A CLASSIC IN THE WASHINGTON POST

Take this article in The Washington Post:

Missile downs Malaysia Airlines plane over Ukraine, killing 298; Kiev blames rebels

http://www.washingtonpost.com/world/europe/malaysia-airlines-plane-disappears-over-ukraine-feared-shot-down-by-missile/2014/07/17/0fffe1e6-0dcb-11e4-8341-b8072b1e7348_story.html?hpid=z1

It says this about the BUK:

U.S. intelligence officials confirmed, but could not identify the origins of, the missile strike that led to the deadliest downing of a civilian passenger plane in recent decades. One Ukrainian government official, however, said the Boeing 777 traveling from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur appeared to have been hit by an advanced Russian-made missile system that recently came into the hands of the pro-Moscow separatists waging a bloody uprising in the east.

...In recent months, the rebels have shot down numerous Ukrainian military aircraft using short-range surface-to-air missiles. Experts said such rockets could probably not reach a plane flying at 33,000 feet, as Flight 17 was said to be. But Ukrainian authorities have said the rebels recently obtained Russian-made Buk surface-to-air missiles — a complex system using ground radar to guide a missile to its target and which, experts said, requires expertise and training to operate.

Two mentions of the BUK. In both cases the Ukraine government says the separatists have the system, while not acknowledging that the Ukraine military has the system.

Cover up, anyone?

ps This is the same megaphone of Bilderberg that still publishes Snowden revelations in fake shock horror on its front page, isn't it?
