It sickens me to see how some people are using the MH17 disaster to squarely pin the blame on Malaysian Airlines. It couldve happened to any civilian aircraft flying over a zone of conflict; the fact that it happened to Malaysian Airlines on the back of the MH370 disaster is indeed quite unfortunate. However, the MH17 shot-down was not something that couldve been anticipated or avoided (unlike some aspects of MH370). Eurocontrol said Ukrainian authorities had barred aircraft from ground level to 32,000 feet but the doomed aircraft was cruising at 33,000 feet, still within range of sophisticated ground-to-air weaponry, when it was hit. Direct your energy to finding out the real culprits who shot down a civilian airplane that was flying in a permitted airspace. theguardian/world/2014/jul/17/malaysia-airlines-mh17-flying-just-above-restricted-airspace
