UKRAINE: WHY ARE REBELS HOODED ?

Regularly in television newscasts one sees rebels in  Eastern Ukraine armed to the teeth and wearing hoods that cover their faces. They are in fact like "soldiers" but they have no specific markings on them; they cannot normally be identified.  

In a few cases it has been possible to identify a hooded rebel.  This has proved that "Professional" soldiers from Russia are helping local Russian rebels to create disturbances in Ukraine.  This is, in fact, the exact same tactic that Putin adopted when he was organising the annexation of Crimea in the spring of 2014 !  Reports on the Internet confirm this !

Shooting down an Airliner at a heigth of 10 000 meters requires sophisticated weapons and professional skills which normal rebels do not possess !  So who did the shooting, and why the "cover-up" afterwards which prevented inspectors going into the crash area ?

Is there no way to prevent "soldiers" from wearing hoods ?   What are they trying to hide and why ?

How can innocent civilians avoid trouble ? Is the United Nations not there to intervene to avoid more bloodshed in the world ?  Should it not act now and quickly ?

When there are no rules and no regulations and no sanctions, problems just increase, Mr. Ban Ki-moon !
