MOSCOW — A top pro-Russia rebel commander in eastern Ukraine has given a bizarre version of events surrounding the Malaysian jetliner crash — suggesting many of the victims may have died days before the plane took off.

The pro-rebel website Russkaya Vesna on Friday quoted Igor Girkin as saying he was told by people at the crash site that "a significant number of the bodies weren't fresh," adding that he was told they were drained of blood and reeked of decomposition. ....

Girkin said "Ukrainian authorities are capable of any baseness."

How embarrassing to be a Russian today. If they had any say in their government, they could fire Putin today for bringing this shame on their nation.

A Malaysian airline flight full of dead people? Maybe this is MH370.

This is a top rebel commander, I was going to say something nasty, then I remembered that we had a congressman hank johnson (d- ga) who feared that the island of Guam could tip over and capsize from to many marines.
Idiots have been sprinkled all over this planet, they have theirs, we certainly have ours.

Oh I am sure some Putinista’s, the nuts over at InfoWars and a few assorted Paulbots will run with this. It’s just crazy enough for them to believe it - ofcourse the NATO neo-con banksters trying to prop up fiat currency and depress the price of gold will be the likely culprits.

Looks like he’s solved the mystery of the missing Malaysian jetliner. It’s been cruising around the sky for the last 4 months with dead bodies on board until they finally shot it out of the sky.

‘This “rebel leader” talks like he may be a DemocRAT.’

He Does, doesn’t he. He sounds just like Harry Reid. He says dumb stuff like Reid.

‘dead for days’ I thought the shoot down happened yesterday? Is there intelligent life on earth, still?

Isn’t he the guy who went back to Moscow, resigned, and didn’t go back to that area of Ukraine? Now he says the people were corpses...and they had just taken off from Amsterdam a few hours earlier? Bizarre.

So flt 370 was actually highjacked by Ukrainian/NATO black ops to be shot down so Putin could be blamed so the globalists can have an excuse to go to war with Russia and make bank selling arms to both sides! That’s one I haven’t heard Alex Jones and Jesse Ventura peddle yet.

Wow. Was this guy trained by Obama’s handlers?

I expect that the usual cadre of Russian Apologists will be avoiding this thread.

Powerful imagination you have Troll!
We will never know the truth on what happened but wouldn't it be interesting to know if all of the families of the those who perished on that flight will be told the same thing. Sorry here are the remains of your loved one(s).
They were only id’d with dna...cause the body was so badly mangled.
BTW..I am no Russian lover. as far as I am concerned the US gov’t and the Russkies have a deal to tank the global banking system and start over, They have a deal until the double dealing starts. Both are guilty as sin!!!!
Love your gov’t much....troll?

Maybe the deceased bodies were AIDs diseased bodies in the cargo hold? Headed for the AIDs conference in Australia? Haven’t yet heard anyone inquire about the cargo.

Are you nuts? What conspiracy are you pushing here? I don't quite get what loopy thing you are babbling about regarding the families of those who died on the plane. Many of the bodies are visible identifiable, so whatever crazy nonsense you are spewing is just silly dribble.

You sound like a paulbot truther who has spent too long listening to Alex Jones. Do yourself a favor, turn off InfoWars and back away from the computer.
