Sir: The war on terror should now be ended as it has taken a heavy toll of human lives. The loss is incalculable and heart-wrenching. The violence has made people’s lives miserable and with each passing day, the situation worsens. The US strategy of eliminating terrorists with drone attacks is causing more harm than good. It is time both the United States of America and Pakistan made human-friendly policies, initiated peacekeeping, counselling and awareness programmes to deal with the problem. SANA SHAUKAT Rawalpindi
