OUR READER FREDERICK LAWSON: MIKHAIL GORBACHEV HAS MUCH TO SAY ABOUT CURRENT EVENTS
I deeply enjoy reading Pravda daily. It is a wonderful source for a wide variety of news and opinions. The American press is finally starting to wake up and ask some good questions, but for the past weeks, I've been getting better information from Pravda than from my own country. More details...

OUR READER JOHN J DONNA: THE PEOPLE MUST ESTABLISH PLANETARY GOVERNMENT
Planetary unification is inevitable. Economic forces unleashed by the emergence of the global economy and the world wide web's revolutionary impact on every aspect of human society will bring about de facto unification within the lifetime of the first internet generation. The central question of our time is not whether planetary unification will take place, but in what manner. More details...

ALCMAEON JONES: THANK GOD, OR LENIN OR WHOEVER!..
I stumbled onto this site, but as an American, I am glad to finally see some other point of view from the media. About 2 weeks after the September 11 terrorist attack in the U.S., I realized that all the major U.S. networks (CNN, NBC, ABC, CBS, Fox) were giving exactly the same stories presented in exactly the same manner.

OUR READER STEVE CARPENTER: WE WERE ATTACKED ON SEPT. 11 WITH A SAVAGERY NOT SEEN SINCE THE NAZIS
I write for the second time in four months from the Los Angeles area. To be frank, we here are waiting here in L.A. for the other shoe to drop, for a suitcase nuke or poisoned water or for the massive earthquake we've been waiting for for years. More details...

LUC SCHUERMAN: I DISCOVERED YOUR INTERNET SITE IN ENGLISH BY ACCIDENT
The habit here is to turn to CNN or the BBC for news (or non-news) so I must confess that it is only today and by accident that I discovered your internet site in English. And I would like to express my appreciation for your mentioning (and providing links to) several kinds of news sources, in addition to articles by Russian authors. More details...

OUR READER NELSON CANDELARIA: OPEN LETTER TO PRESIDENT PUTIN
Russia was a democracy; is it a plutocracy today? Why this question? Socialists live in real democracy, while the Western Hemisphere is otherwise plutocratic. Look up these words in the Merriam-Webster Dictionary on the web: - “Plutocracy: 1. Government by the wealthy. 2. A controlling class of the wealthy. More details...

OUR READER HENRY W. FREITAG: TERRORISM LETTER TO THE UN SECRETARY-GENERAL KOFI ANNAN, TO THE LEADERS OF ALL THE NATIONS OF THE WORLD AND TO ALL RELIGIOUS LEADERS
There are not enough bombs, rockets and bullets in the world to stop terrorism. You kill one and you created two! There is a better way! More details...

OUR READER PAUL BASSAW: CLUSTER BOMBING IN AFGHANISTAN
The U.S. has now shown that it has no moral right to classify anyone as a terrorist, including those responsible for the WTC attack. It is as much a terrorist as Al-Quaeda since in its blind rage for the WTC attack, it is prepared to kill innocent civilians using cluster bombs in Afghanistan despite the world-wide ban on the use of this type of weapons.

OUR READER DAVE FULLER: I KNOW THAT US AND RUSSIA HAVE LIKE THOUGHTS AND DESIRES
Most of my life, first as the son of an American soldier and later as one myself, I had to think about what would happen if our two countries became embroiled in armed conflict. Thankfully, these past years have been blissfully free of that unwanted burden. Today, I know that our people can be friends. I also know that we have like thoughts and desires. I also know that the biggest difference between us is simply that of language. More details...

OUR READER DREW SEYBEL: ANTI-AMERICANS FROM WITHIN OUR COUNTRY HAVE FOUND PRAVDA.RU A FRIENDLY STAGE
I am deeply saddened when I read the "Letters to the Editor" section of the otherwise objective reporting in PRAVDA.Ru. Many of the letters you post from [so called Americans] do not reflect the attitudes of the majority of our citizens. President Bush enjoys a higher satisfaction rating than any previous President, over 90% approval.The support America is receiving from her allies is overwhelming, and growing each day.

OUR READER SYD HARRIS : DEMOCRACY IS MORE THAN SIMPLY A NOUN
Pravda is a most welcome addition to the new world of inter-net news. As an American fed on a well managed diet of selective news, there is much in this shrinking world which affects our lives and our destinies. Our supposedly democratic system of society with its cherished principles of freedom and individual rights has become a carnival of sunshine, flag-waving patriots, caught up in a sense of righteous rebellion against a world of which they little about and understand even less.

JIMMY TIDWELL: YOU CAN'T JUST DO NOTHING AND WAIT...
I would like people who don't agree with what the US is doing to make suggestions as to what they would do. You can't just do nothing and wait untill al-Qaida is ready to murder thousands of good hard working people again. People from all walks of life and all nations. People who was doing no injustice to the murderers. Someone had to get started on terrorist before they have time to build weapons of mass destruction and murder all civalized people.

GEORGE POLLNOW: THE WORLD HAS BECOME TOO SMALL TO NOT VIEW THE REST OF HUMANITY AS MY BROTHER
In my opinion, Pravda has provided a valuable service to the American public. I have seen the discrepancies between the news that I receive on television compared to your publication. All I can say is thank you. More details...

PERHAPS YOU WONDERING ABOUT OUR NEW FORUM?
Greetings!As you may know, we were having a great deal of problems with the old forum. We decided to use a new version until we are able to work out all the bugs with the old forum. In other words, this new form will be replaced in the near future with the old forum, as it seems that it was liked much more than the new forum. We appreciate the criticism regarding the new forum and hope that you will continue to participate! In addition, we welcome any helpful ideas regarding the forum.

ANOUNIMOUS READER: CONDITION OF AMERICA -- A CITIZEN'S QUESTIONS FOR THOUGHT
I have been reading non-American newspapers, particularly letters to the editor, in the past few days in an effort to see what people from other countries think about the latest catastrophe that has occurred on American soil, which has unfortunately had such a devastating effect the world over. I have not been particularly surprised by any of them. More details...

JOHN J. DONNA: WE, THE PEOPLE OF EARTH, CAN AWAKEN AND TAKE CONTROL OF OUR DESTINY
It is only in changing ourselves that our world will change. No external change in governmental or economic systems, even planetary unification, no external achievement, even victory in World War III, will bring peace, order, and security to Earth unless the external visible change is matched by the hidden inner transformation brought about as our people seek and find peace within.

OUR READER STEVEN M. ROBINSON: AN OPEN LETTER TO PRESIDENT PUTIN
Dear President Putin, This coming weekend you will be meeting in Shanghai with George W. Bush. Mr. Bush will try to convince you that the American people support his proposal to violate the ABM treaty and install a missile defense shield over North America. Please know that a huge number of Americans do NOT support this position, and wish to honor the treaty. More details...

The article by Irina Malenko was titled CONFLICTING DATA ABOUT 200 KILLED IN NIGERIA OVER ANTI-U.S. PROTESTS. But no conflicting data was presented. The artcicle states that the Dutch media, no reference given, has reported that 200 Muslims have been killed in Kano at the hands of the Nigerian police as a result of a clash between Muslims and Christians at a large anti-American demonstration.

JOE WERTZ: I AM SICK OF MY GENERATION'S IGNORANCE
As a 15 year old American student, I am sick of my generation's ignorance and "refusal-to-think" attitude, especially concerning the recent attacks and aftermath. This pop culture state-of-mind has infused in America's young generation a lackadaisical approach toward producing one's own beliefs and opinions. More details...

PAUL MACLELLAN: YOU HAVE ONE OF THE BEST PAPERS
You have one of the best papers I have ever read. I like very much the no nonsense approach to your articles and the fact that you tell it like it is. So many papers are or news related sites carry garbage. Thanks for your straight forward approach. Paul MacLellan Toronto, Canada
