Fish - your requote of me intentionally disregards the situation that photographer CHOSE to put himself in.
Hanging out with armed men when armed men - by law - are subject to lethal military force.
This - ^ - is all that is needed realize that while one can handwring over it - it was the decision by those reporters to walk down a road in the company of armed civilians - knowing the situation - and near a firefight - that means they chose to put themselves into a situation where they could be killed. That was their choice - and it cost them their lives.
Had there not been an NSC directive - then we could all discuss the issue of "did it look like an RPG" or whatnot. But the reality is armed civilians were subject to no warning lethal attacks - these reporters knew that - and chose to be with such a group. That decisions killed them. Unfortunate - but no one's fault but their own.
