Can you believe that it has already been four months since Malaysia Flight MH17 was shot down in the eastern edge of Ukraine? Even more shocking is the fact that Dutch investigators were just finally allowed to begin picking up the large debris field yesterday, Nov. 16! It is widely believed that pro-Russian rebels shot the passenger plane down, killing all 283 people on board, because they mistakenly believed it was a Ukrainian plane. Dutch investigators have had to fight to get anywhere near the wreckage up until now because of intense, ongoing fighting in the area.At the same time, we are learning that there is now realistic hope for solving the official investigation that has been opened up by officials from the Netherlands: New video has surfaced of the smoldering plane moments after it crashed. The Associated Press released the footage, which shows local villagers running toward the smoking debris, asking if the pilot had been found. Apparently the rebels will attempt to locate and kidnap a pilot after downing an aircraft or jet. Clearly, from this horrific footage, any survival was impossible. -
Security Increased at 9,500 Federal Buildings as Government Fears Random, Lone Terrorist Attacks
Several recent events have prompted the U.S. Department of Homeland Security to decide to tighten security at more than 9,500 facilities across the country that are used by 1.4 million visitors each day. The heightened security is no doubt directly related to the lone gunman, Michael Zehaf-Bibeau, who managed to storm into Canada's Parliament last week shortly after killing Nathan Cirillo, a solider guarding Ottawa's National War Memorial. That incident, plus ISIS, continuously calling for lone-wolf jihad missions certainly has made the U.S. reconsider just how well-protected we all are.
