Disturbing circumstances around crash of Wellstone plane raise questions of conspiracy

Minnesota Sen. Paul Wellstone was a serious man who cared profoundly about his fellow citizens. He took courageous stands against an administration that he viewed with profound suspicion, arguing eloquently against tax cuts for the rich, the subversion of the Constitution, and violating international accords. He would have led the opposition to the war in Iraq if only he had had the chance. Everyone knew it and he may have died because of it.

For nearly a year now, evidence has been accumulating about the event that ended the life of this magnificent human being. Whatever caused the crash was not the plane, the pilots, or the weather. In spite of what you may have heard, the plane was exceptional, the pilots well-qualified, and the weather posed no significant problems. Even the National Transportation Safety Board's own simulations of the plane, the pilots, and the weather were unable to bring the plane down.

This means we have to consider other, less palatable, alternatives, such as small bombs, gas canisters or electromagnetic pulse, radio frequency or High Energy Radio Frequency weapons designed to overwhelm electrical circuitry with an intense electromagnetic field.

(...)

Among the striking indications that something was wrong with the NTSB in its inquiry into the causes of the crash is that Carol Carmody, a former employee with the CIA, the head of the team, announced the day after that the FBI had found no indications of terrorist involvement.

(...)

The FBI's prompt arrival was peculiar... "a team of FBI agents was quickly on the crash site about noon, less than an hour after Ulman and the chief had first located the site..."

1. Now that the NTSB has released their findings. . .

. . it occurred to me that certainly the CIA or some clandestine agency has by now been able to produce an incapacitating drug that leaves no residue in the bloodstream. Probably some kind of nerve agent.

Placed in the cockpit of any small airplane and timed to release when the plane is in the air, it would most certainly result in a deadly crash attributed to "pilot error".

The only tricky part would be to package it so that all the packaging is flammable and easily destroyed in the crash. Is that so farfetched?

2. The rethugs are capable of anything....

I always thought that there was more than a little chance that it was an assassination, and I have NEVER been a conspiritorialist.

4. Let's do be precise

This would hardly be an action of the "Rethugs." It would be the freelance initiative of a trained special ops team, possibly with orders or an impulse from someone above them, possibly as hired help, possibly true believers acting on their own, no doubt with connections leading back ultimately to someone Republican...

3. this makes me so sick I can't even bear to think about it

I almost (almost, I say) would rather stay in denial. I hope that nobody was cruel enough to slaughter a brilliant man and his friends and family, particularly using the very tool that had caused so much angst for Wellstone to begin with. :(
