One could reasonably argue that the location of the strikes were regions which were not under the writ of the Pakistani govt.

Didn't the Pak army launch a major operation is recent years to retake control of FATA and NWFP from the Taliban / local armed tribals?

Civilians, lot of civilians were killed! Period!

More civilians (mostly muslims) are killed by the Taliban / ISIS etc. than by the United States.

True. However senseless killing by Taliban/ISIS doesn't justify killings of civilians happening by drone attacks...
