Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5Its about time a protest was organised I hope of the left and anti-war people will show up.
excellent that someone is taking the bother to organise something like this. See you there!
The situation has taken a turn for the worse as this video on the bbc website shows. Some of the scenes are quite disturbing. Clearly the Sri Lankan Army are stepping up their campaign to wipe out the LTTE and in doing show now concern or remorse for Tamil civilians. This is a genocidal war. The mounting death toll - which can't be properly verified because the refusal of the Sri Lankan government to allow foreign journalists access to the region - must now exceed that of the recent conflict in Gaza or indeed the combined daily death toll in Iraq and Afghanistan. But there is nowhere near the same level of coverage in the media. Everyone who has participated in the protests against the slaughter of the people of Gaza, or those of Iraq and Afghanistan, should try their best to attend this protest. Spread the word
The Sri Lankan Army has launched its “final assault” on the tiny 21 square kilometre area of land where some 100,000 Tamil civilians, plus the remaining fighters of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE), are besieged. The government of President Mahinda Rajapakse, dares to call this hell hole a “safe zone” and claims to be conducting a “rescue operation” to save the population, whom he describes as hostages of the Tigers.

At 5pm on the 22nd of April, shouting 'Not a rupee, not a bullet, to the Rajapaska government', protesters gathered in front of the Indian Embassy at a picket called by the 'Stop the Slaughter of Tamils' campaign.
In the knowledge that the assault on Tamils in Sri Lanka was escalating during the moment of our protest, we shouted angrily, shaming the Indian government due to the fact that they are complicit in these unspeakable horrors being visited upon the Tamil people of Sri Lanka.
During the protest, Cillian of the Socialist Party spoke about against anti-democratic, capitalist and racist regime of Sri Lanka, as well as all the international imperialist powers that assist the regime. He urged the need for mass struggle internationally to stop the war, a war that disgracefully is barely being reported around the world.
You could hear a pin drop as a member of the Tamil community movingly addressed the crowd, detailing his despair after speaking to a family member trapped in the war-zone in Sri Lanka. Neither he, nor his family had eaten for days.
We handed in a letter of protest and plan to have further meetings and actions. Contact the Socialist Party for further details. Check out the campaign website - www.stoptheslaughteroftamils.org.
