    Default The Original reason behind the war in mother Lanka

    There have been lots of speculations behind the war in mother Lanka, two of them are very common, which came from involved communities.
    1. LTTE - The terrorist group -Regarded as SL Government & Most of the Sinhalese, Tamils & Muslims
    2. Abandoned rights of Tamils or minorities -Regarded as LTTE, Some of the Sinhalese, Tamils & Muslims

    It had been a question in my mind whether those are the real reasons or something else.
    I recently gone through a site called http://www.worldpress.org. In which I found the initial reason behind our hectic war. I just wanted to give it up you guys and hope you guys come with a solution for my thought. Thanks

    Here the parts in that article about Lanka
    Sri Lanka
    Post-independence Sri Lanka, despite having a multi-sectoral population, was a peaceful country until 1971 and was following an independent foreign policy. During the 1971 Indo-Pakistan war, despite heavy pressure from India, Sri Lanka allowed Pakistan's civil and military aircraft and ships to stage through its air and seaports with unhindered refueling facilities. It had also permitted Israel to establish a nominal intelligence presence and permitted the installation of a high-powered transmitter by Voice of America, which was resented by India.
    It was because of these "irritants" that Indira Gandhi planned to bring Sri Lanka into the fold of the so-called Indira Doctrine (India Doctrine). Kao was told by Gandhi to repeat their Bangladesh success. R.A.W. went looking for militants it could train to destabilize the regime. Camps were set up in Tamil Nadu and old R.A.W. guerrilla trainers were dug out of retirement. R.A.W. began arming the Tamil Tigers and training them at centers such as Gunda and Gorakhpur. As a sequel to this ploy, Sri Lanka was forced into the Indian power web when the Indo-Sri Lanka Accord of 1987 was singed and the Indian Peacekeeping Force landed in Sri Lanka.
    The Ministry of External Affairs was upset at R.A.W.'s role in Sri Lanka as they felt that R.A.W. was continuing negotiations with Tamil Tiger leader Parabhakaran in contravention to the Indian government's foreign policy. According to R. Swaminathan, (former special secretary of R.A.W.) it was this outfit that was used as the intermediary between Rajib Gandhi and Tamil leader Parabhakaran. Former Indian high commissioner in Sri Lanka J. N. Dixit even accused R.A.W. of having given 10 million rupees to the L.T.T.E. (Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam). At a later stage, R.A.W. built up the E.P.R.L.F. (Eelam People's Revolutionary Liberation Front) and E.N.D.L.F. (Eelam National Democratic Liberation Front) to fight against the L.T.T.E., which made the situation in Sri Lanka highly volatile and uncertain later on.

    yeah that is the real reason!!!!

    The LTTE was always just a tool!

    And what do all of the protagonists in the conflict want?

    To try and end the conflict!

    How fkn sick is that?

    Only India decides how long this conflict drags on for, while we are at each other's throats the fkn indians are developing their economy without any regional competition!

    Sri Lanka had ALL of the indicators to surpass India even back in the day! In fact, it still possess that potential!
