congrats on a really bad, incomprehensible joke
World War 3?

The Russians are trying to claim that this was an attempt on Putin's life, claiming his plane was in the area. Nevermind that the Ukrainian military wouldn't have access to that information, even if it was true.
"See, guys? IT TOTALLY WASN'T US."
Everybody's throwing out lots of accusations all over the place. We'll have to wait 'till the dust settles, and even so. Could still be either side, on purpose or a fringe group overstepping bounds, or a foreign group infiltrating to destabilize. Lord knows IS would love Europe and America to focus fully on Ukraine and leave Israel and Iraq to calmly implode on their own, and they've got BUKs too.

Oh, Russia's not crazy, just corrupt and power hungry. They're going about this in a very savvy fashion, mostly using proxies to perpetrate their will and make it difficult to prove they're involved, when all circumstantial evidence shows they clearly are the puppetmaster here.
I wasn't implying that Russia was the crazy one, just that Russia sure does seem to spend a lot of time courting the crazy ones.

Apparently all the bodies found at the scene of the plane crash were dead long before the plane took off and were drained of blood.
Says Ukraine rebel commander.

Wait... Do they watch Sherlock?
I knew it! The whole thing was a ploy put into motion by the vampires. HOW DEVIOUS!
Great, now the Russians are messing with dead bodies.

They can't seriously believe we'd even stand a chance of believing that malarky, do they?
Time Traveling Vampires!?
We are doomed!

This has to be a joke. The sheer amount of effort it would take to get the plane, acquire the dead bodies, plant the dead bodies, and then getting the plane into Ukrainian airspace without anyone catching on would be ludicrous and it would be FOR NO REASON. They could alter the manifest, but then that would require the complicit co-operation of Air Malaysia and the airport... but we'd find out those bodies couldn't have come from the departure.
This is just insane.

There was a time when the Russians would have a revolution over this kind of thing. Still, it just goes to show that Russia's attempts to fool the world are so bad that even Russians don't believe it.

That is some devious Simon Phoenix kinda bullshit right there
I think they must have read the first book of The Strain.
Or just watched the first TV episode.

They are actively looting the bodies and items from the crash.
This whole thing is such a clusterfuck it's unbelievable.

Last night I sent in a report about a trailer off to the side of the road in the night ('cuz it's around a curve and hard to see in the dark). I got a response from someone else on the same highway that basically said, "Yeah! I saw it, too. Just two perfectly good jet-skis sitting there. I might've stopped for them but my car doesn't have a hitch."
People surprise me less and less, and I really wish it were otherwise.

Considering how crappy life is in Ukraine, I really don't blame these people for taking advantage of this. Is it wrong? Yes. But I'd probably do the same in their situation.
That sounds unlikely.
