GWAP Blog wishes our deepest condolences (najszczersze
kondolencje) to our Polish friends.
(Najszczersze kondolencje, is Polish for "sincerest condolences").
(Poland lost their president and chief military officers, today, in a plane crash.
The 26-year-old presidential plane carrying 97 people, tried, unsuccessfully, to land in thick fog over Russia.
Persons on the plane included Polish President - Lech Kaczynski, his wife - First lady Maria Kaczynska and staff.
They were being transported to events marking the 70th anniversary of the massacre in Katyn forest of thousands of Polish officers by Soviet secret police).
Please see article,"Polish leader, 96 others dead in Russia jet crash" for more information.

People of Poland, please know that our hearts go out to you and we will continue to keep you in our prayers.
(I would like to thank MUMINUX for the use of his Flickr inset photo, entitled, "Polish president feared dead in plane crash - about 132 victims". It shows Polish President, Lech Kaczynski, his wife - First lady Maria Kaczynska).
