The report does not apportion blame and publishes little that can easily be harnessed to the "Putin did it" meme'.
The physical evidence it describes is in fact more consistent with a fighter attack firing cannon from the port-side rear of the airliner since the cockpit area damage it describes and illustrates with images is also consistent with damage which - tellingly - it neither describes nor posts images of, but which is readily available to view online - see image right.
