NBC News: All indications say this was shot down from the Russian border. NOT confirming it was Russian military.
It was Pro Russian Rebels that shot it down, with the help of Russia arming them. So Russia has deniability.

Pilot quality isn't a factor when a commercial airline is shot down.
And I'm pretty when they take off, the pilot doesn't look at the co-pilot and go "which way do you want to go today?"

Do you even 8th grade physics bro?
I am probably farther removed from 8th grade than most of you.
Plus I didn't think about my post deeply.
Plus at this point I don't give a shite.

If it was a heat seeker that hit an engine on the wing, then the plane may have stayed relatively intact most of the way down, breaking up when it hit the ground.

This.
Did they know who the plane was? How would shooting down a Malaysian jet help their cause?

They just didn't want anyone flying in their airspace. It's military posturing to be dick heads and be "taken seriously"

@CBSNews - UPDATE: FAA prohibited US carriers from flying in the area where Malaysia Airlines flight #MH17 was shot down
..Im guessing those surface to air missiles had plenty to do with that

basically going on the order of shoot down anything and everything. it's not like anyone is going to go to war over this.
We aren't going to get involved so no one else will.
