Sir: Finally, the army has taken a stand and has shown the nation that it has had enough. Soon after deadly militant attacks against our men in uniform in Bannu and Rawalpindi, the army responded by raiding militant hideouts in Waziristan, reportedly killing Taliban fighters. This is the kind of response we need to see more of. Enough with all the mellow talk on how to negotiate with the murderers of Pakistanis; we must beat the terrorists from a position of strength and, thankfully, the army seems to be doing that. As usual, our cowardly politicians have let us down in this realm also. ASIF GHANI Lahore
