Not directly, obviously, any more than Reagan ordered the shootdown of Iran Air Flight 655. But in both cases the underlying wrong was escalating a conflict, putting the weapons in the area and setting rules of engagement that allowed the launching of missiles when the country was not officially at war. The incursion into Ukraine was presumably supposed to be deniable, unlike the Iraqui invasion of Kuwait. |
