In David Pryce-Jones's words ("The New Cold War," Nov. 5), "Communism turned out to be the Russian national interest in disguise." One wishes this were so. However, the collapse of the Soviet regime left Communists in power in China, North Korea, Vietnam, and Cuba. True, the West did win the Cold War, but our victory was incomplete.

I was disappointed to see the following from David Pryce-Jones: ". . . so far as is known, Britain is the only NATO country yet to provide any material help" to the U.S. in its response to September 11.
Canada, a NATO member, has contributed six naval vessels and 2,000 naval and air-force personnel. Given the size of Canada's armed forces, this is a major contribution. Additionally, a battalion of Canadian soldiers, consisting of some 1,000, is preparing to go to Afghanistan. All in all, not a bad response from this small NATO player!
