Pretense for Genocide
Tamils Against Genocide legal counsel Bruce Fein submitted to US Attorney General Holder a 12-count indictment against the top command of Sri Lanka's security forces. The two named, one an American citizen and the other an American resident alien, are accused of using counterterrorism as a pretense for genocide. TAG and world human rights organizations say the atrocities in Sri Lanka by the Buddhist majority Sinhalese against the Hindu/Christian minority Tamil rival those of Serbia against Bosnia and Kosova.
