The military has the Rules of engagement. Basically we are not allowed to bomb religious , schools, and hospital's unless they are being used as strongholds. The same goes for civilians. Unless they are posing a threat we are not to harm them. But that does not stop people from following this. These Rules of Engagement are used by the US Military as far as I know.
