As i see it, our early speculations about the crew conducting "scud diving" have been confirmed .
And this also totally discredits all the official theories being pushed that they only tried to do descent to the decision height and the bad Russkie ATC misled them in it and therefore is at fault.

Both these theories were propaganda from the very beginning. The crew did not do anything according to what ATC told them or anything that would resemble decision height procedure. They only started contemplating/attempting goaround when rapidly falling readings of RA spooked them.

Now, you have to consider why would such propaganda be pushed. Generally, in a situation like that the intention is to draw attention from other significant issues. And that issue would be????

p.s. Doing things "by the book" is sort of a heresy in Slavlands anyway, as, for example, it is the silly "norm" to drive 2 to 3 times the speed limit on bad quality residential zone roads. All attempts to change this situation generally amount to nothing. They tried to install photo radars and large number of them were demolished during first week of operation. Having small kids, this situation pisses me off to no end but, the only realistic way to put an end to it would be to start sniping the f***ers. A few weeks ago one "organ donor" was doing >200km/h on residential road nearby. The silly cops tried to block him, and obviously he took them out tearing their little disco wagon in half.

But still, there are those who know how to do it and get away with it and those who don't. A politician gets used to have a "miracle" pilot who can get away with anything. He then tries to go one crazy bridge too many, has an argument with the pilot, gets rid of the "miracle" pilot, and gets himself a "nice" pilot expecting him to be both crazy miracle competent and obedient. And the result is…

But, "miracle" pilots happen not only in Poland or Russia. Here is an American B52 pilot performing his last miracle show:
