In government, nothing just happen. Every act is planned and carefully executed.

The plane went down in my hometown

[@fjahnhogler]

Interesting! Is it ever still talked about? What is the most common belief about the crash in your hometown?

[@bertwilson8310]

I recall reading in a book about Russian insiders during the Cold War where someone reported that Krushchev was very angry in a meeting and exclaimed that he wanted Hammarskjöld dead.
