I just heard this shocking and heartbreaking news. This is the second Malaysian airlines plane that crashed this year. This is a huge tragedy for our country and for everyone whose family was on board.
I am deeply saddened. My prayers go out to the families of MH17.

This is what proxy warfare gets us. I was working outside for the entire day and didn’t even hear about this until late last night–what a horrible thing. I’d love to think that this might make the leaders of powerful nations (like mine) think twice before showering regional despots and thuggish, penny-ante militiamen and self-styled revolutionaries and using them like pawns for their own political ends. This one should end up firmly in Putin’s lap, but he’s not the only one guilty. The US, UK, China, France, etc have all done it. My thoughts are with the bereaved, and with Malaysia, but this is a tragedy for all of us and a reminder of just how far from civilized we are.
