I wept as I read George Stevens Jr.'s description of the horror that invaded Anne Frank's young life ["Anne Frank's Unstilled Voice," op-ed, June 30]. I wanted so badly to have been able to protect her. She could have celebrated her 80th birthday last month, and I wanted to hold her hand and wish her a happy birthday.
On that same page of The Post, an opinion piece by Eve Ensler ["A Broken U.N. Promise in Congo"] revealed a fitting gift for Anne Frank: aggressive enforcement of U.N. Security Council Resolution 1820, and an end to the fear, horror and suffering that has invaded the lives of so many women and children of Congo.
Anne Frank and the women and children of Congo -- all of them are our sisters and daughters. We can protect our children. We can end the violence against our sisters. We can stop this inhumanity. But will we?
