CNN is saying that "The White House is pressuring the Rebels for access to the Crash Site." What leverage does the White House have? This is in Rebel-Controlled territory, with the Ukrainian Army in the area falling apart.

I expect the Rebels will ask the Russians to be the Primary here, and Ukraine will scream about it.

Russians are the primary aggressors.

And of course, you do know the rebels are Russian, right?

This is part of a sovereign country...Ukraine. The rebels are criminals who are killing people with blessing of Putin in order to overthrow a legitimate government.

298 civilians killed doesn’t make you skip a beat of antagonism against Ukrainians?

When Kiev made a big deal over the Azov Battalion being sent East it was a pretty good indication their other troops were either in trouble or needed someone at their backs in order to keep them in line.

Any links to the Ukrainian Army in the area being in trouble and falling apart?

Since when do you let the killers choose who will be in charge of the investigation???

Here's a preview of the meeting, to include much "harrumphing":

Apparently a bunch of AIDS scientists and delegates were on-board and a spokesperson for WHO, headed to a conference in Australia. In other words the whole world is probably going to be angry about this.
