His mouth earned him his first billion USD. Maybe it would earn him a second, who knows.

That article came out in june and Bellingcat is still using the same method and making the same claims. The media likes them because they appear to offer solid "proof".

I seem to recall a scene where an some officer is sitting behind a desk and some other are sitting infront of the desk and I seem to recall how they talked about having shot down a transporter plan. This was shown on Danish, Swedish and on German TV days after the MH317 was shot down. So this Facebook thing must be something that came after. Markus |

Of course this will be the Ukrainians making up an interception to point the finger at the rebels for their own dastardly deed. Where did the fanboys get their information? Russian veto in UN Security Council = No interference? Stories about Ukrainian aircraft shooting down the plane = No interference? Etc. Etc. Quack quack...

So what do we really know ? Markus |

So Igor the "defence minister" creates "rumors" on social media then tries to delete them? Quote:
Your use of "we" in this thread shows a strong identification with the Russian Government. Last edited by Frömmler Vogel; 10-15-15 at 12:53 AM. |

What's wrong with Igor's identification? ;-) Since we live in Russia should we identificate ourselves with some other country?

I hardly have a right to comment this question 'cause I didn't go vote during either Presidential or Duma elections Which I must admit now was absolutely wrong on my side. 'Cause if I did go , it would have given me a full right to say "WE" speaking of RF government decisions.
Nevertheless I say "WE" too - consider this as an emotional movement ;-) On the veto - can't see any difference in your article with what Igor have said - we vetoed a tribunal that was to have place B e f o r e an investigation results.

The social media account allegedly used by Strelkov was actually a fan group account, not used by the Strelkov (aka Girkin) himself. The only official and confirmed internet presense Strelkov (aka Girkin) ever had was on a certain internet forum.
Regarding veto - as I have said, we have vetoed the attempt to pass tribunal and thus prosecution before the investigation results were in. If anything western attempts to pass such prosecution before the results of investigation were in, bypassing the normal and due procedure and going straight to trial are undermining the rule of law in Europe. As to "we" I have never hidden my affiliation to the existing Russian elites.

At this time it suits the current Ukrainian government to find anything it can fire back at Russia. I'm not saying they (Ukrainians) shot MH17 down.
What I am saying though is that the Ukrainian defense minister has repeatedly said there are thousands of Russian troops in eastern Ukraine, but apart from some "geolocated" pictures on bellingcat we have yet to see definitive proof. Again I'm not denying the presence of Russian forces of some kind in the Donbass region just not the numbers claimed by Western and Ukrainian sources. |

According to RT the missile came from the backyard of the presidential palace in Kiev and according to Fox news the missiles was shoulder fired from the roof of the Kremlin by Putin himself.

Interestingly, from what I have heard, Ukrainian media has altered the translation of the Dutch conference. The altered translation explicitely allocated the responsibility for the incident onto the separatists.
