Denis Mokrushin — Almaz-Antey publishes MH17 investigation results


The manufacturer of BUK missiles presents the results of its inquiry. An older BUK not in possession of the Russian Federation but in the arsenal of the Ukrainian Armed Forces and in the area of the launch. Who controlled the area of the launch is in dispute.

Perhaps true but it will not be taken seriously because it's coming from Russia. People will think "of course the Russians will say that Russians didn't do it."

But note that the Russians have released at least some of their information on MH17 while all we get from DC is disinformation and saber rattling.

FYI the "Bellingcat" source who claimed to "prove" that Russia shot MH17 has been in the news again for his sloppy reporting.

Any media who further quote "analysis" by the "experts" Higgins and Bellingcat should be regarded as propaganda outlet and not as a serious source of news.

Bellingcat reeks of CIA.

Folks.

The company merely gave a detailed analysis of why it could not have been a Russian-fired BUK, as the up-dated models would not be consistent with the information they have from the site/wreckage.

They did NOT say a BUK was definitely used - they don't have all the information.

Meanwhile, there is a witness being elaborately ignored by the MSM. Wonder why?

Attack the man, when you can't attack his facts. RT and other Russian outlets are out with hardcore ad-hominem pieces. The data itself is pretty hard to dispute, and no one has argued with the basic facts of who the soldiers were, where they were fighting, from where they were based, which units and weapons they were controlling that Higgins pointed out. Most of the criticism is vague stuff like Dan Lynch pointed out, that is baseless claims.

It doesn't really matter anymore, the evidence of Russian troops and weapons operating in Ukraine is so completely overwhelming, you have to be either not watching or completely following Russian media and discount all other reports in the world. Even Xinhua is pointing out some of the incidents. The US and Europe now have troops in the Ukraine and you think Putin doesn't? Really? No special forces... please don't delude yourself. Putin has already admitted as much when he expounded on how Russia views Eastern Ukraine as part of Russia that should never have been "given" to Ukraine. He says Russia needs a buffer against NATO and that it is an existential necessity for Russia. The US and Europe may complain about the policy, but they aren't going to stop Russia either, they don't have the military capacity to stop Russia. The blogosphere will of course continue to beat the dead horse but this a conflict between Russia and the West (Merkel/Obama) and both are fully engaged in the conflict. If you follow both sides, they both have put an end to the pretense of the other side that they aren't involved and it is merely an internal conflict within Ukraine.

This is s proxy war between the US and Russia. Of course both the US and Russia are sending weapons covertly.

The not so hidden agenda of the US to draw Russia into a war in the West so it cannot defend itself from US operations in the West to neutralize Russia and China in Eurasia, with the US finishing off China directly in the Pacific.

Here's a summary of the strategy
