Who has more incentive to use SAMs? The pro-Russian or pro-Ukranian forces?

It is not a civil war.

You do know that Russia invaded a sovereign nation and took over it’s land?
You do know that Russia is consistently attacking and destabilizing the region?

Why do you support that?

PS..you can call me a troll all you want, This is a conservative forum, nobody buys your neo-soviet horseshit.

Planes flying at 33,000 ft along an international flight path are no threat to the air dominance of a piece of dirt claimed by a bunch of lowlife thugs.

wrong, Ukraine is not Russia. Never has been, never will be.

Russians invade, and kill to establish their foothold in a region. The only difference here is that Ukraine is fighting back.

When Russia stops invading, maybe there will be peace, until then you and your excuses for such actions, i’m sure, will continue.

“Planes flying at 33,000 ft along an international flight path are no threat to the air dominance of a piece of dirt claimed by a bunch of lowlife thugs.”

That isn’t fact, that is OPINION.....
An opinion that has absolutely no bearing on the truth, or of finding out the how’s and why’s of this, either.

LOL

They are out there. They can't be bargained with. They can't be reasoned
with. They don't feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And they absolutely will not
stop, ever . . . .

What’s that dude’s name, Gerkin? He was gloating over the shoot-down earlier. What did Russia Today have to say about it?

On second thought, I’m sensing a little bit of desperation on their part. But it will pass. It always does.

Russia’s federal air traffic agency Rosaviatsia has said that three days ago Ukraine’s National Security and Defense Council closed the airspace over eastern Ukraine because of the so-called “anti-terrorist operation” that Kiev conducts in the region.

Earlier a representative of Donetsk People’s Republic said that civil aviation planes could not fly over Donetsk and Lugansk regions. He added that all necessary traffic control and navigation equipment was damaged.

“Dispatching support of all passenger flights is being conducted from Kiev. How this plane could be there - is not clear,” a representative of Donetsk People’s Republic said.

Thanks. For a second I thought a plane might have been shot down, or something.
