Separate Malaysian Airline Crashes Ukraine

This video claims to be a rebel held SA11, operating in that area.
It should be noted, the film was put up after the crash, and the uploader has a bias.
That doesn't mean it isn't accurate, just there are questions as to that accuracy.

US citizens on board and so that means---military is packing its bags?

Diplomacy---what's left of the military---guess they will find some way to do what has to be done.

Putin--A war with Russia---and allies. Those who can learn nothing from history are doomed to repeat it.
 
So, where are these Russian separatists getting these sophisticated military missiles? Russian launchers had been spotted in the area.

Putin's gang.

The problem is that the SA-11 is the technology that both sides would use. I am not separating Russia and the Russian backed separatists - they are the same group. Neither side has anything to gain by the attack really.

The idea that the Russian backed rebels thought they were firing on Ukrainian military jets makes the most sense - but I really have no idea what happened.

Who said that, a post on a forum?

BBC News - Malaysia jet crashes in east Ukraine conflict zone

He said of the passengers that have been identified there were:

154 Dutch nationals, 27 Australians, 23 Malaysians, 11 Indonesians
Six Britons, four Germans, four Belgians, three from the Philippines and one Canadian
All 15 of the crew were Malaysian

NEVER believe what anyone says unless they can back it up.
Sometimes it's deliberate bullshit, sometimes they just don't have a clue.
 
Pretty sure you can get a Buk Surface to Air Missile Launcher on eBay

Might have to pay extra to have it shipped to the Ukraine.

But it's readily available, right?

It's not like its sophisticated Russian hardware or anything
 
Pro russian group stated they shot down a Ukraine military plane, same time this went down, online.

Okay there is no way that a separatist group can have that type of technology on their own. Russia can't play stupid anymore, they are helping the rebels.

Yes "Pooty Poot" isn't the nice guy the extreme right in the US adores.
 
However, other reports say there were Americans on board.

Malaysian Airlines MH17 Passenger List: Names Of 15 Crew Members Released By Malaysia Media

According to Gorter, citizens from the following countries were also on board: 27 from Australia, 11 from Indonesia, six from Great Britain, four from France, four from Germany, four from Belgium, three from the Philippines and one from Canada. The nationalities of an additional 47 passengers were not disclosed, although other reports said there were 23 U.S. citizens aboard.

At this point, it's just "other reports".

Putin had to clear the shoot down with Obama

Looks like Tea Party Putin doesn't give a flying fuck who he pisses off.

:mad:

Up until today Obama was Putin's boy and Putin was the man who controlled everything. Now Putin is Obama's boy and Obama is in control. Are you desperate, confused or both.
 
Had to be Russia that did the deed. Why?

Cash and/or power.

There's way too much cash to be gained by whoever can prove the other side did it.

If Russia is guilty/blamed, they're fucked in a thousand ways, much to do with gas supplies to Europe; if Ukraine is guilty/blamed, the Ukrainian support base is buggered, much to Russia's delight..
Lots of people have a dog in this race.
 
Separatists don't have the military hardware to pull this off. Only the Russian and Ukrainian Militaries do.

In situations like this, it is prudent to ask, "cui bono, who benefits?".

Russia has no reason to target civilian aircraft, and no benefits would come from such an attack. Where as an event like this benefits the Ukrainian Government greatly, they may now get the NATO/UN intervention they have wanted for months to finally quell the separatists in the East and bring Donetsk and Luhansk under their control.
Actually the separatists have been showing off their buk missile system all week, and bragged about taking down their third plane today, but when they found out it was a commercial airliner, pulled back that statement.

IF that is true, and can be proven, Putin is in a world of hurt.

Pooty poot was Bush's nickname for Putin, G.W. BUSH said he "looked into his soul". And we see where that has led.
 
Something disturbs me about this story. I have read some reports that indicate the plane disappeared from radar after passing over the city of Kremenchuk. Yet the plane crashed west of Donetsk. I have taken that route by motorcycle and car. It is about a 300 mile trip if I remember right. Seems like a long way for a plane to travel after being hit by a missile. And Kremenchuk is on the Dnieper, Russian speaking city, so maybe considered eastern region, but more in the center of Ukraine.
