Putin and Russia showing weakness MH17

The fact that Putin cannot secure the site of theMH17 crash site tells us that he is much weaker than he would like us to believe.

Yes he has been supporting the rebels in Ukraine but now he has lost control.

Clearly made a big mistake in letting anti aircraft missiles into the area and allowing local commander to order their use. They are Russian.

Do the civilized thing Mr Putin and ensure proper control of the crash site, as you would if it were on Russian soil.

Or does Putin have some other "long game" he is playing with the EU and USA. Dangerous.

Putin, Flight MH17, EU.

What an awful tragedy for the passengers on Flight MH17 and their families. My heart goes out to them.

Putin allowed the Russian missiles to be present in the area from which they were fired and knew it was just a matter of time before a passing civilian airliner would be brought down. 

What is his long game toward Ukraine and the EU.

The European air traffic authorities should have known better than to allow flights to route over a war zone which had all ready shot down aircraft recently. How naive could the people be who made such a decision.

Hamas leadership

Israel is a bully and over reacts to any criticism toward its action and policies with respect to the Palestinians. Land grabs are immoral.

Hamas leadership do not seem to care about the lives of those they wish to lead. They could so easily stop the Israeli killing of the Palestinians by ceasing the firing of rockets at civilians. 

Do they want Dead Palestinians to be Martyrs? A dead person has no life at all. This is no way to build a Nation.

Hamas should take the moral high ground... and look like truly strong leaders who put their people first.
