Hmmm... This doesn't fit in with the pre-approved narrative we have been hearing all day.

Somebody is pushing for military involvement.

An AK-47 barrel at the base of your skull will do that.

Sounds like the black boxes are already in the hands of investigators too.

Depends on what the meaning of "hell," is.

This crash stinks so bad it would take Houdini to unwrap all the tangled up agendas. NONE of it adds up, and no one having any voice in it agrees with any other voice.

I smell a mischief of rats (look it up).

‘none of it adds up’...just like anything even remotely attached to the Obama pestilency.

I think that now that OTHERS are talking, instead of the Obama Administration, we may start getting to the TRUTH about what happened.

Crazed drunken Russians with guns and no one to stop them. What else would the Dutch scientists say?

The forensics team should be glad they didn’t take them for ransom, like they had with the OSCE for a month.

That’s what I said to my friend, wouldn’t it be crazy if they did that. They just killed 300 civilians, let the bodies to decompose for 3 days, didn’t give the blackboxes until now, hindered the recovery and investigation. Why not hold the Dutch team for ransom and go for total loco?

Not sure why you’re giving separatists the credit. Ukrainian ministry and the locals provide the workers, separatists just stand outside with guns monitoring what goes out

The "they" he was referring to were the emergency workers sent in by Kiev -- not the gun-toting looters sent in by Borodai.

“The “they” he was referring to were the emergency workers sent in by Kiev — not the gun-toting looters sent in by Borodai.”

And exactly HOW do you know that? It isn’t stated that way in the article.

It’s times like these that make me a cynic.

Obama is like a thin plastic bag of dog waste. The flies circle.

"Dutch forensic team 'impressed' by work at MH17 crash site"

How many of his team went in and how many came back out?

Yes it is.

When talking about the “rebels” he says this: “Pro-Russian rebels have allowed bodies from the Malaysia Airlines plane crash to be taken to the city of Kharkiv”.

He didn’t say that “allowing” the bodies to be moved was impressive.

The “they” is the forensic team that he’s impressed with because of the horrible conditions they have to work under.
