International war crimes probe needed in Sri Lanka – Japan Times
[TamilNet, Monday, 08 June 2009, 02:10 GMT]
Noting the civilian casualty list in Sri Lanka’s offensive against the Tamil Tigers “is long and growing” and the “disturbing” evidence has emerged from the warzone, the Japan Times Monday joined calls for a “complete, unvarnished international” investigation into alleged war crimes. “No government or rebel group must believe it is immune from the rule of law,” the paper said, adding: “If the government is telling the truth, it should have nothing to fear from an investigation.” The editorial comes as Japan sent a special envoy to Sri Lanka to discuss the plight of 300,000 Tamils interned in militarised camps.

Ah yes, this enquiry will come as soon as the enquiries on Japanese genocidal attacks and gang rapes of Chinese civilians, Cambodian government abuses in defeating Pol-Pot, the allied armies' attacks on German and Japanese civilians including the two nuclear bombs and carpet bombing of German cities, and the American attacks on Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan killing millions of civilians are finalised.
The Sri Lankan government has no need to explain itself to neo-colonial foreigners in regards to actions it has taken to protect its people from terrorists funded by these same foreigners. Mind your own bloody business. We should deport more of this scum.
