LITTE is a CHRISTIAN ORGANISATION.
PRABHAKARAN IS VERY MUCH CHRISTIAN.
Prabhakaran the cheif of LITTE Is a Christian who plans attacks.Prabhakaran's son is Charles Anthony !!
Anton Balasingham, theoretician and main spokesman of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam, is a christian.
Christians keep the old Hindu names and castes names even after conversion. It is interesting that when Christians do questionable things they call even converted Tribals or castes or groups as Hindu!!.
LITTE is Tamil but not run by Hindus. not all Tamils are Hindus.
Why do you think it has contacts with other Christian Terrorist organisations of North east India.
Killers of of Rajiv Gandhi were christian .
Here read this Sri Lankan article written by a Buddhist.:
".............While the Christian Administration and the world press are quick to pounce on the Buddhists for all the wrong reasons the same is not true for all the crimes committed by the CHRISTIAN LTTE in Sri Lanka.
All press reports on the atrocities committed by the Tamil insurgency led by the Christian LTTE are justified and legitimized in two simple sentences which always read as follows:
“The Tiger insurgency was launched in 1983 on behalf of minority Hindu Tamils, who allege discrimination at the hands of the mostly Buddhist Sinhalese majority. The war has left 65,000 people dead.”
The Hindus and Buddhists are now slowly coming to the inevitable conclusion that they are staring at each other for all the wrong reasons in the world. Buddhists and Hindus lived side by side for hundreds of years visiting each others temples and kovils till the Christian powers and the Christian Church came to Sri Lanka!..........."
In north east they are doing the same in the name of NAGA ethenic tribal.
".........Kunduthasan (Fat-thasan) was we found the same Jesuthasan Croos arrested in the Mannar bazaar referred to above. Jesuthasan was a brother of Hakkim, who died a member of the LTTE, making his family a hero’s family."
"..... Human Rights would seem an abstraction where life is ceasing to be human. One sees the same indifference on the part of the LTTE to families, wives and children, no concern about how they live or die. Many young couples with young families suddenly find themselves devoid of the breadwinner. These young men who had started families and had young mouths to feed had been forcibly taken away by the LTTE for 1 to 3 years of military service, promising a monthly allowance for the upkeep of the families. The money comes for about 3 months and ceases. A number of these young men were LTTE cadres who left during the ceasefire and got married.
An official connected with a church establishment expressed alarm that several of these abandoned families ".
"........They discovered that the LTTE had forcibly taken them into the interior jungle for military training, saying it was for ten days. But the men had not returned for more than two weeks. One of those who escaped was forcibly taken back by the LTTE."
"...If a person left Mutur, the LTTE would abduct other members of the family, hold them hostage and send messages for the person to come back. Once a young person was on their list, the LTTE would go on making inquiries tracing the person. .........".
Hindu or christian LITTE does not have mass support and forces innocents to join its ranks.
It did killed even Christians who refused to join.
"....Staying and killed with their sons upstairs was a business partner Navaratnam Ganesh whose daughter was married to a LTTE man in the Vanni. The Sellathurai family were Pentecostal Christians, who have a number of times got into trouble with the LTTE for their opposition to violence and its agents.."
"...Our investigations show that Moorthy Martin had been approached by the LTTE several times to plant a claymore mine on the Vankalia road to destroy an Army convoy…Despite the threats, he had refused to comply with the LTTE. He was later approached by an explosives expert of the LTTE identified as Kundudasan. But he had tipped off the army about Kundudasan’s whereabouts. Kundudasan’s body was later found on the Mannar coast…”
LITTE gets its way by threats not because Hindu suipport it and even christians who say no to it are found dead.
Terrorists are just terrorists.The LTTE engaged in brutal acts of torture and assassination in its struggle for hegemony within the Tamil community.
"Norway has virtually ignored the LTTE’s political killings and its scandalous conscription of children. The Norwegian government even facilitated LTTE efforts to strengthen its worldwide propaganda network (and thus its control over Tamil populations) by for example, helping them to acquire transmitting equipment. Norway has facilitated travel abroad for so-called LTTE fact-finding missions, including coaxing European representatives to meet them. Norwegian lobbying of the international community has encouraged tacit support for the LTTE’s methods, and diluted or obstructed many initiatives aimed at holding it to account. "
Why Norwey a Christian country supporting LITTE ?

By the way Tamils are natives of Srilanka so its their land too. Conflict in Srilanka is too complicated to give such generalising comments as yours.

This conflict is a little deeper than that.
The LTTE - Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam - are a Tamil people (speak Tamil, practice Hinduism) who claim ancestral ownership to the northern and eastern parts of the island of Sri Lanka. The remainder of the island is predominantly Sinhalese (speak Sinhala, practice Buddhism).
Who was there first is a question for the anthropologists and archaeologists to decipher. However, at some point the majority Sinhalese grew less tolerant of the presence of the minority Tamils and outlawed their language and culture. Whether this was done in response to Tamil-initiated violence, or as a ploy for the majority Sinhalese to keep the minority Tamil disenfranchised is up for debate.
Violence begat violence. Sinhalese military units were reported to have burned villages and murdered thousands of innocent Tamil civilians. Tamil Tigers (among other groups) claim that they have bombed and assaulted only military targets of the Sinhalese, and civilian deaths are only "collateral damage".
It must be remarked that for a 20-year-period, the Sinhalese government made some suspicious rules under military law: autopsies could be forbidden (amnesty international speculates that this is to prevent confirmation of summary executions - where the government would execute someone without legal basis), foreign press were expelled, and all news services came under government control. These are interesting actions and are dangerous to a democratic society.
Kevin Sites is reporting on this conflict currently, and there is much on Wikipedia on the historical conflict.

there have been many conspiracy theories going round in regards to the the identity of the perpetrators of the attack and their reason. one element that strikes me as hassle-free is with all that weaponry, rocket launchers, rpgs, grenades etc. recovered, is that the completed cricket team WASN'T annihilated. I propose if their objective became certainly to kill them then why did not they. became the rocket that ignored the bus undesirable objective...or truly good objective? In different words, what if the point of the Terrorists WASN'T to kill off the team, yet particularly to take them hostage? They easily regarded prepared for a lengthy standoff, what with the dry rations and water that they had with them, that would have sustained them for days. does no longer imagine you needed all that food for an common hit and run... reason? perchance i'm giving too a lot credit to the LTTE, (if certainly they were behind it) yet when their hand became in this attack, (both instantly or financially) today with their proverbial backs antagonistic to the wall, perchance this would were a bargaining chip to rigidity the Sri Lankan authorities to halt the protection rigidity advance & call ceasefire. A ceasefire the LTTE has been unsuccessfully lobbying for via Tamil Nadu politicians, NGO's and direct appeals to the UN. perchance this became their very last danger at getting a lifeline ceasefire, that they have got executed many cases contained in the previous at the same time as on the verge of protection rigidity defeat. If it became close by terrorists that executed the attack perchance their purpose became in simple terms to destabilize the area...yet that purpose would were more effective positive served in the journey that that they had eliminated their objective. i don't believe of the actual undeniable actuality that the completed team got here by the incident with no fatalty would properly be attributed to any mercy or certainly any incompetence on the component of the terrorists. Whoever became behind it, finally terrorism begets terrorism. the human beings who arm the Taliban have probable had a hand in arming the LTTE. inspite of would divide this area ideologically, Cricket is a few thing that unites us. that is been attacked. This international probability of terrorism should be expunged from the international.

The Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE), also known as the Tamil Tigers, is a military and political organisation that promotes independence for the Tamil people of Sri Lanka. Headed by its reclusive founder, Velupillai Prabakharan, it currently controls sizeable portions of northern and eastern Sri Lanka, where it runs civil authorities including judicial, police, financial, and cultural services. The LTTE operates an army, a navy and a recently created air wing. Accusing the Sri Lankan government of orchestrating ethnic cleansing and genocide against its Tamil minority, the LTTE proclaims itself as the sole representative and protector of Sri Lankan Tamils, and is generally seen as being the main body with whom the government must negotiate in the long-running conflict. However, the tactics of the LTTE, notably its treatment of non-Tamil civilians and Tamil political opponents, have drawn sharp criticism internationally and led to it being proscribed as a terrorist organisation by a number of countries with large Tamil expatriate populations.
The LTTE as an organization is centred around the personality of Prabhakaran, who has led it almost continuously since it was formed. Tigers owe a strong personal loyalty and obedience to him as their leader, which has helped instill a strong sense of discipline in the organisation, and keep it operationally efficient. Recruits are instructed to be prepared to die for the cause, and are issued with a cyanide capsule to be swallowed in the case of capture.[1] The LTTE also has a special squad of suicide troops, called the Black Tigers, which it deploys for critical missions. [2]
The LTTE advocates equality for women, and has a large number of female recruits. The Women's Wing of the LTTE is known as Suthanthirap Paravaikal (or Freedom Birds). The first woman combatant to die was 2nd Lt. Malathi, on 10 October 1987, in an encounter with the IPKF at Kopai in Jaffna peninsula.
