Malaysia isn't going to attack Russia.
replyI highly doubt the Russians/separatists running the Buk knew the identity of the flight before shooting it down.
replyMost certainly not, but I don't see how that is relevant.
replyThe problem (from a victim/Dutch perspective) is that there is complete denial from the Russian side (despite heaps of evidence around the people involved, origin and transport of the launcher from Russian territory).
Even if Russian judges and prosecutors are completely corrupt and biased, an actual investigation/trial is the least that would be expected here, but all we got are the bald faced lies that Russia is particularly fond of.
At least some vengeance has been already done in blood, although indirectly, given how oversized has been dutch support for Ukraine compared to other similarly sized countries.
reply> Shooting down civilian *American* aircraft like that would seem to just be for an even more strong response…
