What does the writer expect to happen? Is it expected that NATO tanks will smash into Smolensk, Bryansk, Kursk and other towns along Russia western border and race on to Moscow? The destruction of Malaysia Airlines flight MH17 and the deaths of all those people on board is a tragedy which must be investigated and where necessary those people responsible must be held to account. However, this consta...

As the world looks the other way. Malaysia Airlines MH17 G3 gate of Schiphol Airport i Readers are by now aware that on July 17, 2014, a Malaysia Airlines Boeing 777 flight MH17, crashed in eastern Ukraine, killing all 298 people on board. It has since been established that the most likely cause of the crash was a surface to air missile launched from within the pro-Russian area of eastern Ukraine and probably from pro-Russian rebels holding the area.

Sky News and BBC News have carried lengthy reports of the crash and analysis of surface-to-air missiles and those persons in eastern Ukraine using them. The front pages of all our newspapers have been full of stories, comment and analysis since last Thursday. It is as if all other stories or...

This latest piece of US duplicity criticises Russia for "arming rebels" when for over three years, (and still continuing today), the United States has been pouring weapons, ammunition, supplies and money into the so called Free Syrian Army and other rebel factions in Syria including the now much condemned ISIS, in their struggle against the Bashar al-Assad regime in Damascus.

But for the relatives of the 239 passengers and crew, the failure to retrieve a single piece of debris to date is excruciating. Kathy Marks, "Independent":Saturday 29 March 2014 "Tantalisingly close to finding the wreckage". Now what on earth does that mean? "Wreckage" is either there, or it isn't. Kathy Marks, "Independent" reporter and author of this piece of journalistic nonsense, joins what seems to be a growing trend amongst "journalists" of the "Independent" by writing stories using "s...
