- CryRightardCry, on 03/27/2008, -1/+2When a country doesn't bother to investigate the death of one of it's heroes you can be pretty sure something dirty is going on.
(Huh. Pat Tillman just popped into my head. Funny.)- cageybee, on 03/28/2008, -0/+1i am sure they investigated and know. probably something top secret still to date. do you really think soviets did not care???
- dartmanx, on 03/28/2008, -0/+1Well, pravda means "truth", and if its Pravda, it must be true.
- cageybee, on 03/28/2008, -1/+2they forgot to put one more version in there: one of soviet adversaries shot the aircraft - soviets did not respond because the response would have to be with nuclear war. making this info public would make them look like idiots. could be the reason why it is still top secret today. remember, back in 60s, when Kennedy was assasinated, there were lots of theories that KGB took out Kennedy. maybe US took out Gagarin in response?? hero for hero??
