I understand that Cubana, the Cuban flag carrier, has a habit of
straying over restricted U.S. airspace.  Maybe we oughta shoot down
a couple of those bastards.

Yeah, I know the Koreans were in the wrong, but shooting down
commercial aircraft is going a bit far, don't you think?  

Let me guess!  The Soviets were convinced that the 747 had people
painted on the windows and was really loaded with thermonuclear
weapons, right?
