He’s a rich kid, obviously highly spoilt but it doesn’t take away from the fact that his father has saved the taxpayers in America billions of dollars

Aney Suma, media is believed only when it suits YOUR narrative right? If it doesnt suit you then its rubbish. If it suits you, then its Gods word. What have you done for the Tamil ppl Suma other than sit and tweet inflammatory info to burn RW house? Joker.

Notes from a habeas corpus case, Vavuniya 23.02.23. On Thursday, in a dusty courtroom, a judge delivered a damning verdict. Softly spoken, he called each of the three women to the front. Kanthi was first to stand up. She was in tears. One by one the judge’s orders were identical.

We join #Tamils in #NorthEast #SriLanka in unreservedly condemning the #Rajapaksa goon violence unleashed on peaceful protesters agitating for #GotaGoHome2022. Doctors in #Killinochi #Mullaitivu held placards against violence. @TLHumanRights @USAmbSL @State_SCA @USIP @UN_HRC

Not only did Sri Lanka commit many of the same atrocities 13 years ago as Russia today, including the targeting of hospitals and shelters, the perpetrators continue to enjoy impunity and are in charge. Sri Lanka’s “vocal support” would ring pretty hollow.

.@HRCSriLanka has been downgraded from A to B status by Global Alliance for Natl HR Institutions (GANHRI). Reasons: process of appt, i.e. result of 20th amendment, not effectively addressing critical HR issues & lack of pluralism & diversity of members.

Congratulations Amb #AlainaTeplitz on your appointment as A/S Admin @StateDept. Thank you for your outstanding service as Amb @USEmbSL during testing times in #SriLanka. @SecBlinken #TamilAmericans @State_SCA
Pleased to welcome Ambassador Alaina Teplitz as the new Assistant Secretary for Administration at the @StateDept. Ambassador Teplitz’s extensive career in the foreign service and knowledge of management, data use, and risk management will be instrumental in leading this bureau.
#TamilAmericans #USTAG Mourn the passing of #SouthAfrica #ANC figure Hon. #EbrahimEbrahim. Friend of #Tamils, Former Dep.Minister, Member of Parliament, he visited #SriLanka many times and worked to bring dignified peace in #SriLanka. Heartfelt condolences to family and comrades.
To a mother/father a son is a son, a daughter is a daughter. The world should condemn the double standards of the Sri Lankan government. Remembering loved ones is a right not a privilege.

Great to meet with people at the Facebook campus. Had some interesting conversations regarding facebook’s role in stemming hate speech and Sinhala Buddhist chauvinism

“#Tamil victims of conflict-related torture have a problem about reporting to the Commission. This could explain why the Tamil victims, especially those with an LTTE past, are much more likely to disclose their torture and sexual abuse only when they reach sanctuary abroad.”

.@HRCSriLanka denial of ongoing abductions/torture in #SriLanka Contradicts its own data obtained via RightToInformation. Visiting @UNHumanRights team should look into it. @mbachelet @itjpsl. @DeepikaUdagama must clarify.

@MaithripalaS should know that #TNA defended the #lka #Constitution when he violated it 3 times late last year. Foreign judges in SL judicial system doesn’t violate #sovereignty or Constitution as explained in my speech in Parliament on 22 May 2019 #UNHRC
