Cabal's footsie dances In his article `The Drums of War' (Herald, 23 Dec), Dr Oscar Rebello confesses that he and the GBA "danced footsie" with Digambar Kamat's government. While this may come as a shocking revelation to some, I had been writing about it in Goan electronic forums for well over a year. To those of us who had observed the strange workings of the then GBA convener Dr Rebello and the rest of the GBA cabal, it was lamentably clear that the movement had been compromised. Goans were being tricked from virtually day one by traitors within the GBA. Well, now that the truth is out, when is Dr Rebello going to apologise to the people of Goa for betraying the movement he was chosen to lead? Who gave GBA the mandate to collude with the very government it was formed to take on, the very government that has brought Goa to the edge of the precipice? Why is the Goan press silent about this major development? Rajan Parrikar, USA ----- [By the way, the correct phrase is "to play footsie." - r]
