dunno, their might be somthing to it but my question would be (and I know I havent been following poutie-tootie) what the heck is the motivation to off the entire plane load? There are really easy ways to be more "specific."
Not if you want a complex specific result. The Russians are definitely complex enigmas. One such complex scenario is plausible. They actually wanted there to be enough circumstantial evidence that pointed to foul play. So they did not worry about covering all their tracks. Eventually that circumstantial evidence will cause friction between Poland and Russia. Similar to the friction currently developing between North Korea and South Korea over the recent loss of a ship due to what was originally considered an accident. Russia would be gravely concerned at the accusations circulating within Poland. Russia was just an innocent bystander for a tragic accident. However, considering the dangerous accusations from Poland, Russia will have to assume that Poland plans on utilizing this tragic accident to invade Russia again. After all that was the common excuse for quite a few aggressive attacks that occurred during the previous couple of World Wars. And of course wiping out all the hard line opposition that could rally Poland to defending itself is also a bonus.
Seems like standard war game play in Europe. Nothing new here.
Ron Brown's entire plane went down.

The entire planeload was a huge chunk of the government, military brass and finance. The President of the Central Bank, who supported the (now dead) President. The military brass who supported the (now dead) President. And the President who did NOT support Putin and also was still for getting the missile defense that Putin pitched a fit over.
Lots of reasons it would seem. And if all of these people were killed in various ‘accidents’, it would most certainly be seen as murder. Now only the ‘the kooky’ see it as anything but a misfortunate event.
Also, there were safety features in place for landing just a few days earlier when the Prime Minister (who IS pro-Putin) landed at this same airport, but was removed before THIS plane was set to land.
