Attack on Bodh Gaya; result of broken promises-UNP
The United National Party (UNP)-led Vipakshaye Virodaya, the joint opposition group said today's attack on Bodh Gaya was a result of Sri Lanka failing to honour agreements and undertakings it had given to other countries.
UNP Assistant Leader Joseph Michael Perera addressing a news conference said the attack was a direct result of the Sri Lankan government’s failure to handle international affairs diplomatically. He said Sri Lankan Buddhists had become the target of the international community because of the actions of this government. “However, we condemn this attack which has been directed at Sri Lankan Buddhists,” he said.
Mr. Perera said the continual hostile attitude by the Sri Lankan government towards international communities and to her neighbour could result in another civil war. (Yohan Perera)

What this MP is saying is very understandable. Tamil diaspora want to make a message. How do you make one that hits the spot? Bomb the holiest place of buddhism. I cant understand how everyone here does not see that logic. Please enlighten me?

Bodgaya is in Bihar province where there is a muslim population. This can be a reaction to anti muslim in Myanmar
Has this MP studied this aspect and concluded that it is not so?3 17

See his political maturity and capabilities of political analysis of a situation. May be he does not read news papers or any international news cast. God save UNP.

This guy is an idiot and no doubt UNP can never come to power. How about the promise given by India during the accord i.e.would bring peace to Sri Lanka within a month or so. Instead Sri Lanka cracked to pieces. These are the fools who are an asset to extremists in India.

This is direct charge against India. !
Due to broken promises given by Sri Lanka, India attacked their own Bodhgaya !
How can you analyse the mentality of this "Joint Opposition Group " ?2 26

Being a matured politician, he has made a silly comment! I wonder what connection the Sri Lankan Govt's failed promises has on the attack on Bodh Gaya? Does Bodh Gaya come under Rajapakse's purview? Or, is it part of Sri Lanka? Well, for that matter no Sri Lankan even has been affected! I think he should speak with a little more responsibility!!

One should be careful to open the mouth because till then others will believe that he is a wise man but when he open his mouth he proves that he is an idiot of first grade. That is what this joker just did. Stupidity at its best. No wonder opposition cannot come up with a credible plan to counter the actions of this government.

This is a bad response, Bodhagaya is not only for Sri lankan Buddhists but for other countries as well Myanmar / Thailand Cambodia etc:. But the lesson all of us in Sri Lanka can learn from this is the reaction of the Indian people and Government, they have all totally condemned this attack and also very clearly said that "attacks on religious places will not be tolerated" Investigations are going on and the culprits will be brought to Justice. Where is this happening in Sri Lanka - Politicians and Clergy please note.
