Obama Points to Pro-Russia Separatists in Downing of Malaysian Airlines Plane -- New York Times
WASHINGTON — President Obama said Friday that the United States believed the Malaysia Airlines jetliner felled over eastern Ukraine was shot down by surface-to-air missiles from an area inside Ukraine that is controlled by Russian-backed separatists.
Mr. Obama’s remarks at the White House were the strongest public suggestions yet from the United States over who was responsible for the downing of the jetliner, which exploded, crashed and burned on Thursday on farmland in eastern Ukraine, killing all 298 people aboard.
Mr. Obama said the loss of life was an “outrage of unspeakable proportions” and a “global tragedy.” He vowed to investigate exactly what happened to end the lives of “men, women, children, infants who had nothing to do with the crisis” in that region. Mr. Obama also said that at least one American was among the dead.
“We are going to make sure the truth is out,” he said.

Why was this plane even going through a war zone? I heard it may have been diverted but for what reasons? And why would they send a plane through dangerous sky's? Is been well know of other air craft being downed or shot at in this area... What'sthe conspiracy theory on this..? Another reason to pour more bullets in the chamber...
The answers will eventually come out Becoolo980 .... but not today.

Obama's handlers must of prepped him today.
Yesterday he said MH17 "may" have been a tragedy.
"We are going to make sure the truth is out,” he said.
Well considering their track record on exposing the truth, I'm guessing whoever shot it down is sleeping pretty well.
