BREAKING: BRAVO! The tiny country of Sri Lanka HUMILIATES Trump by revealing that they bravely denied his request to use their island nation for his attack on Iran.
This is what true courage looks like...
Sri Lankan President Anura Kumara Dissanayake stood up on the floor of Parliament today and delivered a dramatic speech in which he announced that his government rebuffed the White House's request to use his nation to land and park two military aircraft containing weapons and ammo bound for Iran.
Sri Lanka is strategically located in the Indian Ocean, off the coast of Southeast India. It's roughly the size of West Virginia.
According to The New York Times, the request was made two days before Trump launched his illegal war and Sri Lanka was still "evaluating" the request when the bombing began. They ultimately declined it outright, choosing instead to pursue a policy of neutrality.
The U.S. made its request at the same time that Sri Lanka was considering a request by Iran to host three of its warships in their waters. Sri Lanka eventually declined that request as well. However, they're currently hosting the survivors of an Iranian warship that was torpedoed off their coast as well as an Iranian frigate that had engine problems. They've chosen to honor human rights and dignity at the risk of invoking Trump's ire.
To put this courage into context, Sri Lanka has a population of just 22 million people and they're bravely standing up to the world's worst fascist bully. They had to know that telling Trump no could have resulted in a whole slew of deranged acts of retaliation from our demented president, but still they chose the path of peace.
This is the kind of decision that gets remembered in the history books. Trump's war will go down as one of the most evil and pointless in history. He launched it on behalf of Israel and is now mass murdering men, women, and children with no clear objectives and no end in sight. The countries that enable him will be judged harshly by future generations. Those like Sri Lanka who stood their ground will be totally vindicated.
