The much talked about Resolution by The UNHRC is, as anticipated, attracting lot of sound bites.

A sane Group calls for India to vote for it censuring Sri Lanka , while another motley group including Salman Khurshid who hums and haws(probably the after effects of his NGO scam!), who cite India's security concerns.

Surprising fact is that Dr.Subramanian Swamyhas joined the motley group that wants the Resolution to be voted against.

Swamy, at his initiative best' met Assistant Secretary of State for South and Central Asia Robert Blake and impressed on him that the Resolution would help the revival of the LTTE and asked the Obama Administration to undertake bilateral consultations with Colombo to work out a consensus on the draft of the alleged human rights violations in Sri Lanka proposed to be tabled in UNHRC in Geneva.

'India's Janatha Party leader was apprising the media of his talks with Washington officials.

“Under no circumstances the resolution has any indication that President Rajapaksa and others are guilty of war crimes. Whatever has to be done has to be done by the Government of Sri Lanka and not by international agencies. The demand for international agencies essentially comes from supporters of LTTE'.

1.How does an enquiry would revive LTTE?

As I understand, so do most about the Killing ways of the LTTE and it is its lust for blood had weakened the case of the Sri Lankan Tamils.

2.How come the bilateral talks would not spur the activities of LTTE, if a motion could reawaken it?

The US sponsored resolution on issues related to Sri Lanka has now been taken up by the United Nations Human Rights Commission for discussion. Shenali Waduge reviews that the UNHRC Resolution against Sri Lanka is nothing about “accountability” “pace of implementation” or any of the gibberish international statements claims to project.

If so, despite resolutions against Israel on “accountability” the UNHRC has done nothing against Israel. Instead Israel has broken ties with UNHRC completely. If every nation in the UN has equal status, or rather is supposed to have equal status, what’s all this bullying with regard to Sri Lanka?......3.If the Resolution does not, in one para the Sri Lankan states that this is gibberish and has nothing to censure' why Does Sri Lanka oppose it?

4.He states as no action against Israel has been taken after a motion,why pass a Resolution against Sri Lanka?

He adds that all states 'must be treated equally'?

The Text of The UNHRC Resolution on Sri Lanka....
Dr.Swamy in his maniacal aversion to Karunaidhi, must avoid echoing Sri Lanka's senseless arguments.

In this process every on e seems to forget the issue of Tamil Genocide.
