Ninja fetus posted:Ha. They've removed it. For those interested. Malaysia Airlines posted a picture of a cute teddybear in a pilotseat. The picture was followed up by a tweet about the crashed plane in Ukraine. http://www.mediaite.com/online/malaysia-airlines-deletes-teddy-bear-tweet-following-plane-crash/ Tweets below the picture (before it was removed) were still things like "Screw your bear, go look for your drat plane" from days ago

zen death robot posted:The Pentagon just said that the cargo plane that was shot down Monday was taken down by a SAM from the Russian side of the border. So again, it's a bit soon to say it was Ukranian separatists, if it was even shot down. I'm sure those pesky Ukrainian separatists just happened to sneak over to Russia, shoot down the plane, and then sneak back in to Ukraine.

So again, it's a bit soon to say it was Ukranian separatists, if it was even shot down. the separatists have had covert, non-uniformed Russian soldiers leading them and fighting with them since literally day 1 so when you see separatists in a news report, just assume it means Russian soldiers also they've captured plenty of military hardware from Ukraine since the start of the conflict, and Ukraine is an operator of the Buk family of missiles (SA-11 etc), and also S-200 and S-300 surface to air missile launchers

How would that help russian interests at all? It doesn't help separatists' interests either, but but professionals should know better than random surly rebels.
