crime scene to stage a homicide. gliniewicz committed the ultimate betrayal. i would go out to people with rocks. i was surprised when i read he tried to stab someone. i m like, what. when you check his credit cards, take a look at what he s done with the republican party when he had access. people need know what they re talking about here. announcer: this is-n nd with chris cuomo, alisyn camarota and michaela pereira. good morning, everyone. pointing towards a bomb possibly from isis as the likely cause of last week s metrojet crash in egypt. this is a stunning shift after dismissing the possibility that isis or its affiliate had the means to bring down a plane. but online chatter causing u.s. officials to take a second look. russians are vehemently
east strongly suggesting a bomb could have been on the plane. and isis may have had help inside of sharm el sheikh airport. russia saying it s speculative. and an investigation could take months. david cameron getting set to a meeting with egypt s president this morning. a clarification, apparently when he says death to america he does not mean it literally. ayatollah khomeini telling a group of students, the slogan does not mean death to americans. he said it means death to american policies and arrogance. a suspected gang member has been arrested for allegedly attacking american hero spencer stone. you remember stone? he was one of the guys who helped foil the paris train attack this summer. receiving awards from u.s. and iraq for his courage. stone had to get emergency
it started with british prime minister david cameron announcing that the plane may well have been, quote, downed by an explosive device. three hours officials agree telling cnn it s likely that a bomb brought down the plane. and it was possibly planted by isis or an affiliate. two hours after that, a middle east source confirms that a bomb source is likely. shortly after that, a u.s. official even pointed the finger inside of sharm el sheikh airport suggesting someone there helped get a bomb on the plane. cnn is covering this around the world starting with diplomatic editor nic robertson in russia. with the kremlin issuing the word about the crash. what do you know, snic? reporter: well, alisyn, it s very interesting because they re refusing to bring down the possibility that the plane was brought down by terrorism. but however, going as far as they can to say that all of this information is wrong.
