Letter: Fear of nuclear war should bring us together

Where were you when they bombed Hiroshima and Nagasaki? Where were you when they attacked Pearl Harbor? Where were you when the attack of 9/11 happened? Do you recall the threat from Russia's nuclear arsenal? The threat of a nuclear attack is scary.

I visited the Pearl Harbor memorial, which was an emotional experience. Here in Las Vegas, painted on a wall on Buffalo Drive near Charleston Boulevard, is a painting for those who lost their lives on 9/11 to rest in peace.

War is a very sad time for all. I do not understand war fully. In a time where we are lost in thought, we must recall the past and ask God for enlightenment. The thought of Iran as a nuclear threat is scary.

Is there anything we can agree upon? I anticipate the next step from the great minds of our leaders.
