It seems that what goes in Pakistan doesn't necessarily apply in Syria, according to today's report of a US raid which is said to have killed Abu Ghadiyah, described as "a former lieutenant of Abu Musab al Zarqawi". According to a US intelligence spokesman, "Sunday's attack took place during the afternoon rest period, with a troop assault preferred over a missile strike to reduce civilian casualties".
Presumably the Pakistanis will infer that, in their own case, the risk of civilian casualties is not a factor...
