The West Media like CNN, Fox, BBC will gladly broadcast the terror 24x7 to terrorize the world and get Bush elected. The problem is that Putin do not want to play the game as planned, and blowned both off the air. Sadly, there is no terror show for Bush.
President Vladimir Putin's envoy to the southern region said the Tupolev airliners' black boxes had "practically switched off immediately".
Mr Putin has also ordered the government to draft legislation to hand over responsibility for airport security to the interior ministry.

Are you saying that Putin had the planes shot down?
If so what information do you have to support your assertion?
Off the wall statements like this generally lessen the credibility of the one making the statement as well as exposing highly imaginative bias.

I thought there were reports of the Highjacking signal being sent by one or more planes before they crashed? Given the terrorism resulting from increased tensions with the Georgians, this wouldn't surprise me...not Al Queda....

Funny how this will allow him to reign in private corporate power in yet another sector touching on Russia's National Security Interests.
Interesting... Anyone else smell something rotten?

On Wednesday, August 25, following the news of the double aircraft disaster, State Duma Deputy Valery Draganov suggested grouping all Russian airlines into one state-run monopoly. This would allow for better servicing of the airplane fleet, better flight organization and more financial means to renew the fleet, said the deputy.
�Having found out about the tragedy that happened to two of our air jets, I came to the conclusion that it is necessary to change the legislature in order to create a single airline, and I already began to hold consultations in this direction,� said Draganov. The deputy expressed an opinion that a single airline would have more financial opportunities for timely renewal of their fleet of planes, their servicing and organization of flights.
�At the present time every region of Russia has a large and several small airlines, and it is highly doubtful that all of them have qualified maintenance staff, not to speak of financial opportunities of buying new aircraft,� he explained.

However, independent military analyst Pavel Felgenhauer dismissed that speculation, saying the plane wreckage did not show signs of being shot down and that there are no anti-aircraft missile batteries in the regions where the planes fell.

Say what?! No anti-missile batteries? Give me a break! That one plane was on its way to Sochi, where Putin was. Does anyone actually believe there aren't anti-missile batteries all around Putin's compound? That statement is downright absurd.
