Have you noticed?
That British C-130 that went down in Iraq seems to be being buried by the Media. When it first happened, I happened to be awake and it was the 'story of the hour'. Later on in the morning, I'm not hearing anything about it, beyond a little snippet here and there.

To me, this is a BIG story...especially when we find out HOW it happened to crash. It's my understanding that beyond the heavy equipment it carries, it can carry up to 100 people. This is a tragedy, a real tragedy. Why are they holding back on this story? Any ideas?

3. My apologies
My sincerest apologies. I am brand new to being able to post here. It was my opinion that the C-130 crashing in Iraq is catagorized as LBN.

Yes, I have read the rules, but thanks for the reminder
