Is it true that Sam Pari was an LTTE (Tamil Tiger) propagandist?

@neethiniyayam Whole world knows the brutality of LTTE. I don't know what the hell this bitch in Australia talking abt on trade sanctions and boycotting Sri Lanka. How's that gonna help Tamils in Sri Lanka coz if they do that, only poor civilians would be affected but the Government will be in a cushy positions. Majority of Sri Lankans would support the Gov as we don't depend on International so called community.
