The black box will be in Moscow by noon!
The Russian-backed separatists are in control of that area. It's just as impossible to secure as an ISIS-controlled area of Iraq or Syria would be.
This is the kind of world we live in. Technologically advanced yet still barbaric.
One American was killed, Obama confirmed it.
The loss is immeasurable. These are people who spent their lives helping others.

The others who died lives are just as important. One life is not worth more than another. To try and say one loss is more than another is wrong. Yes they helped others but the lives of the others who died are just as important to their friends and family.
Who said they weren't just as important?
The entire history of literature and drama teaches us that sympathy for the largest portion of humanity is best served by telling the stories of individuals.
By telling Anne Frank's story, we do not say that Anne Frank is "more important" than every other victim of the Holocaust. Rather, we humanize all of them by telling the story of one.
"Tell my story"--it's the greatest gift we can give to those who have passed.

"The cure for AIDS may have been on that plane."
This truly was an unfortunate situation. Hundreds of people lost their lives and the world also lost some hope for the future of medicine.

"To try and say one loss is more than another is wrong."
Thank goodness every thinking person knows no one on this thread has said any such thing.
Now the rebels have taken the bodies and have them in refrigerated rail cars.
When will the world community get off its asses and come down hard on Russia Withdrawing our ambassador "for consultations"might be a start. Sanctions with teeth might be another
Sadly it appears to be all about the Benjamin's as always
It bears repeating:
Thank goodness every thinking person knows no one on this thread has said any such thing.
