The country can achieve permanent peace only through defeating terrorism 100 per cent militarily, Defense Secretary Gotabhaya Rajapaksa said in Trincomalee on September 17, according to Daily News. "We cannot establish permanent peace in the country by winning only half or two thirds of the war against terrorism," he said, adding the President Mahinda Rajapakse cannot implement the desired political solution for the North and East conflict unless Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) terrorism was defeated 100 per cent. He reiterated that the LTTE terrorism can be defeated by military means and the security forces (SFs) are committed to achieve that task without passing the burden of war to the next generation. He stressed that SFs have now been able to confine the LTTE terrorism and its leader Prabhakaran only to the Wanni with the liberation of the East, adding, "If we are aware that LTTE terrorism exists only in the Wanni there is no hesitation on our part about the next step."
