It’s Now as Obvious as the Nose on Your Face that the MH17 Shootdown was a False Flag Executed by Elements of Ukrainian Intelligence, Military, and Air Traffic Control

First, read this, published a day after the shoot down of MH17 on July 17th, 2014:

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2014/07/18/ukraine-malaysia-ai...

So, within several hours of the tragedy, Ukrainian intelligence (SBU) held a press conference in which they released an edited audio tape of a noted rebel commander, Igor Bezler, which they interpreted as Bezler reporting the shoot down of MH17:

Igor Bezler: We have just shot down a plane. Group Minera. It fell down beyond Yenakievo (Donetsk Oblast).
Geranin: Pilots. Where are the pilots?
IB: Gone to search for and photograph the plane. It's smoking.
VG: How many minutes ago?
IB: About 30 minutes ago.

The SBU then followed up by claiming that, 40 minutes later, a second group of rebels was taped quite clearly describing the aftermath of MH17:

"Major": These are Chernukhin folks who shot down the plane. From the Chernukhin checkpoint. Those Cossacks who are based in Chernukhino.
"Greek": Yes, Major.
"Major": The plane fell apart in the air. In the area of Petropavlovskaya mine. The first "200" (code word for dead person). We have found the first "200." A civilian.
"Greek": Well, what do you have there?
"Major": In short, it was 100 per cent a passenger (civilian) aircraft.
"Greek": Are many people there?
"Major": Holy sh__t! The debris fell right into the yards (of homes).
"Greek": What kind of aircraft?
"Major": I haven't ascertained this. I haven't been to the main site. I am only surveying the scene where the first bodies fell. There are the remains of internal brackets, seats and bodies.
"Greek": Is there anything left of the weapon?
"Major": Absolutely nothing. Civilian items, medicinal stuff, towels, toilet paper.
"Greek": Are there documents?
"Major": Yes, of one Indonesian student. From a university in Thompson.

Then a third taped conversation is appended:

Militant: Regarding the plane shot down in the area of Snizhne-Torez. It's a civilian one. Fell down near Grabove. There are lots of corpses of women and children. The Cossacks are out there looking at all this.
They say on TV it's AN-26 transport plane, but they say it's written Malaysia Airlines on the plane. What was it doing on Ukraine's territory?
Rebel Commander Kozitsin: That means they were carrying spies. They shouldn't be (expletive) flying. There is a war going on.

Nailed the rebels dead to rights, right?

Not quite.

We have subsequently learned, from an article by Christelle Neant on the Hague Times website, that the tape of Bezler, taking credit for a shoot down, was made about a month BEFORE the M17 shootdown, and he was referring to a well-documented rebel shoot down of a Ukrainian SU-25 military jet in a region (Enakievo) near to where MH17 later came down.

https://thehaguetimes.com/2020/08/12/the-bezler-phone-tape-published-by-...

In a more complete version of the taped Bezler conversation, which has recently become available, Bezler states:

We just shot down a plane. The group of “Miner”. It fell behind Enakievo. I went…
– Pilots? Where are the pilots?
– We went to look for and photograph the downed plane. It smokes…
– How many minutes ago?
– Well, about 30 minutes ago.
– About half an hour ago, right? Which kind? Sukhoi again?
– Yes, Sukhoi.”

If we examine Wikipedia's entry on Ukrainian military planes shot down by the rebels, it is clear that the shoot down Bezler was referring to occurred around June 14th, and this was indeed the first Sukhoi which the Donbass rebels had managed to down. They also shot down Sukhois on June 19 and July 16, but these were near towns 728 km (Yampil) and 74 km (Amrosiivaka) from Evakievo, respectively, and 748 km and 68 km from the MH17 site. Enakievo is about 20 km from the MH17 site.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Ukrainian_aircraft_losses_during_t...

The downed jet had just dropped cluster munitions on a police station in the nearby town of Golovka.

https://tass.com/world/736052

The Hague Times article presents evidence that the Bezler tape had been truncated by the SBU to remove his claim that he had shot down a Sukhoi, so as to leave the impression that Bezler had been responsible for the MH17 shootdown. In addition, the article makes the important point that Bezler’s interlocuter wouldn’t have talked about “finding the pilots” unless they had shot down a military plane from which the pilots could have ejected.

Evidently, the SBU had knowingly defrauded the international community by claiming that the Bezler tape was contemporaneous with the MH17 tragedy.

Here are 2 possible interpretations. One is that Ukrainian forces were entirely blameless, but, presumably out of animosity for the rebels, had dug up the Bezler tape, altered it maliciously, spliced it with a couple of other tapes that had actually been obtained after the MH17 shootdown, and presented them within a press conference within several hours of the tragedy. Damned fast work, I would say! And leaving unexplained why, if Ukraine’s forces had indeed been blameless, they would produce phony evidence, when real evidence would lead to the actual perpetrators, and lying could impair Ukraine’s credibility.

Here’s what I think is a much more credible interpretation, that makes intelligible several previously unexplained details: The Ukrainian SBU obtained that tape of Bezler on June 14th, and it occurred to them that they could use it to set up a false flag against the rebels. They pulled off their plan by collaborating with the Ukrainian military and air traffic control. After selecting MH17 for butchery, air traffic control in Kiev chose to alter the traditional route of the airliner, sending it right over the war zone – the air space of which Ukraine had unaccountably failed to seal off – near where Bezler’s troops were located. Ukraine has never offered any explanation as to why this bizarre and dangerous change was made in MH17’s itinerary. And, according to the BBC, the SBU "confiscated recordings of conversations between Ukrainian air traffic control officers and the crew of the doomed airliner, a source in Kiev has told Interfax news agency.”

https://21stcenturywire.com/2014/07/25/mh17-verdict-real-evidence-points...

The conspirators concurrently had arranged for the perpetrators of the shoot down to be in position to take out MH17. It’s still not clear whether Ukrainian fighter jets, or a BUK on the ground – or both – were employed for the kill. In any case, when MH17 came down, the SBU taped the response of rebels on the ground, appended this to the already prepared Bezler tape, and presented this in a press conference as documentary evidence that Bezler’s rebels were responsible. They could execute this quickly, because it was all pre-planned.

Why Bezler, and why a Malaysian plane? I’ve read that Ukranian forces had a particular hatred for Bezler. And, as to Malaysia, it had recently hosted an international war crimes trial in which both Bush and Blair had been convicted.

https://readersupportednews.org/news-section2/310-14/8560-bush-blair-gui...

For which reason the Western Deep State has a particular hatred for Malaysia. Were Western intelligence agencies in on this plot? Both Ukraine and NATO wanted an excuse to impose major sanctions on Russia. The MH17 incident, immediately blamed on Russia by Western media and intelligence services, provided the perfect excuse for this – and the sanctions were implemented.

I remain agnostic as to whether Western intelligence was in on the plot – but this author maintains that two British intelligence agents had come to Ukraine to participate in the preparations:

https://geopolitics.co/2020/07/04/ex-sbu-operative-exposes-deep-state-st...

It’s telling that the link to the author’s documentary on this issue DOES NOT WORK. Gosh, who woudda ever thunk it?!

The SBU false flag scenario I have outlined is particularly persuasive, because it makes sense of several key facts that previously were inexplicable. In fact, everything adds up nicely. And that’s excellent reason to believe it is true.

One wonders whether the then American Viceroy of Ukraine, Joe Biden, was aware of the plot. Don't hold your breath while waiting to find out.

Could our ally Ukraine, possibly with the knowledge and approval of Western intelligence, have intentionally murdered nearly three hundred civilians to achieve a geopolitical objective? For a long while, I resisted this horrible conclusion. But now I feel it is ineluctable.

at Russia as I wrote my diary today.

Significant text below the linked nonworking documentary video. Interesting read. I guess the lives lost could be called collateral damage, or is that term only valid if we know the US was definitively involved?

The crash of Malaysian Boeing-777 over Donbass can be called the biggest and possibly the most successful and cynical campaign of Ukrainian and British special services, launched to influence the international community and leaders of foreign countries.
...
This provocation allowed Ukraine and its western patrons to justify sanctions against Russia. On the other hand, they failed to achieve all goals of this operation. As far as I know, Western countries planned to use the tragedy to bring their troops to the territory of Ukraine. Luckily, this has never happened.

State hackers

In recent years, regular hacking units have been created in the Security Service and the Armed forces of Ukraine with the support of the NATO countries. They transferred about one million euros for this purpose from 2017 to 2019.

For example, it is well known for January, 2018 the Situation Center for Cyber Security was established in the SBU’s Department of Counterintelligence and Cyber Security. It was established with the money of the Ukraine-NATO Trust Fund. Later, regional cyber centers have been formed in Sumy, Dnepr and Odessa on the basis of the SBU regional directorates’ cyber departments.
...
Czech Republic, Konev, COVID-19 and Ukrainian hackers

In 2020, U.S. and Ukrainian security services conducted an operation to influence public opinion and the military-political leadership of Europe through hacking attacks on the Czech Ministry of Health and hospitals involved in the fight against coronavirus. Ukrainian traces were first indicated in the publication by the Moscow Komomolets.
...
Hacking Burisma. Attack that didn’t happen

Similarly, Ukrainian security services and their hackers have become embroiled in Americans domestic political games.

In January 2020, the little-known Area 1 IT company of American origin published a short report about how hackers tried to access computers of Ukrainian Burisma gas production company. Russia was appointed responsible for the cyber attack. The entire evidence, as usual, was only made up around the Russians use to do so, and only Russian hackers necessarily needed Hunter Biden compromised. Why should Burisma computers have discrediting evidence to a son of the ex-VP of the U.S.? Read about it in one of my previous investigations here.

I focused some of my own research during that period on the fate of Malaysia Air (The safest airline in the world) after the War Crimes tribunal. MH17 was only the second in a series of inexplicable, rapid-fire air catastrophes that befell Malaysia. Their prized, 64 year old national airline folded within a year.

As for MH17, I saw only two smoking guns, initially:

1. Bellingcat was heavily involved in evidence gathering.

2. The US refused to produce any photographic evidence of the shootdown from their geosynchronous spy satellites hovering above Ukraine.

That's pretty much all I needed to sort it out, initially. In the strange investigations that followed, from which Malaysia was banned, no physical evidence was produced that identified the shooter. Accuasions were made that were always evidence-free, which is characteristic of US involvement. There was also the cui bono solution to consider. In this case it was most compelling.

Moving the MH17 flightpath over this part of Ukraine has never been explained.

There was a report that Putin was following the same flight path 17 minutes earlier, on a return trip from a BRICS Summit in South America. Russia's Presidential jet and Malaysia Air were painted blue in similar patterns.

@Pluto's Republic The great Robert Parry and Ray McGovern were all over this from the very first. The loss of Parry has no doubt greatly hampered our understanding of the situation.

Yes, the Putin plane scenario has always been an alternative explanation. But the fact that MH17 was routed directly over Bezler's territory, with no explanation offered, makes me suspect that it was the real target.

that were on their way to an AIDS forum? I remember reading something about it at the time. And look we can add this scandal to Obama’s tan suit scandal. This is what people say when they insist that Obama’s tenure was scandal free except that he wore a tan suit.

Which AIPAC/MIC/pharma/bank bought politician are you going to vote for? Don’t be surprised when nothing changes.

The ask about the pilots was a dead giveaway. After the Maidan Coup Ukraine became a US client state, as should be obvious from Biden's activities, serving as chair on a Ukrainian government committee. As a client state the CIA and the State Department had significant presence in Ukraine before and especially after. This coup was enormous from the US perspective, as separating Ukraine from its cultural brother Russia was always seen as a critical step to eliminating Russia as a world power. For Russia the Western part of Ukraine, around Lviv, was always a problem as they were virulent Nazis and Russians have zero tolerance for Nazis after WWII and their loss of 27 million people. However, this was no problem for the US, the goal of damaging Russia was more than enough of an excuse.

Ukrainian involvement was always suspect, as they had an inventory of BUK SAMs and they rerouted MH17 directly over the Donbass war zone. Nonetheless they were invited to be part of the investigation team and Russia was not. The Dutch team refused any evidence from Russia, which was complete and damning of the Ukrainians, including investigations by the company who manufactured the missles, concluding that it must have been a Ukrainian BUK, not a Russian BUK, and that it was fired from territory occupied by Ukrainian forces. This project, false flag, was a gift to the US, and in return the neofascists in Kiev expected the US to hurt Russia at least in world opinion and hopefully more. They also had planned to get NATO troops directly into the Donbass region to "protect the crash site" and potentially enter the civil war on the side of Ukraine. That didn't work and I can only imagine the conversations between President Putin and other world leaders.
Russians are very patient in regards to Ukraine, maybe shockingly patient. I would not interpret that as a sign of weakness. Russians believe that Ukraine and Russia will reunite as brothers. After all they both have many many relatives in the other country and Ukrainians speak Russian, and are slavs and adhere to the Russian Orthodox religion. The Western part of Ukraine is very different and is referred to as Galacia. Much of the territory was part of Hungary, Poland and other countries. They are the home of the most rabid neo nazis in Europe. They fought with Hitler, until even Hitler could not stomach them. Ukraine post Soviet breakup was always a delicate political balance, but it worked. Nonetheless corruption kept Ukraine from economic development. During the Soviet era Ukraine was the most prosperous republics. At the time of the coup Ukraine had 1/3 of the GDP per capita as Russia. Ukraine was a disaster, ripe for a US engineered color revolution. This will pass though as there is no way that the West will make the commitment to economic development, more likely austerity. And, it is inconceivable that West will try to fix the corruption, after all, Joe Biden was knee deep in it and extracted millions for his son, Hunter.

Capitalism has always been the rule of the people by the oligarchs. You only have two choices, eliminate them or restrict their power.

@The Wizard Thanks for those fine insights! The so-called "investigation" of MH17 by the JIT has been a kangaroo court from the very first - in which one of the chief suspects, Ukraine, was granted veto power over any conclusoins reached. As far as I am concerned, these "investigators" should be considered accomplices-after-the-fact to mass murder.

@The Wizard

They also had planned to get NATO troops directly into the Donbass region

But I bet that he will lose all of it NATO puts troops there. He has watched as they keep adding more in Poland and other countries that border Russia. Except that he has built up his defense arsenal bigly.

It’ll be interesting to see what Putin does in Belarus. The two have been talking recently and I think they have come to an agreement.
