A series of disturbing new allegations emerged today that added further weight to claims pro-Russian rebels looted the MH17 crash scene to sabotage the investigation and cash in on the disaster.
In the first, desperate relatives revealed how they had called the mobile phones of their loves ones - only for them to be answered by strangers with 'eastern European-sounding voices'....
New evidence has also emerged that the rebels allegedly planned to sabotage the investigation by contaminating the site with parts from other planes....
Meanwhile, an alleged decree by rebel commander Igor Strelkov appears to admit that the bodies of dead passengers were looted by pro-Russian rebels.
Strelkov is alleged by Kiev to be a serving colonel in Russia's GRU military intelligence....
The order says that jewellery, watches and other valuables taken from bodies must be handed in to the 'defence fund' of the self-proclaimed Donetsk People's Republic by 8pm on Wednesday 23 July....
Rather than ordering any looted possessions to be returned to the families, it demands they are taken to Strelkov's headquarters so they can be used to fund the insurgency campaign he is conducting.
The text of order number 432, pictured here, says in Russian:
'To all detachments of Donetsk People's Republic army, to soldiers and commanders who from 18 to 21 July 2014 in the area where the Boeing 777 of Malaysian airlines crashed and who possess personal belongings related to this airplane.
'Before 8 pm on 23 July 2014 you must give these things away to the headquarters of DPR army. Valuable items (watches, earrings, lockets and other jewellery) must be sent to the DPR Defence Fund.'
It is signed by rebel army commander Colonel Igor Strelkov, and carries what appears to be an official stamp....

Wow. What a surprise. It happens everyday on the streets of most major cities here.

So you know them, huh? I don’t.
What I do know is that when people want to make a case that people are supposed to believe, they stop before getting into the weeds. What’s next? looters were using fingernail polish of the deceased?
I hate looting, but it isn’t war worthy. It can be a product of war though.
Ah, now we appear to be getting at the nut of the problem.
Well, the nut of the problem is you. Surely you can see that.
Have a nice day because you are a waste of time.
Thanks, I will. Look for me the next time you post some relativistic bullcrap.
Done been there.
What time is it over there in Donetsk???
Is it past 8PM yet???
Pictures of missile damage to MH17:
Relativistic bullcrap?
My atheist physicist neighbor
says that is the God particle.
“The rebels quickly had control of this site. I wonder who was doing the looting? As if it wasn’t obvious.”
They lost a golden opportunity to gain legitimacy in the eyes of the rest of the world, but returning the bodies and all property found.
But respect for private property is the last thing that Pro-Putin irregulars think of.
Now they have cemented their image as thugs.
Yesterday, 200 bodies were released by the rebels and taken by train to the Ukrainian government-controlled city of Kharkiv, raising questions about the condition of the remaining 98.
Rebel commanders claimed the makeshift morgue contained 282 bodies and 87 body parts from an additional 16 people.
This would have accounted for all of the passengers killed when the Boeing 777 was shot down by an anti-aircraft missile, however, after carrying out a body count last night, Dutch forensic experts found the number to be ‘significantly less’.
The head of the Dutch team leading the investigation, Jain Tuinder, said he estimated just 200 bodies had arrived in Kharkiv as well as a number of unidentified body parts.
Dutch air safety officials leading the investigation into the disaster also said today that they still had not got safe access to the crash site in eastern Ukraine.
I agree. Furthermore, this was a CYA effort from the get-go.
There was a day when immigrants coming to America came here on their own, ready to work hard for the OPPORTUNITY to achieve the American Dream.
Now they come as OPPORTUNISTS to live off the taxpayers at the invitation of the American Government.
My what a slide.
Wait till a Putinista whines about it.
Are you bored?
Bored, no. Amused, yes.
So am I. You are always amusing.
