Human Rights Council session in Geneva. The 25-year war ended in  2009, with government troops defeating the Tamil Tiger rebels.  Housing Minister Wimal Weerawansa said Tuesday that the proposed  U.S.-backed resolution amounts to calling for the revival of the  defeated rebels.  Sri Lanka's government has organized a series of street protests against the proposed resolution around the country.<img src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/0c/Associated_Press_logo_2012.svg/30px-Associated_Press_logo_2012.svg.png" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></blockquote>
