A missile launcher allegedly used to destroy Flight MH17 has been smuggled across the Ukrainian border into Russia to cover up its role in the strike, Ukraine’s interior minister claimed Friday.

Amid mounting evidence that Russian-backed separatists were behind the disaster, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations said “technical assistance” from Russia could not be ruled out.

In a pointed reference to Moscow, Samantha Power added that the perpetrators should not be “sheltered” by any UN member state.

We cannot rule out technical assistance from the Russians. The perpetrators must be brought to justice, they must not be sheltered by any member state of the United Nations.”

‘The fighters have allowed Emergencies Ministry workers in there, but they do not allow them to take anything from the area. The fighters are taking away all that has been found.’

The rebels have also been accused of looting the corpses of the dead and rifling through their luggage, also by the Ukrainian government.

Anton Gerashchenko, an adviser to the Kiev government, said: ‘I have received information that terrorist death-hunters were collecting not only cash and jewelery of the crashed Boeing dead passengers but also the credit cards of the victims.

‘Currently, they might as well try to use them in Ukraine or pass them on to Russia.

So it appears that the Ukrainian government emergency corps is doing the hard work of bagging the corpses while the Russian-backed rebels are doing what they are famous for —looting them.

Samatha Powers? You all remember her, she’s the one who authored the “responsibilty to protect act” with her buddy Larry Summers. These two clowns are both another couple of Obama criminal friends in just the right places. She is a worse propoganda tool than even the video toting Susan Rice. Ignore these people at every level.
