Army & Navy commander gone dumb ???

Considering recent war news, we can see that only the Airforce commander is speaking about the current war situation other than Minister Keheliya Rambukwella, The President & the Prime minister. The Airforce commander was also talking about the Rs. 600 million fraud in buying Mig-29. And he was speachless in 2nd attack on the world cup final day. Treasurer of the United National Party, former minister Thilak Karunarathne questions how to be engaged in an accurate war when the heads of the Army and Navy are not talking to each other.

He has brought up this question during a discussion with the "Lankadeepa" newspaper.

When questioned Karunarathne, based on what he made such a statement, and he replied saying "Anurudha Rathwatte wanted to be prince Sapumal more that triumphing war. Commander Sarath Fonseka wants him to be identified as a hero. I will end this talk from here, but I will disclose the details in the future".

However Karunarathne said that he whole heartedly hope that security forces will be able to over come the LTTE and triumph this war.

"The war is not being carried out properly. The war is being conducted on the needs of some people like Gothabaya and Sarath Fonseka. This is not fair on the part of the soldiers. The STF was engaged in operations in the east. When its head Prasanna Silva was asked to fight to capture Mannar he said that if they enter such an operation many would die because the moral of the soldiers were down after being inside bunkers and not being able to see their families. Then the army commander has replied saying "I don't care, I want to win the war." Then Silva had said that he cannot send the soldiers to die to which the commander has replied asking him to resign immediately" Karunarathne added.

Due to the lame reason that Lt. Genaral Sarath Fonseka has been appointed Army commander by the president, he does not have to protect all the bullshit done by the government. He should act according to his own heart. Because Gotabhaya Rajapakshe was just Colonel, and Lt. General should be aware that Colonel is a ranka far below Lt. General. Same goes for Wise Admiral Wasanatha Karannagoda.
