In 1961 lead by tyrant Can Death the nemesis of Ghenghis, many Goans faced atrocities which were rightly recorded by Leo Lawerence in his book called Nehru Seizes Goa. Unfortunately the writer failed to garner many other incidents of rape and crimes committed by the illegal invaders, which have gone unrecorded in this courageous and well documented version which every Goan should read. To cite an example there is some research chap in the United States who looks after birds, this guy after reading excerpts of this book and other documents has now accepted the illegal occupation of Goa. Therefore people who make weak statements should take a look at this publication before venturing into illusions. Going back to this tyrant Can Death, it is believed that after invading and occupying Goa had his hands placed in his pockets because he was unable to rule Goa. This was because of the Portuguese spoken in government circles. To overcome this, the trickster force introduced English, there were traitors like that of a famous mine owner who started the newspaper called Nav Hind. (New Backside), radio programs were curtailed. Today we know the situation of Goa. It is time to change our language that the ghantis don't know.
The Gestapo indian army harasses our fisherman and prayer at Anjediva our scared island is no more allowed under these new colonizers. BC ________________________________ Dear all, Just that you know, I have requested Santoshbab, to send me the zipped file he has in his possession. I will review it in detail and post my initial views in response......after a fortnight or so. Must say that, having personally witnesed politics from a close range (in Goa) and also the tricks that Journos knowingly and unknowingly play, I start off by being very suspicious. While one of my disciplines has taught me to consider every one 'innocent unless proved guilty', I use the reverse principle when it comes to Politicians and Journos. No apologies. In this regard, while I do my homework, and don't know where exactly the chips will fall, I invite those who are able to, to find some corroboration in Lisbon.....wrt the facts as known there and the background. If it is possible, would someone advise Which Goan leaders were affected? BTW: I have NO illusions about the benevolence / Malevolence of any rulers who have banduks at their disposal....before or after 1890. i start by asking myself .....but WHY1890? Were there all Portuguese Saints living in Goa before that year? AND Is not 1890 the year which sparked the writing of the previous Portuguese national anthem "A Portuguesa"? Perhaps, I will be able to determine, albeit for my own sake, why suddenly in 1890........news reports about Portuguese Goa started to emanate from British India ..... Is it possible that "Dal mein Kuch Kala hai" ? Well let me leave it at that for now. jc Pardon any Typos.
