The Israelis used the same tactic with their Vulcans back in lebanon. They took some flak (pardon the pun) for it in the UN but America used her veto to stop any action (not that the israelis listen to the UN anyway).
I think it's technicly ilegal under some treaty but that kind of thing means nothing in war, you use what you have to do the job.
