Stand along with the terrorists?
This means all Muslim ministers are supporting terrorism.
No doubt on that.
Stay vigilant!
This might be the beginning of next wave.
Govt should dissolve too
This is a great victory for Patriots, RW and MR.
What the Muslim Ministers are saying is that the CID (illegally) headed by the KING should sought them out within a month. They give the KING’s CID to proceed with investigations without Ministerial hindrance.
The most intelligent, patriotic and experienced politicians in our land, Ranil and Mahinda, combined to work out this way forward.
The KING believes he can capitalise on Sinhala Buddhist extremism through his pals, Ven Galgoda Atthe Gnanasara and Ven Athureilye Rathana Thera. This does not work any longer.
Ranil, Mahinda and the Muslims combined patriotic forces to beat the KING’s racist stupidity.
Well this is symbolic. Badudeen will not resign. These politicians will vacate their respective posts only for a month but will support the government.
