It is a shame that in almost every conflict around the world right now that there is such a large loss of civilians , But If the radical wackos would not hold civilians for use as human shields , this would not be happening to this extent ! The Tamil tigers are just following in the footsteps of the pros of the Human shield , Hamas , The Taliban now use human Shields also ! It is the reason why they call it terrorism ! It is the reason why we must fight the terrorists !

The United Nations has described the situation in northern Sri Lanka as a "bloodbath" after reports of heavy civilian casualties at the weekend.
UN spokesman in Colombo Gordon Weiss said more than 100 children died during the "large-scale killing of civilians".
On Sunday, a doctor working in the war zone said at least 378 people were killed by fierce shelling.
Meanwhile, the military spokesman for the Tamil Tiger rebels, Ilanthirayan, has been seriously wounded in fighting.
Mr Ilanthirayan sustained heavy injuries in an attack by the Sri Lankan army on Sunday, the pro-rebel website TamilNet said.
The Sri Lankan defence ministry said a senior officer of the rebels' sea wing also died in fighting last week.
