Zlin downing further confirmed
http://defencewire.blogspot.com/2008/09/zlin-downing-further-confirmed.html
"http://http://defencewire.blogspot.com/2008/09/zlin-downing-further-confirmed.html">
Defense Wire is a website operated by the Sri Lanka Navy Intelligence Unit:
Published Official Lies and for propaganda purposes.
Intelligence units have uncovered the general area of the crash-site of the TAF plane. The site is situated inside dense jungle at Mullaiyaveli, south of Mulaithivu. Unfortunately no UAV images taken upto now have been able to clearly show the site due to thick vegetation and immediate action taken by the LTTE to cover it up.
Civilian informants of MIC residing along the Mulaitivu-Oddusudan road have seen the plane descending in a ball off fire. Some had observed the plane from their Chena cultivations and others had heard the noise of the plane crashing. The area was then cordoned off by the Tigers.
Other credible sources have also confirmed the destruction of the plane. These come from radio messages recorded by 2MIC corp attached to 59 Division in Mullaitivu.
But the most credible information comes in a taped conversation between a Chengdu F-7 pilot and the SLAF Operations Control room at Katunayake. In this tape, heard by sources very close to DefenceWire, the F-7 pilot confirms the sighting and identification of the plane and requests permission to engage it with a missile whereupon the permission is granted and the pilot describes the Zlin taking a direct hit and plunging into darkness over Mulaitivu jungles.
These tapes might never be released to the public due to some sensitive information in them.
Meanwhile some web-based sources have distorted the battle between Black Tiger units and the Special Forces at Vavuniya claiming that there was an intelligence warning of the intrusion and that the Special Forces were lying in waiting for the intruders to come. Unfortunately this was not the case.
The operation was top secret in the LTTE, as it is with this type of suicide operation. It was betrayed only by the vigilance of Special Forces troops deployed in two bunkers in the Omanthai FDL.
The Special Forces platoon was from Special Forces Squadron 2 who were deployed in a small detachment where some injured soldiers and soldiers about to go on leave or had just returned from war were resting or recuperating from injuries but also forming a vital back-up in case of need. This is a normal practice in the Army.
It was these men who made the call to allow the Tigers to come in, instead of engaging them in front of the FDL, in which case they would have escaped and never called in the Zlins in the first place. True to the wise decision of SF soldiers (importantly no officers made the call) the Tigers ran for their lives in the first engagement, but towards the base, instead of the Irattaperiyakulam jungle, and were soon trapped. The entire SF platoon swung into action and started surrounding the now injured Black Tiger unit.
By last morning they were completely surrounded. Wounded and up against a mighty foe, the Tigers had their backs against the wall (or the fence in this case) after having lost the element of surprise. In desperation they called in artillery to take out the radar, but then the Special Forces made their final push killing 11 members of the team in one place with two committing suicide.

nish,
I see what you mean.
http://www.thebottomline.lk/2008/09/10/defence_col.htm
A guy called ruwan weerakoon emailed us sometime back offering to write in this column if we paid him money. We don't need journalists to tell us what's going on in the battlefield so we declined it. Anyway, we are all volunteers who want the truth to get-out and we do what we do due to motivations that are never economic in nature. I now see that this guy has been cutting and pasting stuff from the blog without even mentioning our name. So now do we send him a bill? or deal with him in another way? We will decide. But i tell you, this is pathetic. There are decent bloggers and news website people who are in touch with us as have an 'agreement' with us to copy. Its just courtesy. There are also others who take this information and let their imagination run riot and write all sorts of news items. All we have to say is, you the reader be the judge and keep an eye out for con artists who haven't even seen a shadow of war even in their dreams.

This is a photo from TamilNet and they say this is a house damaged by SLAF bombing yesterday ( Killinochchi)
Please note the dish antenna and the solar panel mounted ( right bottom corner of the roof )
What do you think antenna is used for? Satellite TV ? Can't be right?

tkx indeed 4 the prompt
clarification.
1st of all DW is doing an excellent job = SLAF.
1. I never had doubts about the SLAF interception.
Note : F- 7 max speed 2400 KM Vs
Tin Can @ 240 KM
SLAF bird is a bomber & a intercepter flown by PROF. pilots.
The chase is like an Armed " Hummer Jeep " chasing a 3 x wheeler down the Galle Road , lol
Beside SLAF pilots are the best!!!!
Look @ how nato top guns performing in Afan....n
They kill + civilians / fellow mates ( friendly fire ) than the actual enemies .
look @ the most difficult scenario
out pilots are operatng @ despite the forced human shields.
Check the casuality figures & judge
it by yourselfs.
Remember the SLDF mission in the east. Zero civilian deaths despite
the forced human shields & other threats.
So BRAVO & hates off 2 SLAF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Also SF may god blesssss U all.
U are our living heros!!!!!!
According 2 the inside info. the rader station is up & runing as never before.
So the Tin can Air force be aware!!
Next time = last time.
All SLANS including those of tamil origin shall financially ( word &
deed ) assist SLDF in their nobel mission to FREE our country from this Criminals = LieTTE.
The peelam state is a sick patient,
run by a very mental sick & very FAT thug.
Destroying our country & our people
& taking the most valuable of our society = The men & women of our forces.
This is big business for the Fat Paba... & the other Pigmies.
liberation story is just a smoke screen !!!!!!!!!!!!
Wake up
Every single day gone more money pumped in, so they can live well while sacrificing lifes of kiddy soldiers, women & civilians + the poor & the sick.
Even other Terror masters like
Al...a respects women & children.
The criminal gang is the worst scam of all.
Dear Tamil expats dont be fooled.
Your hard earned money is spend on a journey going no where !!!
The biggest portion goes to the account of the criminal gang bringing DEATH & MISSARY to the poor Tamils & others like.
After 30 + yrs of destruction what
have the Criminal gang achived,
BIG VOID & missary for millons of SLANS.
And still receving FOOD / MEDICINE / EDUCATION all the
rights from VERY SLAN state = People they keep destroying.
Judge it by yourselfs.
We all shall stand firm behind the Govt. & our SLDF on its nobel mission 2 free our country from the Criminal gang .
DW pls set up an corruption FREE tool so our forces have the very best 2 finish the mission & serve this very nation of ALL SLANS

DW,
Don't worry guys, your posts are the most accurate and the most objective of what is out there (why else would we incessantly hang around here).
Reading the BL article was like reading a very cheap thriller, I hate the way that idiot has written as if he saw everything and experienced everything; while honest men toil on in the trench lines and behind enemy lines.
Unfortunately, this is the way that most journalists operate. Please don't take it too hard.
I know that you are officers and gentlemen; anyway I hate it when people directly plagiarize from honest hardworking men like you. But truth will prevail, and we'll make it a point to highlight the plagiarizers, who feed off men like you.

Getting a Zlin was great.. in hindsight I suppose if the SF team warned the HQ of a potential attack (whatever form it was), they could have taken defensive positions and the casualties might have been reduced. I guess they expected an AAB-like attack, not with Arty.

DW,
Thanks for the update, never had a doubt since your first confirmation though.
I find your articles the best, much more interesting and informative than the articles of so called defence journalists. You're providing an excellent service and really appreciate that.
Your writing style and English is perfect for me, even if there's a rare mistake here and there, which all humans likely to make. And that's nothing to bicker about.
About copying your articles by others, we have to expose those rogue journalists. I'm not quite sure as to how though. Ideas by all are welcome.
DW, any idea on how this LTTE team managed to infiltrate Vavunia? I asked earlier as well, any idea on the LTTE team who managed to escape into Padaviya area towards end of last month. Can this team be part of that group?

That bottom line article made me laugh. It looks like a compilation of stories taken from different sources put together by a child:
DefenceWire (2/9/08):
"SLA Artillery batteries fire incessantly on this FDL day and night. Each Battery has 12 howitzers and gunnery crews operating on them continuously."
BL (10/09/08):
"SLA artillery batteries fire incessantly on this FDL, day and night. Each battery has 12 howitzers and gunnery crews operating continuously."
Defencenet (9/9/08):
"Special Forces (SF) units of the Sri Lanka Army have now been deployed in the are to hunt down any remaining tigers who managed to infiltrate the FDL last night."
BL (10/9/08): "The Special Forces have now been deployed in the area, to hunt down any remaining Tigers, who managed to infiltrate the defence lines that night."
And the list goes on lol

Thnaks DW,
I do appreciate your style of writing. Unlike Iqbaal, who could sell his mother for money and various other reasons, DW reports are objective and very much focused.
Long live DW.

DefenceWire and DefenceNet along with Tissa Ravindra of Rivira have rendered other fake defence analysts like Athas obsolete. The most ridiculous defence news these days come from LankaENews, Daily Mirror every now and then, where they lump Sri Lankan and LTTE causalities together. That is the cesspit of defence reporting. It seems that these monkeys have no idea of what country they are living in.

back when I was "over there", Iqbal Athas clumns were my only insight to outside world.
According to Eelanatham, everything was going perfect and Tamil Eelam was in its birth pangs with Kfirs just doing simple expedition flights over Vanni.
Atleast some info is better than none.
His columns helped me to change my mind and go against iyaakam.

Either way, it’s so sad to see all these young lives from both sides wasted away for an uncertain future. They are the future of our country & why do they have to die like this without living the life to it's fulfilment.
Human life’s value has come down to just to a “Number”. And it’s sad, that you people from both sides are trying to claim victory over these countless dead corpses of young boys or girls of our country.
Whether they are Sinhala or Tamil, at the end of the day they are all Sri Lankans
Why can’t we sort out our differences thinking as humans rather than animals…? Isn’t that why we humans have been given an intelligent brain?

Brave heart overbrims with kindness
By Atula Bandara
A police constable who was seriously injuried during the LTTE artillery attack on Vavuniya police complex on Tuesday dared to carry six other injured officers by ambulance to Medawachchiya hospital despite his bleeding injuries that nearly incapacitated him.
While many others ran for safety constable 46592 Lasantha Sujeewa of Badulla took the wheel at the peril of his own skin to rush six fellow officers to hospital. The doctors of Medawachchiya hospital who provided immediate treatment to the injured police personnel including Lasantha transferred them to Anuradhapura hospital. The doctors who praised Lasantha for taking prompt action to rush the injured to hospital said that any further delay would have endangered the lives of two of the officers who were in critical condition. They said Lasantha deserves the respect of other officers of the police force.

One wise man...
//To create another appalling humanitarian crisis in the Vanni region, the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam, made use of the entry – exit point at Omanthai, to attack the Security Forces Headquarters and the Air Force Base located in Vavuniya early on Tuesday morning.Basil Rajapakse: "Government is providing the IDPs with food, medicine and shelter. We are providing whatever possible to the people."
Basil Rajapakse MP and a senior advisor to Sri Lanka President Mahinda Rajapakse said that Omanthai entry – exit point was kept open for the goods and essential food items to move into the Vanni region and the people in Vanni to enter into the Government area to go to hospitals, banks, to travel abroad and to attend to their needs. Making use of this situation, the Tamil Tigers moved their heavy guns very close to the entry – exit point to attack the Security Forces Headquarters in Vavuniya, he pointed out.
He said it was easy to read the Tigers’ sinister intention behind this move. One of the main strategy behind this meanest attack was to force the Government to close down the entry – exit point at Omanthai, located on the A-9 highway, to come up with a propaganda ploy that the Sri Lanka Government has created a humanitarian crisis to prevent peoples’ movements as well as the movement of food and goods in and out of the Vanni region.
Basil Rajapakse told the Asian Tribune that if the Government wants, it can easily take over Omanthai in a day, but the Government is keeping Omanthai open purely on a humanitarian consideration.//

Boys and Girls and anyone in between - nothing wrong being in between anyway : ))
2 things I noticed recently:
* Frequent use of word “Modaya” against Sinhalese by Tamil LTTE supporters.
* Frequent use of term “Tamil Home Land” by Tamil LTTE supporters.
Tamil LTTE supporters’ use these terms trying to get few points (some of it is utter BS) across. But if u think backward or “out of the square” then it is time for a hypothetical…
As most of the Tamil LTTE supporters claims, before King Vijaya 505 BC. establish Sinhala monarchy on this fair Island called “pearl of Indian ocean” Tamils were running the joint and having a “smoke & a pancake” in their home land.
I am not sure when Tamil LTTE supporters claim to have a Tamil home land that it is only the north and east of the Island or the whole Island. I am a very giving person so I’ll give u the whole Island. and so
Hypothetical: Tamils were running the joint before Vijaya crash their party with few of his friends who had few too many to drink.
So, when Vijaya and the boys sail in to Mannar port on this beautiful day the so called Intelligent Tamils who were running this joint but:
1) Failed to identified the threat pose by Vijaya and the boys whom had a moderate views and a sporty life style : ))
2) Failed to kick a bunch of boofe-heads out of their home land
3) Could not protect the best looking women on the Island ( Kuweni ) getting knocked-up by a hunk Vijaya
4) Didn’t had enough fire power to kill a gang of 800 or less
5) Vijaya and the gang of boofe-heads out-smart so called genius Tamil race
6) Vijaya and the gang of 800 bunk down and fought with few (10?? Or 15??) millions of Tamils and won the land
7) When out-smarted, so called smart Tamils failed to negotiate or offer a solution
8) So called Tamil warriors failed to fought back to win their land back
9) Failed to negotiates with their cousins in Tamilnadu to come and help them to kick Vijaya and boys out
10) Failed to produce a beautiful enough women to get Vijaya to marry after he divorce his first wife so lost the last chance to protect the crown.
For the next 2000 years (until English crashed the party), Sinhala people:
• had their “ smoke & Pancakes”
• knocked-up few “Miss world” from India
• went to Thailand for a quick massage
• Did “Ding-a-Dong” with Chinese
• Smoked best from Afghanistan,
• Rode Iranian horse and bet for the winners,
• Had a drink with Roman emperors and olive oiled skinned hoties,
• share a laugh with funny people from Russia,
• rap few songs with African home-boys,
• talked philosophy with Greeks after few drinks,
• swooped architectures with Egypt and bet they had a crack @ Cleopatra,
• built massive swimming pools and relaxed with Europeans
and ofcoz looked after and developed the beautiful country too!
So called brilliant Tamils lost the plot and whingh for next 2000 years??? and sabotaged the development of this beautiful county every time they could with the help of equally retarded cousins from Tamilnadu???????
So, who are the real modayas??????
And honestly speaking Tamil Ellam/Ezam/ or Meepasanam a bunch of retarded scums and no way Sri Lankans going to loose their land to MODA LTTE ponnayas!
So, MODA LTTE/Eelam/Eezam and MODA DI-ASS –PORA the only way to survive and develop is to join Sri Lankans and move forward.
AmmaGahai
P.S. Tamil Ellam/Ezam/ or Meepasanam : This is only a “Hypothetical” and u never ran the joint. So, snap out of ur wet dream before u have an orgasm.
Any “Tight Ars@” reply with-out sense of humor will be dismissed just like Eelam
bandara: pls don’t try to fill blanks but try coming up with an original (bet u can’t) so better try finding that “open pit toilet”
Even though u guys didn’t care about MasterCard and VISA commercial rights pls respect my “copy rights” on this piece.
If u guys felt like I rub salt to ur wounds pls donate some money to “Tsunami Fund”. VP need money as he began up-grading a flying Tuk-Tuk with Gold plated toilets, massage seats, personal bar with “Kassippu on the tap” and have employed few Buxom Blondies from Norway for his planed escape to Africa.
