Actually, before you get all fired up, planes do crash, on their own. Especially charter airlines in poor countries. It happens, all the time, the odds are overwhelmingly in favor of this being like the 99.97% of airline crashes that are due to poor maintenance, pilot error, or weather.

Yes, planes crash all the time...

But with the proliferation of shoulder launched SAMs and RPGs ... Who knows, it's a brave new world. :/

Reading your post the vision off a train with people overloaded flashed in my head. Is 135 a big load for the type of aircraft... I wonder.

Yes but considering the timing, the location and that the passengers were European it deserves a suspicious look

Especially since the "powers-that-be" have strong motives to deny terrorism as the cause.

Remember they denied the killings at the El Al counter on the Fourth of July were terrorism, too.
