Russian plane crash: Isis-linked Turkish group Grey Wolves 'may have downed'

[Biitcoin]

Turkish radical militants loyal to Isis (Daesh) may have been behind the crash of the Russian airliner brought down by a bomb over Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, it has been reported. An anonymous Russian secret service source said that the FSB believes the radical Turkish Grey Wolves may have been behind what was the largest civil aviation disaster in Russian history.

I'm the only one who can see Putin nuking Turkey right now ? (maybe not because of this but ... well)

He'll certainly be considering some kind of retaliation now that he knows it happened right under Turkey's nose, plus they're actually being dumb enough to threaten him over violating airspace when they had already shot down one of his jets.

It is already very expensive for the Turks...

1,300 hotels in Turkish resorts up for sale amid tourism woes

January 31, 2016, Sunday/ 18:17:59/ ŞABAN GÜNDÜZ | IZMIR

As many as 1,318 hotels have been put up for sale along the Aegean and Mediterranean coasts after Russian sanctions along with security concerns hit Turkey's tourism industry hard.
The Mediterranean resort of Antalya has the highest number of tourism facilities -- 410 -- that are listed for sale, followed by the provinces of Muğla, which has 349 for sale; İzmir, 203; Aydın, 162; Balıkesir, 139; Çanakkale, 35 and Denizli, which has 20 in total listed.

The total sale price of the 410 hotels in Antalya amounts to TL 30 billion, while the remaining 908 have sale prices of a total of TL 8.8 billion.
Denizli Colossae Thermal Chairman Abdurrahman Karamanlıoğlu said a number of hotels in resort towns were left on the brink of bankruptcy after Russia imposed sanctions against Turkey after the latter downed a Russian warplane in November last year.

“We talk the realities but officials put a brave face on the issue. We have been heavily affected from the jet crisis. Especially the hotels in Antalya; being closed for the last four months, most of those are on the verge of bankruptcy,” Karamanlıoğlu said.

Nearly two months after Russia advised its citizens to cancel their visits to Turkey, an Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) militant blew up himself and 10 tourists; most of whom were German, in central İstanbul earlier this month, adding more turmoil to an already stagnant industry.
Russians and Germans represented the two largest groups of nationalities that visited Turkey in 2014. Turkey's tourism revenues fell 8.3 percent to $31.46 billion in 2015.

As ISIS is defeated in Syria and Iraq they will retreat to Turkey (where else to go?) it´ll probably be very unhealthy for tourism there and general stability of the state. Also the Kurds are finding good friends these days no doubt.
