Tamil Tigers in London?

Tamils in the UK marked the 60th anniversary of Sri Lankan independence Feb.
5 with a hundreds-strong protest at Downing Street demanding "real freedom"
and "real rights" for the Hindu minority on the island. That same day, at
least 14 were killed in two roadside bombings in Sri Lanka. In his
independence day address to the nation, President Rajapakse said the
"challenge bestowed upon us by history is the defeat of terrorism," and
government forces had cornered the Tamil Tiger rebels in the north. His
government recently ended a 2002 cease-fire with the rebels. The protest was
called by the Tamil Youth Organisation (TYO), while the British Tamils Forum
held a photo exhibition near parliament on "the past 60 years of oppression,
ethnic cleansing and discrimination that...the Tamil community has faced at
the hands of the sovereign state of Sri Lanka." The Sri Lankan government
protested the protest, charging it was organized by AC Shanthan and Golden
Lambert. Both men have reportedly been arrested in the past under UK
anti-terrorist laws and are believed to be out on bail. "Sources" cited by
the Times of India

rights/articleshow/2756862.cms>  said the two are "prominent fund-raisers"
for the Tamil Tigers.

reports that seven students and their baseball coach were among those killed
in a suicide bombing at a train terminal in Colombo Feb. 3, the eve of Sri
Lanka's Freedom Day. In the northeastern Weli Oya region, a Freedom Day bomb
attack on a civilian bus left 14 dead and 15 injured, while a roadside bomb
elsewhere in the country left a solider dead.

for determining whether the use of a work in any particular case qualifies

criteria to qualify as an instance of "fair use". Rather, "fair use" is
determined by the overall extent to which the cited work does or does not
substantially satisfy the criteria in their totality. If you wish to use
