Good on you, for showing gratitude to the servicemen who helped to liberate the nation from the most brutal terrorists. Good on you for having the courage to hold such an event in a country that has produced some of the most shameless individuals that has helped the LTTE with fabricated lies like the 40,000 deaths story.
