Good job - sorry about Clinton
She is an idiot - just ignore her like you are doing (and Norway and Japan and the EU - morons) - we wish you the best - the sooner you finish them off the better for the civilians so now is the time to redouble your efforts. Sorry again about Hillary and the rest of the clowns in the Obama administration. Great job so far - good luck and stay safe. C

No way to Norway
Today ltte is so obedient to UN, EU, America, Norway, India, and England. With due respect to above nations ltte is (vapen villa) or seace fire. NO WAY TO NORWAY! I HAVE STRONG FAITH ON YOU THAT YOU ARE NOT GOING TO TRUST THE VOICE OF ltte and international community at all. At the same time we do not need to see the beauty of Charls, Prabhas beauty. The firs moment we get the oppertunity let them go to the paradise for their unwholsesome bloody deaths last 30 years.

Go Shavendra GO!!! No words to explain our feelings from abroad to our beloved & great Military. Thank you my old friends Gota and Sarath Fonee. I still remember how peaceful and beautiful that stretch of land those days from Puthukuduirippu to Mulaithieu.

Mr.
Dear Valiant forces, do not bow-down to external pressures coming from the west. Complete the final mission annihilating the final lot of terrorists. It has to be quick, if we prolonged this, more pressure will be on Sri Lanka. These western organizations who are speaking of genocide are agents of LTTE. They have double standards. I wish your success.
