We could have lambasted the IC and the UN if not for the fact that Sri Lanka's mere existence depends on the aide from the IC. We are a beggar state.

Mahathir Mohommed of Malaysia showed the 'nosy pokers' who were probing human rights in Malaysia as to where their limits were. Malaysia was not depended on foreign aide so Mahathir could do it. Can we?

The white vans did not take the passengers to court. The passengers simply went to their deaths in the white vans!

Article: 'Take us to courts' - say prisoners
