No Fire Zone: The Killing Fields of Sri Lanka

This documentary has done an excellent job defying extreme efforts by the Sri Lanka government to suppress the truth from coming out. I know at times the producers have received death threats from the same Government. But with all this they had the courage to bring this film out.

This film has triggered the international war crimes investigation against Sri Lanka by the UNHRC. Hopefully this film will also serve as evidence in the investigation and help bring the culprits in front of the Law and serve Justice to the victims of this indigestable truth.

Although viewer discretion is advised, everyone who stands up for Human Rights must watch this Documentary.

No Fire Zone: Sri Lanka Killing Fields truthfully exposes war crimes and crimes against humanity against the civilian population of the divided island. Having endured over 26 years of brutal civil war between the Government of Sri Lanka and the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam, the Northern province has went from war-zone to virtual prison for the victims of the war. Channel 4 conducts a thorough investigation as to who the culprits were, and why they are hiding from an independent, international, investigation as to what exactly happened at the end of the ethnic conflict in 2009. View discretion is strongly advised.

This Authentic documentary depicts the war crimes and the genocide of one of the oldest ethnic national Tamils. It's an perfectly compiled evidence of War crimes and crimes against humanity perpetrated by the Sri Lankan army during Jan - May 2009 which includes inhuman activities like, brutal killings, rape, forced disappearances carried out by the srilankan army in the name of war.

Srilanka is receiving condemnation from all over the world and from the leaders and countries which supported him in the war. This video shows just a glimpse of the massacre unleashed by the srilankan government headed by rajapakshe. Just because the govt. denies that there is no such killings committed by the army men, the truth cannot be buried.

Many of the videos released by channel 4 are not shot by them but were made by the army men themselves using their mobile cameras. Channel 4 just paid to get the video or the army person was guilty of his act. If the srilankan govt alleges that they are fake, then they should technically prove that they were not real and can file a petition against channel 4.

I urge all the people in the wold who has a bit of humanity in heart to just view this once and make your own judgment about whether it is fake or not. We thank Channel 4 of this video inspite of all hinderences from the SriLankan regime

This is a well created documentary from videos taken during the spring of 2009. The sequencing of videos taken by different witnesses and the narration are excellent. The videos were taken by both the victims as well as Sri Lanka army personnel (trophy videos).

Some have estimated the civilians deaths to be around 40,000. Other estimates are much higher. About 150,000 are unaccounted form, over 99% were civilians.

Sri Lanka has questioned the validity of the videos. Chanel 4 has hence had all the photos and videos analyzed by independent experts, ruled unequivocally authentic. Sri Lanka is also resisting multiple calls for independent investigations.

Some scenes are gory. Viewer discretion recommended.

But it is must see for anyone interested in knowing the cruelty that occurred in a country that prides itself as 'Buddhist'!

This is a film that pulls no punches. Watching these innocent people killed in the cover of "Killing the terrorists" is haunting and horrifying because it is based on events that actually happen. These people trying to stay alive from day to day is a sobering viewing experience. Glad that CH4 was able to bring this atrocities committed by this cowardly regime to light. Hope these voiceless people will get justice someday.

Some of the young men and women were blind folded, hands tied and then executed. These are inhuman instincts.People are killed anywhere and everywhere without respite and their corpses abandoned without proper burial or funeral. Singala army's motto when it comes to human life - "Kill'em all"
