      Pro-Russian separatists, apparently?

      This is an act of war against Malaysia.


      this is an act of war against every country / family that had a person on that plane.



      small political / military groups are getting the type of firepower needed to bring down a commercial jetliner @ 30,000 feet. the world just got scarier.

              Any move against pro Russian seperatists by NATO/West would lead to massive Russian response.

              But this act is unforgivable. An act of pure evil and terror. WTF has Malaysia ever done to anyone?

                Just like for ISIS, the Taliban [all types], the groups in Ukraine et al, drug cartels - someone is selling them these military grade weapons.

                Word is it was a SAM.

                  Doubt it.

                  If Nato/West got involved in securing Ukrainian territory without stepping into Russia then Russia would not do ****.

                  They have a military sure, but nothing remotely close to US.

                  The 6th fleet in the black sea alone would take out a heavy chunk of Russia's western based military.

                    On the ground in Europe, Russia can bring massive force to the picture.

                    In any case, no one wants war - but such acts cannot go unpunished.

                      From the Russians just a couple of weeks back

                      The self-defense forces of Donetsk People***8217;s Republic seized control of a Ukrainian anti-air military installation, RIA Novosti reports.

                      "The forces of Donetsk People***8217;s Republic assumed control of A-1402 military base," the militia's representative said. According to him, it is an anti-aircraft missile forces facility equipped with Buk mobile surface-to-air missile systems.

                      During the last several days the militia took control of two internal security troops' installations in eastern Ukraine.
