MOSCOW (AP) — A top pro-Russia rebel commander in eastern Ukraine has given a bizarre version of events surrounding the Malaysian jetliner crash — suggesting many of the victims may have died days before the plane took off.

The pro-rebel website Russkaya Vesna on Friday quoted Igor Girkin as saying he was told by people at the crash site that "a significant number of the bodies weren't fresh," adding that he was told they were drained of blood and reeked of decomposition.

This sounds like E01S02 from "Sherlock".
It´s kinda strange that it was again a plane from Malaysia Airlines. Their stocks have a worth of like 8 (€)cent, at first I thought this might be an economic thing. You know... conspiracy and so on.

Since there was a plane literally less than 2 minutes behind it on roughly the same route, i heavily doubt it.

Well thats just shows how retarded they really are, lol.

I mean these are the same people who allegedly believed the plane was carrying spies as it had no other legitimate reason to be there. If the intercepts are to be believed.

To all the people accusing the Dutch prime minister of inaction. First of all I like politicians who are showing restraint. It's hard to unsay or undo things you've said or done. Second, he sent the minister of foreign affairs to Ukraine to investigate the situation himself. He is there with a team of experts. What more do you want? Empty threats? Big words? And for God's sake let a man dress how he wants on his lunch break. Whatever happens you still need to eat and rest.

I'm normally not a fan of Rutte but I agree wholeheartedly with your post. This is how you should act in this situation.

The crash site of Malaysia Airlines Flight 17, which went down yesterday afternoon after being shot with a missile, is now being looted. This is not only causing issues for the investigation, but also for the families of the victims on board, who will now not be able to recover the lost property of the 298 dead passengers and crew.

After the crash, investigators were unable to get to the site quickly and rope it off to preserve evidence. This allowed armed separatists and locals to essentially raid the scene. Suitcases were removed from the wreckage and pillaged. The coldhearted looters stole a variety of personal possessions, but left behind some apparent undesirables: a Minnie Mouse lunchbox, a Winnie the Pooh stuffed animal, family photographs, and intact passports.

As for what they took, wallets and credit cards were a favorite. A photojournalist at the scene said, "There isn't a single cellphone, wallet with money or camera to be found in any handbag or on the bodies. It's like they all mysteriously disappeared overnight."

Dutch Prime Minister Rutte was pissed off about the moving of bodies, just called Putin to say that he's losing his chances to show the good will that he promised us yesterday.

I disagree. Where's the outrage, any form of emotion? One of the first duties of the dutch govt is to protect its citizens, that comes way before securing the sale of flower bulbs to russia, yet somehow the entire cabinet is nothing but passive and trying very hard not to upset anyone even a little.

When since were Dutch politicians expected to act like overblown hollywood style American politicians?

There's nothing to "protect". They are already dead. From an accident. Nobody from Ukraine is targetting the Dutch. And from what can be seen, he is doing everything short visiting the war zone or invasion to investigate and recover the bodies. What course of action would you propose?

The Dutch government may or may not be doing a good job but a gossip paparazzi photo of one guy isn't evidence either way, don't buy into that kind of "news."

What purpose exactly would that serve? Can you prove he is not protecting the dutch citizens, or is him dressed casual at lunch all you got as proof that he doesn't do enough?

I do understand that people are upset and angry (i already said earlier that these people over there get my blood boiling) - but what you people shout for is not just unrealistic but dumb. Sorry. It's proletic. If your foreign minister with a team is already flying down there, what else do you want him to send, the dutch military? Nukes?

Again. Be reasonable. Just because a person (even if he's the PM) has lunch in a fashion that you don't like, doesn't mean he's not doing whatever he realistically can to solve the issues at hand.

Actually Rutte is pretty much warning Putin that Russia is very close to losing any and all cooperation with the Netherlands and by a lesser extent the EU.

I dont give a shit about the clothing, but imagine the kind of tone you'd be hearing from a french/english/german PM, and how they would take initiative within the EU and NATO and try to get some form of pressure going. Rutte reduces himself to be a small politician of a small country who just stands by on the sidelines and waits for Merkel/Cameron to say something. We have good relations with the germans, the english and the french, how about some coalition building and some sanctions that really put the hurt on (lets include Shell while were at it for example).

Not demanding military action, although I wouldn't consider sending troops to secure the crash site out of line or anything, but some form of outrage, some sort of statement would be worthwhile. Instead of a decent prime minister we end up with a supermarket supervisor who just wants to keep selling as much as possible to the people that sent their mercenaries to cause havoc in another state.

You didn't watch the 17.45 press conference I reckon? He was very pissed off.

This incident reminds me of Korean Air Lines Flight 007 in some respects. A plane goes down via military action and a cover up ensues with vital evidence packed up and put in storage.

My deepest sympathies go too the people who lost their lives and their families

They wouldn't. Remember, there was germans and whatnot on that plane too. While i agree that the dutch were hit harder in terms of "magnitude of the tradegy", there's still dead people that aren't dutch. I may agree about saberrattling if it was a deliberate attack on the plane, but so far every single piece of "evidence" (well no such thing, don't know the english word for "Indizien") points to an accident. Who do you threaten for an accident? That happened above basically a fighting zone?

If anything, it's malaysian airlines, or better the european councilthing that deemed the space safe (apparently they ordered the plane to fly even lower) to fly. That's where anger should go.

It is out of line, wtf. If you send military personal to occupy space for however long into a foreign country, it's quite a big deal. Now the UN on the other hand, i mentioned it earlier, should have a unified "emergency-medevac-thingy" for stuff like this.

Since i'm not sure because it didn't interest me too much, there wasn't a statement of the dutch PM to this?
