There was a visibly armed group with ak-47's. What were the two journalists doing with them? Unless of course, they were security detail. Than they wouldn't be insurgents. Also though, who knew that they weren't insurgents. You can argue about rules of engagement if thats the case. But also, how many other engagements occurred liked this that were similar that were insurgents. It's easy to see how they are similar. Two days ago : Group of hardcore insurgents. Today : armed group with ak-47's (where apparently a journalist was nearby).

I'm still divided on who they were. But they were armed. And it goes to show, the US military isn't gonna fire warning shots, and you are not going to get away. Even if your crawling your gonna be assumed hostile. It's that 30 second engagement window, that doesn't quit. After the dusk settled, you can see the visibly wounded guy, and the Apache crew watching his intent. Then a van pulls up. With people running out. It is true, this is nothing like hollywood or xbox. Graphic.
