I don't understand how can India take a double standard by talking to a terrorist outfit like the LTTE. Is there any doubt in the mind of ant sensible person that the LTTE is a terrorist outfit. Not only they killed our beloved Rajiv Gandhi but they are still involved in terrorist activities in our neibouring country.
A terrorist out should never be encouraged by talking to them. Rather efforts should be made to punish all those involved (including Prabhakaran).
LTTE is not sincere in apologizing. It only a tactical move by LTTE becuase the EU has also declared them as a terrorist outfit.
