At this point I would have to agree, someone slipped a couple of bombs on those planes.

With current reports being they took off form the same airport gross incompitence by the ground crew is also a possibility.

Breaking story on Fox News TV at approx 1810edt. Incident wherein one plane carrying as many as 60 passengers was "shot down" while "another plane is missing". I can find nothing on Tass, Isv, Prav, et al. and nothing yet on the network news websites.

No mayday, from either plane.

Of course we don't know that yet now do we? Guessing the cause of a plane crash within minutes of it happening is rarely right. Plenty of airliner accidents have happened and a mayday call was never sent. Sometimes the pilots are too busy with the problem to send the call.

And both departed from the same airport... if one plane could be sabotaged, then two could be. Or more.

There are a lot of possibilities that are as likely or more likely than a coordinated terrorist attack successfully downing two jets in Russia.

Why do you think it's so implausible? After all, a coordinated terrorist attack successfully downed FOUR jets here just under three years ago.

I suspect a Cheney/Haliburton connection to surface soon.

Good point. They probably have a monopoly on salvage rights in the Red Sea. Bastards!!!!

Keep an eye open. I mentioned earlier that this could be a possible signal to other terrorists.

Has anyone questioned the timing of this incident yet?

Hopefully just to get some "facts" before scaring the crap out of everyone.

At this point I'd not only say "bombs," but AQ, for this reason: No warning. No taking credit. Designed NOT to be spinnable as an accident, but they love to watch governments TRY to spin sabotage as accidents anyway, because that is the reflexive response.
