CNN is reporting that a source close to the U.S Intelligence community believes the terrorist group, ISIS had something to do with the recent crash of Russia’s Metrojet Flight 9268 over the Sinai Peninsula, a crash that killed 224 passengers.
According to CNN’s reporting, the source said, “there is a definite feeling it was an explosive device planted in the luggage or somewhere on the plane.”

So based on the flight recordings from the Germanwings airplane that crashed a few days ago killing all 150 people onboard, it is now being determined that the co-pilot deliberately locked the pilot out of the cockpit and crashed the plane. This is leading many to ask why? Why would the co-pilot do something so hideous?
Well, according to Pat Robertson, the reason could be that the co-pilot was a Muslim. Of course! He killed a lot of people, so… there!
“What happened to that plane that crashed into the French Alps?” Robertson asked on Thursday’s edition of The 700 Club. “Well, they’ve begun to find out. The pilot went to the lavatory and was soon locked out of the cockpit. He pounded on the door, begging to come in. But the door was not opened.”
“The co-pilot then takes the plane, pushes it into a dive and crashes it. The passengers are screaming as the plane went down. The pilot is yelling.”
“What a terrible tragedy,” the TV preacher continued. “Was that co-pilot a Muslim? Was he suicidal? What was it about him?”
The dramatic Dash cam video shows the last moments of a TransAsia Airways ATR-72 plane that took off from Songshan Airport in New Taipei City. At least 23 people are reported dead, 15 injured and another 20 people missing. The plane carried a total of 58 passengers.
“Mayday Mayday engine flameout” is reportedly the last correspondence from the flight crew, and “insufficient propeller force” is believed to be the cause of the crash. The plane’s black boxes have been recovered.
NBC News is reporting that internationally known minister and motivational speaker Myles Munroe, his wife and several other people, were killed when their crashed in the Bahamas on Sunday. Munroe’s ministry confirmed the news Sunday night and the Bahamian aviation ministry also confirmed that there were “some fatalities” among the nine people on board.
Dave Burrows, head of youth ministries for Munroe’s non-denominational Bahamas Faith Ministries International, said at a hastily convened news conference Sunday night that Munroe’s wife, Ruth — also a widely known figure in international evangelical circles — and the ministry’s senior vice president and pastor, Richard Pinder, were among those killed in the crash.
The Department of Civil Aviation said the Learjet 36 crashed at 5:10 p.m. ET while making a landing approach at Grand Bahama International Airport. Burrows said a small number of other people were on board the plane, along with two pilots, none of whom were immediately identified.
Munroe, 60, was an internationally known Christian preacher and motivational speaker. He frequently appeared before mass audiences at Christian events with other widely known preachers, like Bishop T.D. Jakes and Bishop Eddie Long, and he was associated during the early 2000s with the Promise Keepers movement, a Christian ministry focused on strengthening the role of men in Christian life. He wrote or co-wrote more than 100 inspirational and motivational books, many of which were best-sellers in the Caribbean and Africa.
Video footage from the helmet of a rescuer on a plane crash in San Francisco last year appears to show emergency teams failing to assist a teenaged survivor, moments before she was accidentally run over by a fire truck.
Three passengers died when Asiana Airlines Flight 214 clipped a seawall with its landing gear, skidded off the runway and burst into flames at the end of an otherwise routine flight from Seoul to San Francisco on July 6.
One of the victims, Ye Mengyuan, 16, had been pulled alive from the plane and placed near one wing.
But the Chinese teenager was later run over and killed by a fire truck, which did not spot her lying under a layer of fire retardant foam. US prosecutors decided in October not to bring charges against the firefighter driving the truck.
CBS on Thursday broadcast segments of the video, allegedly obtained by a person close to the family of the victim.
