Murder In The Sky: Malaysia Airlines Flight MH17
OP-ED
Julia Ioffe: The Russian public has a totally different understanding of what happened to Malaysia Airlines flight 17
Rescue workers carry a stretcher with a body past debris from the Boeing 777-200 Malaysia Airlines flight MH17 that is presumed to have been shot down in eastern Ukraine on July 19, killing all 298 passengers.
Did you know Malaysia Air Flight 17 was full of corpses when it took off from Amsterdam? Did you know that, for some darkly inexplicable reason, on July 17, MH17 moved off the standard flight path that it had taken every time before, and moved north, toward rebel-held areas outside Donetsk?
