The Tigers are defeated. Their use of civilians to delay their inevitable downfall proves that they are nothing but a group of inhuman savages who have forfeited any claim to power or acceptance into the world of civilized humanity.
It is tragic that they care so little for their own people. It is time for this decades old tragedy to reach its conclusion.
Sri Lanka must stay the course and end this once and for all regardless of the human suffering it causes. If they fail to do so, the Tigers will simply reform, and the suffering over time will be even greater.
