Sri Lanka →Tamil killings
A new documentary shot in Sri Lanka, to be aired on Channel 4 this week, shows a 12-year-old lying dead with five bullet holes in his chest. A senior Sri Lankan Army commander and frontline soldier have told Britains Channel 4 News that point-blank executions of Tamils at the end of the civil war in May 2009 were carried out under orders from the top. In an extended segment on Sri Lanka Tuesday, Channel 4 broadcast translated video interviews with the two soldiers. Surrendering LTTE fighters and their families were detained, tortured and shot, the trooper said. Channel 4 also interviewed in the studio the former Chief Prosecutor for the International Criminal Tribunals for the former Yugoslavia and for Rwanda, Louis Arbour, who slammed the impunity enjoyed by Sri Lankan forces throughout the armed conflict. Sri Lankas ambassador to the United Nations, Palitha Kohana, failed to show up, despite agreeing beforehand to appear to defend his governments record.
The senior Sri Lankan army commander said: "I don't think we wanted to keep any hardcore elements, so they were done away with. It is clear that such orders were, in fact, received from the top."
"Definitely, the order would have been to kill everybody and finish them off, he said. It is clear such orders would have been received from the top.
Tthe Sri Lankan trooper said: Our commander ordered us to kill everyone. We killed everyone.
He confirmed he killed civilians. Surrendering LTTE fighters and their families were detained and tortured before being shot, the soldier also said.
Channel 4 News broadcast several photographs taken by soldiers from the killing fields in Northeastern Sri Lanka, showing piles of bodies, lines of corpses and terrified civilians. Some of the bodies had their hands tied behind their backs.
The program quoted soldiers as saying LTTE leader Pirapaharan's 12-year old son had also been shot dead
after surrendering with his bodyguards.
Speaking on the Channel 4s flagship news program at 7pm, Louis Arbour said there was no possibility of Sri Lanka holding a proper inquiry into the war crimes, noting that since the conflict began there had been impunity.
She questioned the viability of the Sri Lankan government investigating the conduct of its own armed forces.
A senior Amnesty International official told Channel 4 News his organisation had this week launched a world-wide campaign to highlight the need for an independent international investigation into war crimes in Sri Lanka.
London-based Amnesty International and New York-based Human Rights Watch have joined Brussels-based International Crisis Group in this regard, Channel 4 said.
This week International Crisis Group, of which Arbour is currently head, released a detailed account of the mass slaughter during the final months of the conflict last year. The report said the scale of death was much higher than reported at the time, and certainly high enough to triple the UNs internal figure of 7,000.
Noting that both the LTTE and the Sri Lankan armed forces were responsible for war crimes, the report made clear that all but a small portion of these deaths were due to government fire
Eventually, an independent and impartial survey of those still living in the Northern Province will be needed to establish this part of Sri Lankas history, ICG said.
On Monday night Arbour told an audience at Chatham House the foreign policy think tank that "the [Sri Lankan] government's refusal to distinguish between combatants and non-combatants" and the "sheer magnitude of civilian death and suffering" dealt what she called "the most serious of body blows to international humanitarian law".
Despite Channel 4 desperately trying to locate him, Sri Lanka's ambassador to the United Nations, Palitha Kohana, failed to show up, despite agreeing beforehand to appear to defend his governments record, news anchor Jon Snow said.
Sri Lankas London High Commission meanwhile issued a statement totally denying the allegations of war crimes.
The High Commission of Sri Lanka in the United Kingdom totally deny the allegations made against the Government of Sri Lanka and its armed forces. As it has been repeatedly stressed and supported by evidence, Governments security forces were engaged in a humanitarian operation with the objective of rescuing the civilians held as human shields by a terrorist outfit: the LTTE, which was banned in many countries including the UK, the statement said.
All internationally accepted standards and norms of such operations were followed in the prosecution of the humanitarian operation by the security forces which were under strict orders to follow a zero civilian casualty policy.

Drinking Alcohol?
Why people start drinking...!!
Sometime we ask ourselves…Why do people drink?
Well! People drink alcohol for many reasons. But why do they start drinking at all? To find that, we have listed the top 10 reasons why people start drinking. If you think that you might have your own reasons or some other reason that is not listed below, than please take sometime to share that with us in the comment box below. Now let’s see why people start drinking alcohol …
1. For the effect
Many people drink alcohol for the effect that alcohol has on the central nervous system. It is both a depressant and a stimulant, and drinking can result in feelings of euphoria, disorientation or a pleasurable release of tension.
2. Out of curiosity
People may drink simply to experiment with alcohol and
judge whether or not drinking is for them.
3. As a reaction to the social environment
We’ve all probably experienced some type of peer
pressure in our lives. In fact, almost everyone wants to fit in. Many people try alcohol when they are in a social
setting where everyone else is drinking in order to feel accepted and part of the environment.
4. Because they see it modeled by others
Environmental factors, such as the influence of parents or older people, play a role in initial alcohol use. For example, parents who drink more and who view drinking favorably may have children who do the same.
5. As part of normal developmental transitions
Adolescents who are in the process of puberty(sexual maturation) and who experience more independence and freedom may drink alcohol as part of the dramatic physical, emotional and social change of adolescence. In other words, drinking is a part of self-exploration. Likewise, young people in college or university may drink alcohol during this time transition to adulthood in order to explore their own values and beliefs about alcohol.
6. To relieve
stress
Some new drinkers may use alcohol as a way to escape or cope with problems. Alcohol may temporarily relieve stress and focus attention elsewhere, but the problems remain well after you stop drinking.
7. As a result of personality characteristics
People who start drinking early often share
similar personality characteristics. These characteristics include:
aggressiveness
anxiousness
depressed
difficulty avoiding harm or
harmful situations
dis-inhibition
disruptive
hyperactivity
rebelliousness
thrill seeker
withdrawn
8. Because it is culturally normalized
Today alcohol is widely available and aggressively promoted through TV, film, radio, ads, and the Internet. This normalization
makes alcohol use socially acceptable and normal, especially in countries or places where drinking is a part of life, like Ireland. Why do the Irish drink so much? This culture, for example, has drinking ingrained into the masses.
9. Because they expect a good experience
People who expect drinking to be a pleasurable experience are more likely to drink than people who do not. So, the expectation that alcohol will be fun and enjoyable may actually cause a person to start drinking.
10. Because it is accessible
Alcohol is pretty easy to get, even for
teens. Family and friends are the primary sources of alcohol for kids who drink, whether knowingly or unwillingly. Local alcohol retailers may also accept fake IDs for underage drinkers. So relatively speaking and in comparison with other illicit activities, alcohol is accessible to most anyone.
