Thank you dust!!!

News from Poland can't be found as a top stories very often. But recently, all the world were talking about the plane crash near Smolensk, where Polish president - Lech Kaczynski and almost one hundred other people died. But I'm not going to write, how depressed am I because of that. It wouldn't be so frank, because neither I liked Kaczynski nor appreciated his politics. However if I were a VIP from newspaper covers and announced to go to his funeral then any volcanic dust wouldn't stop me. I don't believe that presidents and prime ministers of world most developed countries didn't have information about the real danger (that is no danger) of the dust. The question, that should be asked is just: why?


Why didn't you come to the funeral, mr. Obama, mrs. Merkel, mr. Sarkozy and others? President Saakashvili was able to come from USA and president Obama was not? President Köhler was able to come from Germany and a chancellor Merkel was not?
I found just a one word to describe it - shame. By declaring their attendance in Kaczynski's funeral and not coming they insulted Polish president. And, as we must know that a president's funeral is a political event, then they insulted The Republic of Poland. I realize, that all that politicians might have not like Kaczynski, but he was a representative of the country.
It's really sad, that it was done by the people, who have always declared a friendship and political alliance with Polish country.
