They show them under attack , as you can hear the rockets being fired, but you can never see who is firing .

There's lots of footage on youtube.
But yeah, you'll never see who is fighting against the British Army.

you think with their camera capabilties they can zoom in.

Its all a con to show people back home, they are actually doing something when the camera is around.

Obviously the cameraman is not going to endanger their own life filming the enemy. You're never going to really ever find footage of a genuine battle that includes the enemy and your own side.

Well yes it could be dangerous, but cameras do have the ability to zoom and all.

Not that I'm saying soldiers are screaming and shooting at nothing :hmm:

The camera man will do anything for money. People will do anything for money. That siege video I posted looks a good one...
