Careful here, civillian is not the same as innocent. For simple obvious cases of this: technically NSA, FBI and CIA people are civillians, as are government contractor employed security forces... It gets fuzzy pretty quickly.
There is also the question of who's version of innocent you use, for example if my moral/ethic system says X is a terrible offense and your system says X is just OK, which is most applicable to the classification of innocent? (for a simple concrete instance of this, look at the global variations of views on homosexuality, ranging from "it's nothing we should care about societally" to "we should care and embrace" to "it is a death penalty offense" -- not making any statements here on the debate, that is tangential to this). The situation needs to be looked at with an eye towards intent as well as just questions of innocence.
