Malaysia Airlines Crash: UN Security Council Sets Urgent Meeting on Ukraine
NDTV ^ | 6-18-2014 | NDTV

Posted on 07/17/2014 11:30:19 PM PDT by tcrlaf

United Nations: The UN Security Council will hold an emergency meeting today morning on Ukraine.

Britain's UN Mission said yesterday it requested the meeting and later tweeted that it is set for 10 am today.

The request follows Wednesday's downing of a Ukrainian air force fighter and yesterday's downing of a Malaysia Airlines passenger plane carrying 295 people over eastern Ukraine.

Britain has proposed a Security Council press statement calling for "a full, thorough and independent international investigation into the incident."

The statement, obtained by The Associated Press, was circulated to all 15 council members, who must approve it before it can be issued.

Four engines; maybe two planes?

I expect the Rebels will ask the Russians to be the Primary here, and Ukraine will scream about it.

Since when do you let the killers choose who will be in charge of the investigation???

The Russians are masters at brainwashing the masses with propaganda, look at Russian people and look at the advancement of socialism by Marxists here in US and Europe, Russia has never stopped in it’s war to win by destroying us.

It is obvious there are paid Russian operatives here at FR. At least two and maybe as many as six by my count.

Here's a preview of the meeting, to include much "harrumphing":

At work at the plane site....

in full contravention of international law and the demand of the Malaysian government that they all stay away from the crash site.

Those missiles require codes to fire, now where did the Russian rebels get the codes and training for those missiles they have been using to take down high flying aircraft? Russia/Putin is only answer.

I read an article about Russia paying people to infiltrate social media boards. Wouldn’t surprise me if Terlaf is on the Russian payroll.

Kind of like the Cochran campaign paying Democrats to vote for him in the MS Senate runoff.

From what I have been reading, the BUK can be operated individually by it’s operators in “Emergency Mode”.

Some are saying that’s not the plane as it has four engines.....

Would that some be the Russian cossacks who brought down the plane keeping everybody else from the crash site???

I’ll let those who know more about planes to say as i really don’t know one from the other.

Yeh don't let your ignorance of planes and the facts interfere with your propaganda efforts here.

Who are they going to send the slightly strongly worded letter to?

Apparently a bunch of AIDS scientists and delegates were on-board and a spokesperson for WHO, headed to a conference in Australia. In other words the whole world is probably going to be angry about this.

Your not paying attention and confusing yourself.....

The plane in that video was one taken down in Afghanistan....if you followed threads about this you would have seen Freepers identifying it properly for what it is.

The Actual plane that went down had portions break apart in the air as well as the explosion on landing.

Good idea not to jump to conclusion unless following threads concerning this event, you will see some are trying to determine what really happened and posting what they find...if not accurate others will identify so....and the better freepers do so without prefacing names and insults.

Probably called Moscow to ask for direction after seeing what they did too.

I heard the Black Box was sent to Moscow

I would expect that many of the people on the scene after this crash were attempting to find any survivors....and that's a good thing Chip.

Also the emergency services were there to put out the fires..as photos galore have depicted.

There is no way you can keep an incident undisturbed when peoples lives are at stake and any chance finding some who have survived.

Sheesh!....Some of you guys aren't thinking......too busy pointing fingers and hammering out insults to those trying to bring information to the threads.

Emergency workers, police officers and 'even off-duty coal miners' spread out Friday across the sunflower fields and villages of eastern Ukraine, 'searching the wreckage site of a jetliner shot down as it flew miles above the country's battlefield.

....”I think we can both agree it’s time for a NATO-led coalition to intervene and restore order”....

That’s a very tricky decision they will be making if they decide to do so. Ukraine is not a member of Nato....legally Nato forces cannot enter the country.

But all parties are pretty much breaking International Law so who knows what will be next in ultimately stopping the bombardments and bombing. Same in Syria, Iraq....and other conflicts.....will always depend on what resources or significance of a nation is in how they eventually respond or don’t respond.

So glad other freepers are eager to make solid determinations when something is questionable. I have seen the “other video” which shows the descending plane is actually one shot down in Afghanistan....so looks like this other one was put together to be what it isn't.

So when are the Russians going to turn the black boxes over to the Malaysians, and when are their Donetsk comrades going to allow Malaysia, the Netherlands, etc to send a team in there to gather up their dead and begin their investigation???

...”From what I have been reading, the BUK can be operated individually by it’s operators in “Emergency Mode””...

At the UN Sec. Meeting... US Rep. Samantha Powers admitted in her statements that others can operate these systems so she could not blame Russia directly at this time.

What is amazing is how the US/Britain/Ukraine at the UN pretty much used the ‘same vocabulary’ in their speeches...and then later so did Obama in his speech.

What was also stunning was Malaysia’s Un Rep. statments were interrupted at the UN while media switched to obamas talking points in the crash.

Legalities come into play since Donetsk does not recognize Kiev Gov. , by International Law Ukraine should be the lead in the investigation, but because they are at war it muddies the waters.

Oddly enough Obama claimed today the US will continue to take the lead in Ukraine......

Last I read the Anti-Kiev force leaders will turn over the boxes to The Independant Investigators who will be going to the site.
