RUSSIAN
AIRPLANE CRASH - FLIGHT 9268 - 224 KILLED.
On behalf of our FaceBook
Group of 3,453 Members – “Rhodesia’;s Viscount Disasters”, we extend our
condolences to the families and relatives of the victims, as well as to the
Russian population as a whole, who are no doubt equally shocked by this
catastrophic disaster, as were the entire Rhodesian population from the downing
of Air Rhodesia’s Flights RH825 and RH827 by terrorists in 1978 and 1979
respectively.
Flight 9268 to St Petersburg crashed in Egypt’s Sinai
Peninsula shortly after taking off from Sharm el-Sheikh on Saturday morning. All
224 crew and passengers, many of them holidaymakers from St Petersburg, were
killed in the worst single disaster in Russian aviation history. According to
“THE TELEGRAPH”, experts said such a decompression could have been caused by
stress-cracks in the fuselage, the external impact of flying objects - possibly
including fragments of a malfunctioning engine - or an on-board explosion,
possibly indicating a Lockerbie-style bomb attack.
An analysis of
planned attacks on aircraft in flight, is that they are either to effect
retribution for something, as were the 9/11 attacks on Twin Towers, or to
promote revolution in a country such as by rebel forces in Rhodesia and
apparently of late, in the Ukraine with Air Malaysia’s Flight MH17.
While it is not yet known what caused Flight 9268 to crash, it is our
belief that the aviation industry should be declared a “protected” manner of
transportation, to which cause all nations should formally subscribe. Inclusive
in such an agreement, must be a compulsory undertaking by every country, to ban
the supply of manpads or sophisticated missile systems for any cause, save for
self defensive purposes of a legitimate country.
Furthermore, the cause
of any airline crash should be investigated by a panel of experts from at least
four countries to avoid cover-ups. Although the subject of cover-ups is case
sensitive at the moment to the Viscount disasters, this is by no means
restricted to the Rhodesian situation. Practically every airline disaster in
history related to a deliberate attack, has incurred a cover-up of some sort.
Whether these thoughts constitute a utopian view of a solution or not is
beside the point. Unless a universal initiative is forthcoming to reduce
susceptibility to attacks on aircraft in flight, for whatever reason, these
should rank as crimes against humanity with mandatory punishment of life
sentence without parole, or even the death penalty. It is surely up to the
population to pressurize relevant authorities and governments to enforce the
right to survive aircraft travel, in this crazy world of today. |
