The reason the world is upset with Israel is because of the +100,000 dead women and children they’ve murdered .
Not because they’re Jewish.

As a state owned enterprise what kind of garbage are we running?

[Shiva Balachandran @Paripu]

Super disappointed at the OPD service at #LankaHospitals, they should shut down OPD than run it. Literally another doctor walked in with smoother patient into the consultantion room while there was an ongoing consultation, and they charged 1500 for this shit. I got 5 medications

[Shiva Balachandran @Paripu]

And 3 reports to be taken written down in less than 2 minutes. The doctor literally had to be reminded to check for BP and fever, and what’s worse the prescription provided doesn’t have the doctors seal, it’s a generic hospital seal, how tf is this legal?

can someone explain to me why #NTB is struggling in the market post the acquistition of the #HSBC portofolio? #CSE

That’s some strong winds today, I wonder if our met department predicted it.

Two things here:
1. The ceasefire is not holding.
2. They are manipulating the markets for insider trading.

The US has seized $5.49 billion of Venezuela’s oil revenue in 2026, then offers just $150 million in earthquake aid while the UN estimates $6.7 billion in losses. It’s not relief, it’s extortion. At the same time, US has $30 billion of frozen assets while people are under rubble.

There is no rise in anti-Semitism. There is a rise in the number of people who are very angry at what Israel is doing. Your inability to separate the two is equally problematic.

If you ask me whats going to kill the Srilankan economy, would be the wide net vat on the digitally services, when we don’t have local options. What are they thinking? Just cause uber is benefitting than Pickme, what about the abundance of other digital apps that we use?

This is what terrorists look like

[LPC @landpalestine]

The UN has officially declared Gaza a genocide. And that Israel is deliberately targeting children and babies

Only took them 3 freaking years to get there

[Shiva Balachandran @Paripu]

And I got questioned at multiple counters for trying to withdraw 200k.

Rs. 190 billion alleged illegal Money Transfer: Suspect Remanded

Banks doing a great job on KYC.

[Mohamad Safa @mhdksafa]

We are officially entering “Global Water Bankruptcy”.

The UN has announced that we will start running out of clean water (drinking, cooking, showering, dishes, laundry, etc.) in the next few years.

Water won't always be free. When clean water becomes scarce, it will be privatized, priced, and controlled. You will pay for it. And those who can't pay won't survive.

Netanyahu is worse than Hitler, but no one cares because his crimes aren’t against white people.

[Shiva Balachandran @Paripu]

Today morning seeing the new metro buses honestly made me feel like the change we needed in the public systems are coming, I’d use that bus, it wasn’t crowded, it was aced and everyone looked comfortable riding it and more than ever, it looks safe!

[Nimila Hiranya @nHiRanZ]

The parking charges at CCC, OGF and Havelock are insane. It’s a racket of its own.

[Shashi Tharoor @ShashiTharoor]

Deeply shocking to read this official US statement, which contains absolutely no expression of regret or condolence for the loss of innocent Indian lives. How can a “friend” and strategic partner be so deeply insensitive?

Why couldn’t a non-compliant commercial vessel have been stopped using other, non-lethal means? Is it not possible to disable a ship's propulsion or steering without firing missiles targeted to kill civilian crew members?

Practically every merchant ship navigating these crucial waters has Indian crew on board. Are they all considered fair game for US missiles now?

This approach is unacceptable and I hope @DrSJaishankar had said so to @marcorubio.

[Mark Slapinski @mark_slapinski]

It is okay to be Jewish.

It is okay to attend your local synagogue.

It is okay to celebrate Hannukah.

It is not okay to use white phosphorus on civilians in Gaza and Lebanon.

For how long more are we going to keep these genocidal Israelis into Sri Lanka @anuradisanayake @Dr_HariniA @HMVijithaHerath??
