Thank you. I’m sick of the media trying to equate shooting down military jets with shooting down a passenger aircraft. It doesn’t matter if we agree with one side over the other or neither. 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.
“Military planes are going to be a legitimate target.”
Kiev first tried to say that these were taken down FROM Russia, by a BUK. Now they have backed off of that, saying manpads.
The rebels are claiming one downed by AA fire, and one downed by MANPAD.
It shows the “separatists” have the ability to shoot down planes.
