Dear Mahinda, Here's an observation about 2009, made by the international award-winning journalist and author Nirupama Subramanian:
"As Sri Lanka mulls over last month’s United Nations Human Rights Council resolution, it may look back with nostalgia at its 2009 triumph at Geneva. Then, barely a week after its victory over the LTTE, a group of western countries wanted a resolution passed against Sri Lanka for the civilian deaths and other alleged rights violations by the army during the last stages of the operation. With the blood on the battlefield not still dry, Sri Lanka managed to snatch victory from the jaws of diplomatic defeat, with a resolution that praised the government for its humane handling of civilians and asserted faith in its abilities to bring about reconciliation." ( The Hindu)

In my humble opinion the Tamil people should be able to have their self-determination within the Unitary State of Sri Lanka.
Today after the end of LTTE Terrorism in 2009 the entire country is Ealam for our Tamil Bretheren., and we are all living in PEACE as one big happy family. The East and North should be never be put together again for the Common Good of Sri Lanka.
Its time also for the Tamils Community ( the silent majority of Tamils ) to show their HAND in peaceful co-existence.
