Well analysed post mortem! There is a saying in tamil: Setthu ponavanukku joshyam partthu enna prayojanam? But,onething is sure,what these people SEW,they had rich HARVEST!

I have to respond to ttpian's rather naive comments. The Tamil saying noted about 'the meaningless meanderings on a dead person's horoscope' should not be quoted out of context. Not all deaths are equal. The death of a 'nominal' leader of a nation like Premadasa(even the Sinhalese nation) deserves scrutiny, when it is used as an example or as a weapon for anti-Tamil propaganda. Correspondent ttpian should also note that even Julius Caesar's "death" in 44 BC is still studied and analyzed for its relevance to history and politics. Sachi Sri Kantha

i render my sincere apology to the author! I was in fit of anger against the racists! My aim is not to bring down his (author's) exepctation:on other hand I am firm that the enemy can be taught with the same language!
