The point was that getting killed in crossfire and being targeted for no good reason are completely different things. Troops on the ground wouldn't have made that mistake; they can easily see that the people were carrying cameras, not guns.
Sure, innocent people will get in firefights between US forces and Iraqis, but there isn't any reason to open fire on a group of individuals who have done nothing and are not armed. Then to fire on the vehicle at the end when it hadn't done anything? It's pathetic.
