But then it could also be a terrorist group attempting to start WWIII.

I mean, let's face it, Al Quaida cannot fight the west and win on their own so how can they get someone bigger on their side?

They can't. But hey, if they cause a sh*t storm in the UK, USA (wherever) and attempt to frame another superpower, they won't have to.

It's a tough one but I do think Jim's right in that Russia are not exactly helping to vindicate themselves by insisting that they will investigate alone and not in conjunction with either our own national security services or an independent investigation team.
