[Purveyor]

Russia hit back at Western claims that Kremlin-backed rebels downed Malaysia Airlines Flight MH17 and demanded that the U.S. provide evidence of its alleged role in the missile attack.

"In Russia we are not playing these games that our Western counterparts are engaging very much in, blaming someone and accusing some parties without any evidence"

But speaking late Monday, Putin's Ambassador to Malaysia Lyudmila Vorobyeva described the Obama administration's claims as "groundless" and suggested that Ukraine's government could be responsible for shooting down the jet.

"There have been a lot of accusations and finger pointing towards Russia," she said. "The U.S. claims they have evidence of what happened, where is this evidence?"

"We also have some questions for our U.S. partners," Lieutenant-General Andrei Kartopolov said at the presentation in Moscow. "According to the U.S. declarations, they have satellite images that confirm the missile was launched by the rebels. But nobody has seen these images. If the American side has pictures from this satellite, then they should show the international community."

1. Not a big fan of Putin myself

But if the US has the evidence, then it's time to either put up or shut up! The US can provide the evidence it claims to have to a UN delegation made up of neutral countries!

[cprise]

2. Truly. Western establishment CT got us into Iraq and

destabilized and alienated nearly all of Latin America, so I'll repeat the call:

Put up or shut up!

Men from all over Europe are entering the Ukraine. But neo-nazis from the western countries are apparently of no concern to US corporate media.
