    Be prepared to hear an hour about Afghanistan and the last 2 minutes about flight 007.
    Misleading title.

      Explain the reasoning of it being misleading. If you're here to complain then make a video about your reasoning or give solutions. Stop adding to the problem. I don't see anything wrong here. I know a lot about history but I watch these videos often and do my own research. You don't have to watch these videos but if you criticize something you best come out with a reason as to why. Otherwise you're not going to be heard. You'll only be someone who just complains about something over Nothing. There's plenty of other videos to watch in the same manner. So feel free to complain some more or at the very least entertain us as to a solution and link to what the title should be.

    It seems that activity and success are related. Successful individuals never give up. They make mistakes, but they keep trying. As the severity of the economic situation grows, we genuinely need a variety of revenue streams. There are many opportunities in the stock markets and the area of blockchain technology to make a good career with the right abilities and understanding of how the market works.

      In every way, what you said is true. With the right information and expert instruction, anyone may become enormously wealthy through the stock and virtual currency markets. Investors shouldn't simply observe the markets decline during periods of extraordinarily high market volatility. Working with a knowledgeable instructor will greatly increase the size of your portfolio. When it comes to accessibility and in-depth knowledge of the many financial business sectors, Andrew Glenn Adams has always been the financial analyst to turn to.

    I remember one of Gaddafi's agents did this exact same thing to a plane over Scotland, but he was from the Arab World so that means he was flawless and any evil thing he did was "muh Western propaganda".

    Being born in 1959 I remember well the fear that we all lived with during the Cold War - even in Australia. It has made me a fatalist I'm afraid. If anything happens to annihilate the world, I do not want to survive it. Life would never be the same again, and I can't imagine living my life entirely underground in a shelter. No thanks. My only wish would be that the end would be quick.

    My grandmother was supposed to be on that flight. My mom was the only one available to drive her to the airport, but she had a terrible feeling about it and refused. The whole family was angry. My grandfather and mother worked at the same company, and on that day all the TVs in the workplace were talking about this. My grandfather ran up to my mom and his hands were shaking uncontrollably. I don't believe in psychics or anything but I've never been able to explain that to myself.

      My point guys is that it's not just a Soviet Union thing. USA has done something like it too.
      It's better to just think of it as an unfortunate mistake than intentional or so ok?
      Heck a better thing to say is why is it flying/travelling threw a no fly/etc zone. That is what I'd said about the Malaysia Air incident in 2014 for example.

      The so called "West"? Why? It is not that West is better, with what they have been doing in Africa (even now with Blackwater mercenaries ir simply corporate interests), or South America - in the name of profit, money and the current/next year stock market prices. Long ago, aven Smedley Butler was vocal about it, in his speech in congress or his short "book". And not much has changed at the end.
      China? Pretty much the same with their own geo-political approach.
      And is not like West has a good history in any conflict, even US - and the list is long. At the end you can always start with Abeer Qassim Hamza al-Jana.

      Russia itself. Read something from "The Foundations of Geopolitics" or something written by Kissinger, or even Chomsky.
      Note: Not that Kissinger was a good guy as such, far from it - but his politics, written material, books, and ideas - shaped opinions and ideas of other powerfull people too. So was the case with Aleksandr Dugin and his influence on Putin and others (hence, the approach and geo-politics of Russia itself).
