History Note: Tamil Tiger (LTTE) organization started on this day (May 5, 1976) 44 years ago. In 1976, Eelam Tamils democratically decided to reclaim their sovereignty after went through Sri Lanka's genocide and several rounds of pogroms. By that Time, Tamil political leaders didn't have any idea of how to reclaim it but they called the Tamil youth to take arms to protect Tamils, fight against Sri Lanka's genocide and form State Tamil Eelam.
There were several Tamil armed groups formed, and India helped many of these armed groups. In these Tamil freedom fighters, Tamil Tigers (LTTE) were the most disciplined and with laser focused. During early 80s, there were only less than fifty members in Tamil Tigers. While all other Tamil armed groups followed either India's instructions or other world examples, Tamil Tigers stayed with their unique values.
Tamil Tigers took all their values from Tamil history. Their flag Tiger came from Chola era. While other Tamil armed groups called their members each other comrades, Tamil Tigers called brother, sister using family relationship. Their core values were clear vision, brave, sacrifice and will to fight to end. Later part of 80s, there were around less than thousand fighters in LTTE but Tamil Tigers already established their organization with a government structure. Even from the start, Tamil Tigers felt themselves like a government of Tamil Eelam. They started each of government attributes such as Police, Military, Naval force, infrastructure, preserving the nature, health, etc.
India wanted to use all the Tamil armed groups as paramilitary, but Tamil Tigers refused to toe their line and stayed only loyal to Tamil People. While all other Tamil armed groups became paramilitary of India or Sri Lanka, only Tamil Tigers (LTTE) (Another one armed group EROS joined LTTE) stayed as Tamil freedom fighters. Only Tamil freedom fighters were the one kept fight against Sri Lanka's genocide in early 90s.
Tamil Tigers built the Tamil Eelam government with almost 30 government structures such as judiciary, air force, health departments (hospitals), financial institutions (bank), tax departments, etc. All these they did while fight against a ruthless and criminal regime Sri Lanka.
In 2002, they entered into peace talks with Norway's facilitation when they already established Tamil Eelam as sovereign country. They put forward ISGA proposal in 2004 as interim solution. They were appreciated for managing Tsunami much better than any other South Asian country by the USA. Tamil Tigers were decimated in May 2009 because they were ONLY loyal to Tamil people, and they didn't toe to agenda of any foreign nations. Tamil Eelam was destroyed in May 2009 and even UN knew war crimes and genocide. Tamils still keep the history of Sangam era which is two thousands years old, Chola era which is thousands years old. Tamils will be proud of Tamil Eelam period or Tamil Tiger period for the future..
