We got 15 votes (against US resolution), they (USA) got 24 votes, 8 abstained praising Sri Lanka. 15+8 is 23 for us, 24 for white (USA). White won by only 1vote majority. 0:37 So, Mr. Obama, at the end, there is no dance and there is no drum either. No body can interfere in this country. But I regret about our bastards who were born here betrayed us in Geneva. Sunnda Deshapriya, Nimalka Fernando, Poddala Jayantha; I am the one who chased Poddala Jayantha from Sri Lanka.

If you get caught to me in Sri Lanka, the one who break your limbs in public will be Mervin Silva (Mervin himself), I tell this with responsibility (to: Sunanda Deshapriya, Nimalka Fernando, Poddala Jayantha and Paikiasothy Saravanamuttu, claimed to be 'traitors). 1:39 No matter who plot against me, this is my country, your country. I am a good Sinhalese Buddhist. I wont allow any one to sell my Sinhalese-Buddhistness. If you (gathering) say that "you should leave Mervin", then I give you every one a leaf of beetle, bow and take farewell. 2:12 My parliament seat is given by you, it will remain until 2016. My ministerial post was given by President (Rajapaksa). it will remain unchanged until he is in power. 2:33 My party electorate organizer post -- not only Kelaniya seat (now in-charge of) and I expect to be in-charge of one or two more electorates "
