Post Script June 13 2015 Walter Rodney and that Hamilton Green Award- Errol Harry-London UK . That : 1. the murderous racist and desperate and now thankfully ancient ppp- ee Regime could dare to use Walter Rodney’s Assassination by the Burnham Dictatorship an established fact-as a 2015 Electioneering ploy to bash Assassin Forbes Burnham’s PNC and the APNU Coalition is outrageous but not surprising. 2.That pre-elections they could spend literally billions of Guyanese dollars on their political Commission of Inquiry on the Panel (& a Guyanese Journalist $6000 US a month!) speaks for itself. With all respect due to the Rodney Caribbean Commissioners this reeks of the kind of low-down bribery which we have become accustomed to associate with this putrid cabal. Freddie Kisson is quite correct : Professor Pat Rodney Walter’s widow should not have touched this lot with a barge pole ; it sullied Walter’s name and legacy in the process . 3.That the new Granger Govt would want to derail this politicised gravy train as soon as possible is also quite right -giving them one month to wrap it up. IF Only after their May 11 election victory ,they did not immediately take a decision to present one Hamilton The Hammer Green with the nations Highest Civilian Honour. 4..Green, Burnham’s cousin and currently Mayor of Georgetown was never a mere a bona fides ‘civilian’ Minister in the Burnham unelected Dictatorship but like ‘General’ Burnham himself was a civilian General who commanded his own private Death squad ‘Army’ of thugs. 5. This was yet another Praetorian Guard to supplement the other 5 official Army Forces -all in the service of a super militarised Neo- colonial state of which General Granger now President, was himself a part . 6..Walter Rodney and the WPA‘s aim to remove the Dictatorship was therefore cut out. This historical task must not be denied but viewed as a Patriotic Duty worthy of recognition in exactly the same terms as those who fought and died to remove the ppp-ee Regime today. 7..Crum-Ewing today was Walter Rodney and many others yesterday. It is they who should be honoured not Hamilton Green. Green is entitled to be rehabilitated but only after admitting and apologising to the Guyanese Nation before a Truth Commission. 8.. Recall that minutes before the explosion which took Walter Rodney’s last breath at 8pm on Friday 13 June 1980, this Hamilton Green was seen speeding down Brickdam opposite St Stanislaus College in the direction of Camp Street and Hadfield Streets where the bomb in the walkie-talkie trap set by Sgt.Gregory’s Smith and arranged by Burnham’s Chief of Intelligence Chief Godwin Mcpherson’s (now RIP from Berbice) was sprung. 9..Whether one cares about History or events of 13 June 1980 or not , this untimely ill-advised and outrageous Award to Green is the moral and political equivalent of the ppp awarding the imprisoned Raja Khan with Guyana’s highest award. 10..In prison in New York Khan is like Green was a ‘civilian’/ General who headed the ppp ‘s own Phantom Death Squad- controlled and commanded by their two Ministers : Ronald Gajraj then Home Affairs Minister now Ambassador back home in India, and Dr Leslie Ramsamy the last ppp Health Minister -‘Dr Death’ Placed in its proper context this Green’s award not only spits in the face of Guyanese History in general and on Walter Rodney’s grave in particular , but of course represents a currently updated gratuitous and insensitive slap in the face to all those decent Guyanese, and activists not only remnants of the defunct multi-racial WPA who challenged confronted denounced and defied this ppp elected Dictatorship now and against the Burnham version then. Is this another case ‘we turn now?’ Does Green’s Award presage the same racist triumphalism of the ppp victory in 1992 when the Rodney-ites who bore the brunt of Burnham’s and Green’s wrath - were excluded from Government by Cheddi Jagan? Of course not . Dr Rupert Roopnarine the newly appointed APNU Govt’s Minister of Education was Walter Rodney’s Deputy in the WPA. Roopnarine like anti-ppp scourge and scribe Freddie Kissoon would have nothing to do with the ppp’s Walter Rodney Commission of Inquiry. The problem however is that like the ppp after 1992 to 2015 who provided Burnham’s reign with retrospective cover and justification , this nonsensical award gives the ppp racists: Some small measure of undeserved and retrospective ‘I told you so’ ‘justification’ for their own historically unique decades long and unprecedented rampages of Crime Corruption and Carnage .And yes of Racialism too.

The Question is : For how long has this Mclean/US axis-as revealed in this cable, existed? Unconfirmed reports place Mclean in the environs of Washington DC a few weeks prior to the 13th June 1980 , informing friends that he had come to the US to ‘collect some electronic equipment.’ Did Burnham instruct Mclean his Chief of Staff to visit a large building in Langley,Virginia to receive a package of electronics from his (the Kabaka’s) CIA controllers? Furthermore, on the night of Friday 13th June 1980, shortly after the blowing up of Dr Walter Rodney by a remote control bomb secreted in what he believed was a ‘walkie-talkie’ given to his brother by Govt undercover agent Sgt. Gregory Smith, unconfirmed reports at the time also stated that Norman Mclean hurriedly left a social gathering in Georgetown saying that he had to go to see the Dictator because he had just heard that Walter Rodney is dead. Quite apart from the fact that the Burnham/ PNC controlled media were reporting all the next day that an ’un-identified body’ was found in a car after an explosion the night before next to the Georgetown jail–(a bit of misinformation which Journalist Julian Menezes exploded with his picture of the slain revolutionary on a slab in the Georgetown morgue and had to suffer for his pains.) Quite apart from the fact that leaflets with idiotic rhymes about a ‘hickory dickory death’ were strewn outside the Rodney family home later that night after the assassination Quite apart from the fact that BBC world-service radio suddenly became unavailable that fateful week-end Quite apart from the fact that the Army falsely claimed that ‘no Sgt. Gregory Smith existed’ in their records it would seem that if these reports of Mclean’s intelligence and movements prior to and so soon after Rodney’s killing are correct, he would be at the very least a material witness at any serious Investigation into the assassination. An investigation promised by the PPP in opposition and ‘inconveniently forgotten’ after returning to power in October 1992. 19 long years ago. In fact Mrs.Patricia Rodney had reason to take the ppp Govt's Prime Minister to task a few years ago and demanded an apology for his attempt to place the blame on the Rodney family for the pp Dictatorship's failure to honour its committment. Yet the remnant's of Rodney's WPA party continue to give this ppp man ,Hinds pride of place every 13th June at the annual Tributes to Walter Rodney. Another Question: For how long will those of us with good memories allow the PPP’s PIG (Party and Its Government) to continue dishonouring its public commitment to a full Enquiry and at the same time to reserve their ‘right’ to use this heinous act as a political stick to beat up the PNC Party (of Norman Mclean and Forbes Burnham) at Election time for political gain? At the time of Walter Rodney’s assassination the Chief of Intelligence , answerable directly to Burnham and Mclean, and the man who would be the most likely candidate as controller of the assassin Gregory Smith, (apart from Harry Hinds Rip) was Berbician Godwin Mcpherson. One can only wonder exactly what Mclean, Mcpherson and Burnham were telling the US Ambassador around June 1980 . Since the Carter Administration in the US revealed in 1976 that Burnham was a paid–up CIA Agent from 1946, it does not take too much of a leap of the imagination to view Mclean’s relationship with the Americans in the context of His Master’s own History.
