SRI LANKA Bombing
I was impressed with the BBC's coverage of the bombing in Sri Lanka they presented very detailed information on where the bombing occurred (Ampara) how many casualties (11 dead, 36 wounded) and had an idea of who was responsible for the blast.
They tied it to a rebel group called Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam as they had been in civil war for 20 years because they want an independent state for minority Tamils in the north and east. The Sri Lanka military seemed convinced that this group was responsible for the bombing because of upcoming election on Saterday.
The main question I raise is why bomb civilian in a public are. My only problem with the article is that the motives of the bombing aren't made clear enough nor is the reason for choosing that location made clear.
