So who supplied the arms that helped Sri Lanka commit virtual genocide on their Tamil ethnic minority? For fuck's sake... This money is going straight into more US/UK military spending, that's how the game works. BBC news is totally disgraceful these days. Sad!

BBC NEWS | Business | IMF grants Sri Lanka $2.6bn loan
The International Monetary Fund has approved a $2.6bn (£1.6bn) loan to help Sri Lanka weather the global economic crisis and rebuild war-torn regions.
The first $322m tranche of the 20-month loan is available immediately, with the rest subject to quarterly reviews.
Britain and the US abstained from the vote, citing humanitarian concerns during the government's recent fighting against Tamil Tiger rebels.
