I kind of beg to differ with you with regard to the LTTE leadership, because a lot of the LTTE leadership wasn't actually in Sri Lanka. They were in North America raising funds and creating all sorts of issues here.

There is actually a YouTube video floating around at the moment of a Canadian LTTE person declaring war on Canada. There are three LTTE people in jail in the U.S. for trying to acquire a million dollars' worth of weapons.

So I'm not confident that all the LTTE leadership was actually destroyed or whatever in the conflict. Have you any thoughts on that?
