A Woman with a Vision and a Man on a
Mission

Man on a Mission: Mr Callum Macrae
One of the highly educated, experienced and most powerful women in the UN is the current UNHRC Ms Navaneethan Pillai who is on an official fact finding mission to the politically doomed country Sri-Lanka now. She will give an oral feed-back to the UNHR Council in September on her observations of the current human rights situation in Sri-Lanka after the genocidal war that ended in May 2009 and a more detailed report in March next year. Although the UN and the international community failed miserably to protect the Tamils from the worst genocide of the century the current chair of the UN Human Rights body is trying her best do the maximum for the beleaguered Tamil community and their human rights. The notion of R2P and all human rights laws did nothing to protect the Tamils from the Sinhala Genocide as revealed by Mr Callum Macray, the man on a mission to expose HR violations in Sri-Lanka during and after the 2009 war. He produced three videos exposing the cruelty of an unbalanced war in his three Channel 4 Videos “Sri-Lanka’s Killing Fields”.
