Prabhakaran is currently wanted by Interpol for terrorism, murder, organized crime and terrorism conspiracy.[2] He also has arrest warrents against him in Sri Lanka and India. After evading capture for 25 years, the Sri Lankan government announced in May 2009 that Prabhakaran and several other senior Tamil Tiger leaders were trapped in a small stretch of land on the Mullaithivu coast. On May 17, 2009, Sri Lanka's government announced that Prabhakaran is dead.[3].

i have seen heard my friends family's were killed in terrorist attacks so many times you should have seen, you should have been, why a separate place for Tamils why can't we all live together sharing things,it's true their are some people who differentiate Tamils & Sinhalese but not all of them so we nee to build our future we need to change it ....

The history is bitter and it will teach many a lesson to Sri Lanka in particular. You people have learnt a very hard lesson losing your loved ones, friends,family and leaders. Everyone wishes your president takes a right step forward in providing aid to the people who are all in neeed. Or else, history will pay a tribute to your land again.. someone will rise again...... Try to be humans and let alone the barbaric acts now that everything is over. Tamils treat every1 equally and fairly. Don't get yourself on the wrong side of the heart of the gud ppl....

Stop blaming tamils, it is only in your country tamils fight and nowhere else anywhere in the world. There should be a reason for every fight. people are not dumb enough to wage a war against a "HUGE" government for 30 odd years. Plan for the future and act accordingly.... May peace prevail in lanka.

To India sights at lanka,

What about india. We know lot of things about Indian history and culture. All the things you said is much suits for india. India is the no. 1 in SEX DISCRIMINATION (Muslim countries at least respect women by not sexually abusing them). So try to be humans and let alone the barbaric acts to your mothers and sisters. We Sri Lankans only punish terrorists and not to innocent women. You people should learn lessons from Sri Lanka. Don’t be shy to accept that.
Anyway thank you for your wish. Let’s hope entire world free from terror.
The reasons for Tamils to fight only in Sri Lanka,
1. Sri Lanka was militarily weak when the war started and didn’t have a well structured army.
2. British creates the conflict intentionally by using different tactics (they even brings Indian Tamils to Sri Lanka who still lives in the central province)
3. A Bad friend (india, yes that is true)

I Yawn profousely at what you say (not verified)

at 04:43 on May 20th, 2009

I did not want to reply anything but you made me do it. Did i mention about abuse or anything ? why are you so taken aback when i mentioned about your government and army's actions. So, you sure know what is happening. Never mind, I really pity the circumstance in which you are living now , blabbering various reasons for the war. I have never been in a war zone and it will be unjust to comment about the reasons what you wrote. But i respect it...

It does not mean that Sri Lanka can take their own stand on deciding about tamils anymore. Not anymore. Everyone is watching. You may call India a bad friend or whatever, but it is a fact that India helped you survive this far and taste a blood bath victory at the end. Remember that only happened because, we lost our Prime Minister at the hands of LTTE. If that did not happen, nevermind again, whats done is done. The Lankan army of this period will be deeply hated for a very long time for the atrocities done to the civilians in order to capture a very small group of so called terrorists. It still depicts your incapability of being a military outfit and you dare comment about India on that. You never won it alone all throughout. LTTE were better for 30 years.... history is bitter for the sri lankans. forget the past and have a vision for the future.

You are just a LTTE supporter (not verified)

at 11:45 on May 20th, 2009

For some reason you try to present yourself as a neutral. I feel sorry for you. You have no courage to say directly you are a LTTE supporter (I can understand by looking at the images on this page). First, I reply to your message because I thought you are a neutral Indian. Actually, you don’t even care about your own country india. You are talking about a blood bath, which is the TamilNet’s definition for ‘War on Terror’. Moreover, what you mean by a small terrorist group? LTTE is the biggest terrorist group (yes, we kill them all). You may be talking about the group that attacked in Delhi.
Now it is no meaning arguing with you. However, one last word, go and take care about your country. We won’t need advice from you.

LTTE supporter or not, doesnt matter (not verified)

at 15:02 on May 20th, 2009

It really doesn't matter now that everything is over. your government can take advise even from a 5 yr old kid at the moment. It is that sick, horrific and maddened with wiping out civilians. I do not have to take care of India, we have leaders who will put India in the right path. We get them elected by giving all of the people a chance to vote at least. Wherein, you know what your country has done in the past. you sure need advice from me and whoever tells your government. Don't be ashamed to accept the facts.. LTTE is in no way a large terror group compared to any other. you people are so weak and empty headed fools who cannot plan a strategy to take them out for 30 long years with all those things they have done. courage my ass, ye my ass. I do not support LTTE, i just say you( sri lanka govt) are really a weak government who managed a victory amidst a blood bath. so, wash away those stints and take care of the people in the right way and lead a peaceful life. stupid fcking moreon grow up and understand what i try to convey...... ffs, i am out of this topic for gud...

It does matter. (not verified)

at 15:51 on May 20th, 2009

Your government couldn’t handle the very small terror attack which happened in delhi. I also heard about few times terrorist attacked your parliament you stupid. Indira Gandhi was assassinated because of her strategy of discriminating people on race. Her son was blasted after trying to give his strategy to Sri Lanka. How smart your leaders then. Ha! Ha! Ha! What happening in Kashmir time-to-time. India is fucked by Pakistan. What is your strategy there? Your government cannot take advice even from a donkey because they are stupid.
So stop advising here you bastard. Go get a life cunt. We are smarter and superior than you. India is the real dirty place in the world. I have no time to waist here. You are so dirty bastards.

I am a singhalese citizen living in london. I ahve many friends of Tamil ethnicity. What the SLA has done is total genocide. I do not agree with the LTTE leader but I do agree that Tamils have been marginalised and made a mockery of.

For those of you that are eductaed, or can think for themselves ask yourself;

1)Why are no journalists allowed in? A) the governemnt are hiding the truth

2)Why are aid agencies also band@ A) so the civilians can die from hunger and again hide the truth

3)Why do people go 'missing'? A) put fear into the tamil community

4) rape women? A) SLA are deprived men who cannot do well with the other gender so resort to humiliating rape.

5)Why did the tsunami money not reach the north? A? they kept it for themselves - invested in Colombo and their own property.

It is a real tragedy that media is banned in Sri Lanka and that our fellow singhalese people abroad believe all the propaganda from out government back home. For all fo you that are educated as stated, go ask any Tamil person and see how many family members they have lost to the SLA through kidnaps, beatings and a simple but effective bullet to the head.

Seems to me there is a difference in the images of the dead body. but I think it is because of the swelling from the heat. Many seem to want it to be false, but it looks like the man is very dead and decomposing.

See the difference in these videos, an early one, and later one.

Prabakaran died not for a cause, but of his shortsightedness. He must not have killed so many Tamil leaders and other civilians that too in religious places. He should have grabbed the first opportunity to leave the militant outfit and return to democratic movement. This would have saved him and the people who took to arms. It is very unfortunate that he died while fleeing - It was based on this calculation that he will flee and not fight, an offencive was launched and he proved them right. He calling for ceasefire when the military was firing 24 hours 7 days a week; was the best ever joke one could have ever heard.

P.S.
