Probably that any further strikes will be retaliated.
The most we can do is to block supplies.

At least it is something, but its impact is still unclear at this stage.

Actually, there have been very few of these APCs in Pakistan's entire 60+ history and so dismissing this APC as just a media-show is not fair.
Politicians in Pakistan are at each others' throats constantly. But for them to come together like they did today gives the arm forces the people's backing.
And so, IF there are hostilities then all these political leaders will mobilize their tens of millions of constituents.
Don't underestimate the significance of this APC. Just like the PM Junejo's APC in the late 80s which helped form a consensus about the need to give the Soviets a face-saving way out of Afghanistan, this one has far reaching consequences.

Resolution
Of the conference of the leaders of all the political parties
Islamabad, September 29, 2011
On the invitation of Prime Minister Syed Yusuf Raza Gilani, the leaders of Pakistan’s political parties met in Islamabad on September 29, 2011 to consider issues relating to national security
1. The conference was briefed by Foreign Minister Ms. Hina Rabbani Khar and Director General ISI, Lt. Gen Ahmed Shuja Pasha on the security environment of the country and the regional situation.
2. After in-depth deliberations, leaders of all political parties unanimously resolved, as follows.
i. As a peace-loving country, Pakistan desires to establish and maintain friendly and cordial relations with all countries of the world on the basis of sovereign equality, mutual interest and respect.
ii. All Parties Conference recognized that there has to be a new direction and policy with a focus on peace and reconciliation. “Give peace a chance” must be the guiding central principle henceforth.
iii. Pakistan must initiate dialogue with a view to negotiate peace with our own people in the tribal areas and a proper mechanism for this be put in place.
iv. We need to further enhance our brotherly bilateral relations with Afghanistan at three levels on priority basis: government to government, institution to institution and people to people.
v. The APC recognized the sacrifices of the people and the Security Forces of Pakistan, especially the people of Khyber Pukhtunkhwa and tribal areas. The international community needs to recognize these tremendous sacrifices as well as the colossal magnitude of destruction in Pakistan.
vi. Pakistan can enhance its self-reliance comprehensively. Trade, not aid, should clearly be the way forward. We should also focus on internal economic and tax reforms as well as resource mobilization and the curbing of corruption.
vii. Defence of Pakistan’s sovereignty and its territorial integrity is a sacred duty which shall never be compromised.
viii. National interests are supreme and shall guide Pakistan’s policy and response to all challenges at all times.

x. All earlier unanimous resolutions of the Parliament, the recommendation of the Joint Parliamentary Committee on National Security must be implemented.
xi. APC rejected the recent assertions and baseless allegations made against Pakistan. Such assertions are without substance and derogatory to a partnership approach.
xii. The Pakistani nation affirms its full solidarity and support for the armed forces of Pakistan in defeating any threat to national security.
xiii. A Parliamentary Committee be formed to oversee the implementation of earlier resolutions as well as this Resolution and progress on the same be made public on monthly basis.

Sure as long as Americans are willing to do it too, but if they bomb you, you need to bomb them back.

If you are militarily and politically comparable to the US, then yes, you could do that justifiably.
But if not, you need to look at why the US is bombing and realign your policies to avoid it.
The APC end result was bound to be only sound and fury, signifying nothing, and very predictably so. Why be disappointed by reality?
