"Fool me once, shame on you; Fool me twice, shame on me".

Please General, we Loved you as a Brave Soldier & the Commander of our Victorious Army. We didn't like how you couldn't get along with the Navy or the AirForce. But, there's no denying the fact that you were one of the Pillars (along with Mahinda & Gotabaya) on which the War was won!

It's a shame that you were egotistical enough to mistake the adulation you got from the general public to be something more than that (or they like you more than this president). It's a shame that you got conned into politics against the very people who made you a hero (promoting you just before you were to be retired and faded into the shadows), by a opposition so bankrupt as ours! It's a shame that you thought the majority view in Colombo & among the most elite in this country are actual representation of the views of the masses (FYI: it's not!)! .. and it's a shame that you believed the support you got from outside was an indication of their Love for you !

Don't do that again! Don't go shopping (kade yanta) for the bankrupt politicians of this country! Don't get into politics and muddy your name forever! Actually stay away from it as far away as possible! Work for the betterment of people from outside (there are many ways you can do that).

Stay a hero! We Love You! But, you don't make a good politician! Sorry!

Don D
