AtulaSiriwardane · May 11, 2009

The new ‘Safe Zone’ in Mulaitivu came under attack today with both the military and the LTTE blaming each other for the incident amidst reports of civilian casualties. The BBC said at least 300 civilians were killed.

Totally cooked up story.Look carefully, it just burn the lorry and took a picture. May be ltte killed some people or army killed terrors, then they took the pictures and sent to TRO, then this news lack BBC put it on air.(because they were wordless after US airstrike afgan and killed 150 civilians) Now they have given good news to taste.(They realy taste this news without any shame).

Is this the reason behind government not letting the free media personnel and foreign journalist not enter the safe zone to cover the activities.And the funniest part is that this is being called a humanitarion operation...

International media

the nature of international media is just to look for hot news.
but what is happening now is very important to all of us, Sinhala Muslim Tamil or ham Burger who have a Sri Lankan ID.
Tamil foolish Monkeys With AK47 era is going to end ( LTTE or TFMWAK47).
and the dumb Canadian and UK tamils can come to Wellawatte Bambalapitiya and eat wada with their fellow tamils insted of fooling Sri Lankan nationalty on froign soil.
Because if they keep acting ike this the "White Guys" will think me also as Osama Dumb Ladin Type. Al Jazeera needs to tighten it's bolts and look for Isrial buying Palistine land or something ..
