What i dislike is that right now, media's subject is getting cold and they are jumping over to conspiracy theory so they can drag this around for a couple more weeks.
They first ignore you. After they laugh at you. Next they will fight you. In the end you will win.

The politicans forced the landing to be happening even though the pilot wanted to refuse it strongly is my guess

Ok now. My outrage has reached completely new levels.
I accept that a lot of people died there and I feel sad for their families but some things that are happening right now in Poland are just out of this world.
Why the hell they make a hero out of Kaczynski is beyond me. It could be argued that he did more for Poland with his death than he ever did during his life, but the fact that so many people died because of him (I'm certain this crash was his fault, first he delayed the flight - if he wouldn't they would be arriving in good weather conditions - and then there was a lot of pressure on the pilot, because they were getting late for the ceremonies) kind of counters that. He did a couple good things during his presidency but way more bad things, which makes him overall a pretty bad president.
Right now everyone's speaking about him like he was some freaking saint and some news I heard today made me sit down for a moment.
They're going to bury him in Wawel... For those of you who don't know, that's where our kings are buried. Mind is blown.

Read CruiseR's post and check out latest news to know that this THEORY was denied after watching black boxes, ehhh.

Black boxes don't show what's going on outside of pilot's cabin. He could've told them that they HAVE to get him on time no matter what before the liftoff or even before he entered the plane.
But even if he didn't, if he wouldn't delay the flight it could all go differently.

Yeah I was kind of wondering about the ret-conning of how awesome he was.
In life he seemed a very divisive character, him and his brother.
At least that is the impression I've gotten from a couple of my friends who are Polish, though I've not talked to them since the crash.
At the same time it's hardly surprising that a President who dies in office would get such an honour, no matter how good or bad his administration was, but I take your point.
A worrying lack of anvils

How is the president comparable to a king? It makes as much sense as burying him in Jerusalem or something.

Eh, death has always served as a shield to cover the deceased's faults in life. It would be better if so many did not seemingly adhere adamantly to this unspoken rule.

1. He is a hero becouse he died while being on duty.

2. I think You don't even know where Sikorski is buried, who he was and what he did, but WAIT, You know who our president was! You are so smart! and You know who should be buried where, omg can I be Your friend?

3. There is no mind for You to blow, neither brainless manifestating what You say here on street facebook children.

cheers

He also apparently, a year earlier, had gone into the flight cabin and ordered a landing against the pilot's judgment. But since that landing was successful he was of course 'decisive' and 'strong' and 'dedicated'. Doesn't look so good when it doesn't work out, if that is indeed what happened.

Honestly it was likely his arrogance and requirements that lead to the landing attempts at the fog-covered airport, rather than a different one. He's the guy who ran the red light while driving a school bus and killed everyone in a crash, probably.

You suck at trolling.
These sites might be of more use than a StarCraft site, where the majority of posters look on WCIII as the dense misformed fetus produced during Blizzards latest miscarrige.

why? imagine the whole bush administration dying in a planecrash 5 years ago. wouldnt that have been awesome?

lives are relative, the decisions of those corrupt assholes in power always end up costing more lives, so its not unjustifyable from a moralic viewpoint to be happy about stuff like this

Well considering almost everyone in modern times thinks having a President > King, and that most kings in the past were quite tyrannical and selfish... you're honoring the kings by letting the President be buried there^^.
