>Aren't they crimes?

Absolutely and it's unlikely that those incidents resulted in sanctions against those countries.

It just highlights how hypercritical the US, Ukraine and the rest of the international community are.

All three of these states commit crimes - none of them should be excused.



Should we consider them all the "crimes against humanity"? Is this one:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cavalese_cable_car_disaster_(19...

"on February 3, 1998, near the Italian town of Cavalese, a ski resort in the Dolomites" "Twenty people died when a United States Marine Corps EA-6B Prowler aircraft cut a cable supporting a gondola of an aerial tramway." "the subsequent acquittal of the pilots, strained relations between the United States and Italy."

Or is this "just a human error"? Where to draw the line?


The US never denied that it had shot down the Iranian 737. It paid compensation to the families of victims. Which is the third state you have in mind?


So by that logic if Russia admits supplying arms to rebels it's ok?

The three states are US, Ukraine and Russia.


to continue with the example above - would also mean that Russia engage in some sort of compensation with the victims
