Honourble Lady During the
Honourble Lady
During the Days and months passed your 'magnanimity' was silence. You never ever extend a word of curtsy to Our Brilliant Armed Forces who were certanly known to you personally and no stranges to you; whose protection you needed badly; day and night - 24 hours a day.
Madam, you have placed yourself much higher than our UNP Leader who had not yet uttered a of curtsy; was partly responsible for the growth of longest running war of 30 years by expanding the Terrorism to become the next President of this Country. Perhaps he may unaware that his good Pal, Mr. Prabhakarn is no longer alive.
In this instance you certainly have done jusctice not to your successor but to the whole Nations Commander-in-Chief the Greatest Leader of our Gret Nation; respected and admired by the whole world. Great India has honourably presented the Rajiv Ghandi Award and this Jewel Our Great Nation; who will create History being the First Sri Lankan to be Awarded the Noble Peace Prize in the coming years!
JAYASRI LANKA MATHA!
Thank you so much for the
Thank you so much for the wishes, and thank you even more for staying away from Sri Lanka, and even more for staying in UK!.
We would be very glad if you could go to UK parliament as well, and possibly become the Prime minister there!
Surprised to see your
Surprised to see your joining the entire nation in celebrations of the great victory, which was made possible by our beloved President, His brother, Commanders of the Forces and the gallant soldiers.
Hope Mangala too will summon enough courage to do the same...
Be true to thine own conscience!
Why Jealous ? Where were you
Why Jealous ?
Where were you all this time?

Finally CBK making a congratulatory statement of the armed forces is welcome but not enough. Being a politician she should have known better that the armed forces could not have done very much without a brilliant political leadership. It was the same armed forces CBK or RW had, but could not defeat terrorism never mind containing them. What lacked was proper political leadership and vision. You allowed bigger harm fallen on the Tamil people by allowing this bunch of thugs to destroy our political leadership and conscript child soldiers. At least now this political leadership should accept the patriotic efforts of Mr. MR, and congratulate them. To err is human. But to accept mistakes and reform themselves if divine.
President Chandrika was the
President Chandrika was the first Chief of Command in this world history who said, her army could not win the war. She was responsible for the deaths of thousands of solders who perish their lives during her meaningless campaigns against tigers. I proposed the Government of Sri Lanka to conduct an inquiry on the Chandrika’s role in Commanding SL forces during her period and investigate how she led the forces, supplying of poor quality equipments and tacking commissions in arms deals. Despite of all, need to investigate her decision to issue a passport to Prabakarans daughter to study abroad.
How about throwing a party
How about throwing a party at that palace you bought in the UK with your own ancesstral money delivered to you by then Air Lanka. Shameful fraudster!
It would have been nice if
It would have been nice if this support had come earlier, but its better late tnan never as the old adage goes.
The lady has the grace to congratulate the President and the Armed Forces. Let us all who supported the President's commitment and leadership in leading the nation to this victory, also give her what is her due and acknowledge the congratulations as worthy at this time for the united stand that must be taken in moving the nation forward to an enduring peace.
Every past President in Sri
Every past President in Sri Lanka approached the problem of terrorism in different ways. Chandrika has congratulated the President and the Armed Forces. We must acknowledge that this was a sincere act.
Whatever shortcomings we see in her now, it was Chandrika who removed Ranil from power and dissolved the Parliament. Otherwise, we would not be celebrating today.
