Will be interesting to see how NATO reacts. For once they may be forced into calling out Russia's bluff. Will be interesting to see who gets Girkin first, I imagine the Russians are already working on making sure he has no chance to talk.

Even terrorists can't keep from making stupid fucking facebook and twitter posts.
I may hate social media but in cases like these I love it. Where people make spur of the moment post and forget you can't remove anything from the internet completely.

Apparently this was deleted from the sepratists Twitter. Don't have translation, but that's apparently a BUK.

To be fair to social media, propaganda/messaging is a huge component to terrorism/rebellion. Facebook/twitter/other social media is just the newest version of that.

anyone who posts an image of dead bodies (there's a lot going around) is getting a temp ban. Links are fine just mark them as NSFW.

Ukraine, officially, says they have evidence of Russian military involvement, and have confirmed that it was absolutely shot down.

They're really NSFL. I'm pretty immune to dead bodies, but there's something heart-wrenching about seeing them with a plane crash. I always assumed bodies were vaporized in these types of accidents.

Yeah reddit is the #1 source of breaking news for these incidents. But all the best stuff gets posted here pretty quickly.

CNN is saying the missle system was stolen from the Ukranian military and does not mention Russia being involved.

The Russian are claiming no involvement. I don't believe them.

So, not like Malasian Airlines needed this, right?

And not like there was any tension on the Russian/Ukrainian border already, right?

Holy crap. What a mess.

By "no involvement", they mean they just gave them the missile system, right? Or are they denying that also?
