Mr B.Raman, It's deep regret that you didn't include EVEN the recent atrocities of the Sri Lankan govermnet 1. The state sponsored terrorism of killing Jounalists like Mr Sivaram (Tharaki) 2. Rape and murder of a teenage girl(Tharsini) by Sri Lankan Naval personnel (There are many such instances and pointing out only one) 3. Countless abductions, rape, murder and targetted assasinations of civilians by Sri Lanka 4. Attack against Jaffna Varsity Vice Chancellor and students 5. Now killing of the Member of Parliment
It's to be noted that ONLY after the utter failure of nearly 30 years of peaceful struggles and demonstrations have made the tamil groups to take arms to get the FUNDAMENTAL rights.
