They're trying to add to their collection on the wall in the Kremlin. Remember KAL 007? And the crash of the entire Polish delegation that killed Lech Kaczyński? And I'm sure there are a whole lot of others. Overtly shot down and otherwise. The Russians have always been exceptional at indiscriminate slaughter.

Bring in the TWA 800 investigation team. They will have a sure fire answer. /s

The thought of TWA 800 just came into my mind when I heard the breaking news.

Did you hear latest Rupert Murdoch think about buy Time Warner get this if he does that contract that Time Warner did separate with LA Dodgers and LA Lakers get their own channel could be voided and null

Apparenlty there is loophole in monolopy law that if the company did the contract goes belly up the contract they did that time go null and void

Both Russia and Ukraine deploy Buk missiles, but it was Ukraine military advisor who announced it was buk missile. How did he know so quickly?

Did Ukraine shoot down so to blame Russia? False Flag?

Just going from eastern PA to western PA is 8 hours long, by car. There is beautiful mountain sides. Had flown, gone by car, taken a train to eastern/western PA.

BUK is better known under its NATO name SA-17 Grizzly.

OTOH Malaysian Airlines should be known as Eastern Industrial Light and Magic. It seems they provide equipment and extras for the armed conflicts.

I'd check whether Malaysian Airlines leased MH-17 B777 from the same company as they leased MH-370.

Somewhere in some places magnum bottles are being uncorked...

Memo to frequent fliers: Make sure you do know who actually owns the commercial airliners you are flying with.

Would not be surprised if it is the Russians or Russian-based Ukrainian rebels. They have not forgotten that school massacre a by the Muslims a number of years back.

But why would the Russians shoot down a commercial airliner that was flying a pre-planned route? With the S. Korea flight, you can easily just cite stupid communists paranoid that they are be spied on because they saw an airline that “strayed” in their airspace.

But this? That must be one damn stupid pilot, or Putin must really be willing to push it past the breaking point.

“Had flown, gone by car, taken a train...”

Ditto; all three are great, scenic trips, especially the train ride.

Maybe it was Malaysia Airlines Flight 370

Gallows humor, but that was my first thought too.

It does seem peculiar that Malaysian Air has had two airline "incidents" in such a short period of time. Who has a vendetta against Malaysia? Rival muslim factions, perhaps, of which there is no shortage.

Got to remember, no love lost coming from either the Russians or rebel Ukrainians to the Muslims.

Scary. The sick side of my mind came up with the same rationale:

"I’m sure that it was just a short in the center wing tank that caused an explosion."
