I find it silly how they disrupt the traffic of thousands of people just because of dead bodies.

Well I'm glad then that the majority of our population completely disagrees with you. It's about showing respect to the innocent victims of a war crime, and they're finally being brought home in the best possible way we could imagine. Today they did exactly the same, 74 cars transported 74 bodies with full police escort and highways closed off. The same will happen tomorrow, and if it's needed we'll do it again on Saturday. If we had to we would've shut down our entire economy for a day, or for four days. That's how much this disaster has meant to the Dutch population.

As of now the Dutch 11th mobile brigade has all leaves cancelled and soldiers are ordered to muster at the barracks. The police are preparing to send officers as well. This weekend troops will be sent to secure the crash site and patrol the surrounding area.

Our country might be small, but we will never stand for this.

Hopefully you will not mind me correcting you, with the plane being Sikorsky "Russky Vityaz". Related, inspection of the plane by HIM Nicholas II.

No, that is ok. I was quoting the caption of the site the picture was hosted on. Obviously it is wrong. A Wikipedia article considers the 3 men inside to be Sikorsky, Genner and Kaulbars.




British Mark tanks. I think they're type I, but I didn't verify that.

Cypriot Greeks:
A friend talks bitterly, But a friend speaks the truth..... Now our JETS SPEAK BITTERLY.
Know that our goal is the safeguard of a brotherly living of the Turkish and Greek communities through the means of peace and serenity.....

CAR Anti-Balaka militiamen.  The anti-balaka (anti-machete) are militias composed of animists or Christians for defense against the Seleka.

I'm not sure if this Su-27 clipped a garbage truck on it's last flight.
