    fazeel Thursday, 12 May 2011 08:50 AM

    ila Wednesday, 11 May 2011 04:43 PM

    no sruprise. You made it easier for the people to label the government as a democratically elected terrorist. Remember, one of the reason why many countries listed LTTE as terrorist was their inclusion sucide bombers. May be pshychologist can help to resolver this problem before it become real.

    Mahee Wednesday, 11 May 2011 04:07 PM
