The Australian Broadcasting Corporation appears to have colluded with the Australian Defence Ministry to launch an information warfare attack on Russia under the pretext of responding to Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Zakharova's scathing comments condemning the island nation for the war crimes that Canberra itself recently concluded that its soldiers carried out in Afghanistan, which also served to mislead the Australian public and therefore violated the publicly financed media outlet's first editorial standard to “maintain [its] independence and integrity”.

Surprisingly, one of the so-called witness as designated by the Dutch government and JIT team, Sergey Dubinsky, contacted the film crew of Bonanza Media to speak up. He argued that most journalists are not telling the truth and that‘s why he is fed up with the allegations.

The MH-17 trial started on March 9 in a heavily guarded judicial complex in Scheveningen, The Hague. The process is being followed by a lot of media attention.

The MH17 tragedy is back in the news after the start of this case's show trial in the Netherlands, which isn't about bringing the alleged perpetrators to justice or helping the victims' families find closure, but waging information warfare against Russia in an attempt to "conclusively" pin the blame for this crime on its supposed proxies in Eastern Ukraine so as to ruin President Putin's international reputation once and for all.

In the run-up to the MH17 trial, the propaganda machine is running at full speed. On 9 March, 2020, the trial will be held in the judicial complex in Schiphol Airport. The four suspects, according to the JIT (Joint Investigation Team), should appear and be tried. The problem for the Dutch court is that the four suspects will most likely not appear, making this a show process for the relatives of the victims of the MH-17 disaster.

The former leader of D’66, Alexander Pechtold, is who started the Russphobia trend in the Netherlands, back in 2018. In 2018, the then-Dutch Foreign Minister Halbe Zijlstra (VVD Party) admitted on national TV that he lied about his visit to President Putin’s dacha in 2006. For more than 12 years, he claimed that President Putin wanted to create a “greater Russia”. The former head of Shell in the Netherlands, Jeroen van der Veer, debunked Halbe Zijlstra and tolled the Dutch Media, saying in an interview that Halbe Zijlstra wasn’t even present back then in 2006 in President Putin’s dacha.

Iran should be commended for ceasing all disinformation activities aimed at covering up its role in the UIA-752 tragedy, but it didn't do this just because it's the right thing to do, but because it realized that its international reputation would continue to suffer if it hadn't reversed its narrative course when it did and it also wanted to avoid the imposition of further sanctions against it for what happened.

This is one of those extremely rare times that I'm writing an article in the first-person in order to take responsibility for (mostly) getting my analysis about UIA-752's downing wrong, explain the flawed thought process that went into yesterday's piece on the topic, and challenge all of my Alt-Media peers -- both fellow analysts and casual commentators alike -- to also take responsibility for their words over the past few days if they too were ultimately proven wrong by the latest twist in this tragedy.

Powerful forces are at work politicizing the UIA-752 tragedy in Tehran that transpired Wednesday morning in order to sow the seeds of doubt about Iran's peaceful intentions and strongly imply that Russia irresponsibly played a role by selling the missiles to it that Kiev speculates might have been responsible for what happened, which allows the West to kill two birds with one stone by casting aspersions on its two rivals' international reputations with a single incident.

The latest MH17 documentary, "MH-17: In Search Of Truth" by Ukrainian SBU whistleblower Vasily Prozorov, shares some shocking truths about that tragedy which strongly make the case that the UK conspired with Kiev to take down that civilian aircraft as part of a preplanned Hybrid War plot against the Donbas rebels that was also intended to frame Russia as the West's main geopolitical competitor.

Five years ago on July 17, 2014, Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 was blown out of the sky while flying over eastern Ukraine. It was on its way from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. All 283 passengers and 15 crew members on board were killed. It was immediately claimed that Russia was responsible, something that Russia vehemently denies. Much has been written and argued, but now the team of Bonanza Media made some independent research that resulted in the documentary; Call For Justice MH17, which was shown on the 26th October 2019 in The Hague, Netherlands
