What is Tamil Tigers?
1.
The Tamil Tigers aka the LTTE are a group of Tamils fighting for Tamil Eelam. They were set up to fight against the discriminatory Sinhalese government's attempts to treat Tamils living in Sri Lanka as second class citizens.
However, in their attempts to do this they ended up stooping down to immoral acts - although they did not commit as many attrocities against civilians as the Sinhalese government did.
Whilst they are a terrorist organisation, mostly interested in their own agenda, they are less responsible for the conflict in Sri Lanka than the government. Now that they have been pretty much defeated, the Sinhalese government will have a free reign and if something is not done there is a danger that there will be a genocide. Tamil civilians in Sri Lanka must be helped!
The Tamil Tigers may be bad but they haven't murdered as many innocent people as the Sinhalese government.
