Air Force evacuate civilians

President Mahinda Rajapaksa in his May 19 speech before Parliament announcing the end of the war, emphatically stated what every Sri Lankan or even any foreigner who has spent any amount of time in this country knows to be the truth: namely, that "The war against the LTTE is not a war against Tamil people."

One of the illustrations of this is the conduct of the Armed Forces themselves towards the civilians whom they were rescuing.
