MOSCOW, Oct. 4 - A Russian airliner carrying at least 77 people and flying from Israel to Siberia exploded in midair Thursday, falling into the Black Sea. The possibility of terrorism was immediately raised as Russian aircraft and ships rushed to the scene 100 miles off Russia\'s coast. Israel suspended all flights from its major airport as a precaution.

Ouch.:evil:
-
That better not have been ****ing terrorist again
-
Israel says that terrorists did it, but maybe it\'s just tactic.
-
Is that what they are saying in Germany? It seems a little premature to outright say it was terrorist related.
-
Planes don\'t just explode (not even TWA 800). I know, I worked in the fuel tanks for 4 years.
If it blew up, it was from an external source, period.
-
I figure it blew up from a bomb, but saying it\'s terrorist related and not some whacko with a bomb is what I was asking. Although terrorists are whackos..
I\'m just wondering if there is a connection.
-
True Video. It could have been Oxy tanks, or any number of other sources, I was merely stating that an airplane under normal conditions doesn\'t just explode.
Unfortunately, for an explosion to be seen by a nearby aircraft, as was the case, it points towards a deliberate act.
If it was intentional, it was terrorism, wether by a "lone nut" terrorist, or from a member of some radical group.

Very true...but Im wondering if it is the same group responsible for the US attacks, or just some cheesy copycats.

at this point the world is one fu@ked up place, nothing would surprise me at this point... not even a government eager to kill their own citizens to justify a new agenda.

Where did you see that? Must see Must see!!!:clown:

I just heard on tv that it might have been be shot down by a urkranian (sp?) missile, the plane might have been heading somewhere :eek:
-
I heard that on the radio. Talking about how it was a missle test and a mistake.
Oooops...:o

yeah a coincidence I think, a plane full of israelis seems a good target for palistinians. They wouldn\'t dare to do it on israeli airways because they have very high security measures. Maybe the russian government is trying to cover the situation up trying not to make people afraid
-
Why was a chartered flight full of Israelis heading for Novosibirsk, Siberia? Has anyone thought to ask this question? Sounds weird to me.

Do any of you guys notice how quickly it seems to be that the government is covering up these news issues pretty quickly? I mean there was the incident with the Greyhound buses the other day--the man was quickly dismissed as a lone wacko. This incident with the plane crashing was quickly dismissed as an "accident". With the technology have possess today how can an accident like that even take place. As someone stated before, planes just dont blow up for no reason, missle or no missle. How many other things like this are going on and what isnt the government telling us? I know its for our own good for the masses not to know but it makes you think.

Yeah. Lots of stuff goes on. Normal things that wouldn\'t make news are now making news. Like the dude who contracted anthrax here in FL. He probably got it from a cow, but they are going nuts-o over here..
Oh yeah, before I forget....
