N. Korea missile threat
Re “U.N. is split on response to N. Korea,” April 6
Once again, the United Nations Security Council fails to come to a hasty agreement when countries need it most.
When a threat such as North Korea's missile launch becomes evident, shouldn't we put aside our differences and try to craft a response that might quickly put a stop to the danger?
It is fortunate that this rocket failed to send a satellite to orbit. But the next time an issue similar to this threatens our peace, how are we supposed to quickly solve the problem if no country is willing to sacrifice a little to benefit everyone?

Re “North Korea launches rocket,” April 5
So the U.S. is shocked to find that a country has developed nuclear weapons as well as the ability to launch payloads into space and hit far-flung targets, all at the whim of a dangerously fanatical leader!
Who would want to perpetrate such a threat to peace, nay, to life itself? God forbid the day will come when someone will drop one of these heinous weapons, or perhaps two, on major cities, killing untold numbers of innocent people and leaving a poisonous radioactive legacy for generations to come.
Wait a minute! The U.S. already did all those things. Never mind.

Investigate the 'war on terror'
Re “Judging the war on terror,” editorial, April 4
Questioning the Obama administration and its hesitancy regarding investigations about possible violations of our Constitution and the Geneva Convention is past due.
