Its nothing more than an EYE FOR AN EYE!
The bodies of 16 civilians including 5 children, three girls and two boys, killed Friday afternoon in Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) controlled Vanni during the claymore attack by the Deep Penetration Unit (DPU) of Sri Lanka Army (SLA) were laid to rest Saturday afternoon 5:20 p.m. in Baarathypuram General Cemetery.
On monday 9 civilian commuters were killed and more than 70 wounded in a bomb blast around 4:45 p.m. at Dehiwela railway station in Colombo.
If the GOSL stops targeting Tamil civilians in the north…maybe the LTTE might stop targeting civilians in the south!
