I just don't understand why he stayed so long. He could have waited a bit, scoped out any leaders, taken them out and backed off during the confusion, instead he stayed for hours and gave himself away.

Its a proven tactic that if you want to inflict massive casualties having a sniper force everyone behind cover after a missile attack causes many deaths that would have been preventable if the wounded were treated in time

But a single sniper, no backup, no spotter?

Not sending a second guy at least seems really stupid honestly, but while it was tactically stupidly executed, it was strategically valid.
