Collateral damage is a relatively recent term. During WWII when we firebombed and carpet bombed Germany and Japan, we didn't hinder ourselves with the fear of civilians dying. When we dropped both of the atomic bombs on Japan we ended the war and saved hundred of thousands of lives.
These Muslims are far worse than Hitler and do want to take over the world and as far as collateral damage is concerned if we want to win it than it just has to be. We have to look out for ourself and our allies.
