Hi guys!
What a mess huh? Imo everything on this planet has agendas agendas. I am certainly not minimizing the families here. Yesterday, as it was breaking it was screaming info like it was known that it was intention.
IMO, the whole mess has to be taken in context. They had been shooting down aircraft for several days. They have been telling the world that this is their intention. There were tweets that said you fly over our area we will shoot you from the sky , and they started doing so this week.
From the recoding between the terrorists and Russia did <IMO, sound as if they were confused in terms of it was military or commercial. The questions asked , contextually, where indicative of confusion. The other dude did escalate as he was getting clarification (he cussed!) and it was clear that it was a commercial airliners. Tone of voice, speed of talking, the terrorist said it says MAL on a piece of the wreckage.
I think the terrorists messed up. When I first heard that was my initial sense. Then later I learn that that type of killing machine uses heat seeking (not like Israel stuff- targeted) missiles. If I aimed at it one thing and there was another thing producing heat it just might go after that .
Then I learned that it is basically three separate components. The missle launcher, like a control board, AND An ENTITY THAT IS TYPICALLY CONNECTED to a sophisticated radar system (off site) (upper level) that confirms more details about what they are considering shooting down.
The terrorists only had two compnents and were missing the component that could give much more clarity if it was commerical or military
Per Wiki: The Buk missile system may be controlled by an upper level command post system
I think it would fair to conclude that the terrorists don’t have the time or expertise to get properly trained , they are obviously hotheads etc.
I am not implying that anything they are doing over there is “OK”{, but a parent would respond (and the consequences) would be different if a child dropped a vase by accident , or slammed it on the floor on purpose.
All I am saying (and this could be a start for good thing (end) the war over the over there. Is IMO the tragedy is being “used” by not giving the story the whole picture as outlined above.
The fact that they snuck the shooter and hypothetically the black boxes in the darkness of night –to Russia -- dumb move Putin. No matter what happens now, it will always cast a shadow over whatever they say. In any NY context anyone doing sneaky stuff has a reason to do so. Technally he is breaking the law.violating International Civil Aviation Organization. They are like a worldwide police of aviation policies, Link below)
"The sight could be contaminated". THE SITE IS COMTAMINED – period. There is video of people moving stuff, reports that bodies being stepped on . Bodies tell many stories in crashes. Many. Connected the body parts to the right person is huge too. Where they were sitting, can tell where missle hit, what went on in the cabin as the plane disintegrated, was anyone breathing on the way down. How the plane broke up in air. Speed at impact speed on the desent All sorts of stuff.
The MAL guys <modsnip> issued a statement in which it explained that at the time of the crash the MH17 was at
Flight Level 330 (33,000 feet), so the aircraft was
above restricted airspace.. The confusion on this angle is that flight paths had been resticted in parts of the country earlier but this specific flight plan is the one being used. It got more confused in that some carriers choose to on their own . Then to add insult to injury CNN reports that right now the flight number is flying the same route WITH THE SAME FLIGHT NUMBER. That is just known you change the flight number instantly, an never use it again. Schmucks. Its a respect thing. To not change the flight plan to save fuel money is just an insult. Obvioul,y they learned nothing...........................
