It's better not to talk about what would be plausible based on past events but to talk about historical mistakes that led to suffering, and you guys still didn't learn anything and repeated that mistake again. You guys are always infuriated by that UNP president but think about the fact that you have always supported the CBK regime, the Maras regime, and the Siras regime, which all fell apart, and still want another alliance to avoid UNP victory. How pathetic is that?
It has always been what solution was better than the existing shit pile.. there was no "what if" when it came to Ranil on the verge of granting the ltte governing power for north & east. The fucker had to be defeated.
When Chandrika tried to do the same thing with Tsunami Sahana thing, jeppo had to go to courts & stop it. They did & walked out
When they supported hitan against mayina, the Rajapaksas had to go. Even you agree that they had to go
The problem jeppo had to face was they had to work with what they had. It was always against UNP or SLFP or Phottuwa.. it was against the same robbers just operating in different parties.
They never were on the race to gain power in the past instances. So they took what they thought was the least shitty solution out of a shit fest the country was facing each time
But now for the first time they can be considered as a major runner for power.. so they are supporting themselves for once
