It is so obvious that GOSL has been involved in acts of genocide and that it is systemic in the island. Ban Ki Moon described the human tragedy suffered by the Tamils as the worst witnessed in any conflict anywhere in this world. HRC showed due process in Iraq and Kosovo. GOSL/LTTE War Crime allegations have to be investigated. Given the evidence, HRC has no option but to accede to an INDEPENDENT investigation. After 61 years it is clear - we need a Kosovo like two-state resolution for peace.

the two conflicts are entirely different in nature and historical causation. attempts to draw comparisons are futile at best. sri lanka is a sovereign state with full legitimate rights to combat a terrorist insurgency. When Al-Qaida attacks in the US and we hunt them down, we don't compare to any other conflict. it is very clear that terrorism needs to be rooted out.
What is the substance of your argument? That it's okay to disregard claims of war crimes committed in Sri Lanka, but not in Gaza? Israel is a sovereign state, just like Sri Lanka.
Sri Lanka combated LTTE terrorism within the boundaries of Sri Lankan sovereignty.
Must consider Palestine as a sovereign state with a long history, where Gaza stipe is recognized internationally as part of the Palestinian territories.
i didn't say that. i said, you cannot compare the two conflicts, they are different in nature. Israel is a state that was created by Britain (the cause of most problems in the world today) and the US on Palestinian land in 1947. That doesn't mean I support Hamas and the other terrorists who operate in that area. Israel has the right to make sure the terrorists who attack them are dealt with. Terorrists are terrorists, there are no good terrorists and bad terrorists.
