They aren't decreasing exposition to terrorism, they are applying it selectively so that the public is afraid of threats coming from without rather than within. If anything it's worse since it skews the public towards a more antagonistic view of the world abroad and nurtures a tribalistic, exclusionary mentality.

If I'm not mistaken Buk missiles climb quite a bit above their target and then strike down.

It's not like your average airliner has a missile warning system. They didn't scream because they didn't see the missile with their names on it.

The loving missile also detonated right outside the cockpit, guided in by the nose cone navigational radar. The pilots didn't have time to scream because they got shredded by 800 some-odd iron fragments before whatever was left of their lungs was liquefied by the concussive force of 70 kilos of military-grade explosives detonating a few meters away.

There's a pretty active MH17 Truther community on Twitter, lots of cross over between them and pro-Assad, pro-Putin, and pro-Trump types. The last significant MH17 news was Russia finally submitted their radar data to the JIT in the correct format. Also this interview https://twitter.com/marcelvandenber/status/901062510668853249 Good bit on the Dutch police's opinion of Bellingcat and our influence on their work (Google Translated): quote:Bellingcat

Anyways, that just means the 17 inch diameter Mach 3 missile they can't see with the naked eye until the last few milliseconds is behind the ceiling/walls of the cabin rather than the floor/walls.

Nyash Myash has been owning herself too hard recently. She wouldn't be allowed to do that if there were any serious plans for her. Article doesn't even mention the only serious female candidate, Valentina Matvienko.

Poklonskaya is legitimately insane, unfortunately. Her weird facial expression is due to some head trauma she's suffered when arresting a local mobster, and it it probably affected not only her face. For the past several months she's been leading a campaign to ban the film Matilda that tells a story of then prince Nicholas dating a ballet dancer (an absolute historical fact). Because Nicholas II and his family are martyrs, it's somehow disrespectful to show what Nichols had been up to before his marriage, and the film should be banned according to the law protecting religious feelings. Thankfully, the court decided not to ban the movie (probably more due to the fact that it was filmed with state money), but the original claim included gems like 'the Czar is portrayed negatively in the film, because he dates a ballet dancer who wasn't very beautiful in real life'.

The Czech Alcoholic-in-Chief now has a transparent bank account for campaign purposes, as in you can actually see the balance and all transactions. The account number is also published and you're free to donate to him if you want, so... TBH he should be just glad it's not much, much worse than this.
