Sri Lanka won t agree to a cease- fire proposed by the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam and the United Nations, said President Mahinda Rajapaksa, who attributed his forces delay in defeating the rebel group to the government s concern for civilians trapped in the war zone.
We will not cave into pressures from any international quarters, locally and internationally, and will not stop until the war is completely over, Rajapaksa said today, according to a statement on Media Centre for National Security s Web site.

The UN is leading calls for the government and the LTTE to stop fighting to allow aid to reach between 150,000 and 190,000 civilians caught in the island country s northeastern region and in need of food and medical supplies. The LTTE is fighting for a separate Tamil homeland in the region, in a conflict that has claimed more than 70,000 lives.

Nobody, even the UNITED NATIONS, the UNITED STATES nor BRITAIN is going to impose any sort of cease-fire with a globally banned, brutal, genocidal coward, terrorist outfit fighting a bunker war with the legitimate, democratically elected government of SRI LANKA!

These terrorists are killing their own Tamil community.
They are stealing food & medical supplies sent by the government to innocent Tamils caught in the war!

They do not allow unarmed, civilian Tamils to go to safe areas declared by the Sri Lankan State.

Instead, the UN,US & Britain should force the tiger terrorists to let the Tamil civilians to go wherever they wish to and order the terrorists to fight the last leg of the 'losing war'!

So, what sort of a cease fire to agree with such a brutal bunch of terrorists?

The GOSL has to go a little more to liberate the rest of the North and bring the whole of SRI LANKA under the Proud LION FLAG!
