The crimes the LTTE committed against us Sri Lankans(which include Sinhalese, Tamils, Muslims, Burghers,etc)definitely outnumbers all those war crimes,Allahu alam. I'm not saying there were no war crimes, as Tinker pointed out both sides had their share of evil and atrocities. Today the war maybe over but I can say there must be hardly any Lankans who remain untouched by all those years of horror. Honestly to date the sound of air planes flying at night gives me the creeps(memories of the air raids) as do sudden loud explosions. Only those of us who lived through it all can, at least to a certain extent,understand how and why things happened the way they did!
