Bravo! No mincing of words, hard hitting delivery by a fiery lady. I wish MR did the same, straight talk, instead of “wahen oro”.

The Brazilians (BRICS) can afford to say it.
MR and his SL- Beggars cannot be choosers.

Hay Javiya, Its Chinese who helped us in every way. Idiot, what do Yankees give us? Only NGOs. We only sell them a lot of our garments. That’s all.
“Terrorism, wherever it may occur and regardless of its origin, will always deserve our unequivocal condemnation and our firm resolve to fight against it.” Well said, madam Dilma Rousseff.
But for Yankees, Velu who brainwashed 384 young Tamils to blast our buses trains and public places and kill and maim thousands of young, old and the sick Sri Lankans and also blast Rajive Gandhi to pieces was not a terrorist like Bin Laden. So, Obama asked Rajapaksa to save Velu but watched unarmed Bin Laden and his woman and a son being shot by SEALS live. What a hypocrite.

Javi
Economic hardship and dignity are two different things.
Racall Rizana’s Nafeek’s Mum? She refused Saudi money. She was poor. But, had dignity. She chose to say “No”.
You can do the same. So can SL.
PS: This is no defense of despotic, family run, corrupt regime of Rajapassa clan in SL.

Banda / September 26, 2013
Who else is there to replace MR. The Yankee puppet, Ranil? No chance, people who elect the Sri Lankan leader have rejected him outright.

These buggers, Village idiots Bandas have no clue as to what happened. How MR got elected, the Americans and the Indians coaxing VP to support MR, then got VP to bury all the heavy artillery and abandon their stronghold Kilinochchi to a beach front only to be massacred. Thereafter the mass killer Shavendra Silva is protected in the UN itself with the support of the Americans. So how can this Bugger MR speak like the Brazilian Lady with a back bone, because this bugger is indebted to the Americans.

Ben Hurling / September 26, 2013
SL is full of talented, honest people who can govern the nation. When elected properly for a limited period.
First we need to get rid of both MR and RW.
Cheers!
