It's easy to cover your tracks, don't post shoot down videos on Facebook, or supply and weapon inventories.

I don't know how this could even be considered 'tracks', it's strategic information that should never have been posted in the first place. (Assuming the rebels are running a military operation in hopes of gaining control of territory)

Also, if the information wasn't suppressed it would still be just as popular. Do you really think no one was going to check the Rebel Leaders VK? The event was already international news, and would fill headlines for the next week, there is no way that suppressing the information made it more widely known.



It is pretty clear if you listen to nterviews, that the pro-russian rebels are mostly morons. With friends like that who needs enemies.


Yeah, no kidding they should be on America's Dumbest Criminals.


If you'd follow the story from the very beginning, you'd understand why those "we have Buk" posts were made.



Well, Russia's dumbest. Putin's stooges really fucked up on this one.
