Islamic State claim 'not accurate' - Russia

Russia’s transport minister Maksim Sokolov has said that the claim Islamic State militants brought down the plane “can’t be considered accurate”.

Shadi Bushra, reporting for the Guardian in Cairo, has also spoken to Mohamed Samir, Egypt’s army spokesman, who also refuted the claim.

They can put out whatever statements they want but there is no proof at this point that terrorists were responsible for this plane crash.

We will know the true reasons when the civil aviation authority in coordination with Russian authorities completes its investigation.

But the army sees no authenticity to their claims or their video.

I wonder if it is wise to antagonize people who are not burdened with silly rules of engagement, and can commit the greatest of “war crimes” with no fear whatsoever that the UN will actually do anything about it

“Poor maintenance by the Russian owners , The Putin Glue failed”

Or, it’s yet ANOTHER Airbus Angle-Of Attack Indicator problem, leading to yet another loss of an aircraft.

Or Iran Air 655.

But nobody that has the ability to make fhat shot is talking.

[Alas Babylon!]

That looks like somewhere in Sub-Saharan Africa, not the Egyptian desert.

Note the black African man and hand, and the tall trees in the background (not many trees in the Sinai desert).
