May 18, Colombo: The LTTE leader Velupillai Prabhakaran was shot dead on Monday while trying to flee in an ambulance, news reports said.
The long standing Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam leader and the group seem to be on the brink of “extinction” after its leader Velupillai Prabhakaran was shot dead.I saw the news appearing on twitter via the Nutgraph and went over to the Sri Lankan news sites which confirmed of his death.
They seem very happy of this news with event a column on the online news site saying :
LankaPage congratulates President Mahinda Rajapaksa and the Sri Lankan Security Forces for defeating terrorism. We honor the sacrifice of all Security Force Members who have lost their lives for this cause.
It must be good news for the majority of Sri Lanka but i have a question. If going out to kill a “terrorist” is the answer what does that make the killer?
