A Netherlands-led team of self-appointed prosecutors gathering information on the downing of Malaysian Airlines Flight MH17 today reported that they have “conclusive evidence” that the missile was fired by a Russian-made Buk 9M38 missile system, and from a village believed to be under the control of Eastern Ukrainian rebels at the time.
Exactly what this ultimately means isn’t totally clear, in as much as Russia makes the Buk missiles so obviously any Buk missile originally came from Russia. Ukraine’s Foreign Ministry, however, insisted that this report meant that Russia was 100% directly responsible for the attack.
Yet Russia says they have no evidence any Buk missiles crossed into Ukraine from Russia during the rebellion. This might suggest that the missiles were part of Ukraine’s own substantial arsenal of the weapons, left over from the Soviet era.
Russian officials also threw doubt on the findings’ objectivity, noting that the “evidence” overwhelmingly was secret claims from Ukrainian spy agencies and things the prosecutors found on the Internet. They claimed the conclusions were largely arbitrary, and designed to assign blame
As if to underscore Russia’s complaints, the prosecutors also released the names of a pair of “Russian-speaking men” during the assessment, while conceding that they have “no evidence” that the two are related at all to MH17. They appear thus to be bringing this up apropos of nothing, and without noting that Russian is the primary language spoken in eastern Ukraine.
But of course. What else would they conclude. Initially they were fairly cautious and now they come out with this stuff straight out of those junk new age media outlets. $omeone clearly got to the inve$tigator$.
All the Nato countries are agreeing with them. That’s the reason why Trump only thinks he will dick around with dismantling Nato or making the other countries pay. Sad that all the dogs heard that whistle and coudn’t figure out that he’s a snake oil salesman.
As always you make no sense.
“A Netherlands-led team of self-appointed prosecutors”
And not to mention: joining forces with Ukrainian investigators, Ukrainian secret service and Ukrainian military from the get-go, excluding any direct Russian cooperation beyond letting them mailing in their assigned home work. A done deal!
Think about it: a murder case is being assigned to a pair of lead detectives: one is the grief stricken parent of the victim and the other detective is one of the two prime suspects who was hanging around at the crime scene for quite a lot and possesses a true arsenal of weapons similar to the suspected murder weapon. But he happens to be a “friend of the family” so lets team up because the rich uncle from the States who owns most of the police anyway has said he already knows everything and directs the moves from behind the scenes.
A dream team to know the outcome of any inquiry in advance, no matter the technical expertise. And we know what “overwhelming evidence” means since the uncovering of “WMD” in Iraq or the “genocide” in former Yugoslavia. Group think always trumps any technical and journalistic expose but we’re all in denial as any other approach would threaten the unity of the Family.
I went to the lying times and wapoo websites,they obviously don’t think this too credible either,as they aren’t top stories as they would be from the ziomonsters if verifiable,or even somewhat true.
More election propaganda to hurt Trump who wants better relations with Russia.
The big story today is Russian evil in Syria.
Little talk of our actual evil,as the Somalian and Afghan murders weren’t even cited.
A world of shite,brought to US by the duopoly of rethug demoncrat scum for zion.
To hurt Trump’s chances? Interesting theory but I don’t think so. But at least you’ve got it right on how the demonization of Putin will play well with the huge majority of the American people.
Look pal, Trump isn’t antiwar, he’s only using dog whistling to try to convince a few people that he is. He’s already told you that he’s going to make America great again. Don’t you understand how he’s going to do that, even though he doesn’t know himself.
That huge military and all those bombs aren’t just to look at pal! How else could he make America great? Asking China nicely to not be so competitive and stop building their stuff cheaper than Americans can build it? Yeah, that’ll work fine!
Don, Trump has told us all that he’s going to make America great again .. but, he’s going to do so by rebuilding its crumbling infrastructure. What you haven’t realized is, there isn’t enough money available for both rebuilding crumbling infrastructure and expanding military expenditures.
On several occasions, Trump has pledged to rebuild our crumbling infrastructures, and it’ll take over a billion dollars to do this. He’s also pledged to bring high-paying jobs back and reduce debilitating taxes on both small and large businesses, as well as individuals and couples earning $25,000 or less and $50,000 or less, respectively.
As far as the military’s concerned, Trump said he would improve it by instilling better discipline and training. Under Obama, these two items were neglected, and the war games did nothing to instill proper discipline and training that’s needed in battle. He never endorsed the aggressive wars that have been (and still are) raging across much of the world .. and that includes the 2003 illegal invasion of Iraq. Compared to Hillary Clinton, Trump’s a peacemaker. The Hildebeast wants aggressive wars of conquest; whereas, the only war(s) Trump supports are only those that rid the world of Islamic State and other like-minded terrorists, and he wouldn’t deliberately target civilians, either, as both W and O have done.
It seems to be working! So who wants a real war with Russia? There’s no way Russia could retaliate right. American arrogance is backed by American might! Right?
I just can’t wait until Trump sends in 100,000 troops to make America great again in Syria. And then Iran.
