I wouldn't be so quick to see who can leverage this situation. I am sure in most of the western worlds history that Russia can find something similar to point at.

I have a sneaking suspicion that all similar missiles have been removed from the area or at minimum that there has to be a Kremlin (Sorry...I meant Moscow) approval to let one off the leash and high up approval at that.

President Obama said today the burden is on Russia to ensure that separatists stop tampering with evidence at the crash site in eastern Ukraine.

If Russia continues to back the separatists, costs to Russia will only continue to increase, Obama said. Now is the time for Russian President Vladimir Putin to "Pivot away" From his strategy in Ukraine, he said.
