About Hillary Clinton in public on the world stage on Sri Lanka on 22 April 2009
“One glaring instance of this blinding zealotry in the wielding of power was when Clinton directed a tongue-lashing at the government of Sri Lanka on the 22nd April 2009 for engendering “a terrible humanitarian tragedy.”[1] about 36 hours after all the Western ambassadors had been shown real time aerial footage[2] of some 100-110,000 civilians streaming across the shallow parts of Nandikadal Lagoon to safety in the wake of a remarkable SL Army military operation launched on the night of the 19th April.” ….

Hillary Clinton in secret internal policy suggestion for Middle East, 31 December 2012
“The best way to help Israel deal with Iran’s growing nuclear capability is to help the people of Syria overthrow the regime of Bashar Assad, ….
The end of the Assad regime would end this dangerous alliance. Israel’s leadership understands well why defeating Assad is now in its interests. Bringing down Assad would not only be a massive boon to Israel’s security, it would also ease Israel’s understandable fear of losing its nuclear monopoly. Then, Israel and the United States might be able to develop a common view of when the Iranian program is so dangerous that military action could be warranted.”
“In short, the White House can ease the tension that has developed with Israel over Iran by doing the right thing in Syria. With his life and his family at risk, only the threat or use of force will change the Syrian dictator Bashar Assad’s mind.”

Subject to exceptions, it appears that the mainline western media has not acknowledged the exceptional character of the GSL operations that penetrated and eventually seized control of the Last Redoubt between 19th April and 18/19th May. It is feasible to describe the operations as work that involved saving lives with force insofar as killing a few in battles was the only way of saving the majority – and we know that some 295,000 Tamil civilians and Tigers survived.
