Ya know, I hope you are wrong but you're probably right.

In re: 79
I'm in Saudi Arabia. There were not crowd reactions, but all newspapers, Arabic and English, gave major front page coverage to the disaster, including photos. Editorials were consistently offering condolences and made no effort to score political points. All mentioned the Israeli astronaut as well.
Today, the papers are running stories on the different astronauts, with major focus on Kalpana Chawla as there's a large Indian expat community here.
I don't know what lesson you intend for us to take from Saudi reaction, but if it's what I think it is, you're pretty damn presumptious.
