Panaji, Dec 31: This New Year’s Eve, any foreign national who logs on to Al Jazeera from a cyber cafe in North Goa is an immediate suspect. The Rapid Action Force (RAF) is patrolling Goa’s silver sands and armed cops comb the beaches at night. They frisk anyone with a backpack. Constables duck below cars with tinted windows, clutching special mirrors to look for bombs. All this, when the party has not even begun. Prime Minister A.B. Vajpayee is on holiday by a pristine beach down South. But Panaji’s police have deployed an extra 100 cops plus eight commandos borrowed from the Indo-Tibetan Border Force to move in on Anjuna and Vagator beach up North. They call them the Israeli beaches — the sands of body piercing, Israeli sandwich shacks, chillum and choppy waters.
