June 13: West Pakistans Army has been systematically massacring thousands of civilians in East Pakistan since the end of March. This is the horrifying reality behind the news blackout imposed by President Yahya Khans government since the end of March. This is the reason why more than five million refugees have streamed out of East Pakistan into India. risking cholera and famine. Mr. President. this article is entitled simply "Genocide." That word describes what is taking place in East Pakistan. I quote again from an article entitled "Why the Refugees Fled." also published in the London Sunday Times of June 13: The bonecrushing military operation has two distinctive features. One is what the authorities like to call the "cleansing operation:" a euphemism for massacre. The other is the "rehabilitation effort." This is a way of describing the moves to turn East Pakistan into a docile colony of West Pakistan.
