This episode of The Story of Sri Lanka examines the rise and ideology of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE), the most formidable insurgent group in modern South Asia. We trace the group's emergence from the 1970s Tamil youth militancy, the 1976 Vaddukoddai Resolution that formally demanded a separate Tamil state, and the charismatic leadership of Velupillai Prabhakaran. The conversation explores the LTTE's distinctive military tactics—suicide bombings, a sophisticated naval wing, and an aerial capability—and its brutal internal enforcement, including the use of cyanide capsules and the purge of rival Tamil groups. We also address the 1983 Black July pogrom that radicalized a generation, the Indian Peace Keeping Force intervention from 1987 to 1990, and the controversial role of child soldiers. Lucas and Luna discuss how the LTTE built a de facto state in the north and east, with its own police, courts, and even a bank, while fighting a 26-year war that ended only in 2009 with the death of Prabhakaran. Along the way, they consider the human cost—both Tamil and Sinhalese—and the unresolved grievances that persist in post-war Sri Lanka. #LTTE #Prabhakaran #TamilEelam #BlackJuly1983 #SriLankaCivilWar #VaddukoddaiResolution #SuicideBombing #SeaTigers #IPKF #ChildSoldiers #EelamWar #TamilTigers #VelupillaiPrabhakaran #MahindaRajapaksa #BattleForJaffna #SouthAsia #History #FexingoHistory Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
