Ukrainian political sources are saying it was shot down, which suggests it was Russian or at least pro-Russian forces who did it if indeed that is what happened.

Update - Ukrainian Interior Ministry adviser says missile that reportedly brought down Malaysia plane was fired by separatists

Pro-Russian seperatist insurgents have recently claimed a number of take-downs of military aircraft.

What's worse? If Malaysia crashed another plane and the separatists took credit, or if they actually managed to shoot down a plane full of civilian

Edit: sounds like they confirmed it was shot down.

An actual shooting down. The reports I'm reading are that the plane was over 30,000 feet up. As a non-military guy, I'm pretty horrified that a non-first-world military has strong enough targeting to take down an airliner 30k feet in the air from the ground.

Other flights are now being diverted around Ukraine.

A flight from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur carrying nearly 300 people is probably going to have a fair mix of nationalities. This could get ugly.

They were supplied state of the art SAM missile launchers for freak sake they have been taking down military jets. A civilian airline is a piece of cake.

Putin has kept those separatist assholes well supplied, they're Russian trained and Russian supplied.

Maybe I was unclear the way I wrote it. It's pretty disturbing that a group that isn't actually a country is being given targeting technology that allows them to shoot aircraft out of the sky 5+ miles in the air.

There's a reason that actual militaries use things like IFF. Putin's deep in the excrement now.

If Israel had fired the rocket, Tommy would justify it as collateral damage.

Donetsk separatist boss Strelkov, Kremlin's proxy in war, says he ordered shootdown thinking plane was Ukrainian https://t.co/uaWKVlsA7q—

Spoke to Ukraine separatist leader Tsarev. Says they don't have the weapons to take down #MH17. Hung up when asked about their BUK missiles—

Yeah, best case there are only a few citizens from a couple European democracies. The weaponry (and the knowledge of how to use it) has to come from Russia, people are going to be pissed off and Russia isn't known for acting level-headed when people are accusing them of this kind of excrement. Could get all kinds of ugly - hopefully it serves as a catalyst for peace talks and Russia deescalating its presence in the region, but I'm not too optimistic.
