Doubt they will confirm any until next of kin have been notified.


What???

They wouldn't wait to notify next of Kin if they were going to give a number... They may wait to notify if they were going to release names, but not a number.

Sounds like as of now, they don't believe any Americans were on board, but they are double checking people with dual citizenship.

I think they would. Plus you don't have at this time MA confirming anything on the passenger list. They will not say any nationality. Some countries have said they believe they had citizens on board but no country is giving numbers.

From updated CNN article:


Vice President of Malaysia Airlines Europe Huib Gorter told reporters that the 15 crew members on Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 were all Malaysian nationals.
He gave a breakdown of the known nationalities of the 280 passengers: 154 were Dutch, 27 were Australians, 23 were Malaysians, 11 were Indonesian, six were from the United Kingdom, four were from Germany; four were from Belgium, three were from the Philippines and one was Canadian. Authorities were still trying to determine the nationalities of the other passengers.

So now waiting for all of the people in this thread that said Obama was a horrible leader for not changing his day because Americans were dead to admit they were wrong...

I won't hold my breath.

I despise Obama as much as anyone. Maybe more than a lot of people. But it's absurd to place any blame on him for this. He has to have intelligence info and actual facts before he can act.

If it comes out that Russia did shoot the plane down, something needs to be done. Phone calls and red lines are making a mockery of this country. And I'm not only talking about Russia. It's almost like no one respects the United States anymore. Our allies can't count on us, the Middle East is in more turmoil than usual (which says a lot), our borders are being invaded, and several planes have been shot down in the area of Russia / the Ukrane in the last week or so.

We don't have to go to war to keep those fricktards in their place. They used to fear a response from the US. They don't anymore. This country is in desperate need of a leader, and we just don't have that now. Everyone in the world can see how pathetic POTUS is.

The next few days will mean a lot, IMO. If it comes out that Russia did shoot the plane down and there were Americans on it, we have to respond. If we keep backing down, the illegal chirren won't be our only problem.

Oh, and I'm never flying Malaysia airlines.

I don't think there's going to be a Malaysia Airlines for much longer. But even if there is, I'm with you--wouldn't even consider flying them!

Yes, as usual, the put your head in sand libertarians on this board, will tell us this in none of our business,Russia is looking after it's own interest,blah,blah,blah and somehow this is the US govt fault from our foriegn policy mistakes the last 50 years.

If we just leave everybody else alone they leave us alone,right?

Jesus,I hope this tragedy is some type of reality check for libitards...doubt it though

What does this crash have to do with the United States? This was not our plane, and Ukraine is not our protectorate.

Way to disregard my entire post and select one sentence.

I actually took up for that sorry piece of shite that you snuggle with when you dress up like a dog. Just shut up.

You took up for him by calling him pathetic and insinuating that because of him the world doesn't fear the USA and that's the reason for the crash. That's what you call taking up for him?

I've got news for you, moron... Russia and the Soviet Union did a lot worse things to places like Ukraine, Georgia, Latvia, etc. before this plane crash and before Obama.

And you didn't answer my question.... what did this crash have to do with the USA? We haven't been able to police Russia since, well, FOREVER. Fear or not of the USA had nothing to do with Flight 17, no matter how hard you want to make it Obama's fault.

What would you suggest, or are you suggesting going to war, because realistically there is nothing else to be done.

No more or less then any other time since World War 2. But don't let that upset your narrative.

quote:

bullshite and you well know this.

quote:

the Middle East is in more turmoil than usual (which says a lot),


The mideast has been in turmoil since 1948. This is nothing new, but once again feel free to lie about it.

quote:

our borders are being invaded,


Now you're just being stupid.

quote:

So? Unless you are advocating going to war, who gives a shite really?

Really, tell me oh great one how did they fear us. Back during the cold war when we had all those cool nukes? They didn't fear us then since they had their own set.

So short of war how are we going to "put them in their place?"

No not really, just another day in the world.

She doesn't know what needs to be done. She's posting just to hear herself be critical of Obama in the hope of winning some brownie points from her fellow dimwits.
