Well Done Amos Roberts,Proud to know that Media is Honest & Truthfull
Aus.Gov.Has Promised Aid to People in Vanni Region of SL. MUST See that it reaches THEM .Unlike the SUNAMI Time,ALL The Aid Was given to Sinhala people in the South(Galle,Matare) NON to Tamil people in the NORTH (where most fishermen-Villages were affected). GoSL is Famous for DISCRIMINATING Against people on Race,Religion Basis(Ethnic Minorities). The Aus.Gov.'s Aid Money will help the GoSL in buying Weapons to Kill the same people for whom the money was given to Help-Save.Give RedCross ,UNHCR

Is there a war going on in any part of India?"
Activists belonging to the pro-Tamil nationalist Periyar Dravidar Kazhagam (PDK) attacked a convoy of military trucks of the Indian Army allegedly transporting weapons to Sri Lanka. Five trucks were damaged in the attack. Mortar shells were found in the trucks, sources in Chennai said. http://www.tamilnet.com/art.html?catid=13&artid=29248

Why is the Government of Sri Lanka starving Tamil children to death?
Tamil people are beginning to die due to starvation, caused by GoSL's block of Food. The UN/IC should stop watching this horror and STOP this genocidal act! NOW! Media has an important to play in saving lives! Journalists, please do your duty. Expose the truth. Expose the genocidal acts of the Sri Lankan Army. Please HELP save lives.

How the media struggles to collect information
We are indeed indebted to your News Producers and the camera group for exposing from time to time the sufferings, and not the least the pathetic deaths of the ordinary Tamil citizens in Sri Lanka. We also thank you (in advance) for presenting another episode of this atrocities done by the govt - I mean the Dateline on 10th May. We would like you to view a video clip which I append. This will give you an idea as to how the media personnel struggle to get the news out.http://www.tamilwin.com/view.php?2a0sE9jFb0bc1DpYG30ecbC0jt40cc3PZLu024d3c6Wn5d4b321VQ6o4d4eiUG7fed0e4Ph2g8de

Sri Lanka - is it yearning for World's approval for its atrocities?
Buddhist extremism has gone to the extreme levels that more than six thousand innocent Tamils were killed and several thousands have been seriously wounded just within the last three months. While killing hundreds of innocent Tamils daily, some of the ministers from the jumbo cabinet of Sri Lanka, travel around the world with their dry clean suites to convince the world that they are wiping out terrorism. They deny all the atrocities that are being committed against innocent children & women.

Thanks to SBS and Mr Amos from all Tamils
Good documentary. Media should do more to create awareness of such issues. Read the 'International Frame' section (USA, UK, India, China, Pakistan, Israel & Iran involvement in SL) on website >>> TAMILNATION.org > - HIGLY RECOMMENDED read >>> - http://www.tamilnation.org/intframe/tamileelam/index.htm

Thank You Robert Amos & SBS staff for your part in helping save the life of an innocent Tamil civilian
The Tamil Journalist discussed in this doco has now been released without charge because the Sinhala govt found that he had done nothing wrong and because of a lot of diplomatic pressure. He was one of the lucky few Tamils who happened to have good contacts with western diplomats. This SBS doco has also played a part no doubt in bringing the attention of world to the illegal abduction, torture & detention of this Tamil & has helped rescue him http://tamilnet.com/art.html?catid=13&artid=29149
