The picture in the attachment was taken on the Final Days at the
battlefield in Mullaitivu, Northern Province of SRI LANKA when the so called `Invincible
` terrorists named as LTTE or Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam, were
completely decimated by the Sri Lanka Armed services.

The long drawn out war of 30 years is over and PEACE has dawned in Sri Lanka once again.

The picture epitomises the gruesome atmosphere of a fierce battle, and the natural humanitarian action of a Sri Lanka Army soldier saving a Tamil toddler and taking him to safety.The toddler shows full confidence in the soldier. This picture can be compared to the award winning picture of the small girl crying and running naked when a napalm bomb was exploded by US Army against civilians in Vietnam, which was splashed all over the cover of TIME magazine and in all world newspapers.

	Unlike photos from Vietnam, I doubt the western media will ever show this photo.

	This is a nice photo... but, it lacks facial expressions that were there in famous Vietnam photos... Neither the child nor the soldier shows no fear or urgency in their faces...

	What does someone expect after a thrity year war? Buildings, houses, roads and everything intact? Have you ever seen pics of Japan,France and Germany to name a few after World War Two?
