We are reading about war crimes and ethnic cleansing on an unimaginable scale. I wonder when these artillery shells will stop raining upon our people and whether there will be justice for the victims.
Located at the Centre for Policy Alternatives in Colombo, Sri Lanka, Groundviews is a citizen journalism website that uses a range of genres and media to highlight critical perspectives on governance, reconciliation, human rights, the arts and literature, democracy and other issues. The site has won two international awards, including the prestigious Manthan Award South Asia in 2009. The grand jury's evaluation of the site noted, "What no media dares to report, Groundviews publicly exposes. It's a new age media for a new Sri Lanka... Free media at it's very best!"

Today is a very sad day for all. On this Vesak weekend unprecedented ammount of civilians have been killed. hope we all take stock
also, justice for muslims and sinhalese in the north and east who were ethnically cleansed by the LTTE, and also for the victims of the bombing events carried out by LTTE….
actually that justice demands the death of LTTE leasdership…….
I agree . Justice to the northern Muslims, SInhala. How about including rajapakse and, in it it as well for their ethnic cleansings as it happens now. that is true justice
Dont forget there is hundreds and thousands of Sinhala people in Jaffan, North and east. Since the Army is 99% Sinhala and they occupy most of the above mentioned areas there is too much presence of Sinhalease there.
