There will be a time soon the citizens go begging for white vans.
Bloody monks and priests running around for months to change the governments with their tails up must be really scared shXXt even to utter a word. What hypocrisy!!!!
Bring on a THOROUGH CLEAN UP! It should be no different to like in 2005 – 2008 era when the country was saturated with heinous criminals, criminals who would gladly sell their mother for gain, yes except these vile underworld criminals, for huge gains at that, facilitated LTTE ‘safe houses’ in Colombo and environs, which made it all the more easy for LTTE terrorists to carry out mass bombings of civilian “soft targets” (i.e. supermarkets, buses, trains, office buildings, etc etc.). Yup, once that THOROUGH CLEAN UP was done, one day we all woke up to – NO more bombs in the city!
