I'll remind you that the U.S. ACCIDENTALY shot down an Iranian airliner a few years back with a sophisticated antiaircraft system. When you think you're under attack, things can get confusing.

I doubt that any of the three parties shot it down deliberately because I can't see any motive.

They deliberately shot it down thinking it was an Antonov. They were not looking to shoot down a civilian plane. That’s what happened when we shot down the Iranian plane too. We thought it was a military aircraft. It wasn’t. It was still very deliberate.
