@MarioNawfal Trump is a big fat deceptive liar. It's now a well known fact.

Implement the death sentence

[Ranga Sirilal @rangaba]

The remains of the seven guards who were killed during the Negombo prison riot were brought to Prisons Headquarters in Welikada today for colleagues to pay their respects.

@AzzamAmeen We absolutely need the death penalty and actual safe/painless executions like in Singapore or even USA. There are prisoners that commit major drug crime, r@pe, multiple murders etc. that continue to live in public funds and the public prison systems.

[The Rounded Comrade ⭐ @theroundedcube]

@AzzamAmeen If we implement executions, 2-4% of people in prisons can probably be executed (rightfully) but it may deter about 40% of future crime and reduce prison utilisation.

I think people have lost the will to try fact-check this guy due to the volume of lies he spreads.

Also it's actually pretty difficult with this image and quite time consuming.

It just happens I had nothing better to do. /1

Hi @VraieB a friend of mine was harassed the an employee from "ADDRESS" in kollupitiya. They claim the public car park bay in front of their shop is reserved and they have paid you. Is this legal? If so how do we know this is genuinely reserved and not fake?

[The Rounded Comrade ⭐ @theroundedcube]

Very interesting thread.

Hey @grok, does Israel have an AI system named “The Gospel” that an Israeli officer admitted mostly kills women and children?

Be concise. No spin.

@NewsWireLK Capital punishment for this?

[The Rounded Comrade ⭐ @theroundedcube]

@ChilliIce1987 @NewsWireLK Use Solar Panels, capture that heat to produce more electricity. These are challenges that we have to innovate over. Look at Singapore, they didn't have water, they are also hot and yet they have some of the largest data centers.

We Are Living in the Dumbest Timeline

Donald Trump just posted a photo of a wind turbine next to birds and captioned it “Killing birds by the millions!”

He posted this without irony.

For every single bird killed by a wind turbine, nuclear and fossil fuel plants kill 2,118 birds. Coal alone kills roughly 7.9 million birds a year in the United States. Wind turbines? Between 140,000 and 328,000. That is not a defence of wind turbines.

We are living in genuinely, historically stupid times. Only rivalled, frankly, by the medieval peasants who blamed the Black Death on cats and promptly killed all the cats, which meant the rats multiplied, which meant more plague.

At least the peasants had the excuse of having no access to information whatsoever.

Trump has the internet. He chose this.

@NewsWireLK For those skeptical, did the land bridges between Singapore and Malaysia negatively impact Singapore? No, it helped them grow even faster.

Think positively, India is ahead of us in a lot of metrics and we can benefit from this. Don't have a Gota mindset.

[Emmanuel Macron @EmmanuelMacron]

I have just spoken with Lebanese President Joseph Aoun and Prime Minister Nawaf Salam.

I expressed France’s full solidarity in the face of the indiscriminate strikes carried out by Israel in Lebanon today, which resulted in a very high number of civilian casualties. We condemn these strikes in the strongest possible terms.

They pose a direct threat to the sustainability of the ceasefire that has just been reached. Lebanon must be fully covered by it.

I reiterated the need to preserve Lebanon’s territorial integrity and France’s determination to support the efforts of the Lebanese authorities to uphold the country’s sovereignty and implement the Hezbollah disarmament plan.

This is embarrassing, Delete it, President ⁦@realDonaldTrump⁩ - unless you want everyone to think you’ve lost your marbles.

[Former Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene🇺🇸 @FmrRepMTG]

On Easter morning, this is what President Trump posted.
Everyone in his administration that claims to be a Christian needs to fall on their knees and beg forgiveness from God and stop worshipping the President and intervene in Trump’s madness.
I know all of you and him and he has gone insane, and all of you are complicit.
I’m not defending Iran but let’s be honest about all of this.
The Strait is closed because the US and Israel started the unprovoked war against Iran based on the same nuclear lies they’ve been telling for decades, that any moment Iran would develop a nuclear weapon.
You know who has nuclear weapons?
Israel.
They are more than capable of defending themselves without the US having to fight their wars, kill innocent people and children, and pay for it.
Trump threatening to bomb power plants and bridges hurts the Iranian people, the very people Trump claimed he was freeing.
On Easter, of all days, we as Christians should be reminded that the son of God died and rose from the grave so that we can be forgiven once and for all of our sins. Jesus commanded us to love one another and forgive one another. Even our enemies.
Our President is not a Christian and his words and actions should not be supported by Christians.
Christians in the administration should be pursuing peace. Urging the President to make peace.
Not escalating war that is hurting people.
This NOT what we promised the American people when they overwhelmingly voted in 2024, I know, I was there more than most.
This is not making America great again, this is evil.

"Iran literally screams Death to America!"

If they did even a fraction of what we've done to them in the 20th century we would also be saying "Death to Iran"

A history lesson:

1951: Iran democratically elects Mohammad Mosaddegh, who wins overwhelmingly on his promise to nationalize Iranian oil that had been given away to the British before Iran formed as a modern country

1953: CIA and MI6 develop a plan to overthrow Mosaddegh and install a Western friendly puppet. The operation, dubbed Operation Ajax, was the first successful Color Revolution in intelligence history. They installed the Western-friendly Mohammad Reza Pahlavi as Shah (dictator) of Iran

1954: The US drafts a Consortium Agreement guaranteeing 50% of Iran's oil profits to American-friendly corporations, for 25 years

1957: The CIA and Mossad train up a secret police in Iran called the SAVAK, who operated like a KGB who would round up dissidents and torture and kill them. Eventually thousands of Iranians would be killed this way

1960-1978: The Shah, at the US's request, would purchase as many arms as possible from American defense contractors - this is why they even have F-14's today. In the 70's alone they spent $120 billion in today's dollars. Their annual revenues were around $17-25 billion, this represented almost all of their spending causing massive shortages for social services

1979: On the tail of the Shah trying to liberalize Iran socially like what's happened to America, along with 25% inflation the Iranians rise up and overthrow the Shah and install hardliner religious fanatics who oppose America. America immediately placed sanctions on Iran, who was already struggling financially. These sanctions still exist today, nearly all of their revenue is black market oil sales

1980: Sensing weakness in their neighbor, Iraq invades Iran hoping to take them over. This war would last 8 years and would end in a stalemate, despite Iraq committing 1 million soldiers. The US armed Iraq with arms, funding and illegal chemical weapons

1988: The USS Vincennes, operating in Iran territorial waters on behalf of Iraq, shoots down Iran Air Flight 655, a passenger plane with 290 civilians, all killed. The US would later go on to hand out medals to the crew of the Vincennes. This would be one of the major reasons for a UN resolution finally ending the war

1988-present: The CIA and Mossad have attempted many Color Revolutions, at least 4 documented, the most recent being just before the current conflict. Iran quickly crushes these attempts, often leading to the deaths of civilians caught up in them

Yes, they hate us. Yes they kill our troops in the region. Yes they fund proxies that attack Israel

They have good cause to do so

@x10nd @HarshadeSilvaMP @narendramodi But Sri Lanka for sure needs increased integration with India. e.g. Sri Lankans should be able to pay UPI using LankaQR. Indians should be able to come work in Sri Lanka, with a work permit. Taxes on food and vehicles from both sides need to be removed.

[The Rounded Comrade ⭐ @theroundedcube]

@x10nd @HarshadeSilvaMP @narendramodi I think India buys Iran oil at a discount and sells the refined product at a fair price to Sri Lanka. Sri Lanka gets access to oil at a discount and India makes a profit. It's a win-win transaction all round.
