Every nation that lost citizens on the Malaysia Airlines jet should get together and send a joint military force to recover the remains of their citizens and secure the crash site before it is too late. This would also send a strong message to Vladimir Putin.

This letter was published in the July 22 edition.While the downing of Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 is a terrible tragedy, we should remember that in 1988 the United States shot down Iran Air Flight 655 shortly after it took off. We considered that as an unintended tragedy. Even with the best equipment and best-trained personnel in the world, it happened to us. Instead of blaming Russia for everything, we should actually try to end this senseless conflict.
