COLOMBO, Sri Lanka — Kill the Sri Lanka-Civil War story, V5414. The source denies he wrote the letter that said more than 300 civilians had been killed and 1,000 wounded in fighting in northern Sri Lanka.
The weirdos at AP always find ways to mis-represent Sri Lanka's struggle against LTTE terrorism and have even found innovative ways of becoming a proxy propaganda platform for the tamil terror group. Often they boldly publish tidbits of their own fertile imaginations and then retract them inconspicuosuly, in the inner pages where no one in their right minds read or look for news. Shown above is one of those bitchy little things.
The " 300 civillians killed " canard was prominantly carried to possibly instigate a smear campaign against Sri Lanka internationally., and was ostensibly 'sourced' from someone who later denied responsibility. As a leader of the news world, such irresponsibility on the part of the publisher reflects their own credibility since they carry the news to the world. AP perhaps considers itself above the law, and beyond the reach of small nations such as Sri Lanka.
Ap also carries a standardised statement about discrimination over decades against Tamils being the alleged reason for terrorism, presented in legalese which absolves them from responsibility for the unsubstantiated, yet detrimental image it projects against the majority Sri Lankans.
