Calm down, Adolf.

I honestly believe that you and the other FR Russophobics would happily shove every living Russian, man, woman or child into ovens.

Your posted pics supposedly depict Russian troops as rapists. Do you denounce every living German as rapists, considering the rapes and murders perpetrated by German troops against Russians, Belarusians and other Slavs?

Ever hear of Stalingrad? Are you aware of the rape, genocide and other atrocities carried out by Germans AND UKRAINIAN NAZIS against the Belarusians? Entire Belarusian villages were burned with the inhabitants burned alive and raped.

But no, Germans and Ukrainians are saints, correct?

The Chinese are the most dangerous enemies of the US, besides the leftists, but you never post anything derogatory about them. That speaks volumes.

BTW, the girl with the looted mascara has an Ukrainian surname. Just saying..

Gee Whiz, too bad the EU fails to tell the whole story of the "Downing", that the Ukes shot it down with an older, UAF owned and deployed Buc 9M38M1 missile from UAF controlled territory, while Russia had none of these older Buc missiles deployed.

Russia has had the 9M317M deployed for decades which employs a recognizable warhead burst pattern completely different than a 9M38M1.

Didn't the Russians deny that they were making war in Ukraine, that it was only "separatists" who were fighting the Ukrainian government? But where would such "separatists" get sophisticated Russian air defense systems -- assuming for purposes of initial analysis that such separatists were the real culprits?

Too bad that Europe's air traffic controllers and airlines took Russian assurances at face value and regarded high altitude civilian air traffic in the "war zone" as safe. That is why the Dutch airline and the pilots of MH17 accepted official European directives and flew over the area, thinking that its was high enough to avoid any menacing MANPADs.

In that more innocent era before the Russian invasion of Ukraine proper, Europe preferred not to recognize that Putin and his gang are monsters. Blowing up Russian apartment blocks and blaming Chechen terrorists to win election for Putin and then repeatedly murdering Russian critics is one thing -- only Russians were getting killed -- but deliberately blowing up innocent European civilians once you are in power makes less sense -- or so it then seemed.

For psychopaths like Putin though, violence easily makes sense. And there is little doubt that not only did the Russians shoot down MH17, but they did so deliberately in order to assert control and test Europe's level of tolerance for Russian state violence. And Putin got what he wanted, a clear indication that Europe was not yet willing to act against him and the deliciously cheap oil and gas supplies he controls.

In the dark recesses of Putin's mind, he must at times be angry and perplexed at the Europeans. He deliberately shoots down one of their airliners over a part of Ukraine he occupies, but they draw the line at him attacking Ukraine itself? What kind of fools are these Europeans -- to endanger their own economies for the sake of a bunch of Ukrainians but not for their own murdered civilian airline passengers!

Strange,

Ukes shot it down, yet it is the “seperatists” posing to celebrate the crime.

Not so strange, I celebrate publicly when my enemies screw up bigtime. Often at the location of their screw up, makes it easier for people to remember the screw up and feels good, too.

The European Court of Human Rights has confirmed it will hear a Dutch case against Russia over the downing of flight MH17 in 2014.

At this stage, the ECHR’s decision is only procedural and does not rule on the merits of the case, but it shows the court believes Russia can be held accountable for the human rights violations in the regions of Luhansk and Donetsk.

It could be years before a ruling is issued, but if the ECHR issues a guilty verdict against Russia, Moscow could be obliged to pay damages to the victims’ relatives.

Last September, Russia stopped being party to the European Convention on Human Rights, but the court can still deal with claims against Russia regarding actions up until that date. In November, a Dutch court at the Schiphol Judicial Complex found three men - two Russians and a Ukrainian - guilty of murder in absentia for their part in the downing of MH17.
