To all my Polish members and readers of the Heartland my deepest condolences for this tragic lost.
My thought are with you and all of them who have lost there relatives in this this tragic accident.

Yes it's quite a big thing here on the news. The plane carried about 80 or 90 people and all of them were important personas in the polish government, so there's quite a mess now. A week of national mourning, nothing else apart from that on the radio and so on. Me, I don't hang a flag outside my window, sorry. I didn't like them.

Me, I don't hang a flag outside my window, sorry. I didn't like them.

Yes, I understand. The way of his kind of politics I also don't like.

But to die in this way is a tragic, and maybe more for the people who did go to travel with him to remember the tragic and horror of Katyn, then for president Kaczynski it self.

funniest thing is that now you'll know what happen in Katyn during WW II.

i also didn't share view for the policy with all these people, don't like them as politics disagreed and disgusted by their public image but they also were a man, so no sorry for politics but for people and their families.

And again....a Tupolev....

And again....a Tupolev....

From what I heard this was probably a human faile.

I already knew what happened at Katyn.

But offcourse this accident with point people to this tragic fact what happened to the almost 22.000 Polish prisoners of war (primarily military officers), intellectuals, police officers, and other public servants that where killed in the early days of WO II.....and otherwise they can take the change and go to youtube to watch the film of Andrzej Wajda (with english sub-titels if needed).

That is what I wanted to say

Yeah, probably....But still, it is a disaster plane.

German magazines are covering this disaster big time, too. Say what you want about Lech Kaczynski: In my understanding, it's the combination of the loss of high-ranked officials and remembering the Katyn massacre that brought Poland into this trauma.

So my thoughts are with the People of Poland, the land of my ancestors.

Well yes. THIS I understand and agree of course. That, and the combination with Katyn, not to mention that for me a mere thought of a plane crash is a nightmare - all this is pretty damn sad and scary I admit. But the messages that go from the radio that "we should unite" and "be together", "all the Poles should pray and hang flags" is not exactly my cup of tea.

Dear Bartek,

You are underestimating us.

[lachert]

i still can't f**king belive it
how things like this can happened at all

[Bartek]

either i have a ''problem'' to join this, from my point of view, too pathetic and a bit hypocritical mob.

i happy that some of you knew about that what Stalin did in Katyn.
