We shall see where the data leads.

We know the plane had a tail strike.

We know that at least two other commercial airlines had a rear bulkhead failure following a tail strike and inadequate repair.

With a sidebar that if it serves Russia’s proaganda goals, it will be reported as a bomb.

Remember the Maine!

After all, it was a Russian aircraft.

You couldn't get me on one.

We never know until we see what was in Sandy Berger’s socks.
