"The Other 9/11"--Chile, l973, remember here in Sonoma County

[Shepherd]

As we mourn the loss of lives from 9/11 in the U.S., following is a report published today from a much worse 9/11--Chile, l973, during the time that I lived there. The following article includes quotations from myself and others. This year the Chilean courts finally accused the U.S. of collaborating with the fascist generals, by giving them the address of U.S. citizen Frank Teruggi, my friend. The role of the embassy should be to protect, not lead to the torture and execution of an innocent young man.

If I was given the choice of being able to "undo" only one of these two tragedies (9/11 Chile or 9/11 US) I would choose Chile.

It was far, far worse a tragedy than what happened in New York. Over 30,000 people were illegally detained, tortured, incarcerated, and then systematically murdered in a horrific act of genocide. Only 2,000 Americans died in the towers. The US government was directly involved in the coup that overthrew democratically elected Salvador Allende, which unleashed that genocide.
