Russia has released satellite images that allegedly show MH17 being shot down. The report was on Russia 1 TV. Brown Moses and his cohort of followers are desperately trying to debunk the images but as yet have failed to do so.
Here are the attempts to debunk the images so far:
1. Brown Moses jumped straight in there and said the Malaysia logo should have been over the wing. To his credit he has retweeted a tweet debunking that: a photo taken of MH17 at Schipol on take off shows that the positions of the Malaysia logos match;
2. the time stamp was inevitably attacked but the initial attacks have faltered;
3. another line of attack was the fighter jet, someone posted an outline of a Su 25 which does not match the profile of the fighter shooting MH17, but a Su 27 or Mig 29 does have that profile, and the Ukraine Air Force has those too, and they can easily reach to that altitude when loaded;
4. the one suggestion from Brown Moses that does raise concern is the image of a single cloud, but he fails to explain what happened to the other clouds in the Google Maps image when just the one cloud appears on the MH17 image.
I would suggest that to debunk today's images Brown Moses et al remember that on 17th July Donetsk was a war zone.
Can they find images of artillery or troops? Can damage and destruction on Donetsk from shelling by Kiev Nazis be seen in the MH17 satellite images that cannot be found on Google Maps? If not then it is possible that the background satellite images were lifted from Google Maps. But what happened to all the clouds?
I don't have the image manipulation software to zoom in on today's MH17 satellite images.
But there is also some vanity going down. The G20 meeting starts today. Perhaps these images and stories have been released to deflect attacks on Putin while he is in the presence of so many who want his blood, rather than in response to the interesting Belling Cat report released last weekend?
