...An msm report (not the Roberts article) says:<br /><br /> From satellites, sensors and other intelligence gathering, officials said, they know where the missile originated -- in separatist-held territory -- and what its flight path was. But if they possess satellite or other imagery of the missile being fired, they did not release it Tuesday. A graphic they made public depicts their estimation of the missile's flight path with a green line. The jet's flight path was available from air traffic control data.<br /><br />This smells to high heaven.

A friend of ours who has worked in government security said it is not easy for Washington to release satellite photos. Yet a while back, it did release photos purportedly showing Russian tanks arrayed at the border with Ukraine and that was supposedly very shortly after the photos were taken.<br />Funny how easy it is to release satellite photos when they implicate the country that neocon Mitt Romney claims is our most dangerous enemy (ignoring China's gargantuan arsenal and open threats) but how difficult it is to release images that may well exonerate Russia, a country that so far, has only intervened when asked to do so and by traditional allies.<br />This is BS!<br />BTW, I often whince a bit before reading a Roberts article because he is not always objective. However, here he did a pretty good job of controlling his feelings (I have the same problem, gotta admit. I love my country but LOATHE the government. Why lie?).<br />Don Hank<br /><br />Read more: http://www.ctvnews.ca/world/no-direct-link-to-russia-in-downing-of-flight-mh17-u-s-officials-1.1925639#ixzz38LitPCWEAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
