Sunday Column – Tigers go back to basics – Chilawatte is only the beginning

Coming to terms with failure

The LTTE’s military panel has finally come to terms with the fact that their conventional tactics have so far failed. The LTTE had tried to thwart the SLA’s advance by building L – shaped bunds and moats, these ineffective tactics were last used in WW1 and medieval times. The LTTE now being advised by unnamed military strategists have gone back to fighting the SLA with asymmetrical warfare (unconventional tactics). The LTTE’s previous successes against the SLA were down to asymmetrical warfare. Guerilla tactics is one of the main constituents of asymmetrical warfare, the other main constituents are small team operations, long range reconnaissance missions, ambushing enemy officers in lightning strikes, and defense in depth. These were successfully employed by the LTTE in Ceaseless Waves I to IV. The Tigers have begun to use these tactics in Chilawatte and have reaped the rewards. Although the LTTE is expected to vacate this area, they are set to continue harvesting SLA men by using the tactics recommended by the said military experts. The LTTE will use the same strategies in Challai which the SLA is trying to capture.

Mechanised Brigade

Wanni sources inform us that the Liberation Tigers have deployed the Mechanised Infantry Brigade in the Chilawatte and Challai fronts. The Mech. Brigade is made up of an undisclosed number of MBTs, Unicorn APCs, modified tractors and HMG mounted four wheel drives. The Brigade is led by an experienced commander and the cadres are specially trained in mechanised warfare. The Brigade has provided effective support during offensive and defensive operations. Logistical support is provided by the LTTE Armoured Mechanised Engineering (LAME) corps.

More defections

EFT earlier reported on leadership conflicts within LTTE’s high command. Our Wanni sources indicate that at least three Colonels from the LTTE’s ranks have defected to the GoSL side. However, the Supreme Commander’s loyalists are of the opinion that these defections will help strengthen the LTTE than weaken it. The Colonels who have defected have of late become more interested in providing a good life for their families and less interested in selflessly fighting for Tamil Eelam’s cause. Our sources further added that the main reason behind the recent losses has been the lack of motivation and dedication displayed by these Colonels. The loyalists are glad to have got rid of these traitors and are regretting the decisions that put these Colonels in charge of defending key towns, villages and grounds of strategic importance. The fate of the one time second in command of the LTTE is unknown, pro and anti GoSL sources are refusing to divulge any further information on this matter.

India's involvement

The visiting Indian Foreign Secretary, Shivshankar Menon is leaving the Island a happy man having fully accomplished his mission. The Foreign Secretary is said to have issued two requests to the GoSL President - Mahendra Percival Rajapakse. Unconfirmed reports say that President Percy has accepted both these requests. The Congress led Indian Government is increasingly getting involved in GoSL affairs to keep its Tamil Nadu voter base happy.

Civilians abandon Tamil Eelam

Meanwhile, EFT sources inform that civilians are fleeing Tiger controlled areas in large numbers to GoSL controlled areas. The civilians are said to be unhappy to be leaving behind their beloved Tamil Eelam homeland, their homes and personal possessions. The civilians have been made refugees in their own land and are residing in temporary shelters.

Opinion Poll

EFT is pleased to announce the creation of a poll. The objective of the poll is to invite opinion from fellow bloggers on the future of our liberation struggle. EFT would like to invite opinions from our readers. The poll will be published tomorrow. The results of the poll will be complied and presented two weeks from tomorrow.

Mahen,

you need to see your GP ASAp, coz estate agents are under huge pressure due to lack of business, so I dont blame you having dreams, illusions, etc...any way good luck.. I would like to remind you that you are loosing your credibility...(look how may ppl are reading your blog now??)

No_MESS said...

Mahen,
Congratulations mate, you made it!

I’ve just seen the agenda for tomorrow’s Cabinet meeting. The section which will be of interest you is
The disposal of LTTE assets (DOLA) Section 3.1 If captured alive:

Velupillai Prabhakaran will be auctioned off on the www within 7 days of capture. We propose the website address to be: http://ellalanforce.blogspot.com/
….. and the designated bank in charge of this auction to be the UK based Ponambalam & Ratnadurai, which has a long history of dealing with LTTE finances.
---------------------
And the agenda goes on with the details of the auction, which is unique. The bidders (public, institutions or countries) could bid for individual body parts, except the brain, which will be divided into one million equal parts and sold to the Diaspora at $1000 each. I suppose the idea is so that, they can all have a part of the Ezam dream on their mantelpiece. For obvious reasons, SL based parties cannot bid on this auction. All proceeds from this event (estimated $ 3 billion) will be donated to Api Wenuwen Api Housing Project.

I’ve being told MR/GR/SF are all happy with this, and it would be made official tomorrow. So you better start upgrading your servers ASAP to accommodate what would be an unprecedented level of traffic, and remember the way things are going, it could be as early as the 26th of January!

BTW, Now that you are working for the Government of SRI Lanka, please get rid of that ridiculous photo from your blog. The man standing on the left looks like he’s playing the guitar. And the one on the right looks like he’s playing the accordion. And in case they are really playing those instruments, the man in the middle should be singing, not fishing.

Mahen,
Good Afternoon! Hope you are well!

"...at least three Colonels from the LTTE’s ranks have defected to the GoSL side.." Can you pl names them using your sources?

And when you expect next tactical withdrawl?

YEY...mahen...good piece... but it wud have been nicer if you had copy pasted a part of that " sl is going to go bankrupt" rant of navindrans... then it wud have been a more overall, more intriguing read....

"LAME corps".

ha ha ha!

Mahen,

The following pathetic press release from the UN caught my attention.
UN calls on the LTTE to dismantle human shield

It is a joke that, "The UN calls upon the LTTE to allow civilians to be able to move freely to areas where they feel most secure....". How the hell the UN think they can dictate terms to our supreme leader?

Why do the UN mischievously lie that "While they have had access to basic food, in large part due to the Government and the UN assistance..."? Hello.....? The food provided by the Government and UN were substandard, that was why LTTE never gave those food bags to the people, but used for building bunkers. The Tamil people have no shortage of food due to the long vision and planning of EAT. The supreme leader has always instructed that the Tamil Eelam citizens are the top priority. That is why elite sea tiger commando units have been piercing through the SL Navy blockade and harvesting fresh fish behind enemy lines almost every night, to maintain healthy protein levels in Tamil Eelam.

I thought you earlier insisted that there were no failures and only "tactical withdrawals"

tharu22 said...

[The Tigers have begun to use these tactics in Chilawatte and have reaped the rewards. Although the LTTE is expected to vacate this area, ...]

If they're so successful why are they expected to vacate?
Mmm..maybe they'll just go capture Maavil Aru & Nachchikuda & come back..lol

tharu22 said...

[The Colonels who have defected have of late become more interested in providing a good life for their families and less interested in selflessly fighting for Tamil Eelam’s cause.]

Just like the diaspora jokers (such as Mahen, Navindran, Peter, Upul, AK etc)

No need for a poll. The future of Peelam is clear: DEAD AND GONE!

Hey two weeks time from tmrw, it will be all over mate..!!!

lol

Raptor said...

So all the recent losses from Mavil Aru right upto now were due only to 3 colonels? Damn they must be very important then!

Sujeewa Kokawala said...

K. Bala;

I think Obama will soon remove Ban Ki Moon for being a lunatic to believe that ppl are being held by pussycats.

Why don't you go ahead and complain against UN statement. Public stay with pussycats willingly and hand over their nasty school-going children to them to be used as cannon fodder, and stay in hunger despite the prosperity of EAT just as a solidarity gesture as shown by Thirumavalan.

Nevertheless, pls do not trouble Mahen with these. He is only writing about pussycats. EFT has no relationship or contact with UN.

PS: it is ironic that the agrarian future of Eealm is handed over to EAT.

I feel sorry for the tamil people their own kind is bringing genocide over them...

ATTN: all tamil people on this blog
If you truly care about your people/race, you need to focus on getting those trapped civilians out of the war zone...

I've visited ceylon a few times and i know that the people in the south live together regardless of the race... there may be issues but they need to be addressed in a democratic manner. You have a god given beautiful country try not to destroy it with all this violence.

Jayalalithaa right on LTTE: Swamy
Jan 19 (Hindu) Janata Party president Subramanian Swamy on Sunday said AIADMK general secretary Jayalalithaa was “perfectly right in pointing out that it is the LTTE that is an obstacle to the Tamils of Sri Lanka getting their due political and human rights.” In a statement, he said: “She had correctly said [at a press meet in Chennai on Saturday] that the LTTE was using the Tamil civilian population as hostage and shield against the advancing Sri Lanka army.
