After their plan to sabotage the election campaign of the Common candidate by joining the common opposition movement failed, Bodu Bala Sena (BBS) organisation today pledged their support to Mahinda Rajapaksa and said they would use their maximum strength to ensure the defeat of Maithripala Sirisena.
Gnanasara
Their stance was officially announced today during a media breifig as promised earlier during the week, where they pledged their support to Mahinda Rajapaksa. BBS General Secretary Galagoda Atte Gnanasara speaking at the media breifing said they will not be joining the UPFA but would conduct a seperate campaign in support of Mahinda Rajapaksa.
He said they would travel around the country to ensure Mahinda’s victory since they believe hs is a ‘national leader’. During the breifing he also invited Maithripala to return to the government and criticized those who have pledged their support to the common opposition movement, stating they have fallen prey to an international conspiracy.
Although they were planning to pledge their support to common candidate Maithripala Sirisena’s campaign upon instructions given by the regime, their plan fell through when Maithripala refused to engage in discussions with the organisation.
Their plan to support Maithripala was exposed by Colombo Telegraph and several other media and reliable sources close to Basil Rajapaksa said the plan was to get the BBS to support Maithripala in order to mislead the minority voters.

I understand the euphoria for kicking BBS away from the MS Campaign. Well done indeed!
The regime’s handlers of BBS will now seek to implement Plan B for BBS monkeys.
Balu Sena will now drum up horrific ethno-religious racism all over Sri Lanka. Yet again. In the run up to the election. Many idiots will buy into it.
We neeed to preapre ourselves for a lot of racially incited violence.
The silver lining is BBS monekys will eventually end up in jail after the elelction.
Cheers!

Govinda “Oh now the minority groups can have some relief”
But the Sri Lanka Muslim Congress is yet to show their hand.
It will be really hilarious if they support Mahinda and indirectly the BBS.
But what can they do Mahinda got thier files!

BBS Cries Sour Grapes! – Pledges Support To Mahinda After Maithri Ignores Them
Is is Between Good and Evil.
Mr. Matripala Siriusena has enough intelligence to recognizance the Mara, aka MaRa’s agents, and shills.
BBs is one such agent.
Let BBS rot and stink in the MaRa Cesspool, and end up on Apaya.

@Govinda
Not only minority groups but all of Mother Lanka can now breathe a sigh of relief.A great majority of Sinhalese Buddhist hate this Gandaya who has brought shame on us as a people and on our Noble faith.
Well done Hon.Sirisena for a very rational decision in not meeting this mad man and therefore avoiding falling into a trap.

MR, GR, & BR need your support now more than ever before. After all you distanced all the minorities specially Muslims, Christians along with other morons. Now don’t try dissociate from MR for at least you should be able that fool Dilantha to vote for MR. who else would listen to DRUNKERD hiding under yellow robe.

Who are you trying to kid Lorenzo?
Here is your comment at LW
This is a BIG move for MR.
But it will NOT be very popular because the SURVEY conducted by BBS only approved
MR – 13.5%
MS – 30.3%
To be independent – 51.2%
You can access this survey in bodubalasena website.
86.5% of BBS supporters don’t support MR. Now even Christians will NOT vote for MR despite POPE blessing him. Sinhala Christians are 5% of the population.
Ananda is right. BBS is a liability for MR.

Any politician worth his salt would keep well away from the support from BBS and Galagoda Atte Gnanasara Thera. The number of votes gained is same as from gangsters but the votes lost is many fold.

Lanka Muslim, UK / November 27, 2014
The BORU BLABBERINS SERVANTS of the MAARA REGIME tried their trick again by pretending to support Maithripala. MS must be congratulated for not swallowing the ‘guli’ that MR and family tried to feed him using the BBS.
MR and family will try all available tricks as they cannot exist without Govt. power. If they are out of power they will stand to be the most ever disgraced political family in the world who have abused power to the maximum.

THE BALU SENAS HAVE NOW VIRTUALLY GIVEN MITHRI THE VICTORY ON A PLATTER.THANKS GANDASARA, FOR ONCE YOU HAVE DONE A YEOMAN SERVICE TO THE NATION.
ABASARANI TO YOU,MARA,GORA,BARA AND THE GANG. IT’S PAY BACK TIME AS STATED IN BUDDHISM,HINDUISM,CHRISTIANITY,ISLAM AND NATURAL JUSTICE TOO.
MURDER,RACISM,NEPOTISM,CORRUPTION AND ALL BAD THINGS COMES TO AN END.THE BEST PART IS MARA BROUGHT IT UPON HIM PRE-MATURELY BY PROCLAIMING EARLY ELECTIONS.
SURELY,THE ONE ABOVE HAS POWER OVER ALL,OTHERWISE WHO ELSE COULD PUT ON MARA’S HEAD THAT, HE NEEDS TO UN SHACKLE THE NATION IN ADVANCE AND GIVE THEM RELIEF FROM HIS TIGHT GRIP. HE (THE ALMIGHTY) IS REALLY GREAT, ISN’T HE.
TAKE A DEEP BREADTH AND PONDER FOR A MOMENT. SURELY, THINGS WILL FALL IN PLACE FOR YOU TOO, IF YOU HAVE SOMETHING LEFT UPSTAIRS. I HAVE MY DOUBTS THOUGH.

Say your My3ee wins
The fun will begin when the CJ announces that Passa can continue till his term finishes in another 2 years. Then like safe zone the leaders disappear. You have no DNA of the west which is fully occupied. Its only if the muslims are attacked that the world is prepared to act quickly- that is the level of today’s democracy.
South Block did not want to even recognise Fonny (but just laughed oh we know that crap) before elections so are they recognising My3eee at present??
What do you do then in Yakko Land??
Freedom is never given it is plucked and ceylon got it by accident like after 9/11

Alhaj Tariq Mohammad / November 27, 2014
This shows how the Rajapaksas and BBS have planned this for ages and make division among the masses on religious lines.
The drama was just unfolded, there will be more to come at the end of the campaign like Gota slaughtering Gnanasara to get the maximum advantage and sympathy votes for Mahinda etc.,
Also Rajapaksa will divide the maha Sangha with JHU Vs BBS lines too.
Now lets see what the Muslim leaders of the country like Hakeems/Azwars/Mustapas/Muzzamils etc will do – are they going with the millions of Rajapaksas and sell their Muslim soul or going against the MARA regime and support the common candidate.
This will be the last chance for Muslims in Sri Lanka, imagine MaRa Version3 with the full backing of BBS and other extreme forces against the Muslims Inshah Allah all the Muslims in the country should come into a single front to say a firm NO to MaRa and BBS morons.

Tony Gomes / November 27, 2014
BBS is with Mahinda…. All the Muslim leaders should resign immediately. Hakeem, Fowzie,Azwer,Faizer and others, if you guys want Muslims to support you in the next general election….. LEAVE NOW.
TNA and other parties will not join MR. So majority of the minority votes will go to MS.

who needs rattons.are you setting a precedence for future scumbags and then condone.

an interesting question…..in many comments K A Sumanasekera was trying to brand BBS as pro diaspora and UNP chaps when they tried to join Maithreepala Sirisenas camp…..but now what cant K A Sumanasekera say….that MR is a also in diaspora payroll?
please refer to K A Sumanasekeras ealeir post here

How cool… BBS Gnanissara, Vellala Sambandan,Walauwa Ranil, Balangoda CBK, NGO Paikiosothy,Bishop Chikera,JHU Champika,Venerable Rathna,and Video Links to Suren Surendran and Reverend Emmanuel to address the audiences. . Professor Wijesinghe probably do the Skype unless Rankin and Sisson have provided special Satellite facilities. What an array of kick ass orators Sand Sira’s Bro is endowed with .

MR will get less votes than he would have otherwise. I remember the BBS promised 5,000,000 votes from their bases in 5000 temples. The presidential election would be referandum on the BBS and the temples associated with it.
The real, pious Buddhists in this country have to take a stand now, on what they want Sri Lanka to be- a pious and decent nation with values defined by Buddhism or a pariah nation condemned by all decent folk.

How quickly they changed their little minds when they were ignored by the opposition! It simply shows that they were simply trying to put a spoke in the wheel, a move that would have favored the ruling regime.
The Rajapaksa’s deserves these filthy vermin. They are going to be a curse more than a blessing.
Now the opposition will be able to rally the votes of the minorities, and have a more credible opposition.
The thugs and goons can remain in the Rajapaksa camp, and complete the whole picture.
The Rajapaksa’s are reaping what they have sown.

BBS will further dismantle and create friction within UPFA.
There are many MPs in UPFA who oppose BBS and this could create animosity and hatred within UPFA.
Also BBS could start communal and religious riots and create further frictions among communities during elections.
My view is to stop BBS from conducting any meetings or rallies or propaganda during election campaigns as BBS could repeat another Aluthgama and Beruwala Fiasco throughout the country.
Beware of those who let the mad dogs out.
/

Mohamed Marzook / November 28, 2014
There are some comments about some of the Muslim politicians (I never call them leaders as they are not the elected choices of the Muslim people). The forthcoming elections will be a deciding situation for them. Most of them will end-up in political wilderness. It could be observed that there are a number of young Muslims, honest and energetic, emerging as politicians and they are shunning the Muslim parties and the traditional politics. One such group in the National Front for Good Governance (NFGG) under the leadership of Abdul Rahuman and Najah Rauf Mohamed. The latter rendered great selfless service to Sri Lanka Muslims in the UK when he lived in the UK. NFGG too has joined the opposition coalition. Wish them all the best.
/
whywhy / November 28, 2014

What we don’t have today in Srilankan politics is,a
pressure group representing all communities with
genuine interest in protecting all communities from
exploitation and manipulation by major political
parties.If a Muslim will form such an organization
and act for the general well being of all
communities,so much better for communal harmony.
The purpose must be to serve true democratic values
in a multicultural set up and nothing beyond that.
