    To be fair to Finland they did defeat the Russians during WW2.

    Though that was WW2.

    Think of all the things that have been done in human history over fictional lines on a map. If you want to read more on the root causes of such conflicts I can recommend plenty of books in a pm if you would like.

    Exactly. The Ukrainian military has been ethnically cleansing Russian-speakers in Odessa and Eastern Ukraine. It's completely understandable to be outraged and disgusted at this event, but you have to understand that murder is being performed by both sides, just like in Gaza and basically every civil war in history.

    Yes and the Russian federation still relies on grain supplies from the West. We could starve the bastards before they freeze us.

    People don't like to praise Finland for its actions in WW2 because they fought alongside the Axis.

    They would survive, they have plenty of potatoes and can rely on China for takeaways.

    There's no way it was an accident, you can go on google at any given time and track any civilian flight live in under a minute, not to mention the high tech gear they'd have had alongside the missiles. They wouldn't have just seen a plane in the sky and thought lets shoot that down for a laugh.

    There has to have been a motive for doing it and I very much doubt that killing foreign civilians has anything to do with it. These people aren't common terrorists, they're fighting for a cause and shooting that plane down on the face of it wouldn't help them at all, much the opposite in fact.

    Maybe Russia want a world war? Maybe they've got people who will step on their side if someone else makes the first move?

    Maybe the Ukranian government leaked a lie that top officials would be travelling under disguise hoping for it to be attacked to force NATO's hand to step in a bring around an ultimatum.

    Just two ideas pulled out of a hat with no thought behind them, but there's no way it was an accident.

    exactly, it was not a accident at all, you can't mistake a airliner for a military plane in the tracking system those particular sams have nevermind the automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast hardware that any ****er can buy

    What if they don't like potatoes? What then?

    It would be a breach of human rights to deny a nation of their preferred delicacies. Imagine if Russia came and killed all our pigs and stopped bacon shipments from arriving, the country would collapse.

    The United States claimed a mistake when one of their naval vessels sailing in the Persian Gulf shot down an Iranian passenger plane killing 290 believing it to be a jet fighter about to attack it. That was in 1988.
