    I guess we’ll see when more details come out. Given the growing evidence that it was an Ukrainian S-300, why would it be so far off course, and not just that, in the complete opposite direction to the approaching missiles from the east it would be trying to intercept?
    And it just so happens to hit a tractor in the middle of empty farmland. It’s almost like Ukraine would have something to gain if article 5 were triggered.

      Well, a tractor and two people. But the how is not too much of a mystery. The area is sparsely but somewhat populated. There is a small chance of mass casualties along the border, but a fairly large chance of killing someone.
