I believe the good guys (military)


as I posted earlier today after pretty chicken made his inch by inch turret comment..:

So let me get this straight according to pretty boy:

1) the journalists were filming the tanks.
2) the tank inched it's turret around inch by inch (not swung it around rapidly)
3) the tank had to raise its cannon towards the journalists(14 th floor).
4) the journalists stayed there with a cannon pointing at them that they had been filming aim at them.
5) Shots and sounds should be on the cameras tape or broadcast (if still in one piece).
6) the journalists failed common sense and became Darwin Award candidates.

Is that about it?

Did any of those journalists look like Peter Arnett by chance?
................

If anyone has read any sniper books..there was one famous shootout between two snipers at long distance, and the good guy (US) got the bad guy a split second before the bad guy fired because he saw the glint off the other rifle/scope and shot the guy right in the head through the scope, which indicated the other guy was aimed in on him..a split second mattered...I think that was One Shot one Kill with Carlos Hathcok..could be mistaken as its been awhile since I read that and letters from home and another sniper book..all were intriguing.
