Mockingbird Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 The blood of Russian citizens were spilled at the hand of Islamic terrorists while Putin was president. I want to know what Putin will do about it. Is Putin strong enough to bring these Islamic terrorists to justice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norseman Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 There are MANPADS that can reach 25,000 feet, and who knows what IS has appropriated in Iraq and Syria. Do you mean from the USA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocM Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 Do you mean from the USA? At the least, the FIM-92 Stinger RMP (US), Grom (Poland) and Starstreak (UK can approach or exceed 25,000 feet. Whatever, it's looking like this was an onboard bomb. We'll know for sure when the forensics come back.on the burned tissues of tail passengers and tail parts.

Mockingbird Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Emerging consensus: bomb in hold brought down Russian airliner In Britain, the BBC is reporting that UK intelligence believes that a bomb placed in the hold of the doomed Metrojet plane caused its crash Saturday, and suspicion is falling on airport workers in Sharm el-Sheikh. The BBC also reports that the intelligence breakthrough came from "intercepted communication between militants in the Sinai Peninsula."

x.iso Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 That's what I thought happened from the start (bomb installed on the plane). Who and how installed it would be a main question. It could be even someone from Russia (or airline company) recruited by ISIS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim K Global Moderator Posted November 17, 2015 Global Moderator Share Posted November 17, 2015 Russia now fully supports that a bomb brought down the plane. Russia's security chief says an act of terror brought down the Russian A321 airliner in Egypt last month, killing all 224 people on board. "Traces of foreign explosives" were found on debris from the Airbus plane, FSB chief Alexander Bortnikov told Russian President Vladimir Putin. Mr Putin vowed to "find and punish" those behind the attack over the Sinai peninsula. A branch of so-called Islamic State said it downed the plane. Nearly all the dead were Russians. Mr Bortnikov said a bomb had been planted on board the Metrojet plane, equivalent to up to 1kg of TNT. The Kremlin website carried a transcript of the meeting. The bomb shattered the plane mid-air on 31 October, he said, "which explains the wide dispersal of fuselage pieces". Mr Putin said that Russia must hunt those responsible "indefinitely, find out who the individuals were". "We'll look for them everywhere, wherever they are hiding. We'll find them in any corner of the planet and punish them." http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-34840943 With the tragic loss of 224 people on the Russian plane and Russians and 129 in Paris ... I really hope Russia and the US (and obviously other Allies) can put aside their differences and unite to wipe ISIS off this planet.

Not saying that Russia should get off the hook for the mess in Ukraine, but their differences need to be put aside for now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
