For every #SriLankan who saw protestors at #GGG being assaulted by the #military & said "if they are doing this in #Colombo, can you imagine what happened to #Tamils in the #North & #East?" ENOUGH! There is no need to imagine, we know! 1/8
There are enough videos, films, still photographs, eye witness testimony, survivor testimony #UN reports, & other expert reports to clearly lay out what happened in #Mullivaikkal & before, was #CrimesAgainstHumanity, #WarCrimes & #Genocide. You chose not to believe! 2/8
There are 100's of people who died getting that information of #WarCrimes out of the #WarZone. Too many #journalists & #activists were killed, attacked, jailed, #tortured & exiled trying to disseminate that information, because you chose not to believe. 3/8
Right now, there are 1000's of #Tamils living just 340.5KM away from you, who are having their land grabbed, being arrested, threatened with #torture, or being harassed for asking for their #rights, by the #SriLanka #Military, because you chose not to believe! 4/8
Watch Read itjpsl.com/reports/kamal-… @itjpsl follow @JDSLanka and ask yourselves why you chose not to believe? 5/8
Because you thought it would never happen to you? Or because #Tamils deserved it? A #GalleFace protestor is on video saying the #SriLanka #Army had to be on drugs to assault them because they are from the same village. So attacking #Tamils is ok because they don't belong? 6/8
Now that you know what the #SriLanka #military does in the #North & #East what are you going to do about it? Are you going to call for #accountability of the army whose faces are clearly visible in #Mullivaikkal videos & those who gave the orders to commit #MassAtrocities? 7/8
Or are you going to stand with the great protector of #WarCriminals #RanilWickremesinghe and let those who gave orders to kill #Tamils continue to give orders to #assault you? 8/8

This a thread from friend in #Colombo #SriLanka who tried to get 2nd #AstraZeneca/covisheild dose yesterday. #LKA #VaccinationDrive is for the rich & powerful first!

"The 14th started on a innocuous note. We're all in travel restriction, can't step out of our house-well & good
"Then around 1030am I hear on the grapevine that vaccinations are taking place at the town hall... okay... I've had the first round and I'm theoretically due for the second round within the next four weeks so I braved arrest and went there with my vaccination card in hand..
Joined the queue and waited. Whilst waiting, I realised that this queue was not going anywhere. While we were standing there, a whole lot of people were being taken in completely ignoring the queue. A gentleman behind me in the queue went up to the security....
