“Putin’s greatest worry is that [the US] Congress will deem the Donetsk People’s Republic (DNR) a terrorist organisation, responsible for the worst attack on a civilian airliner since 9/11, which would make Russia a state sponsor of terrorism.
Thanks AdmSmith. Pooty-poot ping.
I think congress should go further and call the Russian govt a terrorist organization.
I am convinced trained active duty Russian military personnel were manning that BUK missile unit and that is why it scurried back across Russian border after this act of terrorism.
The plan may have been to convince the world the Ukrainians shot down the Malaysian plane in a failed attempt to shoot Putin’s plane down. This is how the Russian mind works, just like cold war days, which never ended imo.
Maybe congresses best move is to name the Donetsk People’s Republic (DNR) a terrorist organization, which would make Russia a state sponsor of terrorism....AND proclaim the Russian govt is a terrorist organization if it is proved that active duty Russian military personnel were manning that BUK missile unit or there was any Russian command structure regarding that BUK. US intel may already have proof of that.
