Washington Seeks to Counter Russian Claims About MH17 Crash
U.S. intelligence officials presented reporters with their most detailed case yet Tuesday that Russian-backed Ukrainian separatists shot down a Malaysia Airlines jetliner last week, in a bid to counter what American officials see as Russian efforts to muddy the waters with claims of Ukrainian culpability.
The officials relied on photographs, social media, and voiceprint analysis of Ukrainian communications intercepts to make their public case that a likely SA-11 antiaircraft weapon fired from separatist-controlled territory shot down the commercial airliner, killing 298 people on board.
The evidence cited, however, didn't raise the case for Russian involvement in the shoot-down to a new level of certainty. Officials said they are still working to refine evidence and may offer more in coming days.
Other U.S. officials, including some at the Pentagon, have said more assertively in recent days that Russia likely provided the missile system used by separatists to shoot down Flight 17. The more restrained presentation by intelligence officials Tuesday reflected the cautious nature of intelligence analysis.

Locals in the rebel-held city of Torez said on Tuesday that on the day Flight 17 went down, they spotted an SA-11, or Buk, missile on a flatbed truck traveling through the town center toward the alleged launch site.
One Torez resident who works on the main road said the SA-11 was notable because he hadn't seen such a sophisticated ground-to-air missile system among the many military vehicles that had rolled through Torez since fighting began. He said what looked like the same truck later came back through town going the other way, without the missile.

And before I took the contract, I had no idea that John McCain was pulling George Soros’ strings. What a mess this turned out to be . . . .
The BUK was “proved” to be Ukrainian, by whom, the Kremlin?
Da Comrade, is all Amerikanski lies!
“U.S. intelligence officials presented reporters with their most detailed case yet Tuesday that Russian-backed Ukrainian separatists shot down ... “.
In other news, Glenn Beck, Sheriff Joe and Bill O’Reilly all plan to present new evidence on extraterrestrial aliens, if you will just tune in at 8:00 Central, 9:00 Eastern time/
Yes it was....all knows that Ukraine Gov is manufacturing propaganda just as Russia and the US are....some are found out to be frauds...this was one of them...Ukraine failed to mask the sign sufficient enough, behind the BU which exposed it as a fake.
Sure and since the evidence is so strong I’m sure you’ll post it here so everyone knows it’s true right?
Don’t waste your time man.
Russians suck, people who love Russia suck and they are both so incredibly stupid that they actually truly believe that any of their ridiculous accusations, 3rd grade level propaganda, & wild explanations will be persuasive to other thinking people, because well, their moron Russians believe them.
They don’t understand because they can’t mentally comprehend that there are actually people out there in the world who have individual critical thinking skills and can follow basic common sense and logic. Because again, those capabilities are wholeheartedly missing in Russian culture.
The isn’t anything funnier in the entire world than a Russian or Russophile trying to make an argument. Everything they say is comical from the second they open their mouths.
Case and point on this thread.
Sorry that should read “Case in point.”
In a war, there is no case.
Sending lawyers rather than warriors will end badly again..... like it did in Bengazi
Caww is a lying pile of soviet crap, and what he is referring to is the Russkie claim that they geolocated a video in a place elsewhere than where it was claimed to be. It is dealt with here:

Caww and his buddies are pathological liars, Paulbot/Putinista piles of steaming crap, who are vomitting up Russian propaganda on this forum uncritically and without being honest about where they are getting it from. They lie about everything. They lie constantly. They lie without shame.
Believe any little thing they say at your own peril.
On Tuesday this week, the Washington Times reported that a spokesperson for the US Department of Defense confirmed plans to put Pentagon Military advisers in Ukraine.
“Within the next few weeks, a group of Defense Department representatives who specialize in strategy and policy will head to Kiev to evaluate specific programs that the United States may want to help bolster,” reporter Maggie Ybarra wrote for the Times.
The newspaper says that Army Col. Steve Warren, a spokesperson for the Pentagon, told the Times that the objective of sending DoD advisers overseas is to “shape and establish 'an enduring program for FUTURE efforts to support the Ukrainian military through subject-matter expert teams and long-term advisers.”
..... previously back in early June that US military advisers were being offered to Kiev “to help Ukraine build highly effective armed forces and defense institutions” and to “shape and establish an enduring program for future US efforts to support the Ukrainian military through training, education and assistance.”

You are another lying pile of soviet crap, and it is impossible to speak nicely to subhumans such as yourself, nor is speaking nicely to creeps such as you even required. Is one required to speak politely to the dog?
See my last post to Caww. The retard is putting out propaganda that is already obsolete.
If you had any shame, you'd be grovelling on your knees apologizing. But a slime ball such as yourself does not care whether what he says is true or not. He just cares about his next vodka break. Also, stop hitting the post button twice, you incompetent pile of crap.
