Tamil Terrorists were warned of these consequences long before GOSL decided to abrogate ceasefire agreement due to Tamil Terror Atrocities and start whipping Tamil Terror Butts.However personally I am disappointed as Tamil Terrorists have not stood by their barks to fight back SLDF as much as LNP Tamil Terror Diaspora has been advertising.Every inch of land fumigated from Tamil Terrorism means freedom to innocent Sri Lankans...:-)

People are forced to live under trees. When they try to sit under the trees SL AF bombs and SLA bombard to make them on the run continuously.

Present root cause is Tamil Terrorism.Past root cause was egoistic Tamil Politicians.
Past minor scuffles turned into present mega scuffles due to Tamil Tribalism.
Things that cannot be acquired peacefully could never be achieved with armed aggression. Get these simple basics to your head.
Tamil uncivilized actions in the past were treated with uncivilized manner by Sinhalese as the acts were naturally aimed at the majority who were Sinhalese. Hence communal violence not started automatically, but due to provocative measures by Tamil politicians who used Tamil thugs to create unrest and gave innocent Sri Lankan Tamil as baits to achieve their selfish egos. It s too late to reverse what happened in the past, but not too late for reconciliation to build a better and a united Sri Lanka. Hence Tamil Terrorism, who opposed to a united Sri Lanka must be stopped with sacrifices by all Sri Lankan citizens...:-)
