Those being accused of mass murder have a significant interest in receiving the data, just as an individual accused of a crime has the legal and moral right to both see and examine the evidence being used to accuse him or her.

Sure - in a court of law and not a court of public opinion.

You know as well as i do what those vested interests are, and the investigators are going to be subject to the whims and will of their respective governments, like it or not.
The investigators will do and say what they are ordered to do and say by their intelligence agencies and their superiors.
If this does turn out to be a set up ala false flag, and you believe in such a situation they won't be subject to such manoeuvrings, you are only fooling yourself.

You dismiss the moral right to challenge accusers and have equal access to information that would clear or condemn you because this isn't taking place in some court room?
That's very weak. If the accusation is sound and based on truth and valid evidence, and no tampering of that evidence is in the offing, then there is no legal or moral argument existing to deny the sharing of such evidence - should it exist.
Unless of course, there is zero confidence in the evidence in the first place and it's all just so much hot air...again.

Just like Pro Russian rebels when they get their orders from Moscow.

As the poll shows, support for Putin among the Russian public is not dying down. However, the real source of power in Russia is the oligarchs, and new reports indicates that they’re tiring of Putin’s standoff with the west, which is hitting them the hardest.
According to the German magazine Der Spiegel [the original story is in German, but an English language report can be found here), German intelligence chief Gerhard Schindler has told the Bundestag that a power struggle is underway between the Kremlin and Russian business leaders.
“According to German intelligence it is quite possible that some of the oligarchs who are worried by European Union sanctions will soon start putting economic interests above political concerns and try to put the brakes on Putin,” Der Spiegel reported.
The German report came out before the new round of sanctions were announced. Many in Russia were assuming that Germany and the rest of Europe would not impose new penalties because of the close ties between the two. Yesterday, this assumption turned out to be false.
"The ruble is losing value, Russia's budget deficit is growing and its economic development is bad. Even the Russian president sees this," Germany Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaüble told Der Spiegel. “Nobody is Moscow should start thinking that Russia can win with its approach."
Germany’s business and political leaders are lining up to support a tougher stance on Russia, giving Chancellor Angela Merkel critical backing as she pushes her European Union counterparts to expand sanctions.
Industry group chiefs and lawmakers from Merkel’s governing coalition are expressing the need for deeper measures targeting Russia’s economy following the downing of Malaysia Air (MAS) Flight 17. Public opinion has also shifted, with a majority of Germans now favoring wider actions against Russia.
“This shooting down of a plane is really a turning point,” Martin Wansleben, head of the Association of German Chambers of Commerce and Industry, said in an interview. “It’s such an outrageous act that one must give a clear response.”

Explosive decompression caused by a missile strike.
Nonsense. The black box showed there was explosive decompression. How could the black box show the decompression was caused by a missile? It can't.
If it can, I am sure you are going to explain how, in your next post.
Since both Russia and the patriots fighting Kiev have both been accused by Obama, it then gives them the right to examine that supposed evidence, especially if the accuser is not trustworthy, having been discovered to have been 'economical with the truth' over various other actions that lead to and almost lead to war and or military action.

OK I'll say it, IMO this was done by Kiev as a false flag. The US seems set on war with Russia and the neo-nazi's in Kiev seem accommodating.
Just my 2 cents.
