If it did not have information on any commercial flights approaching, then that raises the question of why it fired on this particular flight. It cannot have been the first that passed over the area.

You’re just assuming that. If they diverted from their usual flight path then they were somewhere they didn’t usually fly.

The plane was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. Once the Russky terrorists got their hands on that weapon, it was only a matter of time until this happened. If it wasn't this flight, it would have been another. They had only acquired the BUK a few days ago and it was probably only moved into that particular position that very same morning.
