despite egregious and continuing rights violations, us sidles up to lanka

dec 7th, 2009

100,000 tamils were incarcerated and at least 70,000 still are, six months after the war ended.

india has no leverage whatsoever to demand justice for the civilians who are still in concentration camps -- and some were shot trying to escape.

the US, as usual, despite the palaver about human rights, has no problem ignoring them when convenient.

Hi,

The advertisement in the middle of text is irritating. Can you do something about it?
