Far be it from me to speculate on conspiracies....

FAAAaaar be it.

However, when the ENTIRE ruling elite of a country is decimated in a plane crash
A plane carrying Polish President Lech Kaczynski and much of the nation's ruling elite crashed landed in the Russian city of Smolensk on Saturday killing all 96 people on board.
Right after an agreement was signed for missile defense shield installation that was viewed as a 'grave security threat' by Russia
Poland on Tuesday agreed to a new version of a deal on stationing an American missile shield, a government statement said, adding it would be aimed essentially at potential threats from Iran.
And at the same time, Kyrgyzstan's new leaders are accepting support from Russia, meaning that the US-backed government run by Bakiyev's (put in place during the Tulip revolution in 2005 with US involvement, and as usual, it was a corrupt and authoritarian regime), no longer in power, will not be able to accomadate the US military base that was supposed to be set up there in Manas, a base that would've been key to a supply route for the Afghan War, not to mention its usefulness as a listening station into Xinjiang or as a possible expansion point into Central Asia for NATO, well, one has to wonder just how dicey Russian and US relations are getting. I mean, it can't have been a coincidence that the take-over happened on the same day that the US and Russia signed the new arms control pact. That's sending quite a message if I ever heard one.

Somebody doesn't want stability in the region. Who it is, I have NO idea.

Update: Might've been the bankers
The Polish government and the National Bank of Poland, in a “rare moment of unity,” agree to weaken Poland’s currency, the zloty, in an act that would benefit Poland’s exporters at the expense of Poland’s trading partners—that is, the European Union, among others. Then, the next day, Poland’s president and the president of its national bank die in a plane crash.

Was it the Russians? I mean, REALLY, I don't care how economically strapped your government is, you just don't let your President and his entire cabinet travel on a single aircraft!

Talk about proving the logical presumptions of the Polish Joke ~

Even as they are the "prime suspects," the Russians ain't that stupid ... and besides, with the Americans wanting that missile "shield" installed and working in Poland, as a "false flag" event, this plane crash may work very well if the Polish population decides to swallow whatever propaganda presumptions of guilt the CIA choose to exploit.

I know that sometimes, a cigar is just a cigar, but this plane crash was just too much.

Either that or -- obviously -- G!d wanted to tell a Polish Joke.

a few things to note: The President of Poland is not the leader of the country, (it ain't the US system.)

The pilot continued flight into adverse conditions, repeatedly. (The last pilot who refused to land in what he thought was unsafe conditions was fired.)

It's stupid to put all your eggs in one basket, but the right wing part of the Polish gov't thought this made good 'fiscal' sense.

NO POLISH JOKES, I think that was the most insensitive thing I've ever read here Dan. You're better than that. Tain't funny McGee.

Actually, it is very dry humor targeting the ludicrous concept of deity (the Biblical god is wholly quite humorless) much more than it does Polish people.

As it is, the Russians should have seen this coming and pre-empted it by either providing more aircraft themselves, or sabotaging that one plane enough to keep it from flying at all. This will not play out well for Putin.

As it is, I don't even know why it was posted twice, with the second post two minutes after the first.

After I posted it once, I thought I was out'a here.

And finally, yeah, it was somewhat crass. Get over it.
