Malaysian airliner downed in Ukraine war zone, 295 dead

WTF?

(Reuters) - A Malaysian airliner was brought down in eastern Ukraine on Thursday, killing all 295 people aboard and sharply raising the stakes in a conflict between Kiev and pro-Moscow rebels that has set Russia and the West at daggers drawn.

As the United States said the Malaysia Airlines Boeing 777 from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur was "blown out of the sky", probably by a ground-launched missile, Ukraine and Russia traded accusations of blame, cranking up global pressure for a way out of a bloody local conflict that risks fueling a new Cold War

Subject beaten to death. Ukraine rebels...did what rebels do...head up their ass...room for Vlad to claim it's not his fault and for Obabble to wash his hands and ask people to be more careful in the future.

 

[deltex1]

Obabble will ask Vlad why he cannot control his borders...

Ukraine Releases YouTube Clip "Proving" Rebels Shot Down Malaysian Flight MH-17

Almost exactly one year ago, the world was nearly brought to the verge of a global war by proxy involving the US and Russia (and Europe and China) over a staged, false flag YouTube clip "proving" the Assad regime had used toxic gas (gas that was made in Britain as it was later revealed) to kill several hundred civilians in the country's ongoing war against what subsequently turned out to be al-Qaeda funded and trained rebels (and which now are fighting across the border with another former US-puppet state, Iraq). Luckily, back then an all out confrontation was averted in the last minute over what was ultimately nothing but a gambit by Qatar to have its gas pipeline enter Europe and leave Gazprom in the cold (literally and metaphorically).

A year later, it is deja vu all over again, when the same energy and geopolitical tensions (Europe, natural gas, etc) are once again at the frontline, and while the theater of combat may be different, the same key players - Russia and the US - are once again behind the proxy conflict in Ukraine, and where Gazprom is once again the fulcrum party. The only missing link was a YouTube clip which would bring the world to the edge of war again.

Moments ago Ukraine released what may be just that missing "YouTube" link, when it unveiled a 2:23 minute video supposedly proving that "militants of "Bes" group shot down with a Russian anti-aircraft missile a Malaysian Airlines Boeing 777 passenger jet heading from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur."

And yet, something here smells very fishy...

First, the Russian version of the clip which was released in parallel, and shown below, there is a major discrepancy in the time stamp, with the English-dubbed version showing the conversation between Major and Grek taking place at 5:11 pm and 5:32 pm, while the original one has it at 4:33 pm, 5:14 pm and 5:32 pm.

Obama has warned Russia not to tamper with the crash evidence.

I am certain Putin is shaking in his boots as we speak.

This is a little off topic but did anyone catch this MSNBC exclusive did no one think to vet this guy before putting him on the air?

Too early for anything accurate. This CBS station is quoting 23 Americans. I've seen 24 quoted in other stories.

To be fair.. You would have to think families perhaps here in the US would be calling the networks. Plus, they have scanned copies of everyone's passport. How hard can it be?
