MALAYSIAN AIRLINER SHOT DOWN IN UKRAINE

The story we're told by politicians is that the rebels in E.Ukraine were given a Buk anti-aircraft missile by the Russians &used it to down the airliner. I can't see why the rebels would have needed a Buk,which is designed to shoot down high flying B52s. Rebels were not under attack by B52s,but by much smaller ground attack planes.The Buk is a very large rocket which leaves a conspicuous trail of smoke when it goes up.This might hang around for 15mins or more,yet nobody saw it going up,& no one found the rocket's tail section,which should have fallen back to earth.
What witnesses did see,however, was a large plane,the airliner,followed by a much smaller mystery aircraft. A civilian worker at a Kiev-controlled airfield said he saw a Sukhoi25 ground attack fighter take off carrying air-to-air missiles & return 30mins later without them.The witness said the pilot,Capt.Vladislav Voloshin, seemed shaken & agitated,muttering to himself. A year later this pilot committed suicide.
The Kiev government said that no missions were flown that day,& anyway the Su-25 couldn't fly above 17000ft,far below the airliner's altitude of 30,000ft.What nonsense! A WW2 Hurricane could reach 34,000ft in 1941,& was far from being our best fighter.A German aviation expert examined parts of the wreckage on TV & said some holes were made by 30mm cannon.The Su-25 has a 30mm cannon.Why would a Ukrainian Airforce pilot (or anyone else,for that matter) shoot down an airliner? Perhaps he thought it was a transport bringing weapons &supplies to the rebels.
The theory that best fits the facts is that a Kiev fighter shot down the airliner for reasons unknown.This would explain why the Kiev govt. lied about it & immediately launched an offensive in the area which prevented an investigation team reaching the site. Kiev & its allies have been unaccountably dragging their feet regarding the investigation ever since.
