Dear Goanetters,
I fail to see the logic in this post. The whole world recognized the
existence of Portuguese colonies in South Asia; most of the world also
realized, after World War II, that such colonies had the right to throw off
the European yoke. Portugal was the last holdout in a crumbling imperial
world.
Bernado seems peeved that the "actions of '61" were "commanded by one
keralite." Would it have made him feel differently if they were commanded by
a Goan? The air attack was spearheaded by a Goan, Bernado. I hope you feel
better now.
Regards to all,
Victor Rangel-Ribeiro

resulting in the invasion, occupation and neo colonization.
