In Lalith's view, Fonseka fought the entire war by himself, yes just by himself. The following Tamilnet post may explain Lalith's inner thinking.

However, the breaking point came when Sri Lanka trashed the U.S. plan to dramatically intervene in the last stages of war (with all the Hollywood dramatics of Marines landing in the battle zone to rescue a Prabhakaran and his pals in distress).

Is this true?

Gadaffi and Saddam were more jubilant than this.

Are we seeing a new SF ?

I won t take revenge- SF
SATURDAY, 26 MAY 2012 07:24

Former Army Commander Sarath Fonseka who was released this week said that he would not take revenge against those who had put him through an atrocious ordeal over the past two and a half years.

Speaking to the Daily Mirror Mr. Fonseka claimed that President Mahinda Rajapaksa and Defence Secretary Gotabaya Rajapaksa were directly responsible for the suffering he endured.

I will not take revenge against them and the vicious acts they committed against me. I feel very sorry for them because I expected them to act like good statesmen, yet instead they took advantage of the situation and the powers that they had been given, he said.

He claimed that the members in the government alliance were unable to voice their differing opinions under the rule of the President. They are in a worse prison than I was in, they can t speak and they can t hear you can classify them any way you like, he said. Mr. Fonseka further insinuated that there were cracks appearing in the government and members of the government alliance were likely to soon turn on the President and the axis of power he has created around his family.
