#1 Maybe Human Rights Watch would be happy if the Sri Lankan army started to train their guys how to hug Mario's boys to death?

#2 I'm a "map guy" - I want to see a map of an area I'm reading about. This is the best one I've found so far. You can click on any portion of the large map, and a small-scale map of the clicked area shows up on the right. So far, I haven't been able to find any of the small villages mentioned in recent articles, but I'll keep looking.

Sri Lanka seems to be deadly serious about eliminating the LTTE completely. The Tamil leadership is losing the war on all fronts, including the support of the people. It's all over except for the final battle or two.
