Sir, - I would like to commend Miriam Donohue for her brave and intelligent journalism concerning the plight of the people of Afghanistan.
In a world where, sadly, the suffering of one country is often deemed more newsworthy than the suffering of another, the reports restored a much needed sense of balance to my media-muddled mind. - Yours, etc.,
Roisin Loughrey, Emorville Avenue, Dublin 8.
