MOSCOW, August 25 - Russian President Dmitry Medvedev on Monday sent a message of condolences to Kyrgyz President Kurmanbek Bakiyev in connection with the crash of a Boeing-737 plane at Bishkek’s international airport Manas, the Kremlin press service reported.

The Boeing, belonging to Kyrgyz Itek Air carrier, was on a fight from Bishkek to Tehran. It took off from Manas at 18:30, Moscow time, on Sunday and several minutes later requested an emergency landing. However, it failed to reach the airport and went down five kilometres away from the landing strip, near the settlement of Dzhany-Dzher.

According to official reports, there were 90 passengers and crew on board the plane. Sixty-five bodies have been found at the site of the crash. The Kyrgyz government has set up a commission to look into the plane crash.

The jet was on its way to Tehran, the Iranian capital. Among those on board were 44 Iranian Scientists and Engineers.

Not to be too much of a tin foil hat guy, but Iran could just say that there were 44 scientist on the plane, call them all dead, and then put the actual live 44 scientist to work in a underground bunker. It's a nice way to make people disappear with them not actually disappearing.

not a pack of 18 year olds (assuming there is an age limit in Paradise)

Mohammad married a six year old.

Besides, you forgot about the 18 young-boys-like-pearls sex toys.

I do not think this crash will get the attention it would if the f.a.a. investigated it.
Foreign country and all. F.A.A. investigators would have to be invited in to check it out and I gots a feelin that ain’t gonna happen.

Why stop there? Do you really think Russia wants Iran to have nukes?

SOCOM need not be involved. Stupidity is often the cause of trouble.

Transporting radioactive materials inappropriately can cause all sorts of electrical and mechanical problems, for instance...

The Democrat controlled Congress will have hearings to make damn sure the CIA was not involved. We have to keep up the Bush fault mantra.

Now I wonder If they found any bodies. Maybe it landed and after taking some folks off the plane ...it went boom?

LOL, I can think of all kinds of plans, that could have been used.

rather it notes that a youth basketball team was on board

Oh, so it is the little children this time. I figured maybe these scientists were all going to a wedding.

.....then put the actual live 44 scientist to work in a underground bunker......

How about 25. The manifest said 90 souls on board but only 65 seem to be accounted for.

What happened to the other 25?
