The United States on Friday expressed disappointment over India abstaining from US-sponsored resolution against Sri Lanka at the United Nations Human Rights Council in Geneva.

"It is disappointing to us that India abstained from voting on this resolution when they voted yes for the last two years," State Department spokesperson Marie Harf told reporters.

"We have made our disappointment known to Indian officials. Beyond that, I'd refer you to them in terms of how they voted," Harf said.

India failed to stop the killings of civilians in 2009 which they could have done India failed to investigage the allegations against the Indian Politicians who were said to have planned the killing of Ragive Gandi. They have their own agenda and their men in the right places to carry the agenda. God save India.

Uncle Sam thinks and acts like a crack-pot and a thug rather than the world policeman. One needs a sane mind to be pragmatic.
