One US citizen who has not lived here since he was 5 died in that crash. Those poor people on the plane were all pawns in a political game over who gets Ukraine and it’s resources.
That is not a reason to get involved in a war where many more Americans will die under the excuse of “Freedom for Ukraine.” That is how they try to sell it to the sheep, but neither side really cares about the freedom part for Ukraine.
If we are to use your logic, we should hear all kinds of drumbeats from the Netherlands to send their own troops to fight Putin. They lost the most in the aircraft.
This unfortunate demise of this plane has created an excuse for the US to get involved militarily because the US citizens are not ready to get involved in more war. The Obama admin can now try and use this to make EU get on board stronger punishment on Russia.
The US/EU were behind the original coup and try to pretend they are not. Russia also denies they are involved, even though they are.
The whole thing is about nothing people are supposed to believe it is.
Meanwhile we have a real sovereignty issue in America that this admin has created and nothing is being done to stop it.
I guess I'm OK with us taking up the a$$ a few more times. But the day will come, believe me.
