The increased Tamil student population in the unversities, computer institutes and technical institutes are another target of the LTTE to spread their ideology. Everybody wants to see a solution to the social conflict which is the main issue, but terrorism which started as a means to an end of the larger issue has become an end by itself for Prabakaran who knows no other means of governance. This ruthless terrorism that has already taken a massive toll of the lives, properties and the country's finances, has now become an impediment to the resolution of the larger issue. Similarly more and more factors are adding more and more fuel to the fire. We have to first accept the fact that conflict is an inevitable aspect of life.
People respond to conflict either by habit or by choice.
It is possible to change habitual response and exercise intelligent choices. By responding to conflict creatively it is possible to bring about a constructive solution to a conflict. In the process there are bound to be dissenting views expressed, though aiming at the same goal. In the situation we are presently experiencing in Sri Lanka, unfortunately more confusion is added to the problem with inflammatory allegations being levelled against persons expressing dissenting views, and invoking violence against them, which again is terrorism. What beats one's comprehension is the manner in which state controlled media, with impunity, is instigating blue murder against those who offer constructive criticism.
