President Rajapaksa deserves Nobel Peace prize

Jonathan Kay writing his comments to the National Post newspaper of Canada, stresses that giving the Nobel Peace prize to Barack Obama is ridiculous and suggests that the only nation that fits the bill is Sri Lanka.

The reason for that is the campaign by President Mahinda Rajapaksa against the LTTE. This conflict has taken nearly 100,000 lives since it began three decades ago. But President Rajapaksa ended it definitively at one stroke, incapacitating virtually the entire Tiger leadership.

It is one of the only times in the history of modern warfare that a guerrilla/terrorist movement has been utterly destroyed in such a fashion. Overnight, war became a stranger to Sri Lanka, Kay said.
