If Britain does not turn up, it would be like staging ‘Hamlet’ without the Prince. Good for these buggers to know that they cannot bluff every time and everyone.

Oh Yeah, Oh Yeah, when Maggie opened the doors to the urban population of Colombo the northerners and easterners over did all and later sent the funds to all the groups to kill their own people.
Therefore, the same political party is optimistically cautious.
Can’t blame them anyway.

Cameron’s about to get involved in the Syrian civil war with what’s left of the UK’s armed forces.
GoSL should behave completely unconcerned and cool about this threat. They should let it be known that if “Call-me-Dave” doesn’t want to come to Colombo, that’s fine with them.

An excellent idea. Nigeria is having problems with their Islamic crazies, the Boko Harum. Wole Soyinka, Nigeria’s Nobel Prize winning author says that Boko Harum must be ‘destroyed’. No talks, no negotiations, nothing. The SL Army is a bit bored and looking for a mission, so let’s help the Nigerians and send them on a ‘fraternal mission’ to Africa.

WAR IS OVER, BUT THERE IS BLATANT VIOLATION OF HUMAN RIGHTS.
MINORITY PROBLEMS REMAIN UNSOLVED.

THE POLICE IS INEFFECTIVE, AND POLITICIZED.
