Did ISIS Shoot Down Russian Jet?

[SkyRider]

ISIS claimed they shot down a Russian civilian airliner killing over 200 Russians. If true, this is really not nice.

Whether they did or not it doesn't matter. Now Putin has a reason to bring more troops.

Doubt they had the weapons to shoot it down, but maybe a bomb. Who knows what weapons they stole from the yellow bellied Iraqi army.

This plane was flying over a war zone, just like that Malayan airliner. Why do civilian airliners fly over war zones?

Any weapons left over from old CIA alliances?

Thank you, Btw this is the way of US.

Yes but not to defend their sinister acts, sometimes you take chances when you make a deal with the devil, and then it bites you back in the ass. Foreign policy is a tricky thing.

With U.S. boots on the ground ('advisors' he he) now, I'm wondering about any confrontations with Russian forces.

What happens when the Russian bomb on of the US back terrorist groups and kill some special forces? I wonder if the Americans will flip out or stay quiet. I am waiting for the Russians to gain enough ground so they can close Syrian airspace, that should not take to long. All the have to do is fly in a could of S400 sets and sign the paperwork with the Syrian govt and viola. Fly in Syria at your own risk.

The Russians are bullies but not stupid, you take a shot at a US aircraft at your own peril, they are not that stupid. Those S 400 sets would be dust in days if that happened.

I had to quickly look up S 400. So it's a SAM?

Hmmmm. Is this going to be Cold War deja vu?

 

[onthebottom]

With what, the Russians had to give the Ukranian invaders the tools to do this, where would ISIS get this kind of HW?

I'm wondering if the Russians shot down one of their own planes, accidentally....

It is cold war, don't you get it ??? And you know what, its about time. Sort of buts the US (Bullies) at a stand-off.

They shoot down a US jet it won't be cold for long.

You mention 'dust' and this, but we won't see the use of nukes in our lifetime if that's what you mean (hopefully not, unless it's by some wacko terrorists).

No, of course not, dozens of cruise misses perhaps, stealth bombers, but no nukes.

I do not think Putin wants too many Russian deaths.
He is a bully ,but not stupid.
One thing is for sure, isis just made a nasty enemy.
Now lets play Russian whack-a -mole.

I'm wondering if he did it on purpose....

 

[Frankfooter]

The jet was at 30,000 ft when it came down, I just read.
That should make it out the range of anything ISIS has.

they would be syrian... hard to say if they would be dust.....not sure.

I think this is either a bomb, or a repair that was not properly done from a tailstrike in 2001. The plane broke up in mid air...
