Yes, I know it is hard to see at these distances. If you're not sure, don't shoot! Okay, so, I guess that they were sure - and deluded.

The thing is, they can't. Cameras look a lot like RPGs or other weapons and if they hesitate, they're dead. Blame the insurgents for planting terrorists in the middle of civilians and using them as human shields.
I'd also question anything put up on YouTube. No journalistic integrity at all and you don't know how it is been edited or even if it is real footage.
