BBC continues to persecute 'Sri Lankan' Tamils

The moral brigade of the BBC, dispatches, has now 'exposed' a big scam with Primark. They found Child labour being used to produced Primark garments. All those 'child saviours' are also out in the West to add their $0.02 cents worth from their luxury comfy chairs. This has now led Primark to dump the suppliers in Tamil Nadu, South India.

Guess what? The children these great BBC guys found to have saved are happened to be Sri Lankan Tamil Refugees in prison like camps in Tamil Nadu. These people are the poorest of the poor escaping the murderous Sri Lankan army in Tamil areas of Sri Lanka. Incidentally this is the same Army which is being trained and supported by the Western governments and tacitly promoted by the western Media - including the BBC- as the good guys in Sri Lanka (see my other posts). BBC and the moral brigade in the west would keep stony silence when it comes to the basic denial of life to these kids by brutal Sri Lankan regime. But they will go to town with this so called "child labour". Pushing them to even more destitution in the process.

Thanks BBC for continuously persecuting the Sri Lankan Tamils. Life is already hell for these people in the camps. You would have now made it even worse with blocking one source of their income.

These ones in the Indian Refugee camps are the poorest section of our community. We who live in the west can help them out quite easily but another of your government's friendly ally the Indian regime would not let us do it. For them these refugees are political pawn in their Geo-political games.

Keep it up BBC continue to exploit the children of Sri Lankan Tamils!

BBC continues with excuses

Veteran reporter Frances Harrison is back to report on the targeting of civilians in Sri Lanka. See the link below:

So BBC kind of saying that Bombs are exploding in the south possibly to take revenge against the similar civilian killings in the North. That is an improvement.

Unfortunately BBC can't report from Kilinochchi because of the Sri Lankan government restrictions and verify the incidents and validate the civilian casualty figures, huh?

Give us a break BBC! There is another country in the world where the regime is hostile to the western governments and the western governments would like to get rid of this regime from that country. In that country even more restrictions exist on the western media. In fact the BBC itself is banned from that country. This country's name is Zimbabwe and Robert Mogabe is the regime leader.

BBC did not find the government restrictions a problem there. It reporters clandestinely go into Zimbabwe or to the neighbouring places and give wide coverage to the western public manufacturing a public opinion completely against Mogabe regime - Serving the interests of the western government anti-Mogabe foreign policy.

But the tiny Sri Lankan government can block the great BBC from finding ways to "verify these incidents in the north and validate the civilian casualty figures". Oh As per the Western governments this tiny little sinhala regime in Sri Lanka is considered friendly and no matter how much ruthless they are,the western governments would be sympathetic to them.

So being truly faithful to the morally bankrupt policies of the western powers BBC would continue to selectively report about Sri Lanka maintaining and fostering a picture in the west that Tamils are the villains and not victims. Then just to try and gain some moral high ground BBC would put up excuses like government restrictions for not adequately covering the plight of the northern civilian victims.

We know very well BBC, where your heart and soul are!

BBC can't change can it?

BBC is at it again. It report gives graphic details of how civilians were killed in Colombo due to the claymore bomb. See below:

Deadly blast hits Sri Lanka bus

At least 21 people have been killed in a bomb explosion targeting a bus in the Sri Lankan capital, Colombo.

Compare that with the coverage given to the claymore bombing in Mullaitivu.

'Six killed' by Sri Lankan army

'Six killed' is in single quote casting doubt about the fact. But 21 killed today is a fact and bold in the first paragraph. There is no way BBC is going to be truly and honestly on the side of the truth, is it?

Don't worry BBC you don't have to do this nominal coverage of killings in the north. Carry on with your cynical and complex propaganda to manufacture and maintain western public opinion that Tamils are the villains and not victims.

Personally, I will condemn both killings in fact any killing. Even though i do not have the power to stop the killings I will mourn for all the victims - specially the innocent ones. In the mean time, BBC you can continue with your selective reporting to reinforce the western governments morally bankrupt foriegn policy in Sri Lanka.

BBC tries to be balanced

This time BBC made an effort to file a report about the claymore attack in the north where Tamil Civilians were killed.

Thanks BBC and hope you will make real effort to be on the side of truth instead of vested interests of the western government.
