The local animals are impeding the crash investigation.
Simple solution - we have poison gas - cleanse the area, then go in.
From what I see on TV, no great losses will occur.

Just heard on radio that family members are getting calls that credit cards purloined from the crash are being used all over the world

I'm guessing that some of those pro-Russian rebels might have some connections with the Russian Mafia.

Can anyone point to anything he did or said today that indicated any real concern about those events or their possible impact on this country? Or their impact on our allies? Let alone anything that indicates leadership of this country? I won't bother discussing the traditional role of the President of the US as the leader of the free world. Obama abdicated that position in 2009.
Given those two events today, can anyone honestly name one other president in living memory that would be in NYC tonight glad-handing and back-slapping at fund raisers? Any other president I have seen would be in the White House situation room right now, being kept current on developments and discussing contingency plans with policy and military advisers and with NATO partners.

How? Do you know the card numbers and info on your families cards? I would think this would be the last thing on their minds

Some lost multiple family members. Imagine that might have been the furthest thing from their minds.

I guess so, but after a week, someone needs to start picking up the pieces. I say that from experience. I agree that it's more difficult for multiple deaths in one family.

Saw yesterday where Malaysian Airlines started a new route yesterday from the UK to Malaysia away from the Ukraine zone, but directly instead over Syria. The airline says this is not a restricted zone. Neither was the war zone over the Ukraine. How dumb does it get?

Separatists shot down two Ukrainian fighter jets in the same eastern region where Malaysian Air Flight MH17 was destroyed, the government said.

How to secure the area:
1. Drones
2. WMD - GAS.
Sanitize the region.
And, long term, we must kill Putin.
Whatever it takes.

Why journalists should know how to read and write English.
When the plane carrying bodies from the shot-down plane landed in the Netherlands, the AP story carried the headline:
Quote:
BREAKING: Dutch military plane carrying bodies from Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 crash lands in Eindhoven.—
The Associated Press (@AP) July 23, 2014
|
Many other news sources grabbed the headline and reported that the plane carrying the bodies had crash landed.
Oops. Never mind.

The best and the brightest are not going into journalism anymore.
