...” Russia simply recklessly gave such weapons to a bunch of goons they fund and call “separatists”, or Russian operators were on the scene and screwed up just as bad”.....
Well with that kind of thinking then all the deaths and bombardment, destruction and deaths of citizens in East Ukraine is the fault of the US/EU for supplying Ukraine/Kiev with tanks, missles etc.
Seems to me there’s plenty of blame to go all around for every party in this theater of war...and it is a war.
Where is your evidence for that???
I'm pretty sure we aren't sending the Ukraine tanks and missiles. I know they want lethal aid, but I do believe our feckless leader Obama chose to give the Ukraine MRE's and non lethal aid instead.

Yes, that will be the excuse Putin uses. When your hands are all over the shootdown of a civilian airliner, the "well there is plenty of blame to go around" argument is the first fall back position.
