Countries have fallen. People have lost lives & homes. Countries are destabilized, split to pieces, locals are armed, locals are roped in as poodles, regime change & system change are all part of a neo-colonial liberal agenda that seeks to destroy the sovereign state system & bring corporate rule to the hands of a miniscule. This agenda has been rolled out a well-planned, well-coordinated, well-funded set of initiatives of which manufactured stories, news, fake videos, false eye witnesses, staged scenes, bogus NGOs, bought over locals and now even child actors are playing a role.

The “war crimes” charge against the Sri Lanka army is that the army killed hundreds and hundreds of “innocent” Tamil civilians instead of killing off the LTTE. This ‘war crimes' charge is part of a calculated strategy carried out by the western countries that support Tamil Eelam. A bogus ‘body count' was created at the end of Eelam War IV. The first estimate was 20,000 civilians killed. The Paranagama Commission reported that ‘privately UN staff were puzzled by the new death toll, then alleged to be 20,000 and wondered how it had been calculated.
