I didn't watch the whole thing as I'm trying to keep track of my dog that's chasing a pack of coyote right now but
If I recall correctly, that first building was a military headquarters building. We hit everything important that first night. We did bomb a civilian telecom center so they couldn't use it for obvious military reasons. A LOT of the damage was from their own anti-aircraft fire. By the time they started shooting, we were already on our way home. We were bombing from miles away but they didn't know that.
Not so much the first couple days of the first desert storm war but later, they were launching anti-aircraft missiles without even targeting them so they were just landing wherever. They had learned when they turned on the targeting radar, we would blow them up in seconds so they just didn't turn them on. However, they'd get shot by their own superiors if they weren't fighting so they just launched them so it looked like they were trying.
We did make a few mistakes in Intel, crew error etc but we tried to only hit real military targets. Bombs and fuel are expensive so we don't like wasting them on nonmilitary stuff that doesn't help the outcome.
