No amount of propaganda can charge \u2018war crimes\u2019 and indict people by creating hybrid \u2018war crimes tribunals\u2019 without following due process. There are rules of evidence that even the UNHRC head has to rein in on and his racism simply because he holds a global position needs to stop. Its all well and fine to be running at a tangent claiming \u2018genocide\u2019 but these allegations dressed with fancy words needs to produce corpus delicti. Where are the bodies for heavens sake? Where are even the skeletons? Look what happened to the 100,000 claimed to be dead in Kosovo\u2019s \u2018genocide\u2019 it turned out to be just a pitiful propaganda blitz to fool the world. LTTE\u2019s case is certainly no different for the same propagandists are at work. President Clinton assured the American people that as many as 100,000 people had been slaughtered. Later the figure was reduced to 10,000. In the end the figure turned out to be less than 2500 (two thousand five hundred) !!!<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>War crimes experts were called in from the West of course, they were to arrive and exhume \u2018hundreds of graves\u2019 \u2013 it was described as the world\u2019s worst genocide, plenty of tears were shed and quite a lot of candles were lit for the \u2018dead\u2019 too. And yes there were plenty of \u2018refugees\u2019 to be \u2018witnesses\u2019 with anonymity of course and this is where Sri Lanka\u2019s Office of the Missing Persons are going to really get upto mischief\u2026 concealing the truth and ensuring the truth doesn\u2019t come out.. all in the name of good governance of course. Turning to Kosovo, so plenty of stories unfolded.. the \u2018victims\u2019 spoke of \u2018indiscriminate killings\u2019 \u2018missing\u2019 loved one\u2019s \u2013 even if they held guns!<\/p>\n

\"failedUN\"<\/p>\n

Interestingly enough Kosovos \u2018witnesses\u2019 turned out to be Western media liars. Nothing was said of NATO\u2019s airstrikes that killed over 5000 people and not many human rights organizations that get their paychecks from the West demanded justice against NATO so can we expect western funded Sri Lankas\u2019 NGOs to behave any different?<\/p>\n

Just like Kosovo, Sri Lanka\u2019s case was all about \u2018holocausts\u2019 \u2018genocides\u2019 \u2018ethnic cleansing\u2019 \u2013 we are getting the hang of using these terms now\u2026 it gets repeated enough! Alas we forgot to mention the documentaries \u2013 the books \u2018counting the dead\u2019 the panel discussions all bringing in people giving third party data from who? Yep, you guessed right from LTTE sources\u2026 now would they give data to make the Sri Lanka army look the good guys? None of these goody reporters came out with Kosovo Liberation Army being trained by CIA and armed by West, none of them mentioned of India training LTTE and other militants either which nullifies Sri Lanka having an \u2018ethnic\u2019 problem. The problem is India and the terrorist was LTTE.<\/p>\n

5 international legal luminaries determined that Sri Lanka had not committed war crimes and their legal deliberations are available for the Government of Sri Lanka to study. Is their legal summaries to be accepted or will the GOSL accept the howls and wails and evidence-less rants by people associated with the LTTE or paid by vested interests to punish the Sri Lanka Armed Forces and the former Government because the demise of the LTTE ended a very lucrative time they were enjoying while LTTE were blowing up people and property.<\/p>\n

There was a wheels within wheels through the LTTE reign for the very sources that benefitted from LTTE are the ones now coming out into the open making wild allegations to punish those that ended their very comfortable lifestyle and agenda.<\/p>\n

However, if there is anything called justice in this world as we have not seen in the case of Kosovo and numerous other cases where the lying propaganda have fooled the world \u2013 Sri Lanka and Sri Lankans must now stand up and refuse to bow down to the bullying of any UN entity that is calling for hybrid or whatever obnoxious set ups without producing corpus delicti to substantiate their claims.<\/p>\n

We should not agree to any set up until the evidence is produced. The anonymous witnesses hiding their identity for 20 years has no legal basis to lock up people in prison and brand a country as committing war crimes. We should all refuse to accept any more of these theatrics by the UN who look the other way to all of the crimes committed by the US and West and happily endorses these crimes under the category of collateral damage while bringing out all the law books against the Asians and Africans only.<\/p>\n

We must all stand up and tell the UN that we will not accept any more of its discriminations and racism and illegal and biased justice system.<\/p>\n

UN has completely failed the world. It has no moral authority to point any finger leave alone take any country to a court and declare them war criminals. If this government subscribes to the immoral agenda of the UN the world will be laughing at the government for now even the ordinary masses across the world are beginning to realize the lies, false propaganda and disinformation that had fooled them to agree to illegal military interventions, bogus invasion of lands and occupation for all of which the ordinary citizens are having to pay the bills while the companies that instigated these occupations have landed them investment deals and are pocketing all the profits. We must all stand up and say no more.<\/p>\n
