Russia dismisses the idea that it was a bomb yet says it is bout to unleash the forces of hell on ISIS in retaliation. Are they assuming a missile? an American supplied (advertently or inadvertently) missile?
Russia did not dismiss the idea that it was a bomb. They said they are considering every possibility in their investigation.
Russia has always been poised to unleash hell on ISIS as its battle plan progressed from western Syria to central and Eastern Syria
They have been doing an effective job
But now
The difference here is that using this downed Russian airliner, Cameron and obama have coordinated their talking points to join the battle, ( without Russian coordination) now having an excuse of “ intelligence” indicating that “ ISIS” is a direct threat to US and UK national security ... And less than 48 hours after obama announced plans to put boots in the ground. What timing.
Putin is not buying wha they are selling for obvious reasons.
The Egyptian economy and international perceptions of its security are convenient collateral damage.
