Shenali D Waduge Secular tab is another western slogan flogged to take away, denigrate and dilute countries that have historical past and are trying their best to protect that past.

Shenali D Waduge  So LTTE is the sole representative of the Tamil people? Can those who say so explain why LTTE and its leader have killed the following Tamil people?

Shenali D Waduge There are continuous reference being made to LTTE cadres as Prisoners of War. This is legally incorrect.

Shenali D Waduge It’s rather a precarious situation giving new meaning to ‘don’t bite the hand that feeds you’.

Shenali D Waduge There is no ethnic problem in Sri Lanka.
