Highlights of his writings, if you don't want to read the whole thing:
1) Life of Tamils are much better in SL now.
2) Socio-economic and political questions can never be resolved by war.
3) Moderate Tamils now say "enough of war"; the armed conflict must end; a solution must be found through negotiations.
4) vast majority of Tamils, whether they presently live in Sri Lanka or abroad, would prefer to live under Mr. Prabhakarn's rule, rather than in a free, democratic, united Sri Lanka where the rights of minorities are adequately safeguarded.
5) The vast majority of Tamils, wherever they may live, are law-abiding, hard working, peaceful people. They do not condone terrorism, especially the child conscriptions, abduction, killings, extortions that are still being carried out by the LTTE in the North and East, accompanied by the suppression of peaceful dissent.
6) Vast majority of Tamils" would prefer to see, for the future, a united Sri Lanka, rather than two separate States.
7) Thousands of Tamils live and work in the South peacefully and comfortably with the Sinhala majority.
8) In the 1980's India did extend support to the fledgling LTTE by arming, training and financing them resulting in incalculable loss to Sri Lanka.
9) President should, on behalf of the State, apologise to the Tamil people who have over the years been subjected to racial violence. Will the LTTE apologise to the people of Sri Lanka - all communities including the Tamils, for the immense damage it has done to thousands upon thousands of innocent men, women and children ?
Don't blame me, I am just a messenger. However I must say that his views are much different from Tamil extreemists on this forum. They falsely claim that over 90% Tamils support LTTE (NOT!).
