Sri Lanka War crimes probe: UN receives report on political, military liability
European org also provides scores of witness testimonies
Article by Shamindra Ferdinando
(COLOMBO The Island) A UN investigation team has obtained a comprehensive analysis of Sri Lanka’s accountability with regard to war crimes from the European Centre for Constitutional and Human Rights (ECCHR).
Among the high profile investigations undertaken by ECCHR is one on the conduct of the British army in Iraq as well as the accountability on the part of political leadership. The International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague recently reopened preliminary investigations into the liability of British military officials for the torture of detainees in Iraq.
Why do we need another Tamil group?
New Tamil Diaspora Org Called ‘Non Resident Tamils Of Sri Lanka’ Formed
Global News Centre
(COLOMBO) The Tamils started off with one Umbrella Group after the Mullivaaikkal Genocide, called Global Tamil Forum (GTF) in 2009. We came from all nooks and corners of the world to inaugurate it in Paris, but now it is an organisation without an umbrella. That group is now splintered into so many groups, dividing the Tamil community into many factions. Each of them have their own idea on how the Tamil issue in Sri Lanka is to be solved.

(CHICAGO) Near the end of Arlo Guthrie’s classic 1967 folk tale, Alice’s Restaurant, Guthrie sings these words:
“Can you imagine, three people walking in singing a bar of Alice’s Restaurant and walking out, they may think it’s an organization. And can you imagine fifty people a day, I said fifty people a day, walking in singing a bar of Alice’s Restaurant and walking out, well friends, they may think it’s a movement.
The Scottish Referendum in a nutshell
What does devolution mean? Scotland is not independent although it has control over some of its affairs through its elected parliament.
Ralph E. Stone Global News Centre
(SAN FRANCISCO) My wife and I just returned from a week’s stay in Edinburgh, which was shortly after the Scottish independence vote. The Scots voted to stay with England 55 to 45 percent. There was no rioting in the street over the vote results.
The “no” campaign always led in the polls but the “yes” campaign was gaining ground. Then Prime Minister David Cameron, Ed Millbrand, and Nick Clegg, the leaders of the three major British parties, signed a pledge to devolve more powers to Scotland, if the Scots rejected independence. It is not clear how much this “pledge” effected the vote, but it might have stopped the growing support for the “yes” campaign.
Scholarship for a student from Gaza to study in the UK (Rana’s Story)
The Global Right to Education Project (based in LSE and other London Universities including Imperial College) helps underprivileged students, in conflict zones, to maximise their educational opportunities abroad. The vision is for students to contribute back to their communities.
Global News Centre
(LONDON) Rana Alshami is from Gaza and has received an offer to study a Master’s degree in Law at a top UK University: the School of Oriental and Asian Studies (SOAS) in September 2015. Her neighbourhood of Khan Younis was directly struck during the current conflict in Gaza, and she has had to flee her home.
There is only one obstacle preventing her from fulfilling her university place; she does not have the financial means to cover the tuition fee (£16,425). Funding and bursaries are unfortunately scarce; hence she will also need an additional amount to cover her maintenance fees and travel costs (at least £7,088) which will be raised separately. We will be raising money in two phases: phase 1 (tuition fees); and phase 2 (maintenance and travel) - please see ‘Official Campaign Letter’ for details.

The return of George Orwell and Big Brother’s war on Palestine, Ukraine and the truth
For the first time since 1945, a neo-Nazi, openly anti-Semitic party controls key areas of state power in a European capital. No Western European leader has condemned this revival of fascism in the borderland through which Hitler’s invading Nazis took millions of Russian lives.

(SYDNEY) The other night, I saw George Orwells’s ‘1984’ performed on the London stage. Although crying out for a contemporary interpretation, Orwell’s warning about the future was presented as a period piece: remote, unthreatening, almost reassuring. It was as if Edward Snowden had revealed nothing, Big Brother was not now a digital eavesdropper and Orwell himself had never said, “To be corrupted by totalitarianism, one does not have to live in a totalitarian country.”
Britain spawned atrocities, political tension, turmoil against Tamils since the first capture and occupation in 1815 to- date
British-trained STF, which is a full-fledged military outfit under the SL Police and was directly engaged in acts of genocide in the East as well as in Vanni during the war, has started arbitrary arrests in Jaffna peninsula during the night time.

Since every organisation and Eelam activists including TNA have struck in a big wall of rock in their efforts in trying to have negotiated peace settlement for the Tamil’s long standing ethnic problem, because Mahinda Rajapaksa and his Government has told that Sri Lanka is a Sinhalese country. Even after that TNA had several rounds of talks more than ten. Mahinda even failed to attend about four meetings and cheated TNA.
Organizers of the meeting fail to submit any peace solution to the Tamils. Therefore Tamils final chance to request the world leaders to have a referendum whether Tamils want to live united with Sinhalese or to go separately? because they are leaders who are requesting Tamil leaders to go for a negotiated settlement.
Tamil woman raped by Sri Lankan soldiers to be deported
Weeks after William Hague’s summit on sexual violence in conflict, the British government is to deport a Tamil woman back to Sri Lanka, despite claims she was repeatedly raped by Sri Lankan soldiers.
Channel 4 News
(LONDON) The Tamil woman came to the UK in 2010, soon after the end of the country’s civil war, and says that she was repeatedly raped while held in detention by Sri Lankan soldiers before she left the country.
Despite serious concerns that she is at risk of rape at the hands of authorities if she is forcibly returned to Sri Lanka, because of her previous involvement in the LTTE rebel group and her previous abuse, her application for asylum has been turned down.
UK Man Wins Court Victory Over BBC for 9/11 Coverup Broadcast
BBC’s assertions from 911 are pushed into the light.
Tony Rooke refused to pay a TV license fee because the BBC intentionally misrepresented facts about the 9/11 attacks, he alleged. It is widely known that the BBC reported the collapse of World Trade Center Building 7 over 20 minutes before it occurred. WTC 7 was a 47-story skyscraper that was not hit by a plane on 9/11 but collapsed at free-fall speed later that day.
