So fucked up...

 

  • A Malaysian airliner has crashed in Ukraine, near Russian border
  •  
  • Malaysia Airlines says contact with Flight MH17 from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur was lost at 1415 GMT
  •  
  • There were 280 passengers and 15 crew
    members on board
  • There are reports of bodies and burning wreckage on the ground
  •  
  • The Ukrainian military and pro-Russian rebels have accused each other of shooting down the plane; both sides say they were not responsible
  •  
  • Several airlines, including Lufthansa and Air France, say they will now avoid eastern Ukrainian airspace

Really sad, leaning towards the rebels having done it.. they deny having these types of missiles but a surface-to-air missile was just seen outside a revel stronghold like a week ago :S

not at all >.>

 

If you look at the whole picture i think you will find that it is.

USA will get involved with Russia, Russia have the Chinese on there side. It would be stand of, but its extremely tense and it could spark another war.

Id also agree if i didn't see that the Russians shot down another aircraft on Wednesday i believe, the one nobody gives a shit about because it was a Ukraine Cargo plane. 

Either way tense as fuck

Russians also shot down a Ukrainian fighter jet early today or yesterday...

However, I think that Russia, as a country, are no where near stupid enough to shoot down an international commercial jetliner. You're looking at double figure citizens from a bunch of countries (obviously Holland and U.S. offhand), and there is just no way they are going to instigate that many countries simultaneously. It had to be guerrilla warfare or the repercussions for a country would be fucking dire. That being said it COULD BE a pro-Russian or pro-Ukrainian guerrilla group, but national army of either? Sincerely doubt it, just too many repercussions. Look at the Iranian commercial plane we shot down in '88... there's just too much bullshit that comes with it, countries are too smart nowadays.

Again, not at all, no one will go to war with russia, and china wouldn't join in either because it'd hurt their trades too much
