There's a theory that the rebels could have stolen the AA launcher when they overran the military base that time. Apparently there was one there.

Could be the ukranians.

Well that's their chances of joining the EU scuppered.

Could be the ukranians. Did you see the vid where they left a fully fuelled & armed bmp-type vehicle parker on the high street?

That was not the Ukraine. That was Luton.

The Ukrainians have so far used precisely zero surface-to-air missiles in the current crisis, because the rebels don't have any planes.

Saw that one. Looks like a lose-lose situation - if they did do it accidentally, they're now ****ed. If it was a coincidence and they removed the posts for that reason, they're still ****ed because it's a BIG coincidence and looks fishy.
