You aren't understanding something: The "separatists" already admitted that they were shooting "exactly in this area," that the Buks are theirs (though they deny it now), and also, it's just plain stupid to claim that the photographed Buks in "exactly this area" are Ukrainian when the place is run by Russkies.
Ukraine accidentally shot down a passenger plane in 2001.
And like us, they also admitted the mistake. The Russkies are blaming it on Ukraine and on secret NATO plots after their guys looted the corpses, and left them rotting for 3 days, to show us all how humane they really are.
Wouldn’t it have been common sense not to overfly a warzone, a tiny part of Ukraine, which is easily avoided?
It was 10KM up in the sky, about double the range of MANPADs and anything else they ordinarily had. The only way they'd be shot down is if a state government, with trained officers, fired on it, which is exactly what happened.
The article claims to be a comprehensive overview of the facts.
It should include the facts I mentioned, as well as the ones you have mentioned.
I certainly agree that your theory is more likely.
That doesn’t justify suppressing facts outside the scope of the most likely theory.
If there are reasons for discounting facts, mention it so your readers can see and decide for themselves, but don’t neglect the facts altogether.
