1. rebels don't have any aircraft

so it makes zero sense that Ukraine could have accidentally shot it down...

The rebels dun goofed, a horrible mistake, the worst thing for their cause would be to shoot down a commercial airliner killing innocent civilians from the Netherlands, Australia et al
No surprise they are trying to cover up their mistake.
The White House seized the opportunity without much evidence to immediately demonize Putin as the guy responsible for the attack on a commercial airliner. They've gotten quiet because they got what they wanted out of the tragedy and don't want to be answering questions that will embarrass them.
