Dear Friends,

Many of you will recall another infamous September 11.

It is the anniversary of U.S.-sponsored terror against the people of 
a Latin American country in 1973.

Ocean Press has just published a rich book reclaiming September 11 
for Chileans and all victims of terror for which Washington is 
responsible.

CHILE: THE OTHER SEPTEMBER 11
An anthology of reflections and commentaries on the 1973 coup in Chile

Edited by Pilar Aguilera and Ricardo Fredes

Contributors include
    *  Ariel Dorfman
    *  Pablo Neruda
    *  Victor Jara
    *  Salvador Allende
    *  Fidel Castro
    *  Beatriz Allende
    *  Joan Jara

The terror, trauma and tragedy of General Pinochet's U.S.-backed coup 
against the democratically elected government of Salvador Allende 
lasted 17 years, and Pinochet and his key U.S. accomplices still walk 
free. This book recounts the historical significance of the "other" 
September 11 for all those who oppose U.S. interventionism and 
advocate a more just world.

It is available from Cuba Books a non-profit volunteer project based 
in Vancouver. Find out more at at http://www.cubabooks.ca

Against all terrorism.
