The Donbas miltia did it. But since it was very close to the border,
Kiev and then the Atlanticist propaganda too, attributed it to Russia.
It happened mainly due to the sloppiness of the pro-Kiev hitmen.

Also it's called Zeleopolye rather than "zelenophilia".

And Oleg wonders why civilized countries hold Russia in contempt.
The denial seems worse than the accusation.
Which is worse, evil intent, or allowing evil to use your weapons?

Oleg thinks we should think it OK, that Russia gives
these rocket artillery weapons to "milita".

Or I guess he thinks it fine when their sophisticated
surface to air missiles kill civilians on airliners.


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malaysia_Airlines_Flight_17
"Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 (MH17)[a] was a scheduled passenger flight
from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur that was shot down on 17 July 2014 while
flying over eastern Ukraine. All 283 passengers and 15 crew were killed.--
downed by a Buk surface-to-air missile
Shortly after the crash, Igor Girkin, leader of the Donbass
separatists, was reported to have posted on social media network
VKontakte, taking credit for downing a Ukrainian An-26.[157][158][159]
This news was repeated by channels in Russia, with LifeNews reporting "a
new victory of Donetsk self-defence who shot down yet another Ukrainian
airplane".[160] Russian news agency TASS also reported eyewitness
accounts claiming that the Donbass militia had just shot down a
Ukrainian An-26 military airplane with a missile.[161] The separatists
later denied involvement, saying they did not have the equipment or
training to hit a target at that altitude.[162][163][164] Russian media
also reported that Alexander Borodai called one of the Moscow media
managers 40 minutes after the crash, saying that "likely we shot down a
civilian airliner".[159]

Witnesses in Torez reported sightings on the day of the incident of what
appeared to be a Buk missile launcher,[165] and AP journalists reported
sightings of a Buk system in separatist controlled Snizhne.[55] The
witness reports backed up photographs and videos which had been posted
online, of the Buk launcher in rebel-held territory.[165]

The Russian Ministry of Defence has maintained that American claims of
separatist responsibility were "unfounded"

So, which is it Oleg?

Your state run media keeps putting out lies.

You aren't civilized.

The Atlanticism must recognize the fact that the 2014 coup in the
Ukraine was unlawful and anti-democratic in favor of a minority, and
the Atlanticism aggravates its karma while remaining in denial.

You did a crap, you must clean it out.

Maybe if you put that in all caps and say it three times
someone might believe it.

So I guess Saudi and Russia are no longer friends eh?
And what will the crashing oil prices do to Putin's
best friends in Venezuela and Iran?

Maybe soon Iran won't be able to afford all those
troops they send to Putin's other best friend
Chemical Assad.

Oil to hit the teens soon Oleg, so thanks for the
'foreign aid', paying us to buy your oil, to help us
through the impending recession.

Oh and Saudi is charging Europe almost $10 less
per barrel, say bye bye to that market soon.
