How can this possibly be happening again?

ABC:

A massive sea search continued Sunday morning after an AirAsia Airbus A320-200 lost contact with ground control over the Java Sea during a flight from Surabaya, Indonesia, to Singapore, shortly after the pilots requested a change of flight plan because of weather.

Flight QZ8501, which had 162 people on board, lost contact with air traffic control at 7:24 a.m. Sunday local time near Belitung Island, Indonesia, according to a statement from AirAsia. It was scheduled to land in Singapore at 8:30 a.m. local time.

The plane was several hours past the time when its fuel would have been exhausted, Indonesian officials said during a news conference Sunday.

Sixteen children and one infant were among the passengers.

I guess it’s Indonesia and not Malaysia this time, but they’re the same basic people, and it’s the same area… if they completely lose this one like the last one, it is going to be really super weird.

Though everyone already knew that the West was responsible for the shooting down of Malaysia Flight MH17, as they had refused to release the satellite footage of the plane going down, we now have incontrovertible proof.

Russia has acquired and released photos showing the plane being shot down by a fighter jet.

There you have it.

The West has repeatedly claimed that Russia must have done it using a BUK surface-to-air missile.  They couldn’t come up with an explanation of why Russia would have done it, and so forwarded the theory that maybe because Putin is a really mean person and likes to see people die.

The photos are reportedly from either an American or a British satellite.  They were released on Russian state-owned television, ahead of a summit in Australia where it was expected that Western leaders would attack Putin and claim he was responsible for shooting down the plane.

Experts who have viewed the images have said they cannot find any indication they are fake.  They have also noted that the shooting is a “classic” fighter jet manoeuvre.

I expect that the West won’t respond at all.  We have already witnessed them stop talking about it completely.

Clearly, this attack was a false flag gone wrong, carried out by either an actual western government or the ZOG puppet government of Jewkraine.

All over the world, it is not so much Ukrainian separatists or even Russia as a nation being blamed for Malaysia Jet – it is Putin himself, as an individual human being.  They actually appear to be insinuating – though not exactly saying it directly – that Putin ordered Malaysia Jet shot down.

Putin has been treated as an international super-villain by the media for years now, so it is easy enough to simply say “he did it,” and the masses will go along with it.

Here’s an example.

Herald Sun:

RUSSIA’S President, Vladimir Putin, the little man with the big stare, has always been in control. It starts with those chameleon eyes and what, at least one observer assumes, must be decades of practice. Does Putin ever blink?

He has never bothered with charm. No need. Newspapers that write the wrong thing? They close. Naughty rock singers? They go to jail. As for Western powers united in condemnation? So what?

Until Thursday afternoon, that is, when a plane fell out of the Ukraine sky and Putin, a master manipulator and (sometimes shirtless) man of action, sensed it at once. A student of history, he recognised a turning point.

The MH17 disaster was a coincidence of timing, a tick over a century to the day since a crazed Serbian nationalist, Gavrilo Princip, shot dead the heir to the Austro-Hungarian throne, Franz Ferdinand.

The Archduke’s assassination was terrorism at its clumsiest, a blunder in a heightened time of tension. Comparisons are tempting. Putin seemed to know that the downing of MH17, too, would be a shot “heard around the world”.

He blinked. He had lost control.

A comparison to the Ferdinand assassination, eh?

That is not very responsible journalism.

The Weirdness is Upon Us

Today, the coup government of the Ukraine accused separatists of stealing 38 bodies from the crash site, which seems insane, and a rebel leader allegedly came out and said that many of the bodies in the wreckage must have been dead when they boarded the plane, which also seems insane.

The whole scenario is intensely bizarre, and is sure to get more so.

Look at this picture, for instance:

Think that picture is the weirdest thing you’ve seen yet?

Well, how’s about a little of this?

Daily Mail:

The pilot of MH17 radioed that he ‘felt uncomfortable’ about the route he was flying while over Ukraine and fatally altered his course to hostile territory, according to an expert.

Dr Igor Sutyagin, Research Fellow in Russian Studies from the Royal United Services Institute, believes that MH17 was shot down by rebels based in the 3rd District of Torez, in eastern Ukraine, after mistaking his plane for a government military transport aircraft.

He told MailOnline that information had been leaked from a source he was unwilling to name that the pilot of MH17 ‘felt bad’ about his course over Ukrainian airspace, so changed direction.

There doesn’t seem to be any new, relevant evidence available. Just a lot of blaming and weird speculation.

I’m a little bit surprised there is less talk of military intervention by NATO.

Here are the pictures from the crash site.

Sure does seem like a lot of children’s toys.

What a mess.
