If that is true it shows that our governments think the populace has memories like goldfish and brains like mush. Where did you get that info from? If it was true I'm sure the Russians would be keen to tell the world all about it.I read in a few places Australia, Holland, Belgium and the western backed side of Ukraine have signed this.I don't know if this true or not as I have been reading some utter bullshit the last few weeks in our press.
Considering how Australia tried to blame Russia and sanction Russia in what looked like a pre planned political attack, if this treaty is indeed correct. The Russians are most probably right that the plane was most likely shot down by another plane.

You read wrong or read russian propaganda websites. The investigation is being led by the dutch, despite Ukraine technically being in charge of it (the crash occurred on Ukranian territory which means they would normally be in charge of investigating). A quick glance at the dutch investigation safety board website: http://www.onderzoeksraad.nl/en/ond...ning-the-investigation-into-flight-mh17#fasen reveals Russia are a party to the investigation.
Furthermore, the ongoing investigation is seeking only the facts about the accident. How the aircraft crashed and what caused it to crash. The type of missile that brought it down and what direction it came from. Their job isn't about blaming anyone, just establishing the facts. So any reports you have read about the investigation not being released are complete bs and/or russian propaganda websites.
Any update or info on the air traffic control tapes "confiscated" by the Ukraine security service - have those "finally" made their "uncompromised" way to the crash investigation?
So we'll see what happens when everything comes out in the open- if it does at all.Again you're reading into Russian propaganda. ICAO regulations state that evidence used in crash investigations is published once the preliminary report has been released. They will be released with the preliminary report which the dutch investigation board has indicated will be released in 2-3 weeks time. Just as it would be with any air crash investigation.
And on that, the source of that information, the supposed "Carlos" who supposedly works in Ukranian ATC has been debunked as read here:
http://www.stopfake.org/en/lies-spa...-ukrainian-planes-involved-in-boeing-tragedy/
Ukranian regulations forbid anyone but Ukranian citizens from working in ATC. And the supposed "Carlos" had earlier claimed he had been chased out of Ukraine in May because of radical extremists. Yet he suddenly returns and is "working" in ATC.
Appalling misinformation and propaganda by the Russians yet again and you have to wonder what their motives are. They didn't pull the trigger themselves and should be disavowing themselves from the separatists but in doing so would forgo their plans to invade/oppress Ukraine.
Russia has historically always seeked to oppress Ukranians right back to the Stalin days when they starved Ukranians and took all their food. But apparently it is the evil US who are responsible.

Where is the evidence for these claims? Or evidence that the rebels shot the plane down?Nobody us saying the Russians pulled the trigger themselves. They are responsible for training / arming the separatists and/or providing crews capable of operating the BUK missile system though.
According to who and with what evidence?Are you serious? The rebels boasted about shooting down a ukranian transport plane shortly after mh 17 crashed... there's phone intercepts that are damning.
Hahahahahahaa.The evidence is overwhelming and conclusive that the rebels shot the plane down believing it to be a ukranian military transport aircraft.
but then theres this.or it could be the opposite, countries in the region worried aggravating further risking russia pumping up gas prices in return of threatening to make the region more unstable might not want to their name on something that pisses off the russians....... particularly with the northern winter right around the corner.
A letter sent by a prominent Dutch Professor to Russian president Vladimir Putin has attracted much media attention in Europe. The letter was written by Professor Cees Hamelink and signed by dozens of Dutch intellectuals and professors.
Please accept our apologies on behalf of a great many people here in the Netherlands for our Government and our Media. The facts concerning MH17 are twisted to defame you and your country.
We are powerless onlookers, as we witness how the Western Nations, led by the United States, accuse Russia of crimes they commit themselves more than anybody else. We reject the double standards that are used for Russia and the West. In our societies, sufficient evidence is required for a conviction. The way you and your Nation are convicted for 'crimes' without evidence, is ruthless and despicable.
We, awake citizens of the West, who see the lies and machinations of our Governments, wish to offer you our apologies for what is done in our name.
It’s unfortunately true, that our media have lost all independence and are just mouthpieces for the Powers that Be. Because of this, Western people tend to have a warped view of reality and are unable to hold their politicians to account.
The question is why was MH17 changed off it's original flight path and diverted 200km south? I have little doubt that this was a deliberate act to try and allow a Ukraine miltary plane to shadow MH17 through rebel held territory.Are you serious? The rebels boasted about shooting down a ukranian transport plane shortly after mh 17 crashed. As soon as it was discovered to be a civilian airliner they quickly removed ant reference to the crash. There's plenty of videos of the BUK missile launcher being transported through rebel held territory; the truck used to transport the BUK was identified as being stolen by the rebels in donetsk on July 8th; there's phone intercepts that are damning. The evidence is overwhelming and conclusive that the rebels shot the plane down believing it to be a ukranian military transport aircraft.
but then theres this.

ignored by our press as well.
Its quite powerful stuff from leading dutch academics.
the whole letter is well worth the read.

I also have little doubt that the BUK was Russian and those who fired it were Russian trained. But they had shot down other Ukraine miltary aircraft before so the Ukraine government would of known that it was a risk.
Neither side is blameless here, but the evidence suggest that the Russian version of events is closer to the actual truth than the NATO version.
This the guy your insinuating is a communist sympathizerQuoting zero hedge has about as much credibility as quoting David Icke.
