You have NO idea whether this aircraft was shot down because it was misidentified or intentionally shot down knowingly. None. Stop pretending that you do.

There is no question that they intentionally shot down that plane. It is simply inconceivable that they accidentally fired a rocket and it just happened to hit a plane. That plane was shot down because they wanted that plane to be shot down.

There is no question that they intentionally shot down that plane.

Let me play devil's advocate and say: Perhaps not.

Have we not had; in our OWN country; incidences of OUR military tracking and locking onto OUR civilian planes?

Practice - training what ever was the cause, the reports said.

If, just if, someone had ACCIDENTLY hit the fire button - those planes would have dropped just like the Malayian one.
