The separitists are essentially serving as a proxy fighting for the Russians in the Ukraine. What's hard to figure out about that? I never suggested the Russians had someone else shoot an airliner down for them.
Fair enough. But there are many here (and in other threads at the Fire of late) suggesting blame on the part of the Russians.
There has been a movement afoot for a few years now to foment a return to a Cold War status between the United States and Russia (serving to benefit the Military Industrial Complex Ike somberly warned us about so many years ago). It's safe to assume, in my judgment, that most of the misinformation directed at us regarding this event is, and will continue to be, designed with this end in mind.
