- This command might be buggy in ArmA (or the description regarding enemy status is wrong). See this discussion.

- Setting the civilian side to be the enemy of any other side will result in the other side attacking inanimate mission editor placed objects such as empty vehicles and static objects, since these objects belong to the civilian side.

- Be aware that this command only sets the friendliness of one side. If you want to have both sides attacking each other, you have to set both:
Resistance setFriend [East, 0]; East setFriend [Resistance, 0];

- (Arma 3 1.30 stable) It is possible to make a side hostile towards itself.
west setFriend [west, 0];
It is only possible to do so with west/blufor, east/opfor, independent/resistance and civilian. This essentially creates a free for all deathmatch. Affects AI behaviour too.
