Yep, and this was just one of their attacks that targeted Sri Lanka civilians. They killed and maimed hundreds of people in the pursuit of their cause. They also targeted government and military officials. But the random killing of civilians and their tactics to create terror was what caused them to be labelled as a terrorist organization by atleast 32 countries.

Not exactly the ideal tactic for gaining public support.
