Moved the goalposts then.

You were claiming it was the legal position
Nope I said I agree with how the paras dealt with the situation and it can be legal to kill civillians in certain circumstances. If your life is at threat or other military is in threat then the use of lethal force is acceptable and fine.

No. You clearly stated the rules of engagement incorrectly
 
You are supposed to warn civillians that you will shoot them if they ignore that warning then tough luck. Sometimes it is inappropriate to warn them once again tough luck.
 
You were quoting rules of engagement and saying how it was ok to kill civilians

Which is different to the actual legal position and the actual rules of engagement.

Your personal opinion doesn't change them, even if you don't like them.

As I say. It is perfectly legal to kill civillians in the circumstances of being shot at which there were shots fired at the soldiers.
 
And now you're going round in circles again.

Your personal opinion is different to the actual legal position
 
If you feel that your life is at threat, I suppose you would think, “best not fire back at them”
