Girkin (aka Strelkov) already boasted about shooting down a Ukrainian aircraft, until they realized they had shot down the Malaysian MH17 instead. Now they’re trying to scrub the Internet to coverup their previous boasting about shooting down the aircraft.
If the Anti-Kiev forces took it out...they wouldn’t be able to scrub the net from that information.
I really don’t put all that much trust of those actually fighting in Ukraine. neither Keiv Gov. nor The Anti-Kiev forces...it’s a war and information always will be framed accordingly.... About all we can do is report from other sources as it comes in .
But this Airliner going down is an ‘International Incident’...so there will be a complete investigation if for no other reason then the families will demand it.
I understand the UN Security Council has called for special session regarding the events and the crash. Not that what they do is significant....but it does indicate this isn’t just about what Ukraine Authorities will report, or other interested parties.
