If you mean missing an ant with a gun, then maybe. But it doesn't look deliberate, and the explosion could have killed them anyway

They can target specific buildings in a group. They put that bomb exactly where they wanted to. He was targeted.

The one I responded to assumed he was missed on purpose, I don't argue he was not targeted, I argue it's practically impossible to miss him by so little on purpose and not make him die in the explosion at the same time

Valid. I also heard that they didn't really target him, they targeted his truck, but still, you target anything near people, and they are at great risk of shrapnel injuries if you don't get entirely blown up, and reportedly this journalist was injured by shrapnel. I don't know how he could have avoided it by anything but sheer luck.
