From the Moscow Times...

The story can be seen here.

With all the media attention to this tragedy, there hasn't been a lot of discussion yet about whether or not you ought to be using anti-aircraft rockets if you're intoxicated.

There also hasn't been much mention of electronic identification systems like IFF or ATR. And even if you aren't military you can go to this website to identify anything on radar which may be flying in your area, or anywhere else in the world, if you choose the location you wish to view. 

So there's absolutely no excuse for shooting down a commercial airliner and then trying to say "you thought it was a military aircraft". That's just patently obvious bullshit to cover your ignorance and incompetence. So let's just get that on the table right now.
