Are you suggesting that the US has intentionally targeted civilians?  In 
the same manner that the terrorists park car bombs in the middle of 
crowded streets?  While I do not disagree that civilians have died as a 
result of cluster bombs and the like, the issue is intent.  Terrorists 
operate with the intent of killing civilians.  American policy, while it 
is not perfect, does not.
