Message: <blockquote data-quote="netlife007" data-source="post: 17110190" data-attributes="member: 79514">Ban Ki  Moon the UN Secretary General appointed an Advisory Panel to ADVISE HIM on the  final phase of the war in Sri Lanka. That advisory panel was not an officially  UN General Assembly or UN Security Council endorsed panel and that may explain  why its report ended up being ‘leaked’ and thereafter becoming quoted and  referred to as an officially sanction international UN document – which it is  not. However, it has suddenly been projected as an officially sanctioned UN  document when it is not.  The  below examples showcases how the PoE’s conclusion that “there  could have been as many as 40,000 civilian  deaths.”  ended  up with media and advocacy groups claiming that the GOSL and its troops KILLED,  BUTCHERED 40,000 and more CIVILIANS while these same parties SUBSTITUTED the  word ‘EVIDENCE’ when the PoE referred to “ALLEGATIONS”. With the current UN  Human Rights sessions in progress under a New Human Rights head it is prudent  that Governments, their envoys and other diplomats place the importance of how  NGOs/HR organizations and Media have impeded reconciliation as well as being  responsible for lies and distortions and some action needs to be taken against  them.</blockquote>
