War crimes in Sri Lanka

This page is documenting allegations that have so far found no significiant coverage -- all coverage so far has been passing. Human Rights Watch and International Crisis Group issue dozens of reports each year on obscure topics that never extend much beyond that (including the veracity of Henry Lee Lucas' confessions for example). The People's Tribunal has had hearings on US intervention in Brazilian Amazon, etc. as well suggesting the insignificant nature of its hearings. It's also an interest group and thus cannot be considered significant. The UN Security Court has rejected these allegations and has not referred this case to their court. Other Human Rights Courts have refused to rule in any way in regards to these allegations also.

This is a topic that is significant to only a minority extremist group. Also there are two articles already to deal with these issues -- Human Rights in Sri Lanka and Allegations of state terrorism in Sri Lanka. I'm not sure how many articles we need on these events especially when it is all but forgotten outside of certain interest groups. BlueLotusLK (talk) 08:44, 21 July 2010 (UTC)
