At the very least you have to kill as many of them as they kill of you to make them less enthusiastic or despair of winning. Otherwise you are not going to break them and you are wasting your time.

They need to think "I pissed them off, crap, run hide."

They need to know they have no safe ground in FATA and that Pakistan cannot protect them.

They need to know fear. They need to know sorrow. They need to know that they are jackasses trying to run everyone's life and that they will suffer if they continue.
