is the fact, that people are concerned with 'a couple hundred' flying out of a Russian transport - not 2+ million dead in ethnic/tribal warfare!

Go, UN, go...

Was it Malthus who talked about natural population control?

Those who weren't sucked out when the back opened are people with a gecko-like ability to grip smooth surfaces. We can expect a tribe of Gecko People coming from the Congo in the near future. The Spiderman sequel will feature several of them crawling up buildings-- no special effects required.

But seriously, wasn't it hilarious that the Ukrainian government denied that anyone died on that plane?

No special effects from Ukr...

Don't ya,' just love the state & all of its various machinations?

That would be a pretty interesting movie - "From the deepest darkest jungle of Africa comes......Gecko man."

I was planning to hitchhike a ride to LVIV with a UKR transport plane from Kuwait, but I would told if I didn't make it back to Fort Campbell I would be declared AWOL. The UN charters some UKR transport planes to use in Africa and Kosovo.
