I don't believe the US would do that. I have known many members of the US 
military, and usually they are Christian and quite moral. The world has 
seen storm troopers and people laughing as they kill civilians, but that 
in general, has never been the US military. The US has tried various 
military members for unwarranted killings. 

Of course, accidents happen. When you drop a heavy load from 30,000 feet, 
it doesn't always land on a dime. In WWII, you were lucky if it hit the 
right city. 

On the other hand, the Taliban/BinLaden crew DELIBERATELY attacked 
civilians.
