Subject: Goa's Inquisition a.k.a. Land-Grab In Goa the Portuguese land-grab during their colonization is being called (the Catholic) inquisition by Goenkars and others.
What is the name given to the land-grab by Muslim conquerors from 700-1500? What was the land-grab called when done by white settlers in USA, Canada, Australia, India and Africa? What is the land-grab called when undertaken by the European Jews in former Palestine? Have these groups intertwined the terminology with religion? No Seri! It is just called 'colonial atrocities' or 'spoils of war' etc., and that is what we should call it in Goa too!!!
