Thank God we're not Russia
Something suspicious here? http://www.smh.com.au/text/articles/...246621809.html "The pilot of one of two Russian planes that crashed almost simultaneously had sent a hijack alert,"...and, in the same story: "FSB officials had not yet found evidence of a terrorist act or explosion..." Do the Russians really believe people are that stupid? -c |

Do the Russians really believe people are that stupid? No, but not acknowledging the obvious is effective worldwide. Think WMD. |

Do the Russians really believe people are that stupid? The Feds believe the American public is as stupid. Its the way of governments with too much power and too little respect for their people. |

C'mon! You know how crash investigations work, and this one is no exception. They need a bit more than 24 hours to come up with anything remotely concrete. The probability of terrorism is very high in this case, but it also isn't quite 100%. --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).

Near as I can tell, you and I are the only people who know what that means. |

And remember jumping to the wrong conclusion, or at least pretending to, about a terrorist act recently cost a certain government an election. OK, that was about which terrorists, but the comparison still applies. -- David Brooks |

They didn't say it they didn't know if it was terrorism. They said they had not yet found evidence. So I guess the HIJACK DISTRESS SIGNAL (http://www.cnn.com) isn't "evidence," yeah? -c |
