The inmates at this rehabilitation centre seem to be dressed in a kind of uniform (ie same colour and style of dress). Is there a reason for this? A ministerial visit would have enhanced their mood during the festive season.
Let us hope that these unfortunate victims of war have plenty of time to read and develop insights into the nature of war, the roles of politicians and military personnel, how psychological operations work, the post traumatic stress syndromes that afflict them etc.
Lasantha Baba…!
Haven’t you ever seen any injured service person in a paper or TV…? Are you also a srilankan..? If so you must be ashamed of yourself about your EMPTY common sense..!
Service persons usually dress colour striped Pyjamas when under treatments but these photos show they are given Batic sarongs & shirts as new year dress..!
And they’ve PRACTICAL knowladge & good insight of war as war heroes 1000times than you.! Who’re you here to talk about their insight of war..? What’s your nonsense joke talk, at least you’ve no insight of their dress..?!?
They don’t need any f..king insight of war more & only they must give a good meaning to rest of their lives according to the Buddhism. To understand the life as it is & develop the MIND to increase understanding.
What a senseless man you telling those disabled war heroes to develop insight of war..? Is that not enough their commitment for the war..? Your comment above is just a PIG SHIT & keep it only to you, because the bullshit & chickenshit are much useful…!!!
