I figured it was terrorism when i first heard about this, two Russian planes going down at the same time, with no known reason for either at the time of the crash, its a shame people suicide themselves to do this. Hopefully Russia will see what can happen via terrorism and help us more in the war versus terror.

If this happens to be Chechnya, expect some swift retaliation from the Russians.

"board the Russian flight bound for Volgograd which crashed Tuesday night near Tulin were five members of the Russian Jewish Communities Federation.
Russian security heads believe al Qaeda behind crash of two Russian Siberian Airways planes after takeoff from Moscow Tuesday night. Both pilots sent hijack signals before their planes disappeared off radar screens killing all 89 people aboard.
Russian airports and air force on emergency alert. Two black boxes found at crash sites south of Moscow - near Bushelaki 180 km S. of Moscow in Tula region and near Rostov-on-Don. They were bound for Volgograd and Black Sea resort of Sochi, where Putin on holiday. The second plane exploded and broke up in mid-air. Terror attack connected with Sunday’s presidential elections in Chechnya."

They have said that they played no part in the crashes. Al queda's name has come up. If in fact it was a muslim group that did this I am interested in how Russia feels about Iraq and such now. Meaning, will they help us finish up in Iraq on a strong note with aid and soldiers to get them back on their feet even faster.
