Of course it’s an option, when the alternative is a potential nuclear holocaust. I’m not denying that Pakistan makes for a miserable neighbor, just that limited engagements with limited casualties are preferable to risking nuclear war.

The target area was away from civilian population, in a remote area where terrorist outposts had been identified. The flight time was under 30mins.
