Mr Maithreepala Sirisena was a trusted Lieutenant<\/strong> in President Mahinda Rajapakse regime. But MS found a marriage of convenience \u00a0\u00a0with someone with his endorsement\u00a0 as \u00a0preferred candidate to be the Executive Prime Minister of Sri Lanka.\u00a0 It was all underhand work, best described as
\ndeceitful,\u00a0\u00a0dishonest,\u00a0dishonourable,\u00a0disreputable,\u00a0unethical,\u00a0unprincipled,\u00a0immoral,\u00a0unscrupulous,\u00a0fraudulent,\u00a0cheating,\u00a0dubious,\u00a0dirty,\u00a0unfair,\u00a0treacherous,\u00a0duplicitous,\u00a0double-dealing.\u201d\u00a0 After 3 years, what did MS achieve? What did he deliver to the Nation? He cannot remember when Sri Lanka achieved Independence. He cannot remember how War ended.<\/p>\n

UNP since losing power in 1956, tried to turn the events.\u00a0 Prime Minister S W R D Bandaranaike was killed.\u00a0 Then a well planned conspiracy to overthrow the government of Mrs Srimavo Bandaranaike.\u00a0 To investigate these high profie cases, Scotland Yard was called in.\u00a0\u00a0 It is a common belief the real culprits were not found by\u00a0 the Scotland Yard of England.<\/p>\n

Then Lalith Athulathmadali, Gamini Dissanayake, Ranasinghe Premadasa were killed. There was no sense of urgency to call Scotland Yard at that time.<\/p>\n

The political options are very clear:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. President MS can continue to work with his chose partner in political marriage.\u00a0 No one is obstructing him;<\/strong><\/li>\n
  2. President Mahinda Rajapakse is in no hurry to grab power;<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    iii.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Hon Prime Minister Mr Ranil Wickremasinghe will be trying using all bullets at his disposal to re-ignite the economy and bring an united, unified Sri Lanka with the help of Norway and its Allies.<\/p>\n

    With only a few months left in the craddle, SLPP and Prez Mahinda Rajapakse are best advised to be tough<\/strong>, to see the natural death and carnage of this disrespectful government.<\/strong><\/p>\n

    It is heartening Mr Basil Rajapakse is back in the saddle.<\/strong><\/p>\n
