ISIS may be behind Russian airliner crash, suggests UK

It is pertinent to mention here that a Russian plane had been downed in Sinai last week and ISIS had claimed that it had caused the plane to crash. They also consider what would happen after ISIS’s destruction.

“I’m a strong supporter of the president”.

“We haven’t had any bombs on any of our planes for that reason”.

Cameron grounded flights to and from the Sinai Peninsula on Thursday.

“I think there’s a possibility that there was a bomb on board”, Obama said in an interview with Dave Ross of CBS News affiliate KIRO in Seattle.

A few are wondering what changes may come if the attack is linked to ISIS. It also is a part of the world in which the USA has significant national interests and one in which we already have invested vast human and monetary resources over decades.

“This is without a doubt a huge blow to the U.S.-led worldwide coalition in Iraq and Syria”, Gardiner said.

He said the current intelligence isn’t definitive enough to say exactly what felled the aircraft and noted that security procedures in place in the region were different than in the United States. In the case of Syria, the USA will have to accept an ambiguous result that may well include the partitioning of the country.

British journalist Piers Morgan has warned United States (US) President Barrack Obama to deal with Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) before it attacks a few USA city with nuclear bombs. However, Russian Federation was quick to dismiss such claims as no evidence has been gathered indicating a bomb attack.

Dmitry Peskov, A spokesman for Russian President Putin, reportedly insisted that aviation investigators were working on all possible theories as to why the Airbus A321-200 crashed Saturday.

“If confirmed, this attack would mark a major shift by the Islamic State and should force us to rethink the threat that the group poses to the world”.

“I … think that ISIS may have concluded that the best way to defeat airport defenses is not to go through them, but to go around them with the help of somebody on the inside”, Schiff said.

Byman explained that ISIS has had a “largely limited in scope”, focusing mainly on “local enemies”.

They also represent a possible turning point in what is now a generational battle against terrorism: ISIS may have made the decision to escalate from military operations aimed at creating a caliphate in Iraq and Syria and inspiring followers to stage isolated terror attacks on the West to attacking soft, civilian targets in mass casualty strikes. While it added that the planes “will conduct combat air patrols in Turkish air space”, there’s also a fair chance they’ll be used to escort USA and allied warplanes attacking ISIS targets inside Syria.

Perhaps most importantly, Byman wrote that if ISIS’ claim that they were responsible for the crash is corroborated, it “would mean the battlefield is expanding”. He further stated that that final investigation would take time.

“Their track record when it comes to these kinds of things – when it comes to the Russians at least – is not very good”, White House spokesman Josh Earnest said Thursday.

There was also an interruption to what is billed as a “continuous carrier presence” in the Asia-Pacific region after the USS George Washington left in July and its replacement did not get there until the fall.

“I have said before, and I really believe it, we will fight then now, or we will fight them later, it’s only a question of time”, Feinstein said.
