Granted that the 154 does not have the greatest safety record.

But no SOS call is ominous

Obama has gone over the brink.
God help us.
Arming ISIS is something that should have landed him in prison.

If Obama is responsible for this there is going to be HELL to pay.

I don’t thin khe would do something this stupid as Putin understands that he could totally FK Obama over by saying to Trump: Prosecute and convict Obama for war crimes when you take office or you start your term with a war on your hands.

If it was undeniably the US there should be 1 million patriots crashing the WH gates on new years eve. Start the new year off getting rid of a bunch of islime sympathizers , enemy agents, and communists.

There is a show on DirecTV about airplane crash investigations around the world. The other night was the one about the president of Poland’s plane crashing a few years ago in Russia, and it was a Russian air plane. They guys on there were saying that Russia AVERAGED 10 crashes a year and people over there just took air plane crashes as normal and a part of doing business. So, a plane crash in Russia is nothing new, we just don’t hear about them as much as we do over here.

The Tu-154 was carrying a lot of classified papers.

...and it had too much cargo. That might explain the crash.

I guess a lot of maps etc from Moscow for their operations in the ME.

Soon they will send some underwater rescue equipment, expect a lot of activities at the crash site.

Yes. That is the Leningrad Cowboys (Finnish group) & the Red Army Choir/Alexandrov Ensemble, though probably many different members now.

Very good point. They do have, like much of the world, much different safety levels than the US.

How awful.

They’re ruling out terrorism pretty quickly it seems.
