Thoughts on the accusations of Russians regarding the 2014 Malaysian Airlines jetliner

Russia(ns) did not provide the hardware to shoot down commercial aircraft.  They would have provided anti-aircraft weapons only to shoot down already occuring flights of military aircraft in civil warfare resulting after repression by the central government which had been installed in a US backed coup.

Meanwhile, this US-selected central post-coup government of Ukraine approved a civilian flight through this war zone, as did the carrier, as did European government authorities.

By financing the coup in Yugoslavia, and by approving a flight to go through a war zone there, western societies have no moral authority here, and appear at least as the greater villans.

The original claims made at the time do not seem to have evolved.  Never has the west included any context.
