No leader after V. Prabhakran?

In an interview with Al Jazeera, Narayan Swami from New Delhi named as a Sri Lanka commentator and writer, says - that after V. Prabhakaran there will be no leader to lead a military struggle which had so much violence, so many killings and death.

There will not be many takers to that kind of a struggle anymore.

However Sri Lanka's position is that all Tamils in Sri Lanka are not in the LTTE or LTTE supporters and Prabhakaran is not the sole leader of the Tamil community of Sri Lanka - Lankapuvath
