---------------------------------------------------------------------------Muslims worst affected by terrorism: LTTE terrorists attacked Muslim community and no any other community than Muslim in the Eastern and Northern Provinces was attacked during the last three decades said Healthcare and Nutrition Minister Nimal Siripala de Silva. The Minister said so at a mass rally held at the Al-Adhan Muslim Vidyalaya, Badulla, recently. The Health Deputy Minister Vadivel Suresh and several Provincial Council members also participated. (http://www.dailynews.lk/2010/01/01/news32.asp)
*****
"The Muslims are the forgotten party in the Sri Lankan conflict. They have never resorted to violence to achieve their aims and so have never been properly consulted on how to end the conflict. With the new war in the east, they again are caught in the crossfire. Muslims once more face serious insecurity and concerns about Sinhalese nationalism.

The government needs to address the Muslim issue more directly, instead of merely manipulating their concerns for political advantage. However, that requires a comprehensive plan to develop a political settlement to the conflict, which at present is a very distant possibility.

In the absence of serious attention to Muslim concerns from either Tamil militant leaders or the government, Muslim communities will continue their own efforts to maintain security and political stability with little assistance from outside.

The best way to deal with these tensions is for the government to demonstrate a serious commitment to a political solution that for once would include the very genuine concerns of Sri Lanka’s Muslims."
