@soulecho1 Awright awright

@unab84 Guess what? what u just said is very similar to what I was discussing in the initial comment I was jumped on for. I questioned it 2. Part of my point was, under international and aerial engagement rules aircraft can't enter another countries airspace and shoot down unarmed aircraft without a war declared. It doesn't matter if it's a spyplane or if UN PEACEKEEPING troops are there (even russian ones). These are facts. I ob cant speak for the russians, maybe this video is not even true..

@unab84 as for my post not making sense, sorry but its in plain english. I understand english may not be your 1st language but u should understand the full context of things u b4 u comment on. Also,I was not aware there is a time limit on posting responses? Yes, i did take some time in between them yesterday as i walked away to do something else mid post. So what? its wrong to formulate a proper argument when attacked? I think you are making this statement to try avoid the fact u have no reply

[soulecho1]

@unab84 well ur pretty arrogant and stupid 2 get involved in an argument without knowing what it is about, especially when part of the argument is about 'lebron' doing the exact same thing. As for my attitude, yes I admit I am quite aggressive. Frankly I think i have a right to be when some troll takes 1 word out of an obvious and innocent conversation thread and uses it to be a dick. I did not begin the aggression. By your definition of you not liking 'attitudes' u should have argued with him.

@soulecho1 In any case, what do you think the Russians were doing? Controlling Georgian airspace? If so why did they shoot down this plane in particular?

The UAV was spying on something its kind of obvious ; and ''on their territory'' can mean ''right on the border looking on the other side''.
