Now you know Veluppillai Prabhakaran and his LTTE, who held sway in the modern Srilanka are the products of certain unfortunate sociopolitical conditions which every sensible state should fight to avoid their germination . If we do not learn from history, the history teaches us in a cruel way. This is the story of the enchanting South Asian Island Srilanka; Of the intelligent, enterprising, and proud Tamils of the Island; Of their sociopolitical equation with the Sinhalese partners; Of the formidable LTTE; and of their fearsome, leader Prabhakaran who was also fearful for his life all the time. This book also tells the inside stories of LTTE’s birth, growth and death. Their violence, assassinations, and why and how they killed Padmanabha, Rajiv Gandhi, Amirthalingam, Premadasa and Mahataya among many others. The tale of their fund raising; their affluence; their Air Tigers; their Sea Tigers; their Black Tigers and their ultimate downfall. Not the fall of the LTTE but of Srilankan Tamils’ hopes. This is also the story of brave fighters and unscrupulous leaders. Story of heroism and treachery. History of mankind would not forgive us if we allow this to happen again, in any form, anywhere in earth.
