The intelligence officials were cautious in their assessment, noting that while the Russians have been arming separatists in eastern Ukraine, the U.S. had no direct evidence that the missile used to shoot down the passenger jet came from Russia.
The officials briefed reporters Tuesday under ground rules that their names not be used in discussing intelligence related to last week's air disaster, which killed 298 people.

The plane was likely shot down by an SA-11 surface-to-air missile fired by Russian-backed separatists in eastern Ukraine, the intelligence officials said, citing intercepts, satellite photos and social media postings by separatists, some of which have been authenticated by U.S. experts.  Read more >>

THIS 200ft wide object 300ft below the Baltic, with its ‘staircase leading to a dark hole’ has baffled oceanographers since its discovery in 2012 By KATIE MANSFIELD An Ocean X interpretation of what the Baltic Sea Anomaly may look like based on their data ( Credit: youtube) Now explorers believe they are one step closer to discovering the truth behind the mysterious 140,000-year-old Baltic Sea Anomaly.

Credit: express.co.uk US SECRETARY of State John Kerry visited Antarctica to examine the remains of a secret Nazi UFO base, it has extraordinarily been claimed. By JON AUSTIN Kerry visited the frozen continent last month, officially to highlight the effects of climate change, but  conspiracy theorists  bizarrely claim it was to examine “Nazi UFO bases.” The madcap claim stems back to earlier conspiracy theories, one being that Adolf Hitler did not commit suicide in his Berlin bunker in May 1945, but escaped in a submarine to a secret base in Antarctica.  The other is astonishingly that the Nazis shared secret Antarctic  UFO  bases with reptilian alien species in the run up to WWII, where they experimented with flying saucer technology. Now, after the Kerry visit, which conspiracy theorists suggest was to view these bases, it is being claimed that a Nazi UFO base is visible in images of the Antarctic taken by NASA.   Read more >> Source:  ht
