Now this is a fast I can agree with for 2 reasons: 1. Monks need to do this more often, their 'body language' makes it mandatory! 2. It's time Gota came up with proof that he's no longer a US citizen.

Is it fast until death or end at first bite of a mac? One less religious guru is a bright light for mankind.

Gota always plays for a draw - never a win. Whether in SL or US courts, face to face debates, he is avoiding. Or get proxies like Namal or Ali Sabry to bat for him. This also he will wriggle out.
