The Washington Post про сбитый самолет

В общем-то, ничего нового.

Почти.

Many local residents support the Ukrainian-based pro-Russia separatists who U.S. and Ukrainian officials say launched the missile that downed the plane. And though most locals deplore what happened to the civilian airliner, some simply don’t believe that the rebels did it.

“It was shot down by Ukrainians. There were two planes behind [the Malaysia flight]. That’s what I heard,” said Oleg, 50, a resident of the village of Hrabove, where the bulk of the plane’s wreckage came to rest. Oleg, who would not give his last name because he feared for his safety, watched over the debris site one recent day with an 80-year-old rifle.

“This is our help from Russia,” he said, shaking the rifle — not advanced antiaircraft missile systems capable of downing jets at high altitudes.

Nor has the downing of the Boeing 777-200 slowed the pace of combat. Battles continue to rage around rebel-controlled territory in eastern Ukraine, including on Sunday, so close to the main debris site that international observers canceled a visit there. Residential neighborhoods in Donetsk have been shelled from the direction of Ukrainian military positions. U.S. officials said Friday that some 15,000 Russian troops were massing at the border with Ukraine, a fresh sign that Russian President Vladimir Putin, rather than stepping away from his support of the separatists, may be doubling down. Ukrainian and NATO officials have said that Russia has been shelling Ukraine from over the border and there were fresh reports of heavy weaponry and vehicles flowing over the border over the weekend, a charge that Russia has denied.

An Honest Story Could Kill You

Earlier this year, Russian journalist Anton Voloshin and his colleague Igor Kornelyuk were killed by Ukrainian military mortar fire. Russia’s Sergei Dolgov, who was an editor at newspapers Hochu v SSSR, is believed to have been tortured and killed by pro-Kiev elements. Anatoly Klyan, a cameraman for Channel One, was killed in an overnight attack by Ukrainian forces on a bus carrying journalists and soldiers’ mothers. Italian photo journalist Andrea Rocchelli and his Russian interpreter were killed in a ditch by Ukraine security forces mortar fire back in May. So as you can tell, covering the other side of the Ukraine upheaval story is proving extremely hazardous for storytellers.

The news we are fed, here in Germany, and in the rest of the west, it’s become as unreliable as any tabloid. Worse still, the people who try and ask the right questions, even viable answers to “what’s really going on in the world” – we’re subject to extreme criticism, undue scrutiny, and as you see, even a death penalty for some. Meanwhile, the Associated Press affiliate run by AP Chairperson Mary Junck’s Lee Enterprises in Sioux City Iowa…. well, those readers get a headline, an AP picture of pro-Russians in Donetsk on a tank, and no proof of the headline ‘”US: Russia is firing across border into Ukraine” whatever.

Now there’s continuity and consistency for you. The State Department and the press, ad nau·se·am. How stupid do they think you are?

Mighty, pitifully, and deadly stupid.

Я не понял, а куда летели ракеты?

И, если они упали, то — куда?
