Poet,
Pera's comments about the LTTE's abilities to strike in the south clearly shows how even the educated sinhalas are taken in by their govt's propaganda.
The govt believing its own propaganda and declaring that they will destroy the Tigers in six months can be laughed off as the pronouncements of a bunch of incompetent, uneducated politicians and gung-ho military men but how can you understand someone like Pera, who I believe is an educated fellow, making assumptions based of this false propaganda.
It beggars belief that the sinhala govt and its military leaders haven't learnt a single lesson about guerrilla warfare or the tactics of the LTTE with whom they have been fighting for the past thirty, yes thirty, years. |

What could I say, rather than congratulating you.
Yes, LTTE has attacked and killed 30 civillians today.
I only wanted to say how can you accuse LTTE when they are not in Sinhalese Jungle for Buttala attack?
These attacks can be carried out by many others who want the intensification of the war. |

My fear is that South also could be a mono-ethnic place like north.
That is the inevitability of madness of extremism that was promoted and encouraged by JVP/JHU and now their follower MR himself.
We can live like brothers as in Canada or Switzerland or divide (and fall) like India and Pakistan or Eritria and Ethiopia. It is largely up to the SL govt and to a lesser degree LTTE. SLG acts and LTTE reacts, if unitary is the action, eelam will be the reaction. |

Perhaps we all forgot who started killing civillians.. I think Sinhala people are much better in that job, believ me, I have seen UNP goons killing Tamils in 1983!
this is nothing to be proud about.
civilians being killed on both sides, though started by gov, who killed over 90% of citizens.
If Sinhalese people are seriously interested in the safety of Sinhalese civilians, they should react and have mass protests when Tamil civilians get killed, rather than deny or celebrate over attrocities carried out by GOSL.
Ever since 1985 killings in VVT and then Anuradhapura, we all know what follows when SLDF go on their killing spree. It is up to Sinhalese people to decide what they want more:
- either allow GOSL to kill more Tamil citizens for their pleasure, and let few Sinhalese civilians to go down with them
- or drop the hatred and put pressure on their gov to improve on their human rights. This can only be done as a collective effort, not just few people.
you can't have the cake and eat it, (Tamils getting killed and Sinhalese being safe). that is the reality.
--
on Tamil side, they should avoid encouraging retaliation attacks. it only boost GOSL army's morale and further consequences |

Pera,
I am not happy that thirty civilians are dead today. I am not happy about targeting civilians in war.
Nobody talks about the 'collateral' damage of tamil civilian deaths in the Vanni due to aerial bombings by the SLAF or the targeted killings of six tamil civilians a day in Jaffna and the disappearances of many more.
The sinhala south is baying for blood and 85% of the population wanted war with the LTTE. As long as tamils are dying it is ok for them and they have had a peaceful existence since Mahinda was elected in Nov 2005. During thist wo year period the tamils have had to undergo absolute terror from aerial bombings, arrests, killings, disappearances and worse.
A taste of your own medicine sometimes helps to make you wake up and realise that the medicine you prescribed after all is not the best medicine for you. |

you cant say any civilian casualties from aerial bombardment is accidental or collateral damage. with aerial bombardment, the risk of civilian deaths is very high, all army and GOSL are aware, but still use Kfirs as only Tamil civilians live there. very few countries use aerial bombardment in their own country borders, eg. Sudan
hypothetical situation, if LTTE liberates Seruvila (Sinhalese majority area), and Sinhalese civilians remain under LTTE control, do you really thing GOSL will use aerial bombardment to target LTTE camps in Seruvila? No
