The Government of Sri Lanka Terrorist State.

[mightysun1]

It is to be blamed on both sides. All lose control and try to dominate the other. At the end the poor civilians are the target. And the country has forgotten the Lord Almighty, who created the world and everything in it, and the Man in His own image. When a man abandons God, He abandons man. God still loves you, why you want to let it go. Sri lanka has become a cursed country from what it was before. All humans created by God, why hate each other one day you are going to give an account to God

[nirojan1986]

The Government of Sri Lanka (GoSL) is a Terrorist State.

While on a U.N. Mission in Haiti the Government of Sri Lanka( GoSL) Soldiers Raped underage children in Haiti.

If they can do that under the watchful eye of the UN imagine what they are doing to the Tamils in Sri Lanka. Where they control everything.

Search for "Sri Lanka Haiti" in a search engine like GOOGLE and you will see the truth.

"Sri Lankan "peacekeepers" sent home over sex-for-pay scandal in Haiti "

[USMarines77]

If media people cannot seek their security and safety PLEASE STAY AT HOME. Let the Army finish terror and they go there you idiots.

[kgruban]

[Tamilonthestreet]

It is the fault of all SriLankans Tamils and Sinhalese a like to let this problem get to what it is now ! To allow terror groups to expand to such extents that there no go areas ! The Judiciary had broken down ! Assasinating not only the local leaders but leaders of neighbouring countries ? What have we been doing all this while when our country had slowly been taken over International Terror Groups ? Thank God ! that someone opened their eyes and decided to do something !

THANKS SLA !

[pandri5000]

The atrocities committed by the Sri Lankan Government on the Tamil people, whom it claims to be its own people, are blatant State Terrorism. The Tamil community has been waging a struggle against this State Terrorism for more than fifty years.

[bestfeetlover]

All loosing political parties like UNP and loosing media like Sirasa are trying their best to discredit the government by any means. First Sirasa attacked their own studio to claim insurance and accused the government. Then UNP-LTTE unity killed their own media person to get sympathy from the external world.

It has been found that Sirasa Dancing Star 2 (SDS2) has been rejected by more than 70% of people who watched the SDS1. Sirasa news has been rejected even by UNP supporters.

Two attack aircraft of the Liberation Tigers bombed the Sri Lankan militarys main base complex in the Jaffna peninsula in the early hours of saterday morning, inflicting heavy damage and casualties, LTTE military spokesman Irasiah Ilanthirayan told TamilNet. Tamileelam Air Force bombers had hit an Engineering Unit of the complex and a military storage, the Tigers spokesman claimed. Meanwhile sources said continuous explosions were heard from inside the High Security Zone ---tamilpoinet

[centrino987]

after LTTE we should get rid of UNP non-patriots. and fuck the international community

[ponnapille]

tamil kill tamils

ltte launched indiscriminate artillery barrage into the newly announced 'safety zone' killing at least 108 civilians and causing injuries to more than 200, according to initial details from the medical sources in the area. Every shell that hit the area seemed to have caused casualties,said a doctor at the makeshift hospital at Maaththa'lan.More than 100,000 people have been forced into a plain and narrow strip along the coast, north of Mullaiththeevu town,without potable water

[ponnapille]

lttp president, murderko-run, is a dictator. He and histerrorist-brothers are committing genocide against Tamil innocent civilians&makkal padai. UN and the international communities should stop this genocide before we see another Rwanda. These terrorist should be prosecuted in the international court

[ponnapille]

TRINCOMALEE, Sri Lanka, Feb 12 (Reuters) - Tamil Tigers rebels shot at civilians trying to flee fighting in Sri Lanka's northern war zone, wounded witnesses said on Thursday after. A nun, Sister Louise, said the LTTE fired at people repeatedly when they begged to leave."When we tried to escape with civilians, LTTE had fired at me. I got shot in my leg," she said from her hospital bed.

I sent $200 every month to Prabakaran for the last 10 years totaling $24,000. What happened to all of them? I can build a new house in the North for that money.

SLA please dont break all the buildings and the houses.

When the war is over Canada will pack all the refugees back to Sri Lanka. We have to come back to Sri Lanka and live in the North. Karuna please help the Tamil people.

[landangirl]

If the government feels strongly about its footing, why should it matter what a couple of opposing journalists say? It shouldn't, but the point is the ground on which they stand is faltering and the human rights abuses that they are committing are coming into the light finally.

[drukpamongol]

All the best to Sri Lankan army, you guys did a great job in kicking hairyLTTE ass.

[drukpamongol]

The major media of the nation should learn to discipline themselves when a nation is under going great changes. Who cares about the fucking journalist, nobody remembers the boyard landlords murdered by Ivan the terrible as said by Joseph Stalin.

[ZeroWolf1985]

Well, a journalist is also a human being. But I guess in your limited brain he's just another number, eh?

[TAMiiLSouLjA]

lttp killed all(50000) the young members of epdp,eross,eprlf,telo,plot,mah ataya-tamil,tnt,mtv,tmvp,karun a-tamils,wellala,devanada-tami ls and jaffna-muslims!! lttp killed 300+tamil naadu tamils along side with rajive.!

thank you russia for not entertaining IDIOTS at the UN.

and thank you UK too,

Sir John Sawers, permanent representative of the United Kingdom to the UN, thank you sir!

UK, US, EU, we are fighting YOUR terrorists!!!

[ponnapille]

According to various sources from vanni: lttp yesterday KILLED 61 tamils civilians and wounded 12 by shelling a HOSPITAL. Is this lttp's revenge for losing over 1000 podiyance this month? Go fight army and don't shell civilians. Leave the ppl in these places alone. Bring the truth casualties outside to the world. It is just a start. The lttphas to reply the families of the maaweera for hiding the situation on the war.lttp Stop shelling hospitals, stop shelling innocents. STOP THIS DIRTY WAR.

[Roshansmith]

Why cant we see the truth? Forget about the skin colour of the people who broadcast this, the question is , is there a truth in these allegations? we all know there is, if someone says no he is a fucking idiot who doesnt have a backbone

[anurapriyan]

rubbish report from al jazeera reporter. telecast the truth. most of the reports of this reporter is very bias and supporting terrorism. his inner thought is to tarnish the good image of sri lankan government and sri lankan army. actually the government of sri lanka should not allow to spread this kind of bias, untruthful news all around the world prepaired by this kind of clowns supporting terrorism.

[amalchanaka]

al jazeera try and get doha indefendence from your shiek who dictate the doha. and you white mother fuckers who lik arab asses for money go back to enganld and lik each others ass since you dont have jobs in london. al jazeerah get lost.

[TAMiiLSouLjA]

our leadermuderko-run is a proffesor in mass murder, graduated from mulathive college of terrorisum!

so we tamil follow this convict murdere of indian courts, b`couse we r higly educated!..lol

[SINGALAMOODYA]

The Sri Lankan government may be celebrating great military victories in the north of the island but hundreds of thousands of its own civilians are suffering and dying, due to government attacks, Robert Evans said in a statement.

Evans, chairman of the European Parliament delegation for relations with South Asia, has visited Sri Lanka several times, most recently in July 2008.

[Dennylanka]

Hey body ,who give shit about this British has to say. British were the most dengerous terrorists in the world before LTTE. For Sri Lnkan Independence not even a single Tamil has sacrified their life. U tamils a good at sucking whites. We Sinhalese fought againt the British to defend our country.

This is our country, outsiders can say nothing how we should run. If u have a problem with that go and suck them.

[SINGALAMOODYA]

The troops of the Sri Lankan government, a government indirectly supported by the West, stand accused of war crimes and atrocities, he added. Evans said the Sri Lankan government had rejected the claims of civilians being killed and wounded, and called these reports a hoax and a total fabrication.

[SINGALAMOODYA]

When the Red Cross say hospitals and ambulances have been hit by shelling, the situation is becoming all too much like Gaza. The world was appalled by what happened in the Middle East but ignores Sri Lanka where the situation is much the same, the member of European Parliament said.

Government troops are also accused of a string of sexual assaults and the rape of prisoners and those held in detention camps. Its another Abu Ghraib situation and it cant just be dismissed, Evans insisted.

[Dennylanka]

International media reports yesterday (Feb 4) revealed that the United Kingdom has arrested one of its army colonels for allegedly leaking casualty figures in Afghanistan to one female "human rights "campaigner.

The media reports quoting the UK Ministry of Defence said that Lieutenant-Colonel Owen McNally was held on suspicion of breaching the Official Secrets Act and the officer was being sent back to the UK for questioning, where his case has been referred to the Metropolitan Police.

[chiliadeyes]

Sorry to say that AlJazeera the channel for truth and unbiased news has lost all credibility with me & majority of the Sri Lankan people due to the irresponsible, speculative, pro-Terrorist stance held by Tony Bertly! Through him the LTTE & it's supporters are manipulating Aljazeera to broadcast Terrorist propaganda!

By ur act of defaming the Legitimate & responsible SL Gov, u r prolong a 3 decade old war by giving respite to LTTE. U will have the blood of Tamils & other civilians on ur hands!

[chiliadeyes]

AlJazeera is speculating, speculations cannot b news, only facts can b news. There is no evidence that the SL Gov was involve in any of the attacks on media, except for 1 stupid minister who went & attacked the State TV!

The only party attempting to get mileage out of this is the LTTE & opposition steadfast on undermining the SLG & through that the Army. The former to get respite from war & the latter to come into power!

So if I too speculate, media attacks were done by the LTTE or Opposition!

[chiliadeyes]

Samaraweera & Ganesan r 2 leading fellows hell-bent on stopping the war to save the LTTE & toppling the SL Gov! We have saying in SL which goes "Asking the thief's mother about whereabouts of the Thief"!

AlJazera has totally Lost it's way in the case of SL! They have been shrewdly manipulated by the LTTE Terrorist & their sympathisers to paint a ugly picture of the SLG & SLA in the int community. Wouldn't b surprised if Bertly was on the LTTE pay list, the way he is spreading false propaganda!

[snipelion83]

mother fucker first you comment about your country, then try to suck others ass holes. we can mange over country no one need to think about sri lanka

[NaveenAsphalt]

wow i didnt expect this from AlJazeera... you guys need get your facts straight...

rkprashad explained it perfectly

"several opposition leaders were arrested for attacking the TV station with evidence. Also the murderers of the Journalist Lasantha have been arrested. so there is no point of accusing to the sri lankan government. Sri lankan MP Mangala samaraveera is a big lire. try to find what he told in the past. hope aljazeera will be more responsible when reporting news"

[spookygirl21]

At a time when the ONLY Patriotic Leader to rule SLanka is Destroying the CURSE,there are these

Traitors who try to Discredict the government for their Own selfish gains, NORWAY is behind these so called SLankanSinhalese Thugs,so get rid of them NOW,God Bless Rajapaksa, i´m not even a S Lankan, but i was living inS Lanka with the ONLY Peaceloving people on Earth,

[sinster007]

Shut your mouth and praise the victories in the war front. You are bankrupt

[johnvdws]

this is stupid Mangala Mongall,..

[jillball]

A very imbalance, bias report. When Managla said many TV stations were attacked, the guy justified it by showing MBC as an example. Dilrukshi would write anything for a few bucks. Ganeshan is a nutter. US ambassadors who wrote last week were always critical of the government. Only the US government has been supportive and they still are. There was not enough time for Keheliya, or any other comoon man to express opinion.

[rkprashad]

several opposition leaders were arrested for attacking the TV station with evidence. Also the murderers of the Journalist Lasantha have been arrested. so there is no point of accusing to the sri lankan government. Sri lankan MP Mangala samaraveera is a big lire. try to find what he told in the past. hope aljazeera will be more responsible when reporting news.

[frankmen3]

I think everyone forgotton the way UNP crushed JVP in late 80s. Now UNPers are talking like thay came from another planet, end of the story.

[ATrueSriLankan]

Its good to have opposition even at the time of war, otherwise you loose perspective.

IC is not gonna solve our problems we have to solve it our selves.

Al Jazeera again chasing conspiracy theories.

[R3dp055um]

I wonder how many people know the origin of this conflict?

Nobody ever seems to mention that this all began with a terrible pogrom against the Tamil by the Sinhalese right after independence.

[H1EA9T]

Country is in war. civil rights have to be suspended
