Volgens mij zie ik George W. Bush daar in een F16!
Maar ff serieus, ik hoop dat dit niet het onomstotelijke bewijs is dat het Oekraïens/VS kamp voor ogen heeft om ons te overtuigen?
Dat hoop ik toch ook niet, dit kan ik zelf ook wel fabriceren.

Only infrared spy satellite able to see Malaysian Boeing crash - expert
MOSCOW. July 22 (Interfax-AVN) - Only an infrared reconnaissance satellite can help clarify the circumstances under which the Malaysia Airlines Boeing 777 crashed in Ukraine. A regular remote sensing satellite will be useless, a source in the Russian space surveillance system told Interfax-AVN.
"Remote sensing satellites, dozens of which have been deployed in space, are mostly tasked to film the earth's surface, infrastructure and slow moving objects. They are not equipped to film rapidly moving objects, especially if these objects are maneuvering," the source said on the condition of anonymity.
"Images of southeastern Ukraine might have been taken on that day on the orders from a commercial or state company but it is practically unrealistic that every filming condition was synchronized and the images depicted the Malaysian Boeing at the crash moment," he said.
Infrared satellites are different, the expert noted. The Russian Defense Ministry spoke yesterday about such U.S. satellites, which were above Ukraine at the crash moment.
"The satellite might have detected in the infrared band the launch of a surface-to-air missile, same as the flight of a Ukrainian assault aircraft near the Boeing and the launch of an air-to-air missile. However, the U.S. side has not presented the satellite data to the general public," the expert said.
Regular remote sensing means operating in the optical band are practically incapable of detecting the flight of a commercial jetliner, its being accompanied by an assault jet, and the launch of an air-to-air missile or a surface-to-air missile, he continued.
"True, satellites operating in the optical band may accidentally discover a plane flying above a concrete territory but chances that all the pieces will fall into place are one to a thousand or even a million. Images can be taken in the cloudless skies, and it was cloudy in southeastern Ukraine on the day of the crash; besides, the satellite must be tasked to film a concrete area, and the filming is done only from a certain angle and over a certain space. Besides, the satellite is not hovering above the required spot but passes it one or several times a day depending on its orbit," the source in the Russian space surveillance system said.
Hier wordt dus aangegeven dat de kans dat er op gewone satellietbeelden iets te zien is erg klein is en dat een raketlancering alleen goed te zien is op infrarood. Klinkt best aannemelijk.
