Its not hard math , you know how far damage will go , you know there are innocent people nearby , you know they will die. I would call that "targetting"

They dont intentionally target "only" civilians , but they obviously target places that they "know" civilians may/will die.. thats a fact..

The difference is americans target civilians to protect us from a greater harm , whereas terrorists target civilians as propoganda to scare them.
i guess we just have a different definition of the word targeting. i guess id consider them more as collateral damage then actual targets because the bombings would take place if they were there or not.
