You see negligence of that magnitude as just an accident? And if so, accidents of that magnitude are ok but suitcase bombings aren’t?

- echoangle 3y agoIt’s not ok, but surely it is much less bad to be negligent than to do something on purpose, right?

The level of aggression shown by that captain, the violations of territorial waters ans deviations from standard practice. He attacked everything that moved and the climate in which his behaviour was tolerated is also a factor. He wanted to shoot a plane down. His colleagues had given him a nickname and his superiors had concerns about the recklessness. The final settlements reflects the indefensible behaviour.
