sovereignty of the country

Does sovereignty of the country mean genocide of a race and the international community should watch it?

The Para Sinhalayas, who came from LaLa land aren?t just funny they are so desperate these days that they can?t defend themselves. They know the activities of their terrorist government, therefore they attack the foreigners, who speak the truth about state sponsored killing, bombing and abductions.

When the HRW released a report about the LTTE, the Sinhalese were praising the HRW, the Suddhas and dollar Kakkas as saviors of Sinhala race. Now, when the same HRW is accusing the Sinhala terror state for the state terrors against minority Tamils, all Sinhala Buddhist chauvinists are crying foul and attacking the Suddhas.

This is so pathetic, if Sri Lanka is a democratic state where the Buddhism is practiced and if these allegations are false, then why can?t they just let the Human Rights monitors to come.

During the apartheid, many white people joined the Blacks and fought for their rights, even now many Americans are fighting against their own government for the abuse of Iraqi prisoners, but the Sinhalese will support their government as long as the victims are Tamils.

The Sinhala racism is part of the Sinhala identity and no one can change it. Only the ?two state? solution will solve this problem. There is no other option.

( Para= foreign) :)

Don't worry UN, MR will take care of LTTE silently - piece by piece. Come to SL in 4 years and you will see all Tamils, Sinhalese and Burgers living together in peace, just like as it is now in Colombo and South.

At this rate there wont be much as Sri Lankan in a few years.! there will be civil riots and wars all over the country.. people will be looting and fighting each other for food and to exist!

Give priority to addressing the most pressing human rights violations, both acute and chronic, particularly those that put life in imminent peril
Focus attention on those who are at risk and vulnerable on multiple fronts
Pay equal attention to the realization of civil, cultural, economic, political, and social rights, including the right to development and
Measure the impact of its work through the substantive benefit that is accrued, through it, to individuals around the world.
OHCHR, a department of the United Nations Secretariat, is guided in its work by the mandate provided by the General Assembly in resolution 48/141, the Charter of the United Nations, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and subsequent human rights instruments, the 1993 Vienna Declaration and Programme of Action, and the 2005 World Summit Outcome Document.

The 'high priority investigation' has been going on for one year, yet, result is no near. The govt either hides the truths or postpones them from being uncovered as long as possible.
The government has said that it will order a 'clean and independent' probe into the killings of the 11 men and four women who worked for AAH.

'We can't come to conclusions right now but if the story is correct, it will be a very high priority investigation,' Human Rights Minister Mahinda Samarasinghe told the French news agency, AFP.

The Director-General of AAH, Benoit Miribel, said that the charity had not suffered such a loss in its 25 years of existence.

The country is divided in these lines.

(1)patriots who genuinely want peace - Sinhalese, Tamils, Muslims and Burghers

(2)Pseudo-Patriots who pretend to talk on behalf of human rights violations - INGO/NGO dollar kaakas of the Sinhalese (Sunanda deshapriya, Kumar Rupasinghe et al), Mano ganeshan, Ranil and the losing UNP pumped up with Mangala (SLFP (M)

(3)Terrorists - Freedom Fighters - LTTE

(4)Patriotic Terrorists - Rauf hakim and the Jihadis

Well other than (1) who is really keen to keep the country as one? No one

Do these HRW really love us? Dollar Kaakas love it

UN/HRW/AI the laughing stock on the cats paw of the Developed countries

When the wife runs away with the bin man and complaints her husband for her share in the divorce settlement is more likely.

Kamni, please tell us who exactly is the wife in here ?

Don't fall into your own mess and get trapped!
