I doubt you will find many Americans who support dropping FAEs on civvies.  |
Their ROE was to respond in the same manner as the nature of the attack. So, artillery was met with artillery.
Seems stupid, but it makes sense when you consider that the policy is about preventing escalation rather than deterring/forcibly stopping attacks. And those ROE look like they're done for now.

Analysis of reconnaissance aircraft photographs revealed that the North deployed a 122-mm MLRS battalion of its Fourth Army Corps at Kaemori, South Hwanghae Province on the day of the attack. One battalion has 18 MLRS vehicles.
