Open reply to ICG

Ben Silva UK

Dear Sir/Madam,

Serious errors in Asia Report N°135 – 14 June 2007 and your website

Thank you very much for your reply. Although you may not want a response from me, the errors in your website are so serious and your influence is significant that I, as a member of the public has duty to expose the truth. You, as an international body has the responsibility to hear my comments, that are provided with evidence, references and sources. If you are not prepared to hear comments, please do not publish or make unsubstantiated statements, or mislead the world with a report that look very similar to LTTE propaganda material. Please read on as I will show that ICG is simply reflecting LTTE views.

Regards,

Ben Silva (14 - 8 - 07)

Main text of my letter

Your reply to my initial letter and details of my letters are given in the appendix A for the benefit of readers. Appendix B forms further response to your incorrect statements.

I read your Asia Report N°135 – 14 June 2007 but was unable to verify certain important statements (given on executive summary) for accuracy, authenticity or validity of the reports, as no sources or references were given. The report appeared to carefully crafted, with selective information and appropriate wording to project a pro LTTE and anti Sri Lanka image. The anti Sri Lanka stand and the venom showed towards Sri Lanka is almost unbelievable, when all Sri Lanka is doing is fighting to survive against Tamil racist empire builders. Your report, written with a tone of arrogance and demonstrating unjustifiable hatred and venom towards Sri Lanka. It is most certainly a biased report in favour of LTTE and excessively anti GOSL.

The report hardly dealt with the main issues related to human rights crisis, that affects all Sri Lankans:

Terrorism producing orphans, disabled persons, blind persons, and causing fear, mental illnesses and stress.

Ethnic cleansing, depriving livelihood and homes of innocent people
Loss of life of law enforcement officers and security forces
Fund raising in the West that cause Terrorism and destruction in Sri Lanka.

The following factors are important factors that fuel terrorism:

1 Fund raising by LTTE in the West,
2. Tax evasion using bogus charities
3. human trafficking,
4. arms purchase and arms trafficking,
5 export and trade of terror technology,
6 credit card fraud,
7 money laundering,
8 identification fraud,
9 counterfeit trade,
10 passport fraud

The report hardly dealt with the above issues other than saying “Maintain pressure on LTTE financing and extortion of the Tamil diaspora. “ . The report did not look at issues that fuel terrorism that lead to HR abuses linked to terrorism. The report was quick enough to blame Sri Lanka, for inaction by GOSL, whilst it did not blame Western countries for turning a blind eye on LTTE fund raising. In fact, because Western countries turned a blind eye for LTTE , they should have been blamed and made accountable for destruction in Sri Lanka. India created and armed LTTE to cause instability in Sri Lanka. They soon realised their error and stopped supporting LTTE. LTTE, no. 2, ie Karuna left LTTE and accused Prabakaran for the deaths in Sri Lanka. Western countries have allowed this monster to grow, and should bear full responsibility for the death and destruction in Sri Lanka. For some strange reason, LTTE have become the darlings of some HR groups, making me suspect that some HR groups may have been infiltrated. It is sad that when the GOSL is trying to eradicate poverty and terrorism, well paid NGO officials try to increase misery and poverty, by supporting terrorists, when they are about to be confronted. Also it has to be investigated if there is an attempt to bully Sri Lanka.

Terrorism can be stopped, without loss of life if factors that fuel terrorism are dealt.

Thanks to the West, LTTE has grown to a rich powerful monster, that may have even infiltrated HR organisations. So dealing with LTTE may not be an easy matter, due to its financial power.

The report 135 should have said “ Fund raising should be halted, giving residency to bogus refugees should be halted, arms trafficking should be halted etc“.

The report did not deal with the matter of distress of victims and compensation of the victims. Compensation should be paid by countries that allow fundraising to take place. Compensation of victims is an important matter and should not be swept under the carpet.

My comments on

“ SRI LANKA’S HUMAN RIGHTS CRISIS Asia Report N°135 – 14 June 2007”

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS page of your report contains the key allegations against Sri Lanka. There are no references or sources against the key allegations and statements related to Sri Lanka in the page. The references should have been easy to see so that it is possible to verify the accuracy, validity and authenticity of the statements.

To determine if an organisation has been infiltrated by LTTE, we need to watch its conduct and monitor statements, as LTTE will not state in public, when they have infiltrated an organisation.

As the evidence shows, infiltration by LTTE of an NGO, is not in the hypothetical domain, it has happened for real.

A news report indicates:

“A Tiger Intelligence operative who was taken into custody in Chilaw along with communication equipment disclosed that he had served as human rights activist in a NGO after the tsunami in 2004. “ ref: http://www.dailymirror.lk/2007/08/10/front/08.asp

With the amount of profit LTTE makes, and its previous record on bribery, it is possible for LTTE to infiltrate any organisation. In fact, LTTE has the capacity to “buy” an NGO for its propaganda.

It is thought that LTTE agents infiltrate politicians by becoming volunteers first.

To see how LTTE operates please read the following:
Ref. http://www.asiantribune.com/index.php?q=node/5889

It would be nice to know who your researchers are, their background, their credentials and their remuneration. Organisations that make false allegations should be open for scrutiny.

It is also revealed that the well known peace maker Eric Solheim “has received “help” from the LTTE when he bought his new house in Oslo. “ Ref. http://www.svik.org/nat1.pdf.

As you can see LTTE can influence almost any body, including NGO’s.

Please see “ Real Hustle “ to see how easy it is to be deceived. It appears that you may have been deceived by LTTE agents.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbcthree/programmes/real_hustle/scams.shtml

As your report appeared to be an LTTE propaganda document, I suspected that there could be a structural fault in your research methodology. I also wanted to find sources for your wild allegations. So as I searched through the document, I found the potential point for LTTE infiltration.

Source for possible LTTE infiltration

The appendix B, About the international crisis group Page 34 of the report states:

“ Crisis Group’s approach is grounded in field research. Teams of political analysts are located within or close by countries at risk of outbreak, escalation or recurrence of violent conflict. Based on information and assessments from the field, it produces analytical reports containing practical recommendations targeted at key international decision-takers. “

This is where errors or misinformation could creep in, through political analysts.
Political analysts could be:

LTTE agents, influenced by camouflaged LTTE fronts, LTTE sympathisers, paid by LTTE, influenced by LTTE using psychology, influenced by LTTE using gifts and entertainment.
I have given above, few of the methods your political analysts could have been influenced.
I will give you the further evidence and you could come to your own conclusions.
Your statement in ref. http://www.crisisgroup.org/home/index.cfm?id=4459&l=1

( errors in your website )

(1) “Tamils, who have traditionally inhabited the northern and eastern regions, “

My response:-
This is an unsubstantiated and incorrect statement. Evidence is provided by me that North and East were Sinhala areas. Sinhalese have been ethnically cleansed. Systematic ethnic cleansing by Tamils racists have driven away the Sinhalese from their homes in the past and are doing the same now.
Jaffna was inhabited by Tamils. The central Lanka also has Tamils, brought in by the British.

I mentioned clearly all Sri Lanka is for its citizens.

Claims such as (1) are made my LTTE agents, your statement coincide that of LTTE.

Evidence that North and East were Sinhala areas

In Sri Lanka, the indigenous population for over 5000 years was Sinhalese. Archaeological and ancient documents such as Mahavansa (http://www.nexcorpsl.com/sinhala/Mahavansa.htm ) indicate that Sri Lanka was the home of Sinhalese. Ruins of ancient cities such as Anuradhapura and Pollonuruwa have ample evidence that Northern Sri Lanka was the home of Sinhalese. Further, if we look at recent history, it is documented that Robert Knox, the first Englishman to visit Sri Lanka, who landed in Trincomalee was taken to the King in Kandy. This clearly indicates that Trincomalee was under the control of the Kandy King.

Ref http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Knox_(sailor). Even Mutur, Sinhala name Mooduthora was a Sinhala area, with a Sinhala name. What a load of codswallop for LTTE to claim it is a Tamil area. It appears that the IC and the ICG has been taken for a ride by LTTE. You have not done your research, but merely regurgitated LTTE propaganda material.

References on ethnic cleansing

(1) http://www.spur.asn.au/ (Good site for LTTE atrocities )
(2) http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/south_asia/526407.stm#
(3) http://www.colombopage.com/archive_07/July31132233SL.html
(4) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BiJTIL_3GaY&NR=1
(2) Your statement :- “The Sinhalese parties have consistently failed to agree on a reasonable autonomy proposals”

My response:-

Please substantiate – It was LTTE that always breached peace agreements.
Again you don’t blame LTTE but blames Sinhalese parties – shows your obvious bias, also shows that your views are similar to that of the views of LTTE.

Comments on the report - Asia Report N°135 – 14 June 2007”

The report failed to identify the root cause of human rights problems in Sri Lanka. To comment on Sri Lanka’s conduct we need to have a standard. For example, an IQ test, has a standard for comparison. Without an appropriate standard for comparison, comments on Sri Lanka’s conduct does not do justice to Sri Lanka. To see if Sri Lanka’s conduct is justifiable in the real world, we have to see the reaction of democratic countries when faced with a situation similar to Sri Lanka. The report lacked reality as it did not even compare similar situations.

A report in isolation, as it lacks comparison, could be used to provide propaganda, as it has happened now.

When you compare the conduct of other countries with that of Sri Lanka, it clearly shows that Sri Lanka’s conduct has been good, even though it has been subjected to unprecedented levels of terrorism and violence. Details of comparison given below.

Let us compare Sri Lanka and UK for a moment

Steven Lawrence, an innocent Black student killed and UK had adequate resources, detective facilities and even an eye witness for the Murder. The killer was not caught and given any punishment. Lawrence case is merely tip of the ice burg, and I am sorry that I had to mention it. How do you expect Sri Lankan Govt., with limited resources to catch all criminals, when the UK Govt. could not even catch a murderer ? Come on ICG, get real.

Police brutality to Muslims are reported in the press as well.

UK has only a tiny fraction of terror experienced by Sri Lanka. Let us see the performance of UK. Jean Charles de Menezes, a Brazilian was shot eight times and killed by the Police, after boarding a London Underground train. Any cover ups there ?

Another person was shot and wounded.
ICG please get real, and do not hound Sri Lanka.

There is violence, torture, kidnapping, murder in London.
1. Ross Kemp examines Sri Lankan Tamil Gang Crime in London.

Violence, Torture, Kidnapping, Murder are committed by Tamil gangs in Britain.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JqZlBygiVlg

Did the UK Government manage to control it?
Did ICG or any other HR group criticize the UK Govt. ?

There is active fund raising for terrorism in UK
Did the ICG or any other HR group criticize the UK Govt. ?

Why are you hounding Sri Lanka, when the Western Governments are the root cause of the problem by letting in bogus refugees and then turning a blind eye for fund raising ?

Did the UK Govt. stop the fund raising for terrorism that is going on ?

So why is the ICG hounding only Sri Lanka with such venom and hatred that it becomes so obvious that you are doing the dirty work for LTTE ?

Human rights are absolutely sacred. It is sad to see HR organisations to be hijacked by persons with no morality, Principles, values or ethical standards.

Double standards

Let us look at the past and then get to the present.

Remember UK and USA, fire bombed Dresdon, in Germany, killing Civilians, during WWII. The fire bombing of Dresden in World War II, between Febrruary 13 and February 15, 1945 killed thousands of people. Remember USA, dropped nuclear bombs in Japan to defeat empire builders, killing over 200,000, in just two bombs, when National security was at risk. Also USA rounded up Japanese Americans, and put them into camps, because they were considered to be a threat.

You know what the Australians did to the Vietnamese. Do you know of war crimes committed by Australians ?

You may be aware of the large number of deaths to young Iraqi children during because of an embargo.

You do not need me to tell you that.

Your hands are not squeaky clean.

Get real ICG.

In Sri Lanka, deaths or potential deaths are pale in comparison. But remember we are dealing with a powerful terror group that has killed over 22 MP’s and leaders of India and Sri Lanka. During the Falklands war, a retreating ship (Belgrano) was sunk killing over 800.

We must have the same rules for all countries and the rules must be applied in a consistent manner. We must not change the rules as we go along.

Deaths and other activities in Sri Lanka are pale in comparison to deaths caused by USA and UK .So please stop hounding Sri Lanka. By hounding and stopping aid to Sri Lanka you are indirectly supporting terrorists

The present

Let us now see the conduct of Western Governments, when their territorial integrity was at risk. Western Govts. invaded Iraq, to prevent a threat to their country. The invasion, as we know now was on a false pretext. There was of false research data, just like in Sri Lanka now.

The invasion in Iraq has resulted in the deaths of over 650000 civilians. (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/10/10/AR2006101001442.html)

What ever the death toll in Iraq, it is massive compared to the potential death toll in Sri Lanka.

Remember accounts of abuse, rape, and torture of prisoners in the Abu Gharib prison, in Iraq.

I am not criticising the decision of the leaders of USA or UK. The decisions were taken by the leaders of respective countries to protect their countries. The Sri Lankan is entitled to take suitable and reasonable decisions to protect Sri Lanka. You made no protests, when LTTE went on a killing spree (62 deaths ) on the Dollar and Kent farm. You have no basis whatsoever to protest, when the Sri Lankan president is using reasonable force to protect Sri Lanka.

HR groups have enough to do in Iraq and Afganistan, where abuse of HR are much higher.

Instead they hound a small country that is fighting to survive terrorism funded from Western countries. It gives the feeling of neo colonialism is in operation by groups that have no sense of morality, values, or ethics doing ground work for an invasion.

Abuse in UK

The way forward is to separate Human rights issues from LTTE propaganda. Some organisations can learn from Red Cross. NGO’s should never recruit LTTE agents into their ranks.

Summary

Your report (N°135 ) did not have references or sources on important allegations against Sri Lanka, given on executive summary. The report and statements on the webside, gave the impression that they were produced for the consumption of gullible, with the specific purpose of tarnishing the image Sri Lanka. As the report did not have references for important statements , they were not verifiable for accuracy, authenticity and validity. The report had an arrogant tone with hatred and venom towards Sri Lanka. The report merely reflected biased opinion, of an LTTE sympathiser, with an anti govt. stand. The report did not look into the root cause of the problem and is an attempt to mislead the International Community with a pro LTTE and anti Government view. The report did not recognise that deaths and HR abuses in Sri Lanka are pale in comparison to HR abuses that has happened and are taking place in Iraq.

If you quoted the sources, then it would have been possible to verify your statements. By avoiding sources you could publish any canard. Without sources or references, the reports could be the opinion of a person, rather than a fact.

So if you make allegations, we would like to know references and sources, so that these could be verified.

I would say, if you do not want to defend your self, please do not make wilds unsubstantiated accusations about Sri Lanka. If these so called experts attempt to tarnish the image of Sri Lanka, with unsubstantiated statements, then their reputation may go the same way as that of Prof. Meadows. Many are already questioning the competency of some HR organisations. The report failed to identify the perpetrator of the aggression, ie LTTE attempting to create a racist, mono ethnic state and the victim, ie Sri Lanka.

The recommendations appeared to be that of an arrogant neo-colonialist, with the same sort of arrogance and confidence Prof Meadows displayed. The report is a hollow report, demonstrated lack of analytical skills, as it did not cover main issues, did not indicate the sources for various statements, lacked relevant substance, and merely serve as a LTTE propaganda document. This report has biased criticism of GOSL, mostly ignored or marginalised LTTE murders of civilians and ethnic cleansing, has very little coverage to issues fuelling terrorism, marginalised treatment of LTTE fund raising and other criminal activities of LTTE, ignored statements made by TMVP regarding LTTE and Prabakaran, and appear to be a propaganda document to tarnish the image of Sri Lanka. In a nutshell, this report failed to identify the perpetrator LTTE, the racist group trying to create a racist Tamil State, with global funds, and the victim Sri Lanka trying to survive. The report indicate that ICG’s grasp of the situation in Sri Lanka is limited. If this report shows a typical quality of a report produced by ICG, then they have been giving misleading , unsubstantiated, biased information, what may even be called garbage to key international decision-takers.

Just like it happened with, Prof. Meadows, we may need to look at situations again.

It appears that ICG has another agenda, which is creating ground work for invasion, which is likely to create a blood bath similar to the one in Iraq.

No offence was intended to ICG or Mr Evans, but the truth needs to be exposed and justice done for Sri Lanka.

Appendix A

Reply from ICG

Thank you for sending Crisis Group your letter concerning current events in Sri Lanka and Crisis Group's reporting on conflict.

We agree with you that terrorism and violence in Sri Lanka, as anywhere in the world, is totally unacceptable. However, I completely disagree with your implication that we are biased towards the LTTE and that our reporting of the situation in Sri Lanka has been undertaken by an LTTE agent.

I suggest that you do not make comments that you cannot substantiate and/ or are nonsense. For example:

"And now the International Crisis Group has the audacity to tell Sri Lanka not to defend Sri Lanka," - where have we said this or something remotely approximating this?

"If Mr Evans is thinking about R2P, then he should start that in Australia, his home country."

"ICG paid no attention to ethnic cleansing, killing, child fighters by LTTE" - See our last report on human rights in Sri Lanka (June 2007)where we have a short section on this.

"It appears that Mr Evans is preaching racism." - where is your justification for this allegation? You are free to disagree with what he saysbut not to make unsubstantiated comments such as this.

I invite you to look again at our reports, as well as those by other international respected and independent organisations such as the United Nations, Human Rights Watch etc, rather than relying on solely one website and its forums, to inform yourself better.


Original letters see to ICJ and I CG For my original letters see to ICJ and I CG see " Open letter to the International Commission of Jurists "http://www.lankaherald.com/

I suggest you do not reply to this message as you are unlikely to get a response.

Appendix B

Further response

(3) Your statement in your reply to me : - See our last report on human rights in Sri Lanka (June 2007)
My response:- I could not see any reference to Dollar farm and Kent farm
massacres or any reference to ethnic cleansing. Could you please give me the report number or any other means to find it. The incident and ethnic cleansing are so important that it should have been placed in a visible and noticeable part of the report and not strategically hidden.

(4) Your report “root causes of the conflict “

My response:-

- Racist Tamils trying to carve out a part of Sri Lanka and then start a Tamil empire.
- Bogus refugees funding terror in Sri Lanka
- Sri Lanka is fighting for survival against a racist empire building Tamil business organisation
- For funding of LTTE refer to:
ref: 1 http://www.janes.com/news/security/jir/jir070810_1_n.shtml

ref 2 See Jane’s Intelligence Review)
(http://www.janes.com/press/press/pc070719_1.shtml

The root cause of the problem in Sri Lanka could be attributed to a number of factors. Favouring Tamils by Western countries in giving residency, turning a blind eye to their fund raising, allowing bogus charities tax free fund raising, providing grants to Tamil groups by local authorities and probably providing free legal aid.

(5) Report 135

Your statement:- “the government is using extra-judicial killings and enforced disappearances “

My response:-

This statement is unsubstantiated and no evidence whatsoever provided. Did UK manage to catch the killer of Steven Lawrence, an innocent Black student killed and the killer was not given any punishment. Lawrence case is merely tip of the ice burg, and I am sorry that I had to mention it. UK could not even catch a murder and punish the killer. What happened to Jean Charles de Menezes ?

You are just hounding Sri Lanka and providing propaganda for LTTE

(6) Your statement:- “the government is using extra-judicial killings and enforced disappearances “

My response:-
An allegation usually made by LTTE agents.
Other Governments have used covert operations when national security is at risk. Eg USA, UK etc. So please don’t hound Sri Lanka, deal with more powerful countries first.

(7) Asia Report N°134

Racist – because reports appear to favour Tamils, as there is no criticism of Dollar and Kent farm murders and no criticism of ethnic cleansing by Tamils.

(8) Comments on your reply

And now the International Crisis Group has the audacity to tell Sri Lanka not to defend Sri Lanka,"

My reply:-
What did Mr Evans mean by “Potential case for global intervention in Sri Lanka “

Did he mean “Don’t liberate north – otherwise ----- “Not to liberate north is a typical expectation of an LTTE agent or LTTE sympathiser.

It is the primary duty of a Govt. to protect the national sovereignty, territorial integrity of the state. Sri Lankan Govt. is just trying to do that resisting racist empire builders and neo colonialists.

The whole mess and mayhem in Sri Lanka is caused by Western countries allowing bogus refugees residential status and then turning a blind eye to their fund raising. India started the crisis by training and arming LTTE.

LTTE agents most certainly will not label themselves as LTTE agents or sympathisers. They are more likely to use subtle influence so that their victim is unaware of what is happening. When they wanted to kill the Army commander of SL, they sent a pregnant women.

If the ICG thought LTTE agents would come with labels and identification badges then ICG is more naive than I thought.

The implications of (1) to (6) is that ICG has been manipulated by LTTE, as the ideas of ICG coincide with the ideas of LTTE. Therefore I am justifying in stating that ICG is reflecting the views of LTTE.

Usually LTTE manipulate people by using lavish gifts and entertainment. How ever this technique is unique to LTTE.

Without knowing the background, income and resources of researchers of NGO’s, it is difficult to state with certainty. If the statements of LTTE and NGO’s are similar, one cannot be blamed for having a link.

In fact it was recently found

If NGO’s are to be trusted, they should not be biased and they should be transparent. NGO’s such as ICG should be able to defend their statements.

I need to refresh the memory of the public about Prof. Meadows – another expert. This expert, made the life of innocent people hell, because of the wrong conclusions he came to. Now it reminds me of various “experts” who claim to defend human rights and discredit Sri Lanka, the same way Prof. Meadows did. These experts from ICG and HRW do not blame the aggressor but blame the victim, the same way as Prof Meadows did. What conclusions have many come to about the competency of the so called experts ? It has expressed by many already and there is no point repeating it.

The so called experts, if they are unable to defend their statements, or make unfounded accusations on a sovereign state, then they should not be in international bodies.

If the ICG is not prepared to defend their statements and refuse to reply or respond to genuine public concerns, then their is serious doubt about their integrity, credibility and their neutral stand.

No one accuses the Red Cross to be biased. Trust has to be earned. Trust does not automatically come in just because there is a title or a label. Very few HR organisations are now trusted, because of their bias to terrorists and the massive financial clout of LTTE and their readiness to bribe people.

(9) Recommendation on TMVP

Recommendation on Karuna by the ICG is also irrational. Why only restrict TMVP for unarmed activity when a much more dangerous LTTE is allowed to go armed. If the recommendations of ICG is carried out, LTTE would take no time in eliminating TMVP, as has happed in the past to political opponents of LTTE. Disarming Karuna is a requirement of LTTE. So this report simply regurgitate LTTE requirements.

I will put it across very politely, and very confidently, that ICG does not appear to have much grasp of the situation in Sri Lanka. ICG is probably good at creating a crisis, as they are attempting to do now in Sri Lanka.

Does the West treat the Al Quaeda group as equals ? Again it is rather sad that some groups have no principles, have double standards, no morality or knowledge of values or ethics.

Please read the article of a well educated Professor for his opinion on NGO ‘s -

“Forget the public opinions of the NGOs and the Parliamentarians who are on the payroll of the LTTE “ http://www.lankaweb.com/news/items07/090807-3.html

Rather sadly, some NGO’s have already lost their credibility.

As for your comments on web sites, HRW publish unsubstantiated canards.

The reputation of HRW is questionable and unfortunately lost their credibility in the eyes of many.
