Mary Robinson has recently pleaded again with the US to permit borders to be reopened along with a cessation in bombing to permit food to be provided to the starving people in the interior. The US is deaf so far to these requests from the civilised world. Not in our name. Letters intended for publication should contain the writer's full name and preferably address as well. Names can be withheld upon request but only under special circumstances.
Letters are subject to editing and abridging.
