Russia shoots down a civilian airliner, killing many civilians, and they have the gall to say shit like this? Have y'all considered shit like this is why people don't like Russia?
Russia shoots down another civilian airliner....
They are just rinsing and repeating the lies they told over MH17.. Putin and his regime are monsters. I hope I live long enough to hear news of Putin's violent death. I hope he suffers.
The difference is that that one was on porpoise
MH17 was also on purpose to some extent. It was a civilian airliner with its transponder turned on, you can't really mistake it for something else

That poor aquatic animal!
Sorry, this is one of the latinisms my romance head can't code in english. I will leave it like that because it is probably funny for native speakers.
It's funny, but not uncommon for native English speakers too, don't be hard on yourself! Honestly I just thought your phone had autocorrected since they're so close to each other.
They don't give a shit if you like them lol they don't give a shit if they kill a billion civilians on a billion planes. In the end, if the greedy power-hungry fucks around the world end up being in charge of a radioactive rock littered with dead they will still be happy with the result.
I sometimes feel like that IS their plan
Sounds like Russia just admitted they did it then. There’s no reason for them to say it this way otherwise.
They could have said “we’ll work with you” or provided proof they didn’t do it, or other constructive things, but instead they say this.
Eh, providing proof of not having done something is very hard without having proof of how it was done. But otherwise I agree.
Isn’t that the point though?
That is one colossal fuckup. I'm wondering how that even happened. I can understand how a bunch of bozos blew up MH17 after being given AA weapons. I can even understand Prigozhin "blowing up his own grenade on his private jet". But this? Had to be actually competent military crew firing at a civilian aircraft, coming from a friendly country, that was scheduled to arrive at local airport, with transponder and all... like, wtf?
I know this isn't much, but, on behalf of Russians, my apologies and condolences for those who perished on this flight.
Russia did it and denied request for emergency landing.
Russia can smoke a fat dick.
No they can’t. With the sanctions imposed there’s been a shortage.
All they got to smoke are tiny dicks.
And even then, it’s illegal. Straight to jail. >:(
Same for Azerbaijan. Warmongers both of them
Jesus Christ. Look at the damned picture. The ass end if peppered with tiny holes. Anyone think birds did that?!
Have a look at how missiles work:

And if you call Hollywood bullshit, have a look at any number of Ukrainian war videos. Don't have one in mind ATM.
Who in their right fucking mind prints "Russia says" in the headlines like it's ever going to be a thing anyone should ever believe?
Fucking hell.
Russia says, "Bop shewop shewop, lama lama ding dong," or words to that effect.
"Russia says, it's a highly likable country with great views you should check out from that window over there"

Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
