She said "They were flying really low through the St Mawgan valley and around Cornwall."They're already over British soil! (Well, Cornwall anyway)
Wasn't Bears then dear. Probably something from the Classic Air Force Museum fleet out of Newquay.

The Chinese have complained about the US ELINT aircraft doing the same thing, they had a mid-air collision a few years back with a fighter sent to intercept.
Even by your standards this is a stretch; China isn't a notable foe of NATO and the south china sea isn't really their precinct, but carry on. A P3 being 'bumped' by a PLAAF fast jet isn't quite the same as the potential for a Bear to find itself wearing some poor bugger in a Piper as a bonnet mascot or colliding with a BN Islander flying to or from the Channel Islands.

Russia does it to us and it becomes provocation by a mad man Looking for war. Who are the real warmongering mad men then?
Can you see the hypocrisy?

Typical Progressive thinking, like Karl Marx himself.
At no point did you mention 'freedom' and/or 'freedom to chose'. Why is that? Why do we need to move forward in a mutually beneficial way when we're all different? Or do we all move forward in a mutually beneficial way which happens to be beneficial to your line of thinking?
Lives are being lost because, believe it or not, that is how things are decided. Someone wants something, someone doesn't want that someone to have it. They talk, it goes nowhere. They protest, it goes nowhere. They fight = decision made. Every land border you see is mostly the direct result of people dying.
Progressives live in fantasy land.

Loss of life is the only resolution to these differences?
You keep dragging those knuckles fella, it saves sweeping the cave.

My point about selective morality is beautifully made here. The USA (the main NATO member) does the same thing to China, including a collision resulting in deaths with lots of previous form for this kind of behaviour but that is acceptable.

The Chinese pilot died when the PLAAF aircraft rammed the P3 as far as I can remember, so it was self inflicted.Russia does it to us and it becomes provocation by a mad man Looking for war. Who are the real warmongering mad men then?

Edit to add; the wiki says the collision occured on the 3rd flyby by the Chinese fighter, so the pilot signed a cheque he couldn't cash. The americans perhaps should not have been there, but I don't accept they are to blame for the death of a gungho fighter pilot with more aggression than ability.
As for hypocrisy, that's in your mind and perhaps elements of the media; I don't think he is spoiling for war, he's just doing what he's spent the last decade doing in his own special way. The difference is that now there's a war going on on the EU's doorstep, an airliner has been shot down, the baltic NATO members are being subjected to maskirovka and now Vlad is playing chicken with civilian air traffic.

exactly, so working transponder wouldn't help jack sh*t thereEdit to add; the wiki says the collision occured on the 3rd flyby by the Chinese fighter, so the pilot signed a cheque he couldn't cash.

all these incidents with russian planes flying relatively close would have been the same with transponder turned on

Yes, so far the out come with and without the transponder has been the same.
If a civ aircraft hits a bear, the result will have not been the same, unless you think that civilian pilots are trying to deliberately ram bears.
I'm amazed how normal people polarise themselves to a 'side' so readily.
Neither of the powers that be on either side give a toss about normal people.
Both sides are sabre rattling to extend their own ideologies. Not 'our' ideologies, but their own and their crony friends ideologies.
The indoctrination fed to us by our dictators is clearly working pretty well. Divide and conquer working amazingly well.
I wonder if people will be so happy when they or their family are required to go give up their lives to protect one billionaires margins on oil or gas pipelines, over another billionaires.

I find the clear polarisation of your view point ironic.Neither of the powers that be on either side give a toss about normal people.
