<strong>Claiming</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Right</strong> <strong>to</strong> <strong>Say</strong> <strong>No</strong><br />
developed a syndicate which helped Americans and allied forces <strong>to</strong> win<br />
<strong>the</strong> war and it was a Jew who helped design <strong>the</strong> a<strong>to</strong>m bomb used against<br />
Japan which ended <strong>the</strong> Second World War.<br />
Americans under <strong>the</strong> guilt of Holocaust of Jews gifted Israel a state and<br />
are supporting <strong>the</strong>m in <strong>the</strong>ir expansion. Why isn’t anybody reacting? –<br />
”It’s America-Supported”. There is compulsory military training and service<br />
for everyone in Israel. Can you imagine young boys killing people? They<br />
go mad while in <strong>the</strong> services. The Government sent <strong>the</strong>se people <strong>to</strong><br />
relaxation hubs. One of <strong>the</strong>m is Goa.<br />
Our Way<br />
I started my bike at 1.15pm on New Year Day, picked Vhelian Rebello (a<br />
colleague) and met <strong>the</strong> group at 1.40 p.m. We set sail and reached <strong>the</strong><br />
Pallutti House at 4.45pm. We got settled and started our bike and moved<br />
on <strong>to</strong> Anjuna and Vaga<strong>to</strong>r. This was our first day and we decided <strong>to</strong> get<br />
used <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> routes in and around Anjuna, Chapora and Vaga<strong>to</strong>r.<br />
Everyday we started at 9.00 a.m. had our breakfast and moved on <strong>to</strong><br />
Anjuna for a round in and around <strong>the</strong> vicinity. We had our interviews with<br />
vendors, local groups, Israelis and o<strong>the</strong>r foreign and Indian <strong>to</strong>urists. After<br />
lunch we would rest a bit and prepare for <strong>the</strong> Night Life. Here we would<br />
visit night clubs, discos, shacks, and move on roads. We stayed at <strong>the</strong><br />
clubs for long, had food and returned at around 1.<strong>30</strong> a.m.<br />
I must mention that when we were in Anjuna and Vaga<strong>to</strong>r we found very few<br />
groups. Hence, we had <strong>to</strong> move <strong>to</strong> Arambol, where we found many of <strong>the</strong>m.<br />
Their Way<br />
This is a tentative programme of Israeli <strong>to</strong>urists, according <strong>to</strong> my<br />
observations. With <strong>the</strong> ‘tiredness’ of <strong>the</strong> night, <strong>the</strong>y get up slowly around<br />
10.<strong>30</strong> -11.00 in <strong>the</strong> morning <strong>to</strong> have some juice and some light breakfast.<br />
Then <strong>the</strong>y come down on <strong>the</strong> beach for sun bathing. Some of <strong>the</strong>m like<br />
reading novels and o<strong>the</strong>rs practice ‘fire dance’ (includes rods and balls<br />
with strings). Later in <strong>the</strong> afternoon <strong>the</strong>y have food in some shack or a<br />
cheap hotel.<br />
