Why would Easterlings travel through dagorlath and the brown lands to go to mordor when they could travel through rhun, their homeland, where it's safer. Plus travelling through Ithlion would be easier for Southrons.

They are simply well armoured Haradrim. Even though that isn't right either.

MOVIES Um, no. That is clearly an easterling shield in the first picture. Those easterlings clearly came from Harad. They could have gone into Khand and up to the black Gate. They were not intented to be Haradrim, and are Easterlings. Period. Soo, you are saying they did the red route instead of the blue? Not everything is logical.Besides,you can look it up. They are intented to be easterlings, regardless of the route they took. Mind saying exactly where that was said, I did do that. I searched easterlings two towers. Every source refered to them as easterlings.

This is one example. That is like saying that if you google Gondorian armor it's plate armor because everyone is so delusional to think it is the truth. Because it is in the movies. Just because it isn't in the books doesn't mean it isn't in the movies. If toys are selling them as easterlings, then they are easterlings.

Heck, even in the mod, the easterling look similar to the easterlings in the movie. There have been errors in naming toys before, besides people latched on to the fact that those Haradrim were Easterlings, try selling those as Haradrim and see how well you do, ignoring copyright and general lack of awareness of it ofcourse. Yeah, right. Everything points towards them being Easterlings. You denying it won't change anything. Except logistics and where they came from. What makes you think that they came from Harad? Just because they entered the Black Gate by the left? Besides, they weren't carrying wagons or bags, so in my opinion they were just returning from a patrol or another mission not too far from the Black Gate. We didn't see the entire army, and besides, patrols are not massive armies hundreds strong.
