After a three-day rescue mission, 400 of them arrived in safety after hiding for weeks in the jungles in the north, where government forces are fighting Tamil Tiger rebels.

  • Sri Lankan forces scorch the rebel held areas not to kill the rebels, but to destroy the innocent civilians. If the "safe zone" is in the rebel held areas, whose shells kill people? Is it the army's that wants to advance into the rebel territory or the rebels'? Don't tell us the rebels fire straight up into the air and have shells fallen on their heads..!

  • You Sinhala Fuck, LTTE is not a terrorist group, they are freedom fighters, fighting for their rights and you have the modern day hitler Rajabhakse will be punished soon
