"No peace, no war" may be better than the alternative
FOR a year and a half, Sri Lanka's peace process has been locked in an
ugly stalemate. In April 2003, the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam,
who had been waging a 20-year war for an independent Tamil homeland in
the north and the east of the island, withdrew from talks with the
government. Since then, a ceasefire agreed on a year earlier has held,
despite violations. Norwegian diplomats, who helped arrange it, have
expressed fears that the antagonists' "incredible complacency" masks a
"melting at the edges" of the frozen war. But neither side seems to
want to plunge into renewed conflict.
