‘The Enemy Within’
The government is being put into difficulties today not by external enemies but those who are within the government posing as friends but are really hostile to the government says the Leader of the JHU Ven. Omalpe Sobitha Thera.
Speaking at a ceremony held at Thorakolayaya Maha Vidyalaya at Embilipitiya Ven. Sobitha Thera said, “There is a story in Buddhist Literature of a son who hit his father with a pole when a mosquito settled on his head. This story perfectly suits the present government. There are those who are hostile to the government within the cabinet. They jeopardize the government by plundering lands from Wilpattu National Park and other forest reserves. The government has not realized the gravity of this.
The other group is those who got involved when UNP Parliamentarians visited Hambantota. They dig the grave of the government.”
Such statements are being made by all political parties in UPFA government. Only the President keeps away from making such statements. Even members of Rajapaksa family say there are enemies within the government who pretend as friends. However, all these enemies and their friends perch together to oppress the people.
