D. Heyes, July 24 2014 (NaturalNews) The narrative from the U.S. government and a number of those in Europe is that Russia is responsible, in some way, for the shoot-down recently of Malaysia Air Flight MH17 over eastern Ukraine.
And there are a number of indicators and analyses from noted experts that would seem to indicate that that is a valid conclusion. Only, so far anyway, the U.S. government has not confirmed that conclusion, or at least, it is not saying so publicly.
