Is it acceptable to bomb civilians?
The answer is - as with most things in warfare - "It Depends." Specifically targeting civilians for aerial bombing is now considered illegal. During WW2, however, both sides considered it a legitimate action, as a valid method to attack enemy public morale and to hurt enemy war production. In modern times, it is legal to bomb civilians, if they are next to military targets, and the attacker is not intentionally targeting the civilians. In general, reasonable (in military terms) mistakes which result in bombing civilians is also legal. Regardless of the "legality" of aerial bombings, there is a significant negative Propaganda effect that striking civilians has.
