Disgusted Real Citizen Wednesday, 04 March 2026 04:53 PM

Shut up, you parasite. You and your disgustingly greedy blood-thirsty family and cronies (both former and present) have destroyed this country and have NO RIGHT to make any comments! The best thing the lot of you together with your entire family tree can do is to get off the face of this earth!

Without proper proof and extensive inquiries how can the govt say whether the Iranian ship was hit within Sri Lanka’s Exclusive Economic Zone. Stupid statement. If they were in govt will they say within hours who was responsible and how it came about. Stupidity unbounded.

Ok, it it is true, what is Sri Lankan government can do? Declare war against US? Complain to UN? Expel US ambassador? Recall our diplomats?

If the ship was hit within Srilanka's water, Namal would definitely declare war with USA. Hurray !!!

When Hon. Namal sir asks a question, the government is duty bound to answer him ASAP! Wasting a minute of this young enlightened leaders life is a crime against humanity. Get us the answers Namal sir, without you probing, this government will keep everything hidden! You're our only hope.

If it's within Sri Lankan territory, what are you going to do? Retaliate?

Chichi's Iron Dome defence Wednesday, 04 March 2026 06:47 PM

Hey Naha Molaya, assuming it was indeed hit what are you or anyone going to do about it ? Get chic chi to use his supposed Astronaut genius and build some sort of defence mechanism perhaps ? Aney, Nikang, palayang bung Yanna. We saw how like a clown you were sight seeing in Britain trying to pretend that you were invited to the British Parliament to fool some of the masses and your corrupt followers. With every passing day you're becoming an even bigger joke than you already are .

Sambo Wednesday, 04 March 2026 07:08 PM

Please ask that from those who hit the ship as no one from the parliament was not involved.

josh Wednesday, 04 March 2026 10:56 PM

since you have expressed solidarity with the Iranians openly, why don't you and pappa go and do an investigation in the seas? May be then you will know that it was outside the SL economic zone. Even if it was within our maritime borders what can we do? Go and fight USA ? surely you know how bankrupt this country was (thanks to your family) and what our resources are???? Shouting in parliament (along with the leader of the opposition who has become a joker) brings no value to the issue.

Namal, You need proper education. You came to power on preferntial vote. You are not legally came to power. Shut your mouth.

Look at the trashy comments here. Right or wrong anyone has a right to question the government in a democracy. Only the ayatollahs will suppress even the slightest comment disagreeing with them. Unfortunately the NPP/JVP are champions in that trade!

Please check whether UNCLE BASIL alias KAPUTA was involved in this because he was once the Economic GURU.

Lontha Thursday, 05 March 2026 08:12 AM

Actually, the need of proper education for rest of the country is most important, as these kinds of retards target and gather similar groups of people making them believe they talk sense, as there are too many of illiterate people who fall for these third grade political vendors
