The war in Sri Lanka is at its end-game, the moment when the civilian population is most at risk. For background, see the previous post.It is understandable, from a tactical point of view, for the government to want to end this decades-long conflict with some finality.

All Tamils are not Tigers. Say it again, all Tamils are not Tigers. It's a simple as that.
