MH17 and Russian incompetence


A few years ago, after the destruction of MH17, I made a post on my blog. My first post was in 2014 and I posted an update the following year.  But one question remained to me.  How could the operators mistake a civilian airliner for a military plane?  Civilian airliners have been destroyed before, and example being Iran Air 655 when a very stupid decision made in the heat of battle, but when it came to MH17, no battle was taking place. 
 
The answer appears to be incompetence. We have seen during Putins War that too many Russian troops have been poorly equipped and badly trained.  We can only imagine if the crew and passengers would be alive if the crew had been properly trained.
