Things don't work that way. There was no reasonable chance that an AP photographer could have prevented these murders, but perhaps he got the pictures of the assailants that can be used to apprehend them.

The military must have changed. I was unaware that Marines would set up a fire mission in response to an AP photog on assignment.

It’s quite easy to get up in arms over this kind of stuff. It is an outrage. But getting all hysterical over it is a bit unbecoming. Anything the camera guy would have done to try to stop would have ensured only that there would be a third body (his) next to the 2 women.

He probably would have been killed... maybe the film will help the world understand the horror...

What a great idea! All he needed to do was pull out his cell phone, dial 1-800-SEMPER-FI and call in an air strike. The Marines would've responded in seconds and those women would be alive today.

Yeah, it couldn't have been any more difficult than ordering a pizza from Dominos, could it?
