Do you realize Putin started this whole thing by grabbing the Crimea?

This thing started long before that. McCain Tells Ukraine Protesters ‘America Is With You’ - Dec 2013.

The plane was only flying across Ukraine air space from Amsterdam? to Kuala Lampur, Maylasia....someone said there were Americans on board but not sure.

This is not the missing Maylasia plane. A regular Maylasian passenger jet flying at 33000 feet over the Donetski airspace like it normally does.

I can’t verify those facts except from News....we will get full info in next few hours.

Many of these separatists have been previously identified as Spetznas personnel. It’s my feeling a great deal of them are Russian regulars operating with more than just tacit approval.


Early today Ukraine reported capturing some Russian regular troops w/o insignia. So called Green Men. Obviously that news got blown over by the airliner shoot down. We’ll hear more about that later.

Just. Stop. It. Already.

McCain was speaking to protestors who were already protesting.

Patton admired Rommel, and they were enemies. How is that nuts? Sheesh....Grow up!

Did Churchill "admire" Hitler? Did Eisenhower "admire" Mao?

I have no idea what you mean when you say you "admire" his leadership. Words have meanings. Here is the definition of admire:

"to have a feeling of great respect for someone or something"

"to regard with wonder, pleasure, or approval."

I have no admiration for this KGB agent who has no respect for liberty, freedom, individual rights, and national sovereignty.

Yes, he posted on social media that he shot down "another AH-16" today, with two video clips of the plane getting shot down. Now that it turns out to be a passenger jet, he deletes his own post and claims that it wasn't him.

Shepard Smith said 23 Americans on board, and Separatists are known as Terrorists there in Ukraine. The rebels took credit for shooting plane down thinking it was Ukraine plane. Bodies everywhere not incinerated.

Obama's media (which includes Shep Smith) wants this to be the separatists/terrorists. Expect a lot of assumptions being voiced in that direction unless/until someone can prove without a doubt that it was someone else.

CAWW is busy posting pictures with bodies just above your post. It was requested that it not be done, but some seem to be beyond hope.
