Tell the military to stop using civilians as human shields for their transports.

Close the roads when moving military convoys like they do for Goat-boy-ahhh.

Tit-for-tat terrorism will desroy us all.

He must stop kidnapping, torture and extra judicial killing of Tamils.

The president must stop his military agenda and table concrete proposals for genuine negotiations.

See how these racist Tamils here justify killing of innocent civilians when VP does it. LTTE'rs are barbaric terrorists who terrorize their own people and others for a useless racist cause. A separate land for just ethnic Tamils in a small country like Sri Lanka--Stupid idea of VP and losers support that. VP is willing to kill 50,000 Tamils in Jaffna to take over Jaffna again...Nice dream but will that ever happens? Now no east....but wanna get north....VP is living in Tamil Nadu dream movie.

Poor innocent Tamils will suffer in the hands of barbaric LTTE.

Human shields??????
Man we are not talking about a bomb explosion near Kilinochchi. This is Ratmalana and galle road is being used by civilians 24/7.
Looks like VP wants to play like he used to do in 94/95. Most of the dead are civilians, but VP wont care about that. What can we expaect from that barbaric animal when he doesn't even care about Tamil kids.
Way to go VP, you seem to be getting isolated by every single move you make.
First his gang kills south Indian fishermen, then some Civilians in the south.
