"Viking Solheim, stop goreing Sri Lanka! It is now high time to shed your antlers and disappear in your icy northern forests to howl with the wolves!

1. The ‘whites’ are known as open hearted
Though they are sometimes under rated.
One such having a cussed aim,
Is a ‘white’ called Erik Solheim.
Who tries to tarnish the army of our nation
With clear rengeance for no apparent reason.
2 An open enemy may be excused,
But not one who pretends and spreads false news.
3. Erik Solheim tries to hide the fire, but,
What will he do to the smoke Bloody Nut?

1. "With Sollys cunning he could charm a bird off a tree
2. "Oh! what a face, he’s a disgrace to be shown in any public place".
3. "His motive is - "Divide and rule"

The aim of Solheim is not to defame Sri Lanka for he is not insane, but to claim the rights of affected Sri Lankans.

Mr. Soleheim, there is an ideal job for you here—leading the Opposition.
