Some justify and support LTTE’s act. Some hate them. Some feel that the death of V.Prabhakaran is the only way forward.
I strongly feel Velupillai Prabhakaran might have used the worst scenario in the best possible way to bring a resolution between Tamils and Sinhalese in Sri Lanka. With Rajapakshe Government in Srilanka and Congress in India nothing progressive could have happened for LTTE in near future and with his declining army and resources the sensible act “Live today Fight tomorrow” would have been the only option. If he is known to have escaped then some might mistake him for a betrayer or a coward. To put a stop to these claims his son Charles has stepped up and given his life for the Tamils. Probably Charles might have tried surrendered(to buy time) but the always clueless Srilankan army killed him.
Without Prabhakaran it is hard to see LTTE rise again. Virtually LTTE is dead with V.Prabhakaran’s death and hence any good leader would have foreseen this scenario and planned accrodingly. It was not like Srilankan army outthought LTTE. To whatever we have seen in the news channels Srilankan army have always been clueless and hence the probability of Prabharan scripting an escape act is on cards.
Vellupillai Prabhakaran like many would have liked to see what progress can happen if he is (assumed) dead. Many felt if he dead the road to Tamils future will be open.
Many Singhalese who felt that Prabhakaran was the cause for Tamil’s misery would learn the truth now.
Currently, similar to Asif Ali Zardari of Pakistan with Rajapakse of Srilanka I don’t seen any progress. Both hide many things (Mumbai attack investigation vs Prabhakaran Death claims) which are very obvious for many .
A way forward is possible only with new Government in Srilanka. The current term for Rajapakse ends by November 19, 2011. Another two years will be a long wait for V.Prabhakaran. Are we going to see another assasination? or A non-voilent effort? an effort to get LTTE removed from FTO list and join hands with American’s to seek a resolution!!!

Dismissing as “engineered rumours” Sri Lankan government’s assertion that Vellupillai Prabhakaran had been killed in the fighting in the north, the Tamil Tigers have claimed that the LTTE supremo is alive.

Nakkheeran’s Article – a tamil magazine also claims that Prabhakaran is alive and adds that the sources from which it got the confirmation is 1000 times trustable.
