Samantha Power Visits Sri Lanka and Ignores History (March 20, 2019)
Samantha Power recently delivered a big speech in Sri Lanka. She was the keynote speaker at an event that celebrated Minister Mangala Samaraweeras three decades in politics. Given Powers track record, this is quite regrettable news.
I looked around and still didn’t see any info about who the terrorists were. Likely is Tamil Tigers (commies), I don’t think Sri Lanka has many mohammedans but I’ll check to see.
Definitely enough muzzards to cause harm if any want to:
Sri Lanka’s population practices a variety of religions. As of the 2011 census 70.2% of Sri Lankans were Theravada Buddhists, 12.6% were Hindus, 9.7% were Muslims (mainly Sunni) and 7.4% Christians (6.1% Roman Catholic and 1.3% other Christian).

Your #327 link - Samantha Power - Sri Lanka wouldn’t open for me. This one seems to work OK.
