Well, just like everyone else here I have no solid source for that info. However I imagine if you include a reasonable wide definition of terrorist and terrorist supporters that more of them have been killed by our bombs then innocent civilians have been killed.

The Taliban who have every reason to exaggerate the death toll among innocent civilians have not to my knowledge mentioned one incident in which more then a handful of civilians have been killed. Of course even killing a handful of innocent people is a horrible thing, but if we will use no force that might kill any innocents then we can not defend ourselves at all.
