are they waiting?

Dude, that is not what happened. Here goes:

"Mahinda called in, after consultation with JVP/JMU/ABC/DVD, to SLN boat and told them to fire a Javalin to this innocent fishingboat. But the inept SLN javalin instead hit a Mermaid that suddenly popped up from a flaming pie in the middle of the sea, and a bit that innocent mermaid's fin hit the fishingboat's captain in the neck, breaking off a good luck charm in the shape of a cyanide capsule. The captain, bending down to pick up the talisman slipped on the wet floor and he fell on a stack of prawns that looked like M240 .40 calibre bullets, due to chemical bombings of the SLN during the two dacade old war that killed over 64000 people.

"One of these prawns flew off and hit the starboard motor and the ricochet prawn turned 180 degrees, in the mid air, mind you, and hit a stack of flat fish that were shaped like anti-personnel mines, again due to contamination from indiscriminate bombings by the airforce during the two decade old war that killed over 64000. Metalic fish guts flew all over, and the a sweet scent of old fish filled the air.

"At this very moment, due to a fateful coincidence, the second mate was lighting a cigarette, and a piece of shrapnel, sorry a fishbone, hit the the lighter which fell off his hand. At this very moment, SLN boat understood that this was an innocent fishing boat not involved in any gun smuggling, was informed by JVP/JMU/ABC/dvd that these innocent fishermen needs to be punished for catching ammunition shaped fish from the sea. Therefore, they fired a bullet that hit the lighter that was falling down to the helm of the boat, spreading liquid gas all over the boat. This caught fire and was flamed by the TRO leaflets lying around as reading material for the journey. These leaftlets show the good work carried out by the non-disappeared members of the TRO, including teenagers, volunteers of course. And the explosion filled the air. All members of the boat were killed.

The dead captain then picked up the radio and called foreign newspapers and described the incident and promised an impromptu press conference when he returned in the next life. The radio message hit a seagull which was attracted by the smell of fish, and the wing fell on a sailor in the SLN boat seriously injuring his left thigh.

Dude, isn't that what really happened?

PS: Sorry, I couldn't help myself  Wink

Post Seperation would be better 
Postings in this web site clearly shows the how far Tamils and Sinhalas hate each other and some Sinhalese try to portray the Sri Lankan army is doing all good to Tamils.  (Of course they lied from their heart)  I think separation would be better for both Tamils and Sinhalese as well as for the country.

SUREN:

These days this is very common with LTTE training directorste. Remember, a month ago 27 died in Mannar because LTTE traning instructors screwed up finally killing the traning instructors, traniees and blowing up the training ground too.

LTTE accused Karuna and EPDP.

This time SEA TIGERS screwed up and blew up the BOAT and THEMSELVES too. NOw, you LTTEers blame SLA. LTTE says that the boat is not theirs'.

Nope. What this forum shows is that how much the LTTE and their supporters are detached from the reality. Your world is breaking apart, friend, so you better step down and work for the best of all Sri Lankans. Sinhalese don't hate tamils - but the huge majority hates the LTTE. Nothing wrong with that.

Post fairy tales 
Twisted Evil  Hey there Wildfire, you got to work for Hans Christian Andersen and Velupillai. Because your explanation most definitely is the most rational logical one I have seen.  I want to see Anton Balasingham explaining this while running up a liberating Eelamist liquor bill for over 3000 dollars in Geneva like he did in Japan.  Or is it Adele Akka who will spin this while tying cyanide capsule on little coloured tamil thangachchis sent surely to their deaths while she and Anton aiya party on all night long like Lionel Ritchie said?

Ok Separation is what Suren wants?  Shall we build a wall and ask the 60% of Tamils to move along old chap? And renounce A FREE education from GOSL, renounce all the money that goes to pay salaries of university staff in Eelam?  and all the money that goes to support Doctors including the ones who fight for Eelam?  Suren or you rather have the cake and eat it too?

I am sure the dude who rights in all CAPS and accuses those genocidal SLN guys for firing RPGS have some rational explanation like Intelligent Design or the Earth is Flat arguments to exlpain the spontaneous combustion of of a Boat loaded with ammunition.  Ah, perhaps Wildfire it was the Big Bang Theory or a comet if it were not the genocidal homicidal maniacs of the SLN? Or was it some big fat Whale farting oops if that is an obscenity shall I say, BREAKING WIND under Anto Aiyas boat?

Dude, it wasn't ammunition, just fish shaped like ammunition. Don't you know that the good LTTE wouldn't do a thing to jeapodize the ceasefire??

Again, couldn't help myself.

Injured sailor succumbed to his injuries at Anuradhapura hospital.  

Under CFA no sea movement can happen unless prior authorisation given by GOSL.  This incident adds to other recent serious violations such as interception of a vessel with 61,000 detonators, blowing up of the dvora and attacking navy boats off mannar coast.

According to SLMM spokeswoman Helen Olafsdottir, LTTE initially indicated they were involved in an incident at sea but later retracted the statement.
