This is completely absurd. The news media is going crazy over this so-called end to a brutal civil war in Sri Lanka (see my post explaining the background on it). There is so much propaganda coming from all sides, including from countries which feel guilty for not having done anything in Sri Lanka after promising time and time again to prevent genocides from occuring.
In any case, the news have it that the Tigers have been killed, and that clearly, the violence will stop immidiately. Because before the Tigers there was no violence in Sri Lanka. They were NOT a reaction against institutionalized discrimination where there were maximum quotas of how many Tamils could be accepted at universities, and government troops sneaking into villages at night and killing whole groups of young Tamils.
I am ashamed of my country and the rest of the world for ignoring yet another genocide. So much for "never again". Absolutely disguasting.
