Finally, the world is starting to admit what most of us figured out pretty quickly. A bomb most likely blew up the Russian plane on October 31, 2015, killing all 224 souls aboard. Reporting from CNN, indicates that United States intelligence operatives are starting to conclude that a bomb was planted aboard the plane by the Islamic State or one of its affiliates.
According to a report in USA Today this morning, the British government has suspended all flights involving the Sinai Peninsula. The British government convened a crisis committee meeting last night to discuss the crash. USA Today quotes Phillip Hammond.
We have concluded there is a significant possibility that the crash was caused by an explosive device on board the aircraft,” British Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond said Wednesday night after a meeting of the government’s crisis committee about the crash that killed all 224 onboard
While up until now U.S. officials have been tight lipped about ascribing the crash to terrorism, USA Today is reporting that:
A U.S. satellite registered a “heat flash” about the time that the jet crashed, according to a variety of news reports based on a U.S. official speaking on condition of anonymity. Though no missile was detected in the area, the flash could signal a bomb, but it could also represent a fuel tank exploding as the jet broke up for other reasons
According to reports in the U.K. Telegraph, British Prime Minister is meeting with Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al Sisi at lunchtime in the United Kingdom. With fears that the British suspension of flights could damage relations with Egypt over fears of British loss of life due to terrorism in Sinai, these two calm and mature leaders may work things out.
Russian President Vladimir Putin, according to DC Whispers:
he is said to be at this very moment reviewing a myriad of counter-measure options – all of them intending to “unleash hell” in the form of powerful military-based retribution the likes of which ISIS militants have yet to have faced.
According to The White House website, President Barack Obama has no public schedule today and White House spokespeople have not mentioned the Russian crash tragedy since offering investigative help three days ago..

Appalled By The World says: Heh heh-ISIS is about to experience much of the martyrdom they crave so much when Putin decides to act. I just hope it’s bloody and highly painful as that filth deserves nothing but the worst.
Meanwhile in DC a certain “leader” is probably having his flunkies write up his speech of complaint for when Putin does his thing. And no doubt Putin will be shaking in his shoes at the strong rebuke.
orrrrrr……. the Russians were using it to move some ordnance that malfunctioned and blowed up. While I think a jihadi bomb is more likely, I wouldn’t rule out a garden variety screwup.
