I bet that if SF tried to leave the Country, he would still be stopped at the Airport!

In times of great adversity, it is wise to step-back; lie low; take note of the situ; and then, take the lost steps, in leaps and bounds! This is what happened, during the good old days of our Kings, too!

Please do not give-up! Even President Obama lost his first election to the Senate. You have 4 million voters (actually, more) - their future is in your hands!

SF is both an OFFICER & a GENTLEMAN! Remember General Dwight D. Eisenhower of the US and General Charles De Gaulle of France? Both were 'war heroes'!

I notice that though lots of people comment on important issues, their knowledge is very basic. What they say about General Fonseka sounds like 'watti amma' gossip - really petty stuff!

I don't find a single comment published against SF is marked as good. The truth never lies beneath.....!

Abdul, please make sure that he does not leave the country before the General Elections. He has to contest the forthcoming General Elections and the verdict will be as 'galey ketuwa wagey' 'apeth naha'.
Any bets, my nose for your's?

SF will only get the JVP vote, which is less than 200,000 maximum.
The UNP will contest along with SLMC, Mano etc, etc.....

Sarath Fonseka would been able to live like a real hero forever had his selfish motives got hold of him. He has now become a disgraced "Sorry Fonseka". This man is not what he claims to be but a power hungry puppet with nothing to show for. There is a difference between becoming a leader by choice or leader by force. Latter is what is applicable to SF as he is trying to be a dictator. Our nation DOES NOT NEED democracies compromised. Man should use a little brain and keep his trashy mouth shut so he will not dig a deeper whole and show the world the vulnerability of the Sinhalese. SHAME SHAME SHAME...!

You live in peace now because of the sacrifices he's made. Don't be so ungrateful. He's wounded not just once, but thrice in the battlefield.

Mr. Tissa
Just want to know whether you are reading blindly or not. Just open your eyes and see still the same amount of peoples are supporting to him, more than the government side.
Still we are with that real hero, no one can prevent that

It is really funny, now one can not find any SF supporters to comment on any news item about him. this proves all these who wrote supporting SF was not really keen in supporting him but was to discredit the President and the SL government including politicians, officials and judiciary

I think he cant come to public now due to shame of the defeat. Ayyo SF you were a hero for us after the war. But now you are just a rotten for the country after revealing your real colors in the army life.

This the time for MR to show how compassionate he is and save the general's face and protect him by keeping him in our country. No matter how much feathers he ruffled he's still SL's war hero. If we let the US get hold of him all the war crimes fiasco might start again. This might be a good way to smack the war crime mongers in the US in the face.

Fonseka had reached the end of his ego trip. Those political parties and individuals that put together his common soup are in the process of abandoning him.
SF had brought wild allegation against Sri Lankan security forces. He should not be allowed to leave SL. We are told that all retired army officers are bound by the army rules and regulations for three years since retirement. During his campaign SF had said he would court marshal lot of high ranking officers for involving in politics when he wins the Presidency on 26th. Now that he lost it, he should be questioned about his conduct while he was CDS. And all those things that came out from his foul mouth. He should be questioned about those white flags etc and court marshal for divulging state secrets.

ITs you who were blind Thushara by all the propaganda that was done. 58% of voters have spoken. EU and Asian election monitors including your own Ranil have ruled out that the election has been free and fair except for a few minor incidents. Who is blind? you or Ranil??
