And there comes a point when quibbles like yours DO NOT MATTER! And we are there.

Do you think the allies in WWII refused to drop bombs on French soil because some French citizens, who very definitely were not the enemy, might be killed?

The fact is the the Taliban and bin Laden are in control of that portion of Afghanistan under attack. We are going to attack them, first from the air and later, if needed, from the ground. If innocents get in the way and are killed, that is unfortunate, but the war will go on. Whether you like it or not. Get used to it.
