But around Europe, anger is rising that German politicians are playing a deadly game of poker with GM for which others might end up paying the price. "We cannot get into a situation where everyone is trying to outdo each other, in which we see how much money Germany can put on the table and how much we can," said Flemish Premier Kris Peeters.

"My childhood was spent in the small circle of a lonely, quiet house," he said in a 1994 interview. He described a deep-seated anger against the military and remembered an eighth-grade teacher who exhorted students to take up arms against it. "It is he who impressed on me the need for armed struggle and persuaded me to put my trust in it," Prabhakaran said. Jaffna was then considered the heart of Tamil culture...
