In Egypt, angry talk of Western conspiracy over plane crash

[bangon04]

"most media have continued to laud him as working to bring stability" and "Happiness"??

Didn't Egypt buy a big batch of the famous Alpha 6 bomb detector? Also known in Thailand as the GT 200.

Maybe they are still using them at the airport to screen the freight.....

In 2014 the Egyptian military claimed the same device could also detect HIV and Hepatitis...... scary.

I bet it was Mossad or the Rothschild's who were blamed. Standard Arab pathology to blame someone else for their every mishap. Shame some in the west actually encourage and help perpetuate this mindset.

Add in the CIA and that is how my Brit neighbor explains every event in the world today. Really it makes things easier ...

So, since the Egyptians are the actual victims, I guess we won't see a memorial erected in Sharm for the Metrojet Flight 9268 victims.

Any sane person knows a bomb brought down the Metrojet flight. It took a day or two for the UK/USA to understand as much. Even Putin is reluctantly accepting of the cause. Egypt will shut up when it's finally confirmed.

Not sure why Egypt insists on thrashing about so much as the tourists will still come flocking on their cheap holidays. Might be some initial pain but will all revert to normal over the course of a few months.

I'm more interested in what Putin is going to do.

Threaten to bomb IS?

An official in the Egyptian Air traffic control has told local reporters that the last communication with the pilot of the Russian plane was while he was flying at 30 thousand feet. The pilot complained of malfunction in the wireless devices and he asked for an emergency landing at the nearest airport.

Was the plane hi-jacked remotely ?
