The problem here is that, unintentionally or not, the armed forces leaded by the USA government had consistently attacked civilian targets. While the death of civilians is a collateral effect of most types of warfare, the targetting of civilians and nonmilitary facilities is only logical (on a warring point of view, obviously) under a terrorist stance. One do It to cause panic and/or dissatisfaction on the people under whom one's enemy relies politically, in order to weak your enemy.
So, there are reports of attacks to hospitals, residential areas, nonmilitary infrastructure, etc. since Clinton's government military action (as there happened heavily in Vietnam), while little to nothing has been done to overturn this.
So, from a military logic, either the USA is willingly using of terrorism or there is a complete lack of respect to military action conventions (and of good administration, once resources are being spent on It).
Believing that the US Armed Forces are simply doing their job properly and attacking directly the enemy the whole time is nothing but wishful thinking. It ignores almost 20 years of good media job.
