military planes are going to be a legitimate target

One interesting hypothesis is that a Ukranian fighter jet wasn't just flying near the path of the passenger plane, the cowards were using it for cover.

Two of their planes being shot down since the passenger plane went down gives credence to that argument. So does the deaths of civilians in Luhansk after the passenger plane went down, during what was supposed to be a cease fire.

You will note that today’s releases of info about the shoot-down, never mentioned the fighter that the Russians claimed was near the Malaysian airliner.

They didn’t mention it at all, yay or nay, which really makes me wonder what the Russians will say tomorrow, after the cockpit voice recorder gets released.

Have another shot of vodka -- with reasoning like that you will need it.
