surely the nail in the coffin is the tweet by the rebels claiming to have shot down an aircraft..?
coming from the same account they have tweeted from for months, and then deleted soon after it became apparent they had messed up.
you can bet twitter has had a pretty close look at that account for any tampering and would be screaming to high heaven if they knew anything
in regards to the above "news article" alex jones could make a conspiracy out of me going to the grocery store. completely non credible
