All the medals Sarath Fonseka gained for patriotism were awarded by a patriotic government. And all of them are taken back by the same government by now.
But a medal awarded to Fonseka by Prabakaran who was then considered as a traitor is still found on his chest as a scar.
If somebody wants to imagine at least a little drop of patriotism, the medal that can never be taken back was awarded to Sarath Fonseka not by the patriotic government but by Prabakaran , who was murdered by himself been considered as a traitor.
The stories about patriotism are such jokes.

Sarath Fonseka is the ONLY person in Sri Lanka who can challenge MR's govt. He will never be released from custody as long as this govt is in power.

General Sarath Fonseka - because of you we Sri Lankans are living happily - we salute you sir!

Arjunas leadership helped sirizimbabe to win world cup, SF helped us to win LTTE, Both are in same boat now. MR company and sons called them traitors. We are not faithful nation to them. Most of us.

We supported when he is with the patriotic government and the people. Finally he unite with all the traitors (UNP,Mangala,USA,Norway,Tamil Alliance) who was against him when the war goes on, to get the power. Now he is a traitor too.

General is the most suitable man for leadership.

According to the constitution, there are no checks and balance against executive power except General Sarath Fonseka. (Sorry , he is no longer a General to the Army but remains so to us)

Arjuna Ranatunge - the man with a conscience, a rare find in parliament these days

Lionel Tuesday, 14 September 2010 07:52 AM

Arjuna, you are trustworthy

Arjuna is doing Justice to S.F. who has sacrifised a grat deal to save this Country. However we see comments against him calling him a traitor by some commentators who supports Govt.
