(SALEM, Ore.) - Like a terrible scene from a past world war, the problems for the Tamil minority in Sri Lanka; victims of a massive Genocide just over two years ago, are far from over.

Reports dispatched to our news desk inform us that suffering is rampant among refugees who are still experiencing daily physical and sexual abuse from occupying soldiers.

What we know is that The Tamil Alliance's Parliament members were holding a public meeting last Thursday in a place authorized for Tamil people, 16 June 2011, when more than two dozen Sri Lankan Army (SLA) soldiers entered the area and attacked the Tamil people in attendance.

The uniformed government soldiers are said to have entered the hall and attacked the participants with rifle butts and batons. We're told 25 SLA soldiers also "used poles to beat up people" at the meeting.

Other information from various sources filtering through to the west and Salem-News.com specifically, describes the massive human rights violations that the Sri Lankan army is continually perpetrating against the survivors.

It is, from the sounds of it, a real 'free for all' with no no holes barred for Sri Lanka's marauding soldiers, whose acts are being compared to those that took place in Bosnia, where women and girls were savagely attacked, raped and killed, and clearly no recourse for Tamils.

It truly is a wicked game and the world without question, has really neglected its duties again.

Which begs the question; what happened in Sri Lanka to create such inhumane practices? Calls for expedient world attention are circulating.

During the 2009 Genocide, these Sinhalese majority Buddhist military forces under orders of the Sri Lankan president, Majinda Rajapaksa, may have actually murdered more than a hundred thousand civilians and the govt. highhandedly refuse to accept responsibility for the highly documented crimes.

However there is a lot of video that the Tamil people shot as the brutality and killings took place, and the SLA soldier video clips and photos begin immediately after the Tamil cameras end.
