Freedom Fighters or Terrorists?

I'm talking about the Tamil people of Sri Lanka. Many people haven't even heard of the crazy **** that's going on down their. One point of view is basically the Minority population (Tamils) support a terrorist group called the Tamil Tigers, and the population should be "cleansed" of these civilians and their guerrilla. The second view is that the Majority population (Sinhalese) are oppressing the Minority group, and the President creates law criminalizing the Tamils for being Tamil. He started a raging Genocide with all sorts of weapons and attacks (ex. tanks, chemical weapons, hanging, rape). To summarize this it is either terrorists vs. government OR freedom fighters/rebel group vs. government initiated genocide. What do you think?
