The suffering in Sri Lanka

I know it's a line we've all heard, but every little will help at this moment.

The link below is for the 1st 'independant' report out of Sri Lanka of the camps used to house IDP's.

One can argue about the politics of this war, whose right and what should be done. But (and I know it's wrong to say this) what's happening is happening, there is no stopping the govt. of Sri Lanka so one might as well help the people directly in all this mess. At the end of the day, it is not land or one's ethnicity that matters right?

The two links below enables you to donate to the IDP's in Sri Lanka. 1 GBP can make a big difference in Sri Lanka. Please do if you can.
