Only one small problem, Putin has yet to be proved guilty.

Personally I think he was involved even if only as the knowing supplier but on the face of it the Ukraine gov’t has more to gain from such an act. As the lawyers say “Cui bono?”

It was a darn accident. If someone backs into your car at the grocery store parking lot, you don't need to ask cui bono? Jeepers.

‘Only one small problem, Putin has yet to be proved guilty.’

If he was not involved in the shoot down itself, he certainly is the one that made it possible. When you give, or even loan, that kind & level of missile equipment to a bunch of drunken, undisciplined ‘rebels’ you are responsible for the uses they put it to.
