Silman, You dont have to be smart enough or educated to someone else's level to understand that the rajapakse brothers have cultivated a culture of lies, deceit, threats and brutality and even jailed members of their own military to keep the truth from getting out. Dont pretend that this ethnic cleansing did not happen or it might happen to you or someone close to you some day. Its all over the news on the Al Jazeera english channel, including pictures that the rajapakse's did not want the world to see.
