Throwing around speculations and weak sources is not the same as debunking...it`s only thinking it is.
All the following submissions to be sent to the Dutch investigation team, at their request.
My name is Patrick Lancaster. I am a freelance video and photo journalist living in Donetsk. I was born in St. Louis Missouri USA. I have been in the Donbass region for almost ten months trying to share the facts that I see.
After being at the MH17 crash site so many times I have had heavy emotions about whether or not or when I should release my footage. I do not want to make things worse for the families.
Now I have been contacted by the Dutch government and ask to take part in the investigation. I will be giving my full support in helping find the truth and I will be releasing my unreleased footage to them and the public. I hope I do not cause any more pain to the families of the victims with this footage. My footage will be unedited and very GRAPHIC. In this article I am releasing my footage from the night of July, 17th, 2014, the day MH17 was shot down.

In this case in Ukraine putin is in fact responsible for it.
The 40-year-old, a naturalised Briton of Ukrainian descent, who served in Afghanistan and the Middle East, said Ukraine’s forces, made up largely of volunteers and conscripts, suffer great casualties because of frequent incidents of friendly fire and the mishandling of weapons.
“Six out of 10 casualties among the Ukrainian volunteers occur because of blue-on-blue shooting [the army term for friendly fire] and the inability to handle weapons,” said the man, who would give only his nom-de-guerre Saffron.

That doesn't make sense. According to you and others, that was the normal flight path for many domestic flights. Every 15 min I believe was mentioned here. Why would they just randomly pick that flight to shoot down?

Ask the rebels who thought it was a NATO bomber using the commercial flight path as cover. It makes more sense than shooting a commercial jet down with a ground support aircraft to create the illusion of an surface to air missile attack.

Well, if that's the case,why would they shoot down a NATO bomber? Ukraine isn't a member of NATO.
