tragic air india express crash in mangalore: 166 feared dead

may 22nd, 2010

early morning crash -- looks like plane overshot runway and hit
hillside in desperate attempt by pilot to take off again.

a few survivors, most of the passengers and crew perished when the
plane broke up and burst into flames.

tragic.

unikely to be a terrorist attack, though.

however, note that memorial to air india kanishka in toronto canada
was vandalized a few days before the 25th anniversary of that horrible
tragedy. http://www.dnaindia.com/india/report_memorial-for-kanishka-flight-victims-vandalised-in-toronto_1385318

Unfortunate indeed. Has Oscar Fernandes/ Veerappa Moily
done any finger pointing at Pramod Muthalk and his band of "Hindu terrorists" yet?
