How Sri lanka can have a seat when they recruit children and bomb children

Even the commissioner of UNHRC more towards on LTTE direction.

This time round Sri Lanka is seeking re-election with the CFA abrogated and facing a barrage of international criticisms from some powerful members of the UN and human rights organisations worldwide and also from within the United Nations itself for what they see as the persistent violation of human rights, disappearances, attacks on journalists and threats to the media and the perceived support of the government to paramilitary groups operating particularly in the north and east.

A Tamil man was abducted by the military, at a checkpoint, somewhere in northeastern Sri Lanka recently, witnessed by many civilians. His wife inquired at every nearby military camp, but they denied having or ever detaining him. Someone advised her to contact a paramilitary group. They work closely with the government, she was told, and so could help. Desperate, she did. (This would be the EPDP or TMVP.) They noted her details and promised to investigate.

A few days later, members of this group abducted the woman and raped her.

Her husband is still missing, presumed killed by the military.

Seeing no other option, she told her story to a human rights organization.

The point should be obvious. The western powers and their human rights groups would have nothing to complain about if the Rajapakse regime did not treat its citizens - mostly the Tamils, but also Muslims and, increasingly, Sinhalese who resist - with systematic brutality. For the case of this woman and her husband is not isolated. It is not something 'collateral' that occurs, inevitably, regrettably, in the course of fighting a war on terror.

Sri Lankans never descended from India. Do you know the oldest man in Asia is found in Sri Lanka?? (Balangoda man)

if tamil kings ruled and tamils were indigenous than sinhalese why sri lanka was calleed HELA diva? sinhala nation ?
