...putatively about not forgetting Hiroshima and Nagasaki, but actually a scaremongering piece about Iran, Russia, and North Korea (“Too Easily Forgotten,” Aug. 12), Adam M. Guren neglects even once to mention Israel’s clandestine but widely known nuclear arsenal. When was the last time Israel allowed the International Atomic Energy Agency to inspect its nukes? Why hasn’t Israel signed the nuclear non-proliferation treaty? Is the writer simply ignorant, or is he knowingly dissembling Israel’s significant involvement with illicit weapons of mass destruction? Is Israel exempt...
...most meager of belongings, the emotional pain of the adults contrasted with the excitement of children like Dawonne Matthews, 11, who was taking his first 'copter ride, joyfully sporting the helmet that crew chief Cpl. Jessica Buckley, 25, had given him to wear. "We've never felt so forgotten in our lives," said Dawonne's mother, Trinise Henry, who said the family's food and bottled water had begun running out the day before. "Thank God this helicopter showed up, because I really thought no one was ever coming to get us." She pointed to her disabled neighbors...

That important fact is now virtually forgotten. Meanspirited Novak, a shill for the political right, publicly outed Wilson's wife Plame. That was the Administration's first parry to deflect public attention. And with the continuing diversion of public attention from the central issue of deception, the Administration is having things just the way it wants. Gregory J. Ryan Woodland Hills, California...
...Fairweather's 1952 journey proved to be the defining moment in his career, the stepping-off point for his later great abstractions, but the raft was quickly forgotten. Now, in a feat befitting the noble nuttiness of its originator, a fellow Antipodean has recreated it as a piece of "readymade" sculpture. New Zealand-born, German-based Michael Stevenson, 40, has built a career from the quirks of art history, teasing them out as art-museum "exhibits." Artist or anthropologist? For the 2003 Venice Biennale, he reassembled New Zealand's failed four-wheel-drive vehicle, the Trekka, as a humorous gesture...
