Sorry I smell BS, why would Putin's plane fly though the same airspace the Malaysian airliner was shot down in 45 minutes later? The author seems like the stereo-typical conspiracy theorist American journalist.
This is where it helps to read the article, it clearly states that that report of Putin's plane intersecting the MH 17 flight came from Interfax- a mainstream Ukrainian news organization. He also presents this unconfirmed information as one of two scenarios for what little is known, it certainly doesn't appear that he is endorsing this scenario, however applying logic if it were relevant.
Paul Craig Roberts is the former Assistant Secretary to US Treasury. If you watch some of his interviews, he hardly comes across as a conspiracy theorist, but rather a credible, rational, objective, highly knowledgeable and intelligent perspective that provides a supportive voice for diplomacy and common sense.
Since this terrible tragedy, we have witnessed the mainstream media and our political elite shamelessly blaming Russia and Putin without providing a shred of credible evidence, just assertions and opinions as if it were holy truth. If they are so sure it was the "Russians" why not wait for an independent investigation to present their legal findings? Is that not how the legal system works? This goes so far beyond irresponsible, its completely reckless and exactly how major global conflicts start, we need to be smarter than that so we can continue to enjoy snowmobiling!!!
