Ahh here comes the coward who can't even press the reply button. misplaced ? Which part is misplaced ? The only reason you and your brigade calls it terrorism is the fact that you have a particular disdain for that country. If your country or any of the country you sympathize with does the same, that will not be a problem.
The thing is the very manual of airpower and its applications are derived from people's like Douhet and Mitchells thought, the very basic standard of which your country air force and every other are built upon. Simply because when airpower was introduced, due to technical limitaitions unless you're US, UK, France , Italy and Germany every other country is mostly watchers and onlookers, that means the science of airpower itself is based on these people thoughts and the country which they served and other simply adopted it. Yes its very much an attack on civilian and intentional, but that's war and that's how everybody conducts one. Irrelevant of what color the country is.
Russia doing it is simply them and their effort of following this manual, simple as that. If following that manual is terrorism, then every air force in existence are terroristic in nature,You don't like that ? that's your problem pal.
Modern Warfare itself actually blurred the line of combatants and non combatants. Treated both the same.
Not to say in Ancient times, Medieval times early modern period that civilians were not targeted as we can see in sieges that civilians were targeted to cause maximum carnage.
War is bloody and destructive and brings out the worst in people.
We always call the ancient or medieval times as barbaric because they use swords and spears while we have bombs that can kill hundreds to millions in one go.
