Out of that grew an invitation to Allison to write about how the situation personally affected her as a parent. The resulting essay, published in mid-October at tomdispatch.com, brought a flood of e-mail, selections from which Engelhardt also published at the site. "One thing struck me," Engelhardt said in introducing the letters. "Amid all the pundits opining and journalists reporting on the state of the nation, we almost never hear the voices of Americans who, like Teri Allison, have to deal with the fallout from the mess this Administration has created." Engelhardt said he was also struck by the offers of help directed to Allison and some of the people she wrote about. In their generosity of spirit, he wrote, the responses "offer a kind of hope and renewal all their own." With the permission of all those involved, and with thanks to tomdispatch.com, a project of The Nation Institute, we offer Allison's letter and a sampling of the responses. - The Nation Editors read more... <http://www.iraq-news-net.de/?/news/news/2422/> Bush Regime Maintains Power Through Electoral Fraud /Antiimperialism worldwide, *STEVEN ARGUE*, 2004-11-08/ Bush Regime Maintains Power Through Electoral Fraud By STEVEN ARGUE Electric voting machines in a precinct in Columbus Ohio gave George W.

Before the election, we called upon our American readers to vote for a Third Candidate. Some readers agreed and voted - for Nader or Greens or whomever their consciences were happy with. Today they have nothing to regret. Others objected, often vehemently, and proclaimed the main advantage of Kerry, namely: he is not George W Bush. Now those of you who did so are upset, and along with you many Europeans; they still regret the defeat of John Kerry. read more... <http://www.iraq-news-net.de/?/news/antiimperialism-worldwide/2418/> Black Smoke Billows Over Fallujah As 20,000 US Troops Poised To Strike - 3 Articles /*various / via Mail from Rick Rozoff*, 2004-11-08/ Black Smoke Billows Over Fallujah As 20,000 US Troops Poised To Strike 1) Black Smoke Billows Over Fallujah As 20,000 US Troops Besiege City, Bombardment Continues 2) Medics: Twelve Iraqis Killed By US Bombings 3) Mosques: 35 US Troops Captured In Fallujah read more... <http://www.iraq-news-net.de/?/news/news/2417/> Hail Bush! /*"wprm_britain"*, 2004-11-08/ Hail Bush! Back in power, Bush now claims popular legitimacy and support for all the madness his crew unleashes next. Bush and his gang have become the spearhead and symbol for a crusade to impose tighter US domination over the whole world. This is a sweeping operation of war, threats and covert operations that is the literally remaking the international order by force. Meanwhile, within the US long standing legal rights of trail, privacy, and protection from profiling and surveillance are being torn away, and replaced by the raw logic of a growing police state. read more... <http://www.iraq-news-net.de/?/news/news/2416/> US Air Raids and Artillery Bombardment Continue on Beleaguered Falljua Ahead of the Assault /*Michael Georgy, NEAR FALLUJA / Reuters*, 2004-11-08/ Al-Jazeera US Air Raids and Artillery Bombardment Continue on Beleaguered Falljua Ahead of the Assault Al-Jazeerah Edited Report, Mon Nov 8, 2004 06:31 AM ET By Michael Georgy NEAR FALLUJA, Iraq (Reuters) - U.S. planes and artillery fiercely bombarded the Iraqi beleaguered city of Falluja and troops probed alleged resistance defenses on Monday in a prelude to a full-scale ground offensive on Iraq that dared not to surrender to the US-UK occupation. read more... <http://www.iraq-news-net.de/?/news/news/2415/> 50,000 Muscovites rally for October Revolution anniversary /Antiimperialism worldwide, *Xinhua Net*, 2004-11-08/ About 50,000 Muscovites, mostly young people and pensioners, gathered Sunday in the center of the capital city to mark the 87th anniversary of the October Revolution in 1917 leading to the founding of the former Soviet Union. read more... <http://www.iraq-news-net.de/?/news/antiimperialism-worldwide/2414/> Top U.S. Marine in Iraq Calls for Massacre in Fallujah /[EMAIL PROTECTED], 2004-11-08/ Top U.S. Marine in Iraq Calls for Massacre in Fallujah From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Nov. 7, 2004 The U.S. has surrounded the sealed off City of Fallujah and is preparing to launch the complete destruction of the city.
