Soter D’Souza:**** There are some who are busy administering sedatives on goanet to allay the fears of the minorities in Goa while the cancer is allowed to spread. We would like to make it clear that we do not generalise this malaise to the whole of any community as there is a sizeable chunk which frustrates these forces in their adventures in as much as a chunk which is absolutely naive or at least pretends to be naive and succumbs to these forces. But we are also aware of a significant chunk of writers, professionals, teachers, government servants and those from other fields that collaborate in the programs overtly or covertly for vitiating the peace in the State by spreading false propaganda against minorities****
** ** Response:**** I fully endorse your above statement. I have seen this exposed during debates on this forum.**** ** ** There are also some who pretend to run with the hares while hunting with the hounds. This helps them to portray themselves as secular minded while harbouring communal ideologies/ sympathies.They make excellent fifth columnists for the communal forces. One method is to downplay the violence, another to obfuscate the issues, yet another to whitewash the crime while giving it a spin and yet another to try and destroy the credibility of the messenger while ignoring the message.
