Lankans in LA Protest LTTE's Human Shield

SRI LANKANS in Los Angeles gathered opposite the United States Federal Government building in the world renowned Wilshire Business corridor to voice their disapproval against the facade of misinformation provided by the LTTE claiming that the civilians were targeted by the Armed Forces.

The LTTE has openly urged the civilians to be the last line of defence for the beseiged Prabhakaran now bunker hopping in Vanni.

The Sri Lankans carrying posters accused that LTTE of killing innocent Tamils and genocide. The rally and protest march was organized by the Sri Lanka Patriots of Los Angeles.

Leader of the Movement Punchi Nilame Dissanayake said the Sri Lankans in the USA worked hard to bring the atrocities of the LTTE to light.

Popular TV host Oprah Winfrey refused to allow a long march of the LTTE activists to come before her TV camera in Chicago, he said. Over 15, 000 Sri Lankans wrote to Winfrey that the LTTE presented a brand of ruthless terrorists.
