Here's another way of looking at it.
If the kill radius of a drone explosion is known then you could draw a circle around the epicentre of the intended strike point.
Everyone inside that circle has therefore been 'targeted' - even if they happen to be women and children.
Please.
Pickup a Dictionary.
And understand the definition of the words you are using.
As an FYI - the lethal radius of a Hellfire is 20 meters (everyone inside that radius has a 50% chance of death - so, even using your mangled interpretation of words - it is still not targeted)

for comparison - a 500 pound Mk 82 Bomb has a lethal radius of 100 meters.

Careful, you could take out the Chinese embassy in the wrong country with one of those things... which was originally written off as nought more than collateral damage... until the truth found its way out.

We all know that in a war women and children and other innocent civilians get killed. Always. Always - it's a known outcome of war.
Women and children are dying and we are arguing semantics of whether they are targeted or not ...
Come on people .. let's have some reality here ...
Yes - have a look t the incidents of PTSD and suicide, homelessness and alcoholism of US troops returning home .. they don't handle it well.

Thread hijack: so KatMan, when is the last time you actually Rode a Motorcycle and commented on That Ride? I mean we all get that the US is the most Evil Empire ever to have Bestrode - as a Murderous Colossus - the Face of the GAIA The Planet, crushing innocent Women and Children under its Uncaring Sadistic Heels... because we hear it from you all over the place. ISIS is by comparison a Necessary Kindergarten Counterpoint. But every now and then you do take time off from being a Social Justice Warrior to Enjoy an actual Ride, yes? (Although maybe you can't, because the 'Muricans manufacture so many Custom Motorcycle Parts it is probably very difficult to find a bike or accessories Untainted by the Evil Empire. But I digress).
I'm guessing, you don't go to Sturgis just because you don't want to be an Accomplice. But if you do, I'll buy you a beer there first week in August. But: Trigger Warning - it will be a US-brewed beer...
