We are writing to express our deep sorrow at the recent terrorist acts perpetrated against US workers and their families. The Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Ireland, on behalf of the entire membership of the party, expresses condolences to the families of the deceased and offers sympathy to the injured and their families.
We condemn these attacks as they are counterproductive in the development of the needed solutions for those political and social problems facing us all. At the same time such attacks are a result of the politics of the United States Government which has in the past supported terrorist activity in many parts of the world, such as in the Near East or in the Balkan region.
The Communist Party of India expresses its shock and horror at the coordinated and massive terrorist attack on sensitive civilian and official sites in the U.S., which has led to the death of several thousand lives, caused vast destruction, and spread panic and fear among people, not only in the U.S.A., but elsewhere in the world.

Needless to say, the shock of Tuesday's terrible events hasn't worn off. Everyone is struggling with how to take it in personally, as well as respond politically.
In that horrific instant on September 11th, the potential of a wider war spread over our country and the world's horizon.

No issue at this moment and for the foreseeable future looms larger.
ACTION ALERT for Peace and Economic Justice #1 September 30, 2001
