Malaysia Airlines Plane confirmed shot down over Ukraine

  • A PAC
    Strelkov is taking responsibility for it. Someone needs to put a bullet between his eyes. One if the most self-righteous, entitled assholes in a long time.

    Well, at least he's not going to a Vegas fundraiser....absolutely NOTHING can interfere with that. ;)

    It seems some assholes think the best way to make a point is to kill innocent people...go figure.

    I'm waiting for CNN to bust out the old Atari "Missile Defense" game to illustrate how a surface to air missile takes out a plane.

    The president took 38 seconds out of his press conference to address it. "It looks like it may be a terrible tragedy."

    1.65 seconds per dead American.

    And then proceeded with jokes and prepared remarks. What a complete embarrassment to The Office.

    How many planes does Malaysia Airline have .... should be running out soon

    Ukrainian government adviser posted this picture to his fb supposedly of the smoke trail left by the missile that took down the airliner



    and a Buk launcher strolling around Eastern Ukraine earlier today.....supposedly the piece of equipment that was used

    It's a terrible tragedy. But the president of our country devoting very little effort to mention this tragedy in passing is pretty sad. Obama nuthuggers are so fucking blind it's pathetic.
  • SportsAndLady
    -23 Americans dead

    -Obama: it looks like it may be a tragedy.

    The guy is an idiot. But keep making your jokes about republicans, your nuthuggers and late night comedy hosts will get a good laugh, I guess.

    This isn't meant to be political, but does it seem to everyone else that the world is spinning apart?

    I'm not old enough to remember the turbulent 60's, but am old enough to remember the Cold War and this era seems to surpass it in uncertainty. We're seeing:

    -Russia/Ukraine crisis with an embiggened (it is a perfectly cromulent word) Russia that has no fear of the US and our allies
    -Israel/Gaza conflict
    -General North Korea idiocy
    -Inability to secure the US borders resulting in a humanitarian crisis - and immigration issues in Western Europe, particularly the UK
    -India/Pakistan continuing debacle
    -US and allies still in Afghanistan
    -An economy that is supported primarily by historically and artificially low interest rates
    -Rampant inflation in basic consumer goods and education costs resulting in record debt levels
    -NSA spying even on our allies and own citizens

    Am I missing anything else? Again, not being political (as much as possible) but I hardly believe this was the hope and change that the world has been expecting.

    Obama calls the shot down plane a "terrible tragedy". Flying into a mountain with no visibility is a tragedy. Missiles aren't tragedy. It's murder.

    ^^^

    My guess is that the rebels (if this is indeed the case) thought it was a Ukrainian military transport plane. There is no reason to take out a passenger airliner when plenty of them travel in the airspace. Still doesn't make it right. And Russia needs to answer for it.

    I'm beginning to think the true nuthuggers are Obama detractors who seem obsessed with hanging on to the guy's every action.
