Just remember one word...
One simple word that destroyed many of our lives...
C O I N T E L P R O.....
It is more benificial to those in power to have us argue and distrust among ourselves a sprinkle of truth here a big lie there....
Even a good journalist can be a sucker or shill for the MIC...
Nothing is ever simple...
With that said...anyone that believes they have proof countering rebels own admissions of downing the jet in writing and recorded statements alluding to their guilt are either gulible fools or being paid handsomely to muddy the waters for sensationalism and profit....an ego trip with cash on the side...
It happens all the time...

Steve Benen comes pretty close in my estimation though. Course he doesn't go in for CTs.. just the facts.. he tries really hard. He's on Maddow's Blog.
