Yikes!!

NATO,sounds a little to gung-ho.I wouldn't be surprized if we start hearing about this more often.It's one thing to pay attention to your surroundings,but we can't get to paranoid.

i wouldn't be too worried. doesn't sound like anything serious happened. you got to ask: why didn't the nato forces there know of the set before hand? why weren't they informed? if i was going to shoot a film regarding, say, the destruction of a dam/bridge/similar landmark in america by terrorists i'd damn f*cking well make sure the authorities knew about it ....

- qo.

"Nato soldiers stormed a film set in Macedonia after confusing actors with terrorists."

It's good they weren't mistaking terrorists for actors, like you might think. What is a NATO soldier anyway, a French soldier, right?

"Ooops, you looked like a terrorist to me!!!" is what Israeli forces say after they shoot and kill innocent Palestinian children.

EDIT: Grammar.

hrmm at least nobody was killed. It was pretty stupid of these film people not to inform nato of what they were doing.

2 h ours at gunpoint before it was sorted out.
I have to ask the same question as quiet one.. why didn't anyone know about the filming?

If they mistake actors for terrorists theyll probally end up mistaking terrorists for actors. I can see it now....
