Everyone will fear former Defence Secretary Gotabaya Rajapaksa if he comes to power, Deputy Minister Ranjan Ramanayake said yesterday.
Ramanayake came out with this sentiment in response to a statement made by Minister Mangala Samaraweera that he fear's former Defence Secretary.
"Won't all of us run away if we find out that there is a person here with a bomb? Aren’t you afraid of Mahasona," he asked journalists.
Quoting former Minister Mervyn Silva, Ramanayake said the former had publicly stated that Mr. Rajapaksa was behind the white van drama during the previous regime. Also he recalled that Mr. Rajapaksa himself had publically stated several years ago that he would hang Field Marshal Sarath Fonseka. He said it is obvious that many become scared of former Defence Secretary when one considers the given circumstance.(Yohan Perera)

We need a Dictator! Muppets can't rule this country. That Dictator is only Gotta.

Christians and Catholics will make the so called Buddhist dictator go missing in USA.

Why fear? You need to fear if you have anything to hide. You need to fear if you engage in wrong acts. You need to fear if you act against law. You need to fear if you evade tax. Yiu need to fear if you engage in criminal activities. If you do not engage in any of these acts and don't break country's law no need to fear. We want a strong leader, a visionery who can lead the country with a clear economic goal. A leader who is not afraid to take right decisions. A leader who loves the country and its citizens irrespective of their religion or ethnicity. Mr Gotabhaya Rajapakse has proved his true capabilities and class to become a real National Leader. He is the only hope. So he should become the next leader.

Tamils do not forget that GB bundled them in buses in Colombo and sent up north. International community condemned this separatist behaviour by GB so they were allowed to return.
