I think you have some big issues. Clearly you aren't capable of having an honest and intellectual conversation about aviation accidents.
I made no editorial comment as to why it happened, just pointed out it did happen. Didn't even compare to the two. Nor did I try to legitimize their errors.
I was simply responding to a poster that specifically stated you don't see incidents with 777, 767, and MD-11 aircraft. The posters comment is simply untrue.
