So pro-Russian separatists mistakenly shot down a civilian aircraft over the Ukraine?
Is this right so far?
If you're going to start making logical assumptions in here, then we are going to ask you to leave.

MH370 missed on March 7
MH17 Crashes/Shot Down ok July 17
Both Boing 777
Sure all these sevens are just a coincidence, right ?

BBC News is ONLY suggesting the Ukraine conflict is in some way involved, all talking repercussions, sanctions, escalation...nothing whatsoever about accident or incident on board.
Just had a commentator on suggesting like hillbilly4renthas, that the separatists did indeed confirm they fired at a cargo plane at the same time and same area as the Malaysian flight was flying (how large this zone is I don't know). He suggested they have access to more powerful systems and basically 'overshot' their intended target.
Looks like a 'mistake' is the first cohesive story to run?

I dont believe Malaysia put any sanctions on Russia...why would Putin want to shoot down a Malaysian plane? Does not make any sense....Most likely THIS plane was NOT the intended target imo.

I don't know what scares me more actually, who is responsible for the flight shoot down or what could be potentially happening in Gaza while all eyes are on Ukraine. Its not like sleight of hand is a new concept.

Fox News is reporting that the pro-Russian separatists are now denying that they shot anything down.
Reuters reports that body parts have been scattered seven miles within the crash site, an indication that the plane came apart mid-air. A Ukrainian Emergency Ministry official told Reuters that first responders have found at least 100 bodies
