The Soldier and the Child

[March 30, Colombo, Sri Lanka Guardian]
They walk hand in hand
On Freedom's Beach
A child save and secure
Freed from Tiger claws
By a gallant brave soldier
Who ensured for sure
The child's safe future
And others of her people.
The child, a Tamil hope
The soldier a means to it.
-Sri Lanka Guardian

Under the LTTE-TNA sway, any Tamil who was too friendly with the sinhalese authorities were target as traitors. Similarly, and Sinhalese army or police who tried to be too friendly with the Tamils were eliminated. Let us hope that when the LTTE-TNA is eliminated, a different dynamic could come into being.
