I find this very sinister.
I link it to two other events - the uprising in Kyrzycstan (sp?), which has just cut off the US base supplying Afghanistan - and the price of gold, which has risen very sharply this week, as if someone knew of a security alert.
How convenient! Zero surrenders to Putin and two days later the President of Poland is dead!
The plane “happened” to crash is Russia and it’s Friday.
No conservative commentary till Monday. Zero goes on American Idol and Tiger is on the tee... an opportunity
for distraction.
This is cause for suspicion.
Putin is a hard core Soviet. KGB; nuff said.
RIP His Excellency Lech Kaczynski, President of the Republic of Poland.
Prayers for the families and for all of Poland. What a tragedy.
From the constitution of the Republic of Poland:
http://www.sejm.gov.pl/prawo/konst/angielski/kon1.htm
Article 131
The Marshal of the Sejm shall, until the time of election of a new President of the Republic, temporarily discharge the duties of the President of the Republic in the following instances:
1) the death of the President of the Republic;
If the Marshal of the Sejm is unable to discharge the duties of the President of the Republic, such duties shall be discharged by the Marshal of the Senate.
Does anyone know the names of these 2 people?
Helluva question, things that make one go 'Hmmm....'
Given Russia's ambitions to re-constitute it's old Communisst self, I personally wouldn't have a hard time believing that somehow Putin was behind this (and I'm typically NOT a conspiracy theorist. I just recognize that evil in this world is on the rise thanks to Obama's weak "leadership.")
Thick fog as it came in for a landing.
This is extremely suspicious, to say the least. Don’t leave the investigation up to just the Russians.
Thanks, I just found it too, at the bottom of the fox news link from the headline.
This link is to an article about Kaczynski’s ruling party electing Komorowski as their candidate for president. Komorowski is popular in Poland.

According to Drudge headlines it’s pilot error. We’ll see.
Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin attended a memorial ceremony Wednesday for 22,000 Polish prisoners of war killed by Soviet security forces during World War II.http://www.sofiaecho.com/2010/04/08/884149_putin-attends-katyn-memorial-ceremonyPolish Prime Minister Donald Tusk accompanied Mr. Putin at the joint commemoration of the April 1940 Katyn massacre, near the modern-day Russian city of Smolensk.
Mr. Putin said for 50 years, the Soviets told what he called "cynical lies" to cover up the truth about Katyn.
Prime Minister Tusk urged Mr. Putin to ensure that all Soviet-era archives related to the massacre are open to researchers.
U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said in a statement that the meeting of the Polish and Russian leaders is a sign of hope for a bright and peaceful future.
Soviet dictator Josef Stalin ordered his secret police to execute 22,000 captured Polish army officers and other prisoners of war. The killings took place in several locations, but Katyn has become the chief symbol of loss.
Russia blamed the killings on Nazi Germany until former Soviet President Mihkail Gorbachev admitted in 1990 that the crimes had been committed by Stalin's dreaded secret police - the forerunner of the KGB.

Thanks. It appears this was a real accident- pilot error and bad weather.
The people of Poland are strong- they will get past this heartbreak- but will carry it always.
