The point here is we don't want a policeman with dirty hands trying to police us-simple as that, not that our hands are any cleaner but there must be some meaning to this nonsense!

jim pappa Monday, 06 January 2014 01:27 AM

US is a quack physician, Gamarala. His cure is worse than the ailment.

The noose is tightening around the necks of the Sri Lankan war criminals. The hangings will be a pleasure to watch.

My problem is, why nobody is asking this questions at any media conferences.

ABC Saturday, 04 January 2014 09:17 AM

At least the Dr cannot propose him for marriage!!

chira Saturday, 04 January 2014 03:13 AM

when did he last visit Afghanistan and Iraq?

Malin Gunawardene Saturday, 04 January 2014 07:51 AM

Ok, that is it. The writing is on the wall for SL, starting with economic sanctions.

Gamarala Saturday, 04 January 2014 07:21 AM

Why should this guy come here ? Why not investigate all the war crimes committed by the USA for the past many years. There is enough work for him in his home country. This is a fact. Just a couple of days ago it was stated that the US has been voted as the most significant threat to world peace in a survey across 68 different countries. Physician heal thyself first.

kumara Saturday, 04 January 2014 07:20 AM

No matter what you said.no matter what you done.for you are just one passenger to sri lanka.

Kattai Saturday, 04 January 2014 07:17 AM

Why not we work together with the minority to resolve the long outstanding issue. Are we arrogant or are we worried about election.

Cobra Saturday, 04 January 2014 06:48 AM

Oh, another one, just like the other one!

Suq Madique Saturday, 04 January 2014 06:44 AM

All this to divert attention away from their own human rights indiscretions.
