Description

In this letter to the "Baltimore Sun," Anfinsen responds to the accidental downing of an Iranian passenger plane by the U.S. Navy in the Persian Gulf. Anfinsen used the incident as a platform to encourage the reduction of U.S. dependence on fossil fuels and to call for an end to the proliferation of nuclear weapons and the Strategic Defense Initiative.
