The Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE), commonly known as the Tamil Tigers, are a militant Tamil nationalist organization that has engaged in a secessionist campaign since the 1970s in order to create a separate Tamil state in the north and east of Sri Lanka. The Tamil Tigers are currently proscribed as a terrorist organization by 32 countries.
The Tamil Tigers are notorious for their well-developed militia cadre, atrocities against Muslim and Sinhalese civilians, and high profile attacks, such as the assassination of several high ranking Sri Lankan politicians, and the former Prime Minister of India, Rajiv Gandhi. They also have the distinction of introducing suicide bombings as a tactic, and have carried out more suicide bombings than Hamas, Islamic Jihad, and Al-Qaeda combined. The LTTE are the only rebel organization with aircraft.

While writing an article on the lucrative endorsement career of Olympic skiing champion Jean-Claude Killy, Hunter S. Thompson was standing around a Detroit auto show when two kids came up to Thompson and asked if he was Killy. "That's right," he said. When they asked he was doing, he held up his tobacco pipe and said, "I'm smoking marijuana." When the children appeared incredulous, he added, "That's what makes me ski so fast."

I highly recommend RenewAmerica for its... uh, independent take on current events. They've got this hot Christian bitch named Marie Jon who writes a column for them... Gov. Palin is a "can do" independent thinking woman who does not always go along with group-think. She'll take on political corruption in Washington, D.C. There is nothing pretentious about her. She is a bright, intelligent, common sense person who will help McCain bring about the change we've all been hearing about.http://www.renewamerica.us/columns/jon/080902
