How was this not targeted? I was the most targeted military operation we know of. Give me any example of anything in warfare that is close to that.

This was about as targeted as anti-personnel landmines, but spread out in civilian areas and detonated without any knowledge of their surroundings at the time.

Because mines are untargeted and designed to maim without discrimination as to who they might hurt there is a long running effort to prohibit their use.
