DEEPEST SYMPATHIES TO BBC: DEATH OF SP TAMIL SELVAN

Apino Dannachess Maryland USA

It was not until last Friday night that I learned of your dear colleague TAMIL SELVANS' tragic death. Coming as it did without warning; it must have been a great shock to you. I want you all to know how very sorry I am, and to send my sincere sympathy.

My heart goes to Roland Burke, Dumitha Lutra and the Asian news team of BBC (Blind Biasedcasting Corporation) on the loss of this "Peace Dove" that you adore so much. I have read many news items of yours highlighting the peaceful exploits of this person. I really like the way you portray them as "Separatist Movement", "Freedom Fighters" and "Rebels". I can only imagine how you feel right now.

What a contrast this person is when compared to the "ISLAMIST TERRORISTS" like the ones who kidnapped your dear colleague Alan Johnston. I hope this tragic event will not deter BBC' in its campaign to differentiate between "TERRORIST" and other peaceful organizations such "Freedom fighters", "Rebels" and "Separatists".

I also take this opportunity convey my deepest sympathies to your friends the Norwegian peace negotiators, the Amnesty International and various NGO's at this time of loss.

This is indeed a heinous crime against humanity committed by the democratically elected "hawkish" government of the majority Sinhalese community: another victim of ultranationalist weapons of mass destructions.

Yours Sincerely
