Inaccuracies

This article's conclusion is total BS. Even Tamilnet admits the LTTE didn't capture Pooneryn.

The SLA established the Pooneryn base complex in 1992. It was almost overrun by the Liberation Tigers in an amphibious operation called 'Frog Leap' in November 1993.

But the SLA re-established its positions when the Liberation Tigers withdrew after bitter fighting with reinforcements."

http://www.tamilnet.com/art.html?catid=13&artid=2215. The article leaves this part out, and makes it sound as if the LTTE capptured the area. --snowolfD4 ^{( talk / @ )} 16:38, 15 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

removing POV tag with no active discussion per Template:POV

I've removed an old neutrality tag from this page that appears to have no active discussion per the instructions at Template:POV:

This template is not meant to be a permanent resident on any article. Remove this template whenever:

There is consensus on the talkpage or the NPOV Noticeboard that the issue has been resolved
It is not clear what the neutrality issue is, and no satisfactory explanation has been given
In the absence of any discussion, or if the discussion has become dormant.

Since there's no evidence of ongoing discussion, I'm removing the tag for now. If discussion is continuing and I've failed to see it, however, please feel free to restore the template and continue to address the issues. Thanks to everybody working on this one! -- Khazar2 (talk) 00:48, 22 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
