[edit] Protests against OSCMAR
Students for Justice in Palestine held four protests outside Oscmar in 2005. One member of Students for Justice in Palestine, Harmeet Sooden, is a former employee of Oscmar.
These protests make various assumptions regarding the legitimacy or lack thereof of military force in general, and training for effective/ targeted engagements in particular. Other viewpoints could consider that improved aim & targeting, in actuality, might result in greater justness & accuracy of military action; with fewer civilian deaths and less collateral damage. Viewpoints will, of course, vary.
