Find an "expert" with crazy, funky, unkempt hair, squinty eyes and a gift for making up silly connections from random "evidence", and you'll have all the proof you need.

Didn't a crew of guys on the Mir get into a fist fight once?

I for one, think it is a false flag operation. Clearly these booster vehicles and satellites were talking to the wrong people or not working hard enough, so Russia eliminated them and blamed it on the Americans, who believe that Russia cannot be trusted with this dangerous technology.

Sure the Cold War is over and we're all pals now, but I'd never go into space with the vodka swilling bastards.

If you're going to burn up on re-entry, vodka might as well be involved.

Is there any way we can get them to blame it on Iran? 'Cause that would solve a whole bunch of problems.

Odds are it's China. Russia is the only big-mover to orbit these days and China likely wants that business. Why compete with them when you can discredit them?
