    What about the disgraceful - no atrocious - conduct of the govt. ministers. They deserves much more punishments.

    Was not an order of the Appeal Court to stay proceedings served on the Court Martial panel ? How can they sit ?

    This will boomerang and Gota will go thru the same fate sooner or later, once this regime is toppled.

    I my self was an army officer. I have seen SF in thick battle for 20 years like a brave hero. Never heard the heroic General being disgraceful. This is really ungrateful by a nation to its GENUINE war hero.

    becareful with that word "topple", you might be next..

    Tuesday, 20 April 2010 06:45 PM

    I agree with you uditha, he is a GENUINE war hero!

    These dictatorial actions by the government only serve to isolate Sri Lanka, even further, from the rest of the world.

    Tuesday, 20 April 2010 08:47 PM

    Now it is high time for Gen. SF to apologize for what he has done and unite, to build the country ...

    Tuesday, 20 April 2010 08:50 PM

    Jay, who cares about the rest of the world? How many times have the so-called 'rest of the world' tried to control us? Are you willing to live under the control of the 'rest of the world'?

    Tuesday, 20 April 2010 08:58 PM

    It is a pity that there are no more honest Army officers like you, in Sri Lanka's Army, to speak the truth ...

    Tuesday, 20 April 2010 09:45 PM

    Sri Lanka is fast becoming a 'fools paradise'. We will top the list, in this regard, very soon.
