US will not show satellite photo of rocket launch on MH17

The United States refused to provide satellite prosecutors in the Netherlands with data on the launch of a rocket that shot down a passenger airliner performing flight MH2014 in 17. Then the plane Boeing-777 "Malaysian Airlines" was shot down by an unknown missile over the territory of Donetsk region.

Representatives of the Dutch court said today that the documents would not be declassified or attached to the case.



In 2014, the Netherlands prosecutor made a request to the US authorities. Amsterdam then asked the Americans to provide images from space, in which you can see the moment of the launch of the rocket that shot down a passenger plane in the Donbass. In response, the United States submitted a memorandum according to which the Dutch national counterterrorism attorney reviewed classified satellite photographs in confidentiality. From the series "We have photos, but we will not show them to you, since they are secret." By and large, this is an amazing precedent for investigating - to declare the presence of evidence without providing them, and at the same time rely on what their court will take as a basis.

And already this year, the Netherlands requested the photographs themselves, but was refused, as the presiding judge informed the participants in the court session.

It is difficult to understand that the secret may be in space images of Ukrainian territory six years ago. The only plausible answer is on the surface: such secrecy is connected with the US’s reluctance to disclose information about the true culprits of the tragedy, and instead blame Russia and the Donbass militia for the death of a passenger liner with civilians on board.

      Well, don't be so naive. So far, this method of "proof" has never left the United States sideways, so why won't it work now? Firstly, there is the famous Anglo-Saxon - "Hailey Likely", and secondly, the United States can always declare in court, especially in the European one, which is surprisingly selective, that they, the United States, believe that while the culprit (read Russia) has not proven his innocence, he will be considered guilty, period.

        Fred Westerbeck previously directly confirmed that the investigation has satellite images from the United States.

        - The JIT report mentions satellite images, which also confirm the shooting of the Buk from the Snezhnoye area. Is it about US satellite imagery? Did you manage to get them?

        - Yes, we have them. An employee of my office with access to intelligence labeled “top secret” and “state secret” saw and studied satellite data that the United States has.


        It is not yet known whether they will be declassified in court, but the news that the Dutch were supposedly denied access to the pictures is rather dubious.

        It is noted that satellite images, which show the launch of a Buk missile at a Boeing MH17, were shown to the Danish special services. Despite this, the data belonging to the United States will not be declassified and attached to the case. Instead, there will be a memorandum in the case detailing the details of the tragedy.
        A representative of the Netherlands prosecutor’s office was shown a photograph and allowed to compare it with the information set out in the memorandum. According to him, everything is described correctly

        The United States showed these pictures to special services and the representative of the Netherlands prosecutor's office and their findings will be attached to the case.

              Little of. It is a lie that Ukraine has no primary data. They had everything. The Dutch report shows the negotiations between air traffic controllers of Ukrainian Dnepropetrovsk and Russian Rostov-on-Don. Both controllers saw the mark MH17, and both began to fall apart. So both had primary radars, and they worked.

          An example where there are a lot of photos, labels and backs: everything personally. I don’t know if they tried vodka.
          The Netherlands Court of Appeal confirmed the right of the Russian state-owned company Soyuzplodoimport to use the Stolichnaya brand of vodka, Reuters reports. The court ruled that the Luxembourg-registered company Spirits International (part of the SPI group of Yuri Shefler) should stop selling vodka under the brand of the same name.

          In March 2015, a court ordered the SPI group of companies to transfer to Soyuzplodoimport the rights to vodka trademarks Stolichnaya and Moskovskaya in the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg. Brand ownership litigation took about 12 years.

          Spirits International changed the labeling of the bottles from Stolichnaya to Stoli, however, the Hague court ruled that the rights of Soyuzplodoimport were violated and introduced a ban on the commercialization of the Stoli brand. In January 2016, the Stolichnaya brand rights case was resumed in the United States.

        The situation is much worse - because of the bicolor on board, taken as a tricolor, an American plane rocketed a plane, taking off from Poland, two AWACS from the Czech Republic and Romania directed the rocket.
        The case of the investigation team is to destroy evidence, extend the case for a decade, and close after the statute of limitations.

          The story is geared towards changing the political regime in Moscow. Subsequent events confirm this. If the plan works, then the "investigation" version will never be refuted. Therefore, they pull and will pull the rubber.
          Tricolor on half of the planes in Europe. The likelihood that the Su-25 would be sent to shoot down the liner is minimal, besides, the Su-25 is practically unable to hit the liner exactly in the cockpit. To guarantee the downing of the liner in those conditions, most likely, explosives and striking elements of the Buk or the Su-27 fighter were used. But the fighter is too visible, it would be detected with a high probability.
          The Ukrainian authorities are puppet. Voloshin was most likely used "in the dark" or set up ("consumable material") to cover up the organizers of the terrorist attack. Perhaps he approached the liner to visually "control the process". He was even awarded (before his death).

            Voloshin was only supposed to identify the plane. Voloshin did not know the coloring of the plane of the Russian President, and took the red-blue stripes on a white background for a tricolor. After that, the MN-17 was taken 4 km north of the corridor. In order to avoid interference with blind (from a warhead) guidance. F-22, received a command, supersonic got closer to the aircraft and launched, from a distance of 100 km. The missile went on top of the plane, and exploded in front of the windshield.
            Then, drawings of the striking elements were received from Russia, and three years after the disaster, suitable ones were shown as evidence. Some. They were probably bought from lovers of rummaging around the landfills.

                As for the satellites, the Russian Defense Ministry has few of them, they can only monitor once every 5 hours. But the Americans at this time, the territory scanned 12 reconnaissance and 18 satellites of obscure purpose. Among 12 were with side-scan locators, infrared, optical, radio interceptors. That is, Americans are aware of what happened up to the 6D format, with a quarter-second storyboard.

      - declare the availability of evidence without providing them, and at the same time rely on what their court will take as a basis.

      Once Vasily Ivanovich went to England and returned a week later. Petka, who met the commander, froze in surprise: Chapaev was in an expensive suit and with a bunch of bags, of which large bills were sticking out.
      Coming out of a luxurious limousine, Chapaev blinked blissfully and lit a pipe. Petya, who did not understand anything, approached the commander and asked:
      - Vasily Ivanovich, but where did all this come from? We’ve been saving money for the whole division for ten years, so you can visit England!
      - Yes, nonsense, Petka, I just won the cards! - Chapaev answered casually.
      - Wow! But how?
      - Well, I came to England, and I was invited to the club. There all the men sat, drank and played cards. I took a closer look - it turned out they were playing "twenty-one"! I joined one company and began to play, looked at the cards, it turned out that I had 17. And the one sitting opposite said: “Gentlemen, I have 21!” I told him: "And show me!" And he replied: “Sir, we are in England, all gentlemen are here, and true gentlemen believe each other's word!” Here, Petka, I got so hurt, so hurt!

      Almost immediately after the catastrophe, your idea was voiced by usveterans.com, a sort of interconnected former Amer dark masters - the idea was expressed there: that if the authorities do not publish the claimed pictures, then they contradict the position of the authorities. Simple and explains everything.

                  First, at a public meeting, lawyers are provided with copies that do not have a neck (in this case, a rough photo). In some cases, the non-distribution of these copies is stipulated, then for publication a completely corrected version or description is submitted under the signature of the lawyers. HERE THAT WOULD FULLY APPROACH BECAUSE IT IS VISIBLE FROM WHERE THE Rocket was flying.
                  Then, in a closed session, the originals are presented, lawyers and experts can study them, but not make or copy them. In addition, a non-disclosure subscription is given.

                    Only the court is not in the States and they have nothing to do with it, the Dutch need to transfer the photo, that is, to withdraw from the country.
                    The Dutch want to present them publicly.
                    Or maybe they will do it again if lawyers and experts have access, although I can’t imagine how the Dutch lawyer will have access to the United States, except that through NATO, they showed them to the Dutch representative with access.
                    But there is another option - an expert with admission will look at the photo in the States, come to court and confirm with oath that the launch was there and there as an expert or witness, which is likely to happen.
                    Do not forget that the Dutch stated that they have several witnesses of the launch, so this photo is not an obligatory element of evidence.

                you're right, of course they are trying, the lower the better the shooting conditions. the smaller the angle of the lens, the smaller the surface area it captures and the higher the resolution of the image.
                but what is the likelihood that at the moment of launching the rocket the lens will be directed precisely at this point and the satellite will fly here?
                If we are talking about commercial shooting, this is not a problem, you ordered, they told you, okay, tomorrow at 16:00 the satellite will fly to the point you need, we will take it off.
                But here we were talking about a small area, because the satellite does not hang in place (except for geostationary ones at an altitude of 36000 km, it’s not the most convenient altitude for detailed shooting, if it’s not mass launches of ICBMs, of course)
                The lower the satellite and the narrower the field of view of the lens, the faster the desired point will fly by, but at the same time the highest resolution.
                and vice versa.

    The US refusal to provide a satellite image indicates one thing: the image does NOT confirm the downing of Boeing by the Russian Buk. Remember the shot down Ukrainian plane near Tehran, then the United States instantly (and did not delay for 6 years) presented a picture! But it is in vain that many think that there, in the American photograph, there is confirmation of the shooting down of Boeing by the Ukrainian Buk. In this sense, the picture is clean: there are no traces of ANY "Beeches" (although their batteries should be visible nearby ON THE EARTH). But the picture clearly shows Voloshin's plane, which shot down the Malaysian Boeing! I wrote about all this in an article that the editor of VO DID NOT MISS, and, referring to the decision of the editorial board, I GENERALLY banned publications on VO. Why? I do not know. A military secret! Conspiracy ... lol

    By type of work, I am calling to ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization), where not a single expert could answer him why the MH-17 case was transferred to the Dutch paramilitary organization, and not to the Malaysian authorities. It is likely that this is precisely the stumbling block of the case - that the investigation is carried out by those who are comfortable doing this. Why unnecessary? Here's the thing.

    I am sure that the crash of a Boeing over Ukraine is the embodiment of the Northwoods plan, presented in 1962 by Secretary of Defense Robert McNamert for consideration by John F. Kennedy. Its essence was that the American secret services had to liquidate a civilian liner over the United States, accusing the Cubans of the tragedy. This was necessary for the Americans as an excuse for a military invasion of Cuba.

    What if the United States really implemented a long-forgotten plan, but already in Ukraine? After all, it was precisely after the crash of the Boeing with all the ensuing consequences that the United States so eagerly started talking about anti-Russian sanctions and finally stopped any contacts with Russia.

    The theory is very interesting for discussion. Why invent new sabotage plans? Everything was invented before them (SBU with curators).

      no expert could answer him why the MN-17 case was transferred to the Dutch paramilitary organization, and not to the Malaysian authorities.

      one can only guess why they did not tell you about Appendix 13 to the Convention on Civil Aviation.

      5.1 The State of the scene of the event shall initiate an investigation into the circumstances of the accident and
      is responsible for conducting such an investigation, however, it may transfer in whole or in part
      conducting this investigation to another state or regional investigation organization
      accidents by mutual agreement and agreement.

      Note that there is no indication to whom the investigation can be specifically transferred.
      And in this case, the Netherlands was transferred to the investigation with the consent of, including Malaysia and with its participation.

    For the author! The secret may not be the picture itself or the pictures. The angle and the range from which and in which it is filmed may be secret. It may suddenly turn out that a thread is a scientific companion of nass who should look into the wilds of the cosmos.

    It is noted that satellite images, which show the launch of a Buk missile at a Boeing MH17, were shown to the Danish special services. Despite this, the data belonging to the United States will not be declassified and attached to the case. Instead, there will be a memorandum in the case detailing the details of the tragedy.
    A representative of the Netherlands prosecutor’s office was shown a photograph and allowed to compare it with the information set out in the memorandum. According to him, everything is described correctly

    The United States showed these pictures to special services and the representative of the Netherlands prosecutor's office and their findings will be attached to the case.

    "The United States has informed the Dutch prosecutor's office that they will not be able to provide declassified satellite images, which allegedly capture the moment the Buk missile was launched at a Malaysian Boeing (flight MH17 in the skies over Donbas in July 2014)," Presiding Judge Hendrik Steenhuis said during the meeting on this case.

    "The court asked whether it is possible to add to the case classified satellite images, which recorded the launch of the rocket, which were transferred to the Netherlands special services, and thus declassify them. The prosecutor's office replied that the request was sent to the United States back in 2014, in response a memorandum was received. . The Dutch national prosecutor for the fight against terrorism was able to verify the accuracy of this memorandum, "- said the judge.

    “The prosecutor concluded that the memorandum was supported by other sources with whom he consulted. He also requested that his findings be appended to the dossier. The US authorities have advised that they cannot provide additional data regarding the launch of the rocket in addition to this. Thus, additional information on the launch of the rocket was not attached to the dossier, "the presiding judge summed up.

    According to Steenhais, in this way, the prosecutor was able to familiarize himself with classified documents in confidence. But in fact, during an interview with Fred Westerbeke, it turned out that the Dutch did not have access to American satellite images, and could only get acquainted with the report, presumably based on these images!

    ***
    There is no such picture. Because it cannot be.
    The United States has a snapshot of a missile launch on another plane. On a military aircraft APU with the American CIA mercenaries. This is not a satellite image. And it is dangerous both for the US spy who made it, and for the investigation under MH17, since it disavows the whole process, like a screen for American military intervention in the affairs of Ukraine.
