An official told that a strike now could “push U.S.-Pakistan relations past the point of no return.”

U.S. commanders won’t hesitate, however, to take a shot if an enticing high-value target presents itself, an official said.

The last strike took place Nov. 17, LWJ reports.

The campaign, however, angered many Pakistanis and other Muslims around the world before its shaky relationship with the U.S. went from bad to worse this year.

The Raymond Davis affair and the US raid that killed Osama bin Laden in Abbottabad, Pakistan earlier this year further inflamed the Pakistanis.

Last month 24 Pakistani solders died after when NATO helicopters accidentally struck their position.

A U.S. led team just inside Afghanistan called in the strike after taking fire from across the border.

In response, Pakistan threw the CIA out of an air base inside the country and shut off two border crossings used to resupply U.S. troops.
