Hoplite, maybe your delicate fingers can touch an M-16 trigger set on automatic and fire a single round. That will be the day. The weapon in question was desinged for 10-round bursts minimum, 25 maximum.
Single bullet is an option, but that's not what your "sniper" pictures shows. It shows a machine gun on a tripod that has a tailstock and is obviously not a .50 cal as you and some others claimed, and a whole bunch of ammo attached to it. The clip shows Radovan firing indiscriminantly on buildings which appear but are not necessarily empty. I didn't see any evidence that he was aiming at any civilians. I have already said that his firing in the direction of the city was reprehensible.
What seems to be the disagreement? The fact that you called someone a sniper when it was not a sniper, or that you mistook a 7.62 mm machine gun for a .50 cal?
Again, civilians were targetted on both sides. Not all people targetted were civilians. Is there a problem with that? Or are you simply denying that the Muslim side ever did anything wrong?
1. Visiting a war somewhere and taking potshots has been termed "Sniper Tourism".
2. I can and have fired single shots from an M-60 and M-249 though the simple expedient of trigger control, but, again, this does not speak to the core issue here.
3. Nobody said the weapon in the picture was a .50 cal. You said automatic weapons could not be used in the sniper role, and I corrected you, though that effort is looking to be a complete waste of time, leaving you just as ignorant of the capabilities of automatic weapons as when we started this discussion.
Of course, I keep thinking that gaining knowledge is a good thing, but if I were in your shoes and looking to excuse the seige of Sarajevo and the criminal nature of it's prosecution by Bosnian Serb forces, ignorance would probably seem attractive.
So your behavior is understandable in that context.
