I don't really have an opinion regarding the MH17 event or Ron Paul, other than anyone knows somebody knows exactly what happened and why, and Paul does end up being closer to right than a lot of other stuffed shirts out there running their mouths about whatever.
If you want to know the real reason people don't really care, or won't care for more than a few days just look at how censored all of the images are, and it becomes obvious that they can't "unsee" something ,and if they don't look they never really have to pay attention or care...Nobody has to pay attention, but the raw images and footage made me angry that things like this actually ever happen at all....
People in the U.S. are basically sheltered from everything unless they actively seek to see things, or hear things, or smell things...see no....hear no....speak no.....no...no...no....
As usual I wander off topic as there are so many ways these things can go....

We shouldn't even be drawing any conclusions on what happened to the plane until we know exactly how it was damaged, what systems failed and led to the crash. It could just as easily have been a bomb on board the plane, a fighter jet shooting at it, or a missile launched from either side. Were the fuel tanks punctured, leading to fuel being sucked through the ventilation system and into the passenger compartment?
There will be evidence from the flight recorders, the remains of the passengers, and what remains of the aircraft frame, information on the mobile phones. It might have been possible that the mobile phones were able to upload pictures and videos to internet servers as the plane's altitude fell.

I found this ironic seeing that France is trying to sell an assault carrier to Russia and all the rest given the current state of affairs.

While western media outlets rush to repeat government propaganda on the event, there are a few things they will not report...
...They will not report that the crisis in Ukraine started late last year, when EU and US-supported protesters plotted the overthrow of the elected Ukrainian president, Viktor Yanukovych. Without US-sponsored “regime change,” it is unlikely that hundreds would have been killed in the unrest that followed. Nor would the Malaysian Airlines crash have happened...
...The media has reported that the plane must have been shot down by Russian forces or Russian-backed separatists, because the missile that reportedly brought down the plane was Russian made. But they will not report that the Ukrainian government also uses the exact same Russian-made weapons...
...They will not report that neither Russia nor the separatists in eastern Ukraine have anything to gain but everything to lose by shooting down a passenger liner full of civilians...
...They will not report that the Ukrainian government has much to gain by pinning the attack on Russia, and that the Ukrainian prime minister has already expressed his pleasure that Russia is being blamed for the attack...
...They will not report how similar this is to last summer’s US claim that the Assad government in Syria had used poison gas against civilians in Ghouta. Assad was also gaining the upper hand in his struggle with US-backed rebels and the US claimed that the attack came from Syrian government positions. Then, US claims led us to the brink of another war in the Middle East. At the last minute public opposition forced Obama to back down – and we have learned since then that US claims about the gas attack were false.

When i heard the news my mind immediately jumped to the false flag scenario we have all heard and to be honest i've still not made my mind up but Dr. Paul brings up some excellent points. The fact that none of these very logical questions or concerns has even been mentioned by the media tells volumes about political discourse in this country; the acceptable topics for debate are very tightly controlled from the top. We can argue fervently for hours pointing fingers at the 'other-side' all the while never seeing the big picture or the crux of the issue.
The dual-pronged attacks of divide and conquer and of controlling the acceptable sphere of debate continues to serve those in power very well.
Cheers!
