| Sivaraj : Raping women ? That's what soldiers do. They call it the spoils of war and it happens in all armies in every country in the world. Tamils have not been singled out for special treatment, so please try and do something about your persecution complex. |

These soldiers are occupation forces in tamil lands....
The GOSL claims the tamils of the NE to be citizens of Sri Lanka
In this backdrop rapes and murders with impunity in a so called democracy is unjustified under ANY CIRCUMSTANCES...

| Dillont : As an observer I think you will find that my understanding of Tamil aspirations is quite finely tuned, but probably more in tune with the thinking of those who reside in Galle and Colombo, rather than the gullible from Jaffna and the East, who have been promised the cure-all of independence and are prepared to fight for a false cause. Ethnicity ? Yes thank you I've got some of that, but it's concentration on matters of ethnic grouping that caused the problem in the first place. |

Those young hearts pounded from the airNews, Commentary, TW Reader Commented at 1:08 am
by K.T. Kumaran
Little wonders they, the children grow up aspiring about their future, a betterment that will dawn in the world around them. Adversities are a mountain climb yet they don?t get deterred. A smile and confidence is their trait. Ameican Poet Maya Angelou aptly captures this - ?Children?s talent to endure stems from their ignorance of alternatives?.
The horror of death from the air pounding the hearts of the young came Monday August 14th, near Kilinochchi ? again.
When children are plucked away, violently, hearts bleeds in grief.
These children and their parents faced decades of war, food embargos and then the tsunami.
?Our deep sorrow is with their loved ones during this time of grief -for this senseless loss, and a promise to work for a better and more peaceful tomorrow for other children is the only glowing tribute to those young hearts that are not among us today?, said a caller on a Talk Radio on Monday.
Many Tamils, particularly in the diaspora communities expressed their sadness but also anger on the airwaves and several online portals over the horrific incident.
However the Sri Lankan authorities, particularly their spokesman Rambukwella and his Peace Secretariat cohort Kohona seem to be paying scant regard to loss human life, children.
According to a Voice of America report, U.N. spokesperson Orla Clinton said U.N. is still gathering information about the incident, in collaboration with international cease-fire monitors form the Sri Lanka Monitoring Mission (SLMM).
The VOA report further says:
The orphanage was evacuated before recent hostilities erupted, but Clinton says it was being used by another group of young people.
?What we know at the moment is that these seem to have been students between 16-and-18, A-Level students, from the Kilinochi and Mullativu area, who were on a two-day training course in first aid,? she said.
Investigators say it appears that the facility was bombed by ?Kfir? jets, used by the Sri Lankan Air force.
?And apparently, four Kfirs, according to SLMM the Sri Lanka Monitoring Mission , dropped bombs on the area, the center where they were,? added Clinton, according to VOA News.
International ceasefire monitors who visited the site of the Sri Lankan airstrike Monday, said they couldn?t find ?any evidence of military installations or weapons.? Head of the Sri Lanka Monitoring Mission (SLMM), Ulf Henricsson, said monitors who visited Chencholai Valaham after the airstrike said they found at least 10 bomb craters and an unexploded bomb. ?It was not a military installation, we can see that ,? Mr. Henricsson told Sri Lanka?s MTV television.
Humanity plunged at the start of the year with horrific execution of innocent youths on the ocean front in the Eastern port city of Trincomalee. The months followed after have seen several violent incidents, many of the fallen are youths and children also women and elders.
Many such wanton acts happened but international community was blind folded. Only when a few days ago, humanity in service fighting hunger got eradicated in Muthur louder voices were heard. Several leaders around the world, including former US leader, President Bill Clinton called for an independent inquiry. However, Sri Lankan authorities are deliberately hampering efforts to investigate the murder of 17 aid workers, ranging from ages 24 to 54. The chief truce monitor retired Maj. Gen. Ulf Henricsson, who heads the unarmed Sri Lanka Monitoring Mission (SLMM) has said that when independent observers are not let in, it?s a sign that there?s something they want to hide.
Senseless loss again, will the Sri Lankan government be held accountable by the international community over the death of children, young hearts pounded from the air? |

Is that your way of saying you are a sinhalese??
With your 'understanding' based on people in galle and colombo..you wouldn't know why this armed conflict started in teh first place...
30 years of gandhian protests were met with periodical violences against teh tamils by the sinhala state.... |
