2. May-18:A Dark Spot in the History of Mankind

'Behind Barbed Wires'

 

Tens of thousand souls forever perished in those early months of 2009, not just on that sombre May. Our agonising cries, to the world we appealed. Our kith and kin crushed, scattered like the ash of withered leaves on their native soil. Our ebbing hopes clung to the morality of leaders and nations; we tried in vain to save them from unabated carnage. Oh, land of Vanni, once our refuge, why has your life been sacrificed?

 

With unforgettable sadness, we grieve for the children of Eezham who died longing for dignity, struggling for justice, and fighting for freedom. We also remember those who languish in open prisons even today. A once self-reliant, self-sufficient and dignified Tamil nation suffers in silence behind Sri Lanka's barbed wires.

 

"Never again", said the civilised world to genocide. But what we witnessed in Mullivaikal were not only mass atrocities against a distinct ethnic group but also an obituary for the very treaties adopted to protect the rights of all human beings - the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

 

On this first anniversary of Mullivaikal, Jay A. Jasan evokes these memories in his poem, 'Behind Barbed Wires'.

 

Excerpt:

'Oh! Gods of Mercy, cried angels with pity

Seeing the carnage on beeches of Vanni

Seeds of shame spilled all over humanity

Strewn across Vanni were worlds' morality'

May 18^th…lest we forget

======================================================================

This day, previous year,  ( click here to launch in another window )

More than quarter a million innocent lives

Butchered by the brutal force of

Chemical bombs, Cluster bombs

And the most cruel ammunition

Barred by the U.N.

Blood-thirsty barbarians

Destroyed tiny babies, innocent children

And helpless ladies;

Genocide carried in broad daylight

When the U.N. stood as a passive spectator!

No big powers dare open their mouths!

No peace-brokers wished to mediate!

The biggest democracy, U.S.

Failed to condemn the genocide

The Land of Lincoln

Swerved from protecting

The rights of minority!

The country of George Washington

Declined to utter a voice in protest!

Thousands and thousands of people

Were melted as ash!

The crying children

Weeping mothers

Ailing aged

Did not get any help;

Skulls and bones

Heaped like mountains

Were carried by military trucks

Just to hide the massacre from media!

SriLanka became a Slaughter-house!

Did Buddha order this bloodbath?

Hitler seems to be a gentleman

When compared with Rajapakshe!

The Fuhrer of Germany

Declared Jews as his enemies.

The torture camps, Gas chambers,

Guillotine and all modes of perpetration

Were never hidden by the media.

Here in SriLanka

The butchery of a quarter million people

-Mass destruction by military junta-
was carried in the name of anti-terrorism!

Who is the terrorist?

One who fought against mass murder?

Or the one who committed the mass execution?

Even after a year you wish to keep silence?

Don't you have hearts with an iota of compassion?

Don't you have eyes to weep?

Don't you have a mind to condemn it?

Don't you have a conscience to guide your intellect?

"You can't separate peace from freedom because no one can be at peace unless he has his freedom."

-Malcolm X

A scholar quoted that a nation can easily be defeated and captured without weapons, if the language of the nation is destroyed.

 Brothers and Sisters, let's stand up together and reclaim what's ours!!!
