Sinhalese should learn to accept the legitimate right of Tamils in the North-East to rule themselves. It should be also understood that violence begets more violence. Culture of violence and war will lead to poverty and destruction. The only remedy would be to stop this unwinnable war and get back to granting the Tamils the right to rule themselves in the North-East War can never bring peace.
