I dont believe it, it is a very common commercial airline route, I bet they hoped it was an American or EU airliner.

Those are nothing alike, very stupid analogy.

Basically from what is being said is that the dumb separatist didn't know how to properly operate the equipment. Saw a dot on the radar, shot the missile then didn't know how to self destruct it when they figured out it wasn't a cargo plane.

Here is the unclassified data.
A standard Buk battalion consists of a command vehicle, target acquisition radar (TAR) vehicle, six transporter erector launcher and radar (TELAR) vehicles and three transporter erector launcher (TEL) vehicles. A Buk missile battery consists of two TELAR and one TEL vehicle. The battery requires no more than 5 minutes to set up before it is ready for engagement and can be ready for transit again in 5 minutes. The reaction time of the battery from target tracking to missile launch is around 22 seconds[citation needed].
In the forward compartment of the missile, a semi-active homing radar head (9E50, Russian: 9?50, 9?50?1), autopilot equipment, power source and a warhead is located. The homing method chosen was proportional navigation.

I agree. Putin is a thug POS that is trying to reassemble parts of the old Soviet Union empire. We need to send arms and weapons to Ukraine. The US and Western Europe better wake up.

Well, this will put a damper on Putin for a while.
Perfect time to get him to make concessions.
If only we had someone capable of doing that.

Why the frick were any commercial airline flying over the region? The FAA obviously knew it was a dangerous situation and forbid US flights over the area.
