Interesting example of how a clever voice-over can influence how you perceive video footage. I'm not saying that he wasn't faking, just that with the voice-over present I can't perceive it as anything else... without, I'm not so sure.

I did that... but only after having heard the voice over, so I was not entirely without prejudice.

He wasn't crying because he was probably the one that had him offed, or at least knew about it.

You're saying that Bill Clinton convinced a senior military pilot to kill himself and 34 others just to kill Ron Brown, a man that Clinton had appointed to the position of Secretary of Commerce a few years earlier?

That's a heck of a theory there Barcs..

Interesting stuff, though it does not mean it was rigged:
Ron Brown

BTW Clinton had politically correct attitude to become next US president
Bush and Clinton cocaine connection

It's not as crazy as you make it sound. The plane could have been sabotaged or overrun with black ops. It doesn't mean the pilot killed himself and his passengers.
