I was surprised and aghast over the comments that Srilankan Prime minister made about Hillary's allegations that rape is used as a weapon of war in countries like sri lanka...
The prime minister of Srilanka, head of a country has replied reminding Hillary of Monica issue..
Prime Minister Ratnasiri Wickramanayaka, in a live radio interview this morning, said US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton seems to have forgotten the Monica (Lewinsky) episode and should focus on her own backyard instead of making allegations of women being abused in other countries
Shame on you Prime minister... Shame on your country

Clinton has forgotten the Monica episode- PM Wickramanayaka
Prime Minister Ratnasiri Wickramanayaka, in a live radio interview this morning, said US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton seems to have forgotten the Monica (Lewinsky) episode and should focus on her own backyard instead of making allegations of women being abused in other countries.
The US Secretary of State, who had stirred controversy last week after making a statement saying women had been raped in war countries that were at war including Sri Lanka, is the wife of former President Bill Clinton who was at one time himself in the spotlight after being accused of sexually abusing his staff member Monica Lewinsky.
The Premier noted that while the matter concerning the statement made by the US Secretary of State has now been settled with the US State Department issuing a clarification the allegations made by her was serious in nature and could not be taken lightly.
Prime Minister Ratnasiri Wickramanayaka also said that former US Ambassador to Sri Lanka and current US Under secretary of State Robert Blake was attempting to present a war crimes report on Sri Lanka and bring charges against some Sri Lankan government officials.
He recalled that during his tenure in Sri Lanka, Blake had voiced displeasure over the road closures for VIP movements and had at one time even walked from the Colombo Embassy to another location just to draw attention to his stand.
The Premier noted however that while Blake was taking that stand, in the US at times even a whole town is closed when the US Presidential motorcade was traveling along that route
The prime minister should remember that
Rape is different from sex between two consenting parties.
Personal life is different from political life.
He should above all remember that he is prime minister of a country and has to show atleast some level of decency in making comments..
I call for a APOLOGY from the prime minister of Sri lanka...
Hope my Kossack's would join me...
