What will you fire in tight streets with no population and heavy anti tank fire coming from them? Do you want to know what the Pakistan army does if it receives sniper fire in N or S Waziristan? Or for that matter the US in Fallujah or the UK in Helmand? Dont fall into these Arab story telling of that killing innocent civilians is somehow what a dictator wants in 2015. Yes, I agree that some of Assads henchmen might be corrupt and vile and should be taken to book for some crimes they have committed. But saying that Assad says to his airforce to go find innocent civilians to murder so that the world helps him keep his presidency is just ludicrous. It does not work with so much media. Majority of the population is with him. The cities under his control are fighting back with everyday life even with constant aimed mortar fire at civilian zones. And by the way I am against the use of any unguided fire be it barrel bombs against Syrian targets or Hammas rockets against civilians.
Pakistan army evacuates civilians .... waits months for them to evacuate...fascilitates and hosts them in camps and no....they still dont use tanks in towns....
Civilian casualities in pakistani ops are low may be in hundreds...far lower than taliban achievement of 40000 pak civilians killed...
Pakistani refugees are not flooding europe with their wives and childern
They are usually happy and well settled in their homes
If u just want to rant thats fine..thats what internet is for
If u want an intellihlgent assesment...
Pakistan was faced with an inhuman insurgency....
Pakistani tactics are very different and infantry actually does majority of work... only few tanks have been used only for supportive fire...
Pakistani tanks are accurate...
They donot use them in front line but as infantry support....
None of towns pakistan cleared looks like a ruin...infratstructure was intact...and was actively rebuild and improved.....
Nearly all have been repopulated and most are open for buissness and even westerner tourists....
Compare this now to what asad's army has done....
Asad killed thousands while supressing political unrest in cities....
They donot evecuate cities .. they have made zero effort from day one to protect civilians....
It was praceful demonstrations which changed into a full fledged war
Only a blind man can compare
