Dear Editor:

Why is it that, on any day of the week, our country can go into another country and get a full-fledged war going before lunch?

But when a fire breaks out in our country, it can’t be stopped, even when citizens have burned alive.

Where is the United Nations and the laws of the Geneva Convention?

We should all be caring for the horror in Japan and the radioactive damage at a global level.

Save our own people.
