How does that give the military the right to shoot at them? Initiating
force against an unarmed person who is not trying to harm you is
unwarranted. Cases of self-defense or warfare are one thing. Attacking
unarmed civilians is another.

How is this any different than military wearing uniforms? They are
simply trying to identify which side they are on. When they are clearly
identifiable and the military attacks them, it is clear what the agenda
is. Stop the press from reporting the story.
