[edit] Violence in December / January

No mention was made to the killing of innocent civilians during the same period. Many of it blamed on the military. Nor any mention was made to the 30 odd missing person’s complaints made at the Human Rights Commission. Again all the missing persons reports suggested abduction by Sri Lanka Military.

Please bear in mind this is an Encyclopeida and not a platform to justify the appalling atrocities being committed by the Sri Lankan military against the Tamil community.

do you have conclusive proofs??

AGAIN SIGN YOUR COMMENTS and do not make claims without evidence, you will just get ignored.A complaint isn't the same as a conviction btw.Pubuman 20:04, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

Following is the link to the full statement released by the European Sri Lanka Monitoring Mission (SLMM) with regards to recent incidents of violence in Sri Lanka.

The statement clearly states that the Sri Lankan Military has carried out “war crimes”. --82.40.185.111 11:24, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
The statement alledges that. It doesnt "clearly say" anything. Either find some proof or shutup and get lost. OzLawyer
This article is loaded with pro-government propaganda and POV. Just in the intro it uses the word "deadliest terrorist." Elalan 02:17, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Terrorist

I have changed the "terrist" tag and have added "proscribed as a terrorist organisation by 32 countries". Please try to keep it NPOV and avoid such tagging. It is therefore best to write it as I have written (That is not my strandard but its how its writen everywhere). If you want you can add the countries but I thought that some would dissagree with it.
