Interesting documentary video of the Dutch Safety Boards investigation into the crash of flight MH-17, interesting to see how they came to the conclusions.

They also put blame on Ukraine for not closing the airspace.

It's really tragic and distressing. The warhead killed the flight deck crew instantly and took the nose off the aircraft. It then flew on for several seconds before plunging to earth. The passengers would have been aware of all this happening.

Interesting that it was subtitled in Russian.

I think it's in the hope that some Russians will watch it and think for themselves.

Russian govt says they disagree with the investigation findings about type of missile and the location it was fired from, too bad they haven't released a detailed video like this to support their version of things, my guess is they probably won't...

I just hope those people in the mid and back section of the plane died instantly and didn't have to live in terror all the way to the ground from 30,000 feet after the plane broke up... poor people.

Hopefully in the future, airspace will be closed around a conflict area.

Russian argument: It could have been ANYTHING, we just don't know...but we DO know it wasn't a Buk fired from eastern Ukraine. Because secret knowledge.

That's classic Russia!

Kinda reminds me of their theatre hostage rescue. 100 people dead from mystery gas they pumped in. To help the doctors treating dying patients their answer was "Sorry bro don't know what was in it!"
